About Standard Process Equine Immune Support

Training, competition, travel, environmental factors, and lack of turnout combined with age, diet, and stress level may present challenges to the immune system in any season. Some horses may react to those challenges by exhibiting subtle or not-so-subtle changes in behavior, depending on the temperament, personality, and or management of the animal.

Equine Immune Support encourages and supports the innate and adaptive immune response that is necessary for the health, performance, and stamina of the horse. The formula includes an array of ingredients derived from functional foods that may support:*

  • Immune-cell signaling
  • Antioxidant activities
  • Cell integrity*

Feeding Tips

  • Start slowly by mixing a small amount of powder into the feed.
  • Add the powder to the feed and dampen with water. (Spray bottles can be helpful.) Shake the container to mix the powder with the feed. This will also prevent the powder from settling in the bottom of the feeding container.

What our patients say:

review icon

My mare was suffering from sweet itch. The bugs were really causing a poor immune response. I started her on SP and within 2 weeks she was itch free. This mare was extremely sensitive to touch with itch and it's now gone. I did miss a month due to not wanting to spend the money. That was a bad move! She started to itch again. I bought more SP and within 2 weeks she was itch free again. I love SP! I also use it for myself and my family. It's our first go to for just about everything. Bringing the body back to baseline in humans and animals.
