Equine Senior Core Essentials Support, Organic/Kosher
Equine Senior Core Essentials
Equine Senior Core Essentials is a comprehensive, whole-systems herbal formulation designed to support aging horses through the physiological changes that naturally occur with time. Rather than isolating individual concerns such as joints, digestion, or immunity, this blend was intentionally reformulated to support the core systems that determine longevity, comfort, and quality of life in the senior horse.
As horses age, the immune system, digestive efficiency, circulation, lymphatic movement, inflammatory regulation, and connective tissue repair all become less adaptable. These shifts can show up as stiffness, slower recovery, digestive changes, immune vulnerability, weight maintenance challenges, or reduced overall vitality. Equine Senior Core Essentials addresses these changes by supporting the foundational systems that allow the body to adapt, regulate, and repair.
This blend supports immune resilience, cardiovascular and circulatory health, lymphatic drainage, digestive integrity, metabolic efficiency, and inflammatory balance while also providing deep nutritional replenishment. Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant-rich herbs help support joint comfort and mobility, while digestive and liver-supportive herbs assist nutrient absorption and metabolic waste clearance — two areas that are commonly compromised in senior horses.
While formulated with senior horses in mind, Equine Senior Core Essentials is also an excellent choice for horses in medium to heavy work that require deeper systemic support beyond basic daily nutrition. It serves as a bridge between preventative daily support and more targeted therapeutic blends.
This formulation is provided in two bags — a cut & sifted blend for long-term nourishment and system regulation, and a powdered blend for concentrated inflammatory and circulatory support. Together, they create a deeply supportive tonic that works with the horse’s natural physiology rather than overriding it.
Rooted in a species-appropriate, forage-first framework, Equine Senior Core Essentials is designed to be paired with a whole-food diet that prioritizes quality forage, mineral balance, and appropriate fat sources. For optimal results, this blend pairs beautifully with Non-GMO Camelina Meal to support omega balance and vitamin E status.

Reviews
I have seniors all in their mid-twenties, they have been on this blend for about 4 months and I can't even express how much better better they have been since being on this blend. The overall wellness in this blend amazing. I don't think I have seen any issues with my horses since finding Wholehearted Harmony. Thank you for doing what you do!
