Echinacea

Nature’s Traditional Immune Support

 A robust immune system is your animal's first line of defence against illness. Echinacea is one of the world's most researched and respected herbs. Specifically, the Echinacea pallida species has been traditionally used for centuries. It works to support the body's natural resilience against seasonal challenges.

We provide 100% pure, dried Echinacea. You can ensure your horse or dog receives the full spectrum of natural compounds without fillers or additives.

How It Is Believed to Work

Echinacea is unique because it acts as a non-specific immune stimulant. It is thought to support the activity of macrophages. These are the "effector cells" of the immune system that identify and engulf foreign invaders. Echinacea is believed to help the body maintain its own health. It does this by helping to stimulate these cells and support the production of interferon. This is rather than fighting a specific virus directly.  

When to Feed Echinacea

• Respiratory Health: It is widely used to support stabled horses or those prone to dust sensitivities. Echinacea helps to maintain clear, healthy airways.
• Seasonal Defence: An essential "winter warmer" supplement. It's often fed to support the immune system during colder months. This is when animals are more susceptible to being run-down or catching colds and flu.
• Recovery and Vitality: Many owners feed Echinacea to animals recovering from illness or fatigue. This helps to restore natural vitality and condition.
