Equine Anti-parasitic Support
Equine Anti-Parasitic Support is a thoughtfully formulated, whole-systems blend designed to support the horse’s natural ability to manage internal parasites while strengthening the foundational systems that influence parasite resilience. Rather than targeting parasites in isolation, this formula works by supporting gut integrity, immune function, metabolic balance, and elimination pathways — the very systems that determine whether parasites are able to thrive in the first place.
This mild yet effective blend incorporates both chopped and powdered herbs to provide broad, layered support. Select herbs help create an internal environment that is unfavorable to parasitic overgrowth, while others assist the body in safely mobilizing, neutralizing, and expelling parasites through normal digestive and detoxification processes. At the same time, immune and digestive tissues are supported to reduce irritation, inflammation, and vulnerability during and after parasite challenges.
At Wholehearted Harmony, we recognize that parasite burden is rarely a standalone issue. Recurrent or persistent parasite problems are often linked to compromised gut health, weakened immune tone, poor mineral balance, metabolic stress, or long-term reliance on chemical dewormers that disrupt the microbiome and contribute to resistance. This blend is designed to support the horse holistically, helping restore balance rather than forcing eradication through harsh interventions.
By nourishing the gut and immune system alongside targeted anti-parasitic support, this formula helps the horse rebuild resilience over time — supporting healthier digestion, improved nutrient absorption, and a more responsive immune system. The goal is not only parasite reduction, but long-term regulation and improved overall vitality.
Important Note:
This blend is not suitable for use during pregnancy.Who This Blend Is For
Horses with known or suspected parasite challenges
Horses transitioning away from chemical deworming protocols
Horses with recurring parasite issues linked to gut or immune imbalance
Owners seeking a gentle, whole-horse approach to parasite management
How This Blend Fits Into a Whole-Horse Plan
Equine Anti-Parasitic Support may be used alone in straightforward cases, but parasite patterns often reflect deeper systemic imbalances. In some situations, pairing this blend with digestive, immune, or nutritional support — or moving into a custom formulation — may be more appropriate to avoid redundancy and better address root causes. Consultation is encouraged when parasite issues are chronic, severe, or recurring.

Reviews
I am a natural equine hoof/horse care provider. Many of our clients have problems giving traditional wormer to their horses. My wife and I are true believers in holistic practices. One particular client has a horse that refuses to take wormer paste to the point of it being dangerous. We suggested using Wholehearted Harmony's parasite control (along with some other blends) and the problem was solved. The horse gladly consumes this blend and the others.
My 2 horses have been on herbal wormers for some time. I switched to Wholehearted Harmony 3 months ago. This one works even better than the previous company I used. The previous one would have low level of eggs present. This time we didn't have any!
Dropped off a fecal sample for both my horses prior to starting a 3 month run of the dewormer. My gelding came back negative for strongyles and my mare popped positive for strongyles. Dewormed per the moon schedule and appropriate dosage for weights for 3 months and then dropped off new fecal samples. Second sample came back negative strongyles for my mare. Love that there were no added chemicals and the herbs work ❤️
I love that there is a healthy alternative to the anti-parasitic medication that I used to buy over the counter. Debbie worked specifically with me on getting my horse to actually eat it as we discovered that he doesn't like clove. She was able to adjust the blend to suit his needs and now he eats it eagerly every month!
