Equine Liver & Kidney Recovery Protocol
The Equine Liver & Kidney Recovery Protocol is a two-phase, whole-systems program designed to support detoxification, tissue repair, and metabolic recovery of the liver and kidneys in horses that have experienced significant physiological burden. This protocol is intended for horses that have been “bogged down” by repeated medical interventions, medications, anesthesia, chronic stress, or long-term metabolic strain — not as a daily wellness blend, but as a targeted recovery process.
The liver and kidneys are deeply interconnected organs, working together to process metabolic waste, medications, environmental toxins, and byproducts of normal physiological function. The liver converts nitrogenous waste into urea, which is then transported through the bloodstream to the kidneys for filtration and excretion. When this system becomes overwhelmed, the body often compensates in less efficient ways, leading to systemic congestion, immune stress, digestive imbalance, and reduced overall vitality.
Rather than aggressively forcing detoxification, Wholehearted Harmony approaches liver and kidney recovery through intentional sequencing. This protocol is designed to first support gentle mobilization and clearance of accumulated burden, then shift into a longer phase of repair, nourishment, and stabilization. By respecting the timing and capacity of these organs, the body is better able to eliminate waste without overwhelming elimination pathways or creating rebound congestion.
Rooted in a species-appropriate, forage-first framework, the Equine Liver & Kidney Recovery Protocol works with the horse’s natural biology rather than overriding it. The selected herbs support liver enzyme activity, bile flow, kidney and urinary function, lymphatic movement, gut protection, and immune resilience — all while providing nutritional and mineral support that is often depleted during periods of chronic stress or medical intervention.
This protocol is especially appropriate for horses recovering from extensive dental procedures, surgeries, long-term medication use, or other situations where metabolic and detoxification systems have been heavily taxed. It may also be used periodically, under appropriate guidance, as a structured recovery program for horses showing signs of systemic congestion or reduced metabolic efficiency.
The Equine Liver & Kidney Recovery Protocol is intentionally phased, time-bound, and supportive in nature. It is not designed for continuous use, and it is not intended to replace veterinary care or diagnostics. Instead, it serves as a complementary, whole-systems approach to restoring balance, resilience, and function to the organs responsible for filtration, detoxification, and long-term metabolic health.
Feeding & Use Notes
This is a two-phase recovery protocol, not a daily maintenance blend
Best used alongside a forage-based, species-appropriate diet
Feeding amounts are based on the average 1,000 lb horse
Individual needs may vary depending on health history and level of metabolic burden
Consultation is encouraged to ensure this protocol is appropriate for your horse and to determine optimal timing and repetition.
