Understanding Balance in Horses
Cushing’s Awareness
When the body’s natural rhythms change—as in conditions like Cushing’s—there can be shifts in energy, strength, and balance. One area often affected is the body’s ability to hold onto key minerals that keep muscles and nerves working smoothly.
Horses, like people, move through different stages of life, each bringing its own rhythm and changes
With age, shifts in balance may appear, including those often spoken of as Cushing’s or PPID, reflecting natural changes in the way the body regulates itself
Traditional wisdom has long associated certain plants and minerals with nourishment of the endocrine system — the body’s network of glands that guide energy, growth, and adaptation
Carefully chosen natural ingredients may help maintain steadiness, vitality, and resilience, supporting horses as they move gracefully into their senior years
Such blends are often valued for their role in promoting balance, calmness, and overall wellbeing rather than focusing on any single part alone
This approach reflects the belief that tending gently to the inner harmony of the horse encourages strength and comfort throughout life’s transitions
-
Potassium & Energy — Potassium is an important mineral that supports steady muscle strength, clear nerve signals, and a regular heartbeat. When the body is under stress, it may lose potassium more quickly, which can leave muscles feeling weak or tired.
-
Signs of Imbalance — Traditional awareness connects low mineral balance with cramps, twitches, or a sense of heavy fatigue. In some cases, people describe changes in mood, irritability, or feeling less stable on their feet.
-
Cushing’s & Body Shifts — Cushing’s has long been recognised by changes in the way the body stores energy. This may include shifts in weight, changes in skin, or a difference in hair growth patterns. Each person or animal may show these changes differently.
Why Awareness Matters — Paying attention to these signs allows caretakers to better support wellbeing—whether through nutrition, rest, or professional guidance when needed.
