CLEANSING & DETOX
Clearing out the organs and systems responsible for elimination and nutrient assimilation ensures that all metabolic processes are active and that your horse is in optimal condition. It's an often overlooked thing or not considered as a problem until a problem shows up with our horses.
CLEANSE TO IMPROVE ORGAN FUNCTIONS
A lot of "problems" can be caused when the body isn't functioning the way it is supposed to be working. Support the organs and you strengthen the whole system. Cleanse the lungs, liver, kidneys and the GI (gastro-intestinal) tract. They are responsible to process things to eliminate in order to support overall health, movement, and performance.
Kidneys: The kidneys assist the body's major pathways for the breakdown and excretion of waste in the body and help to keep the electrolyte balances in check. Consider EQUINE KIDNEY FLUSH® for the most common urinary issues that you may see:
thick/dark urine - frequent urination - dirty/swollen sheath - low-back tenderness - stocking up.
Liver: The liver’s natural function is to filter toxins (chemicals, drug residues, etc.) to begin the process of flushing them from the body through the blood and urine. Consider EQUINE LIVER FLUSH® for the most common liver issues that you may see:
skin and coat problems - hormonal imbalances - allergies - poor immune system.
Lungs: The lungs major function is to bring oxygen to the body and especially helps with normal recovery after strenuous activity. Consider EQUINE LUNG FLUSH® for the most common lung issues that you may see:
troubled breathing - poor performance/recovery - low energy/stamina - coughing, COPD, or heaves.
Another option to consider is a 4-in-1 combination - HealthyHorse™ - can be used as a blood and organ cleansing program to support normal liver and lung functions and to support the immune system.
GI system: The major function of the GI system is nutrient absorption and the elimination of all the wastes that have been processed through the liver, lungs, and kidneys. This function may be "stressed" by the presence of parasites. Consider PARA-X™ (non chemical cleanser) for the most common GI issues related to parasites that you may see:
difficult weight gain/weight loss - poor haircoat & energy levels - gas, bloating, diarrhea/constipation - poor immune system
Other symptoms that may show that you may need a good organ/GI cleansing are:
allergic reactions - sparse mane & tail - dull eyes - mood changes - recurrent colic - hooves with rings/ridges - poor performance

These products are safe to use at all times, but we do suggest to use them a couple of hours away from dosing medications (to allow the meds to do their job, effectively).
