Fight the Worms 1 – herbal blend for a varied horse diet

Fight the Worms 1 is a 100% natural, versatile herbal blend that brings aromatic herbs, roots, and seeds to the horse's diet. The blend is based on plants that have been traditionally used as part of traditional herbal feeding for horses.

Horses graze in nature close to the ground, where they naturally encounter various environmental micro-organisms. Therefore, in modern horse management, the parasite status of horses is regularly monitored, for example through faecal samples. Veterinary antiparasitic medications are used when necessary.

Modern parasite management is based on targeted monitoring and veterinary assessment. This means that the medication needs of horses are evaluated individually based on factors such as age, environmental infection pressure, and faecal sample results. At the same time, attention is also paid to pasture rotation, paddock cleanliness, and the overall diet.

At many yards, herbal blends are used as part of a varied diet, particularly on a periodic basis. Herbal feeding brings plant-based diversity and compounds naturally found in plants to the diet.

Horse digestion and plant-based feeding

Horse digestion is largely based on microbial activity in the large intestine. The large intestine is home to a large number of microbes that break down plant fibre and participate in nutrient processing as part of the horse's normal digestion.

In plant-based feeding, various seeds, roots, and herbs bring plant fibre as well as compounds naturally found in plants to the diet, such as polyphenols, bitter compounds, and aromatic compounds. Many traditional herbal blends contain precisely these kinds of plants.
