The Health Benefits You Probably Didn't Know About Garlic

When it comes to natural health support for horses, few ingredients are as time-tested and widely used as garlic. While often misunderstood, garlic is a safe and effective supplement when used correctly and offers more than just fly control.

At Trisana Nutrition, we offer only pure equine garlic, trusted by horse owners across Canada for its immune-supportive, cardio-protective, and insect-repelling properties.

Why Use Garlic for Horses?

✅ Natural Fly & Mosquito Repellent - Garlic is known to deter biting insects like flies, mosquitoes, and ticks. Once digested, it produces a scent that’s unnoticeable to horses but unappealing to bugs, offering a natural and chemical-free way to reduce pest pressure.

✅ Supports Heart & Kidney Health - Studies show that garlic may support cardiovascular and renal function in both humans and animals, thanks to its high sulphur and selenium content, both key for detoxification and cell repair.

✅ Boosts Immune Function - Garlic contains natural compounds like allicin, known for their antimicrobial and antioxidant properties, making it a powerful support for immune health.

✅ Supports Respiratory Health - Garlic has mild expectorant properties, helping to clear mucus and support a healthy respiratory system... Especially helpful for horses in dusty environments.

Is Garlic Safe for Horses?

Yes — in the correct form and dosage, garlic is safe for horses. The key is moderation and quality. Trisana’s equine garlic is carefully selected, pure, and free of fillers or additives, ensuring optimal safety and effectiveness.
