One of the many symptoms of Cushing's is reduced levels of dopamine, which impacts pituitary function and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, often leading to increased cortisol levels.
The recognised pharma drug, Prascend, is designed to improve dopamine levels, but it doesn't suit all horses. Our two proprietary Cushings blends are formulated to cover both options, whether your horse is taking, or not taking Prascend.
🌿 Endocrine support: Helps maintain the balance and function of the endocrine system.
🌿 Adrenaline and cortisol production: Assists in stabilising adrenaline and cortisol levels.
🌿 Vitality and wellbeing: Addresses symptoms such as lethargy, stress, poor appetite, and muscle tone loss.
🌿 Dopamine production: Supports natural dopamine production, essential for pituitary health.
🌿 Overall health: May help with coat shedding and thirst/urination regulation.

Cushing’s disease, also known as PPID (Pituitary Pars Intermedia Dysfunction), occurs due to changes in the pituitary gland, which plays a vital role in the endocrine system. Often, this leads to an imbalance in hormone production, particularly adrenaline and cortisol, which can disrupt your horse’s overall health and comfort.
Our two Cushings' blends are carefully formulated to help manage these challenges naturally. With adaptogenic herbs and nutrient-dense ingredients, this blend supports the body’s ability to regulate hormone production, promote dopamine levels, and maintain a healthier metabolism.
If your horse is showing symptoms such as increased thirst, excessive coat growth, or changes in energy levels, our two Cushings' blends provide targeted nutritional support for their overall wellbeing.
