Anecdata: supplementing marine source omega-3 fatty acids associated with lower ACTH in my one single Cushings horse who wasn't enrolled in a study

I really wish my gelding would eat the EO-3 oil. I couldn’t get him to consume even 1 tsp in a mash - He sniffed his bowl and gave me the evil eye. And this was the improved mint/apple flavor. I tried for weeks. I finally gave up and went back to flax, which he happily consumes :roll_eyes: .

I had no luck w either.

Wellpride has a citrusy scent and my pony doesn’t mind it.

I’ve fed Contribute to several horses all with success. Smells like bubblegum.

Oh yes I did forget to mention that Wellpride is fish oil only, too. And 1 serving is close to the study dose for EPA and DHA but the cost is $1.80/day!

It is expensive, but is multipurpose. I’m using it mostly for asthma, but it also helps skin and coat, joints, stomach, muscles, hooves and energy. His other supplement contains spirulina, MSM and J-herb, so I feel as if all things are covered.
