As inflammation and its damaging effects continue to be a growing concern for horse owners and veterinarians alike, we struggle with the fact that we know anti-inflammatory drugs can cause serious side effects for the animals that we love. Fortunately, a major breakthrough in nutriceutical science has occurred.Elara Nutriceuticals has created Växamine EQ™, the world’s foremost all-natural, botanical COX-2 & 5-LOX inhibitor for horses. The Växamine EQ™ technology is so unique and effective that it has been awarded a U.S. patent and has two more pending. Now there is a highly effective, clinically proven all natural alternative to equine anti-inflammatory drugs.If your horse is suffering with an inflammatory condition than Växamine EQ™ may be just what they need to be pain free and maintain an active lifestyle. Here are a few of the many conditions that can benefit from Växamine EQ™:
ParaNexTM Prevention (aka ParaNex-P) is a proprietary blend of naturally derived compounds and botanical extracts that are approved as GRAS and DSHEA as recognized by the FDA. Through the utilization of unique proprietary nano-technology ParaNexTM Prevention has been specifically formulated to aid in the prevention of Equine Protozoal Myeloencephalitis (EPM).ParaNexTM Prevention is NOT a drug, but is a synergistic formulation of highly effective botanical extracts and other natural compounds that have been shown to provide anti-microbial properties and support for a healthy nervous system. ParaNexTM Prevention has been designed in such a way that it is completely safe for your animal yet creates an internal environment that is inhospitable to the infecting organism, thereby reducing or eliminating the threat of contracting EPM.
Any horse that eats hay, grain, or grazes in a pasture is susceptible to getting EPM. EPM is caused by a protozoan (parasite) which is carried by opossums. Opossum feces can contaminate hay and grain out in the field or hay bales stored in sheds. The protozoan responsible for EPM gets mixed with the hay or grain and is then ingested by the horse. Once the protozoan reaches the gut it can then enter the bloodstream and eventually get into the brain stem. Once in the brain stem, inflammation (myelitis) occurs causing poor coordination, muscle loss, loss of appetite, or simply a loss of performance level.
EPM is a degenerating neurological disease that is currently running rampant in the United States and Canada. In recent years the number of EPM cases has grown exponentially. According to some experts, EPM is now the most concerning protozoal disease affecting the equine community. Even though EPM is treatable and there are several approved drugs for such treatment there is no assurance that your horse will ever completely recover or in some cases respond to the treatment at all. Not to mention that the current treatment plans are very expensive costing upwards of $1500 or more. We believe in the old proverb, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” Henry de Bracton.
ParaNexTM Prevention is a natural anti-microbial that works to inhibit the normal life-cycle of the protozoan that has been found to cause EPM. By doing so, ParaNexTM Prevention aids the horse’s own immune system in its ability to fight off and expel foreign invaders.How Safe is ParaNexTM Prevention,ParaNexTM Prevention is not a drug and is very safe. This product can be used on all classes of horses (pregnant mares, stallions, weanlings, and competitive horses). According to the USEF, The United States Equine Federation, the national governing body for equestrian sport, ParaNex-P contains no banned components. If you show, jump, race, or other you can be assured this product will have no negative effect on performance.
How Long Can I keep My Horse on ParaNex-PYou can feed ParaNexTM Prevention for as long as you feel there is a danger of your horse consuming the protozoa that causes EPM. This formula can be safely fed for an indefinite period of time. The benefits of ParaNexTM Prevention will not continue once you stop using the product.Add 1/2 oz. of ParaNex PreventionTM twice daily to feed. You may also dose directly into the mouth if you desire. ParaNex Prevention is very palatable with a mild maple flavor.
