The effect of Immunovet in horses with behavioral problems

In a study lasting several years, it was shown that the occurrence of various problematic behaviors in horses decreases as a result of feeding Immunovet.

The behavior of horses can be influenced by many factors, including housing conditions, hormonal effects and the direction of utilization. Due to adverse effects, they easily develop behavioral problems (e.g. aggression, anxiety, nervousness, lack of obedience), which make working with them, sports and leisure activities difficult, so it is important to treat these behaviors as well as the root causes.

Over four years, a total of 91 animals were tested on the effects of Immunovet on horses, all of which had shown some type of problem behavior prior to the start of Immunovet feeding. In the study, Immunovet significantly reduced the occurrence of these harmful behaviors, which were evaluated on a scale of 1 to 5 by the animal's caretakers. Mares and gelding stallions of various ages (from 2 to 35 years) and types of use participated in the research.

In addition, in the long-term survey, an improvement in symptoms was also observed in cases where the participating animals suffered from other diseases in addition to behavioral problems. Improved appetite and weight gain, relief of colic symptoms, and beneficial effects on hoof, coat and skin problems have been described. In the publication on the results of the experiment, it is emphasized that these aspects were not the direct subject of the study, they were only described as additional observations, but nevertheless they represent promising results regarding the potential beneficial effects of Immunovet.

Based on the above, it can be said that, in addition to its many beneficial effects on health, Immunovet may also be suitable for alleviating behavioral problems in horses.
