Rosehip is a highly beneficial herb for horses, traditionally used to support overall health and recovery from various ailments. It is a rich, natural source of vitamin C and other essential nutrients, including calcium, magnesium, silica, phosphorus, copper, bioflavonoids (such as rutin), carotenoids, and tannins—all of which are easily absorbed by the equine digestive system.
In horses, rosehip is commonly used to help strengthen the immune system, support joint health, combat free radicals, and promote healthy circulation. It may also assist with digestion, provide mild pain relief, and support kidney and bladder function. Rosehip has natural aperient properties to encourage healthy bowel movements, gentle astringent qualities to tone mucous membranes and tissues, and anti-diarrhoeal actions, making it a versatile addition to many equine diets for overall wellness and vitality.
