Natural immune support for horses and ponies.
Echinacea provides optimal support for the immune system, the ideal herb for older horses or those who have been a little run-down. Echinacea is also thought to be beneficial for the digestive and respiratory systems.
Echinacea was traditionally used by native Americans for a variety of health reasons such as digestive distress and respiratory health. Echinacea is well-known for its immunosupportive properties and can benefit many horses, especially those in more challenging situations, or horses going through management changes.
