The skin is strengthened in its self-regulation by the milieu-improving ingredients. Colonization of pathogenic microorganisms and fungi on the skin is made more difficult.

The skin can again fulfill its protective function as a border organ to the outside world.As further measures we recommend:Disinfection of cleaning and saddle equipmentWashing and disinfecting saddlecloths, sweat blankets, and winter blanketsDisinfection of the ambiance (horse stable, feeding troughs, …)Avoid contact with infected horses (quarantine/separation)Light, air, and sun are natural enemies of the skin fungus - ensure sufficient stay on the paddock and ventilation of the stable alley!Expert tip: It is conspicuous in horses, that are sensitive to fungi, that malanders, mite infestation, fecal water or even respiratory tract infections often `accompany´ the fungal infestation. Since it comes mostly during the time of changing the coat to the increased susceptibility to a fungal colonization, special attention should be paid to feeding and optimal micronutrient supply (HuminoMineral). If the need is not met, skin regeneration, skin stability, and new skin formation are disturbed, and the scin becomes susceptible to parasites. A micronutrient supply adapted to the need and the support with omega-3 fatty acids (EquiGreen Feeding Oil) from high-quality oils are significant for a fast regeneration.Since an external skin fungus often gives an indication of an infestation with intestinal fungi, an intestinal remediation with simultaneous support of the metabolic organs (liver and kidneys) can make very much sense (https://cdvet.sharepoint.com/:b:/s/shares/EWGT7LwNXVdFnI03Z_ORGEcBhsf_N440Hs3ApsFK4R79ug?e=8pocRT).Contains lavender oil.

An overload of the detoxification organs, liver and kidneys, usually shows up in a dull coat, dandruff and eschar formation, hair loss, and itching, as the skin metabolism as the 'last excretory organ' in the body is also stressed.Common causes of unbalanced skin metabolism are incorrect feeding, obesity, and metabolic diseases.

Horses' ears can be affected by various diseases, including otitis externa (inflammation of the outer ear), otitis media (inflammation of the middle ear), otitis interna (inflammation of the inner ear), parasites, tumors and injuries. Signs such as head shaking, excessive scratching or unusual behavior should indicate a possible disease.
To combat dry skin in horses, you can promote skin health through a balanced diet with omega-3 fatty acids, sufficient drinking water and high-quality roughage. The use of special horse creams or lotions, regular coat care and checking for parasites such as lice are also helpful measures.
During the molting, it is advisable to give your horse high-quality roughage for sufficient crude fiber, a balanced mineral feed for vitamins and minerals, and protein-rich feed to support the coat change. Fatty additives such as linseed oil can promote skin and coat health. Good hydration through sufficient drinking water is also important to facilitate the molting. In addition, skin metabolism is promoted by the important nutrients in our 'EquiGreen Coat and Skin Vital'.
The horse's ears do not need to be cleaned regularly, but it may be necessary if there are signs of dirt, excess ear wax or irritation. A visual inspection during general grooming is advisable. If the horse is shaking its ears more, tilting its head or showing signs of discomfort, cleaning may be necessary. However, it is important to do this with caution.
"Hunger hair" is a colloquial term that refers to the long, coarse hairs on the withers and other parts of a horse's body. These hairs are often longer and thicker than the rest of the horse's coat and can be particularly noticeable in winter. The term refers to the idea that these hairs grow more when a horse is underweight due to lack of food or inadequate nutrition. In reality, however, these hairs can also be genetic or due to other factors such as hormonal changes.
Horses can be affected by various skin diseases such as mud fever, eczema, mange, fungal infections, sweet itch, coat change problems and urticaria.
To improve dull coat in horses, a balanced diet with the necessary nutrients is crucial. Regular coat care by brushing promotes blood circulation and removes dead hair. Additional measures such as sufficient hydration and, if necessary, special nutritional supplements can help. Our 'EquiGreen Coat & Skin Vital' contains plenty of B vitamins, which ensure that they support healthy skin metabolism.
