Case Studies: Omega 3's for Horses in the Spring

About this episode

Dr. Nicole Rambo and Heather discuss the benefits of omega 3 supplementation for horses during spring.

Dr. Nicole Rambo and equine specialist Heather cover common spring issues (dull coats, shedding, sweet itch, allergies, and inflammation) and how omega support can help. Fresh grass provides omegas, but levels drop in hay, making supplementation useful. They compare Omega Plus Oil (for calories, skin, and coat) with DHA pellets (for direct anti-inflammatory support). Dr. Rambo mentions recommendations vary by case, including sweet itch, poor-quality forage, breeding stallions, and respiratory concerns but to reach out to the Tribute team for any questions.
