Each pouch contains enough for 2-3 refreshes of an 8 quart bucket. One week’s supply is one pouch of each. One month’s supply is four pouches of each.
Nettle leaf, particularly stinging nettle (Urtica dioica), offers several potential benefits for horses. Here’s a breakdown of some key advantages:
Rich in Nutrients:
Nettle is a valuable source of vitamins and minerals, including iron, calcium, magnesium, and vitamin C. These nutrients contribute to overall equine health.
Joint Support:
It’s traditionally used to support joint health and ease stiffness. The silica content in nettle is believed to play a role in this benefit.
Fenugreek is an herb that has several potential benefits for horses.
Digestive Health:
Fenugreek can stimulate appetite and improve digestion. It can help reduce gas and bloating.
It may also soothe stomach ulcers.
Garlic can have many health benefits for horses, including boosting the immune system, improving respiratory health, and repelling insects.
Health benefits
Immune system: Garlic can help support a strong immune system.
Respiratory health: Garlic may help treat and prevent lung diseases and infections.
Blood pressure: Garlic can help lower blood pressure.
Joint health: Garlic is a natural source of MSM, which is commonly used to treat joint problems.
Gut health: Garlic can improve gut health and flora.
Anti-inflammatory: Garlic has anti-inflammatory properties.
Pain relief: Garlic may assist with pain relief.
Appetite: Garlic can help increase a horse’s appetite.
Beetroot powder, a source of natural nitrates, can potentially benefit horses by improving blood flow and oxygen delivery to muscles, potentially enhancing athletic performance and endurance, while also promoting healthy digestion due to its high fiber content.

Generally every two to three days but it will vary based on weather and how much your horse drinks. You will smell when the bucket gets a bit funky… and so will your horse. Mine avoid anything that seems off.
If you want to be sure your horse is having some you can sprinkle some of the pouch contents on their feed.
That’s perfectly normal! Water buffets are about choice and enrichment. I have water, coffee, almond milk, juice, soda water, wine and beer in my refrigerator. It doesn’t mean I drink each one every day. :)
Even better that they have novel stimulation to keep them occupied! And a water buffet doesn’t have to be several buckets. You can offer one different herb or spice in addition to a plain bucket of water and that qualifies. Rotating through flavors keeps life interesting.
Some horses love the taste of beetroot powder so much it can be used to entice them to finish feed and/or take medications. Finding a flavor your horse likes may make it easier to keep them hydrated when you are traveling to shows, seminars or trail riding as it helps mask the taste of “strange water.” A bucket after performing can aid in recovering from physically demanding events and help moderate stress.
At Improve Equine, we believe that every horse deserves the best. Our mission is to enhance the lives of horses and their owners by providing high-quality, enriching products that promote health and happiness.
