Ok so poor horse is under the weather with a low white cell count.

Do any of the immune booster supplements out there actually work?

I have seen loads with echinacea, but as that doesn't seem to work on me I don't really think its likely to do much for a horse!

I have been looking at Natural Dynamics Immune system formula & NAF immunforte powder- has anyone used them?
 
the company who do the think fly products are in the process of sorceing horses with immune problems for a new product i think the company is called brimblecombe bros i know they have an office in exeter livstock market i had a email from the but unfortunatly ive deleated and dont no how to retreve it hope this helps
 
I used Aloe vera juice from holland and barrat. Imust admit to being a none believer in herbal medicine before trying this. My vet told me that as he would not touch the stuff he gave him for a virus this was the next best thing, and it worked wonders
 
I've used echinacea with good results on horses, one horse had very serious condition. Also works very well when I use it.

I am aware that it doesn't work with some people and can actually make the symptoms worse. So I think it's a case that it works on some and not others.
 
Equine Gold from Biotol is fab. If you google it, you should find a fairly detailed explaination about it.
