In old times bran was thought to be a laxative for horses because it worked for humans. However recent research shows that bran does not contain enough fiber to really act as a laxative and can cause calcium / phosphorus imbalances. So if a horse is experiencing loose stools it would be better not to give bran. You should contact a equine veterinarian to ask about the cause of the loose stool. Once you know what is causing it, you can treat the cause directly.
