Horses’ lungs are subjected to an ongoing respiratory challenge from fungal spores, dust, pollen and other tiny particles in their immediate environment, whether they are stabled or out at pasture, working and competing outdoors, or in an enclosed indoor school. Most horses cope with these challenges, but there are occasions when a healthy respiratory system is overwhelmed by these tiny particles, which can irritate the sensitive lining or mucosa of the respiratory tract, including the lungs, and horses cough to try to clear their airways. Targeted nutritional support can help support the horse’s natural defences against such challenges, and Coff-Less Powder contains a powerful blend of natural herbs and phytochemicals (active compounds from plants), known for their role in maintaining respiratory function. Coff-Less also contains Echinacea and MSM to help support the immune system. What are the benefits of Coff-Less Powder? Eucalyptus oil is well known for its ability to help clear the respiratory tract of a build-up of mucus caused by exposure to dust, fungal spores, pollen and other small particulate matter. Peppermint and its active ingredient Menthol, have been used for centuries to help open the airways and clear excess mucus. Many of the natural compounds found in peppermint oil will provide nutritional support to help the horse’s own respiratory defences. Nettle, Fenugreek and Astragalus are all thought to help support the respiratory system and lung health. Garlic and MSM help support a the horse’s own anti-inflammatory response, and maintain healthy airways. Aloe vera, marshmallow and glycerine help to soothe the airways. Echinacea and Apple Cider Vinegar help to support the immune system. Kelp and seaweed provide a natural source of many key micronutrients to support general health and wellbeing.
