   Location: North Dakota | Uckele LUNG has helped my gelding for 2 years-it is spirulina based which is antihistamine. It's affordable and pelleted which makes it very easy to feed. |

| Not a supplement, but I love my Micro-Plus microcurrent machine for lung treatments. It is very simple, super affordable (entire system for under $200) and has so many other uses. My good friend's mare got really sick a couple years ago, she developed scar tissue in her lungs from it and has always coughed when exercised since. She used to manage it by EquiResp treatments and now that she has had the microcurrent, she doesn't even have to nebulize her and the mare is not coughing. It has also been proven effective for EPIH in race horses. Supporting lung health is only one of the many, many benefits of this far-reaching, versatile, little device. Here is the website for more information. https://therapyproducts.net/ |

     Location: Wonderful Wyoming | Β THE Lung Function. It has helped horses with allergies and even some bleeders benefit from it. I have used it for chronic dry coughs when it's really dry and my horses are on hay pasture. |

      Location: NE Texas | A billion percent Cur-OST. Why? Because I tried everything to get my horse right including going the best performance horse vets in TX and OK and he continued to worsen. He couldn't take a deep enough breath to cough despite having had multiple rounds of antibiotics, steroid treatments, breathing treatments, and being on 10cc of Ventipulmin plus Dex daily. All of the vets said we were out of options for this guy. After much reading on my end, I stumbled across the Cur-OST website and after much discussioin with Dr. Schell, I tried his program as a last resort. In 30 days (pics below of first 30 days on this program) I had a new horse and haven't looked back.

     Location: Georgia | ForeRespiratory by ForeFront Equine. This is not a supplement that masks the problems at hands but heals the issues in the lungs, airways, and also allows immune support. I give this throughout the year to an allergy prone horse and also a bleeder. Both have excelled since using this product. Pm me if you have any other questions! |

Finally a lung supplement thats not a powder! My picky eater needs something. Currently on dex from vet but i dont feel like its helping, esp since its yellow season here. He will not eat powdered supps, will leave them on bottom |
