Horses often suffer from various hoof and skin problems that are not only unpleasant but can also be time-consuming to treat. Diseases such as thrush, mite infestation, lice, fungal infections or sweet itch not only affect the horse externally, but often also have an impact on its general well-being. Our natural products made from hemp with CBD and medicinal mushrooms offer a holistic solution to specifically address both external and internal problems.

Here are other skin and hoof problems in horses that fit into this category:
Thrush in horses
One of the most common hoof diseases in horses is thrush , a bacterial infection that is often caused by damp housing conditions and poor hoof care. The bacteria break down the frog of the hoof, which can lead to a bad smell, black, rotten tissue and, in advanced cases, pain and lameness. Regular hoof care and targeted feeding to strengthen the hooves are crucial to preventing thrush and promoting long-term hoof health.
Hoof fungus in horses
Hoof fungus is another common problem that can arise from poor hoof hygiene or a weakened immune system. Fungi penetrate the hoof wall, causing brittle horn and inflammation. Here too, proper care plays a major role in preventing the spread of the fungus. Targeted support through feed supplements that promote the immune system and hoof regeneration can help combat hoof fungus.
Fungal infections in horses
Fungal infections are common in horses with a weakened immune system. They are characterized by flaky skin, itching and hair loss. Treatment of fungal infections requires a combination of external application and internal support of the body to strengthen the immune system and regenerate the skin. A healthy diet and good hygiene are important to promote skin health and prevent fungal diseases.
Mites and lice in horses
Mites and lice are parasites that can infest the horse's skin and coat. These little pests cause severe itching, hair loss and skin irritations. They often occur more frequently in the winter months when horses have thicker coats and are mainly kept in stables. Mites and lice can cause great discomfort and require both external treatment and strengthening of the immune system through targeted supplementary feed.
Coat change and metabolic stress
The change of coat is a big challenge for many horses, as the metabolism is particularly stressed during this time. It begins at the respective solstice and from then on the body is already very busy, even if it does not appear that way on the outside.
Horses have to use a lot of energy in a short space of time to shed the old coat and grow new fur. A targeted supplementary feed for the coat change can support the metabolism by providing the necessary vitamins, minerals and nutrients. This will optimally support your horse through the coat change without causing skin problems or weakness.
Summer eczema in horses
Summer eczema is an allergic reaction to the bite of the black fly, which can lead to severe itching, skin irritations and even open wounds in affected horses. This condition occurs particularly in the warm months and requires targeted treatment that supports skin health externally and strengthens the immune system internally. A combination of skin care products and natural supplementary feed can help to relieve the symptoms and regenerate your horse's skin.
Why is it important to support skin and hoof diseases naturally?
Your horse's skin and hooves often reflect its general state of health. Chemical treatments can provide short-term relief, but they often put a strain on the organism and digestion. Natural support is not only gentler, but can help in the long term to strengthen the immune system and promote the health of the hooves and skin.
A natural supplementary feed for the coat change supports your horse's body during this sensitive phase, without chemical additives. Special feeds can accelerate the coat change and relieve skin problems. For skin diseases such as sweet itch, it is important to offer both external treatments and internal support. Natural skin care products help to gently treat eczema and strengthen the skin barrier.
The situation is similar with thrush and hoof fungus: a natural external treatment can help to fight the bacteria and fungi, while at the same time support from the inside through supplementary feed promotes regeneration. Mite infestation or lice can also be combated sustainably by combining external treatments and natural feeding to strengthen the immune system.
Hemp, CBD and medicinal mushrooms – perfect support for skin and hoof problems
Hemp with CBD and medicinal mushrooms have proven to be particularly valuable in supporting skin and hoof problems. In selected combinations, these natural ingredients can have an anti-inflammatory and anti-itching effect, as well as a calming effect and strengthen the immune system - ideal for horses with skin irritations, itching or hoof problems.
CBD is known for its anti-inflammatory and soothing properties. For skin problems such as sweet itch, CBD helps to soothe the skin, relieve itching and reduce inflammation. CBD can also help to support healing and regenerate the skin in cases of thrush or lice. CBD has also proven to be useful for horses during the shedding period as it stimulates metabolism and promotes skin health.
Hemp powder with CBD provides a natural source of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which are particularly important for skin and hoof health. It helps keep the skin supple and strengthens the hoof structure by supporting cell renewal. Hemp products can contribute to long-term health improvements in horses with summer eczema, thrush or hoof fungus.
Medicinal mushrooms such as Reishi , Shiitake , Maitake and Hericium have anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting effects. They help combat skin problems such as eczema, mite infestation and fungal infections by supporting the body from within.
Reishi regulates histamine production, has an anti-inflammatory effect and helps with summer eczema, thrush and mite infestation.
Hericium strengthens the nervous system and regenerates the skin barrier, especially in cases of eczema and thrush.
Shiitake strengthens the immune system, supports coat change and helps with skin irritations, mites and hoof problems.
Maitake is rich in antioxidants, strengthens the immune system and helps with summer eczema, thrush and mite infestation.
The combination of hemp with its valuable fatty acids and medicinal mushrooms such as reishi, shiitake and hericium offers comprehensive support for horses with hoof and skin problems. Together, these ingredients have an anti-inflammatory effect, strengthen the immune system and promote the regeneration of skin and hooves. By combining the benefits of CBD and hemp with the healing powers of medicinal mushrooms, you create the best foundation for your horse's hoof and skin health.
Our natural products made from CBD and medicinal mushrooms are ideal for treating itching, as they have a calming, balancing and regenerating effect both internally and externally. For example, a horse that is stressed by itching will be more relaxed again.
The effect of hemp and medicinal mushrooms in our products
Our products can be easily combined with other popular herbs for skin, hooves and coat, such as milk thistle, zeolite, willow bark and echinacea. These herbs promote detoxification, strengthen the immune system and support regeneration. However, we have deliberately chosen to omit these ingredients from our products because we are particularly concerned about being stomach-friendly . While these herbs can be useful, they have the potential to upset sensitive stomachs. Our products offer gentle and effective support that improves both hoof health and skin care.
