Frequently Asked Questions
What product is suggested for horses that have nasal bleeding?
Equilite's Bleeders Blend was designed to help strengthen the lung tissue and thereby help to reduce the chances of bleeding by acting as a lung tonic. And another product that can be used with Bleeders Blend is Yunnan Payaio, a Chinese herbal blend used the day of racing/competition or a few days before.
What products are suggested for race or eventing horses?
In addition to Equilite's Bleeders Blend, try Equilite's Garli+C for overall immune and general health, and Equilite's Equinacea for any allergy type symptoms.
Are your products tested at all?
Yes, multiple times. Each raw ingredient arrives at the manufacturing facility with a Certificate of Analysis. The raw materials are then tested upon arrival to see if there has been any contamination during transport. The raw materials are then blended and once again tested for various types of bacteria or pathogens that could have contaminated the product.
My horse is a finicky eater. Are your products palatable?
Equilite's products contain only herbs, no fillers. We do not add sugars or sweeteners. We rely on the taste of the best quality herbs. If a blend has an unpalatable taste then we will add herbs like Chamomile that have a sweet apple like taste to it. If your horse is a finicky eater, we suggest trying shredded carrots or apples, perhaps even an unsweetened applesauce for flavoring. We recommend staying away from sugar products like molasses.
Which herbal blend should I be giving a horse that doesn't have any known problems?
It is important to make sure that a horse's intestinal integrity is functioning, so we recommend supporting the body with Pre & Probiotics and digestive enzymes as a basic foundation, since horses are continually being barraged with wormers and medications that can leach the good bacteria from their gut. It is also important to make sure that minerals are an important part of your horse's diet. Today our soils are depleted as a result of air and water pollution, so our horses may not be getting proper nutrients. Most chronic deficiencies and ailments are a result of mineral deficiencies. It is important to make sure that a good portion of their minerals are coming from plant based sources. Most minerals come from rock or synthetic sources that may be more difficult for a horse's body to process, absorb and utilize. Since horses are herbivores their internal structure is created to process and utilize plant-based foods.
What makes your herbal blends better than others on the market?
Equilite takes great pride in formulating blends that are carefully developed and balanced with the horse's overall health in mind. Since domestication horses have been thrown off balance from their normal routine and diet. When horses are not able to graze on pasture because of traveling, being shown, etc., they are in need of natural plants of various types in their diet. Equilite uses only the best human grade quality ingredients without adding unnecessary fillers. You are paying for the highest quality herbs, and because you are getting a straight blend of herbs you do not have to use as much.
