Spirulina is a nutritionally dense blue-green algae that is used as an equine supplement to support horses with immune or respiratory needs.
Spirulina refers to dried algae, or cyanobacteria, harvested from lakes in Africa, Mexico and China. Fed in the form of a concentrated green powder, it is a rich source of bioactive proteins, fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals.
Spirulina powder consists mainly of the cyanobacteria Arthrospira platensis and Arthrospira maxima. The active ingredients include unique antioxidant proteins and anti-inflammatory fatty acids.
Spirulina has many health benefits for horses including promoting weight loss and improving metabolic health in horses with equine metabolic syndrome (EMS). It is also recommended for horses susceptible to recurrent breathing issues like allergies, heaves, and inflammatory airway disease.
It is considered a complete protein because it supplies all essential amino acids required in the equine diet. Essential amino acids are those protein molecules that horses cannot synthesize independently and must obtain from the diet.
In this podcast, we discuss nine, scientifically-backed benefits of spirulina for horses.
