Support immunity with a balanced diet, plenty of good forage, turnout and movement, low stress, clean air and water, and a sensible worming and vaccination plan. Health comes from consistent good care, not a single product.
Feed for health
A balanced diet is the foundation of a healthy immune system. Plenty of good forage, quality protein, and the right vitamins and minerals give the body what it needs to defend itself. Where the diet is short, a supplement fills the gaps.
Turnout, movement and rest
Horses are healthiest with plenty of turnout, movement and the company of other horses, which supports both physical and mental wellbeing. Adequate rest matters too, since an exhausted, over-worked horse is more prone to illness.
Reduce stress
Chronic stress, from isolation, boredom, travel or an unsettled routine, wears down a horse’s resilience. A calm, consistent routine, company, and enough forage and turnout all lower stress and help the immune system function well.
Clean air and water
Dusty stables and dirty water tax the body. Provide good ventilation, low-dust forage and clean water at all times. Healthy lungs and good hydration support the whole horse and reduce the burden on its defences.
Stay on top of preventive care
A sensible worming plan based on testing, up-to-date vaccinations, and regular dental and hoof care all keep a horse healthy and better able to resist disease. Consistent, sensible management, not a miracle supplement, is what builds a resilient horse.
