Besides being a tasty herb, it is also a very healthy herb for horses! Cleavers is also called lymphatic herb due to its healthy properties. This is because it is an important herb for supporting the lymphatic system and is therefore considered a natural diuretic for horses. Thus, cleavers contributes to good circulation, supports the removal of waste products and fluids, and contributes to a healthy and shiny coat.

When can I give cleavers to a horse?

Cleavers is known as a natural diuretic and is therefore very suitable for horses that are stabled for long periods and (temporarily) receive less exercise. Think, for example, of horses that are on box rest due to injury or surgery, or horses that are stabled for extended periods in the fall and winter. When a horse does not get enough exercise, waste products can accumulate in the legs and your horse may benefit from additional support of the lymphatic system. Cleavers naturally has a positive effect on the lymphatic system and is therefore ideal for giving your horse extra support from within.
