With 25 years of experience in breeding, training, competing, and equine care, she developed a unique insight into the needs of horses and the challenges faced by owners. Over time, Rachael recognised a gap in the market for supplements that truly prioritised horse wellbeing, avoiding the synthetic, often ineffective products that dominated the industry. This realisation led to the creation of Equell, a company focused on premium, science-backed products that cater to the natural health of horses.

Equell’s mission is simple: to offer high-quality, natural, science-based supplements for overall horse health. Unlike many market products, Equell’s formulations begin with plant-based ingredients and cutting-edge research to ensure their efficacy.

Equell’s range includes Güt Food for digestive healthUlcerAid to support the stomach’s natural defences and overall gut health, UltraAir for equine respiratory support, and Unwind a calming supplement for nervous horses. Each product is crafted with natural ingredients, selected for their therapeutic properties. This dedication to quality has earned Equell a loyal following of equine enthusiasts who value care and nutrition.
For Rachael, using natural ingredients isn’t just a trend; it aligns with her values and respect for horses. “Horses deserve the best,” she says. “By using high-quality, natural ingredients, we create products that are both safe and effective, rooted in the natural world that horses evolved to live in.”

Keywords: equine Supplements, Horse Nutrition, Digestive Health, Natural Ingredients, UK Made, Horse Health
time.news: Welcome, Dr. Sharma. Thanks for joining us today to discuss the captivating world of equine supplements. Many horse owners are increasingly looking for natural alternatives in horse nutrition. What’s driving this shift?
Dr. Anya Sharma: Thanks for having me. I think several factors are at play. Firstly, there’s a growing general trend towards natural and organic products in all aspects of our lives, and that extends to pet care. Secondly,horse owners are becoming more educated and demanding about the ingredients that go into their animal’s feed and supplements. They’re questioning the long lists of synthetic chemicals and seeking more holistic approaches to equestrian health.
time.news: We recently learned about Equell Nutrition Limited, a UK-based company emphasizing natural, plant-based ingredients in their horse supplements. What are your thoughts on this approach?
Dr. Sharma: I find their beliefs very promising. The equine digestive system is incredibly sensitive, and horses have evolved eating grasses and herbs. Using plant-based ingredients leverages this natural biology. The key, of course, is ensuring these ingredients are of high quality and scientifically backed. Not all natural substances are created equal, and some require careful handling to ensure safety and efficacy.
Time.news: The article mentions Equell’s focus on digestive health, with products like “Güt Food” and “ulceraid.” Why is digestive health so crucial for horses?
dr. Sharma: A healthy gut is the foundation for overall equine health. The digestive system is where horses absorb nutrients, and it also plays a critical role in their immune system. Problems in the gut can manifest as a variety of issues, from poor performance and weight loss to colic and even behavioral changes. Proactive digestive support can frequently enough prevent these problems from arising in the first place.
Time.news: Equell highlights the scientific research behind their formulations. How crucial is this in the equine supplement industry?
Dr. Sharma: Absolutely vital! The equine supplement industry is frequently enough criticized, rightfully so, for lacking rigorous scientific evidence. Clever marketing can sometimes overshadow a lack of real efficacy. Horse owners need to be discerning consumers,looking for supplements that have undergone proper testing and demonstrate tangible benefits. It’s not enough to just say something is “natural” – we need to know why it effectively works and how it’s been proven to be effective. Phrases like “scientifically-backed” and “proven results in field trials” are key indicators.
Time.news: The post also mentions “UltraAir” for equine respiratory support and “Unwind” a calming supplement. what are some key ingredients people should look for?
Dr. Sharma: For respiratory support, look for ingredients like specific herbs known for their anti-inflammatory or bronchodilatory properties. With calming supplements, Magnesium is a classic choice, but also consider herbs traditionally used for anxiety relief in horses, like chamomile or vervain. again, look for brands that are obvious about the specific ingredients and the science backing their use. The key is to support, not sedate.
Time.news: Equell manufactures their supplements in the UK. Does location of manufacturing play a role?
Dr. Sharma: Yes, it absolutely does. Manufacturing location can heavily affect the quality control process.UK-made supplements have to adhere to strict regulations regarding ingredient sourcing, manufacturing practices, and product safety. Local manufacturing also allows for quicker product growth and better oversight, which is good for quality and ensures products are safe for competition.
Time.news: The article emphasizes Equell’s commitment to putting horse owners first. What does good customer service look like in the equine supplement world?
Dr. Sharma: Clarity is paramount. Horse owners want to know exactly what they’re giving their horse and why. Providing tailored advice, answering questions promptly and thoroughly, and offering a money-back guarantee demonstrate this commitment. A customer-first approach builds trust and shows that a company genuinely cares about the well-being of the animals they serve.
Time.news: What’s your final advice for horse owners looking to incorporate natural supplements into their horse nutrition program?
Dr. Sharma: First and foremost,consult with your veterinarian or a qualified equine nutritionist. They can assess your horse’s individual needs and help you choose the right supplements. Look for companies that prioritize quality, transparency, and scientific evidence. Read the labels carefully,understand the ingredients,and don’t be afraid to ask questions. Remember, supplementing is about enhancing, not replacing, a healthy diet and lifestyle.
