When your horse starts to feel “off,” what’s really going on beneath the surface?

Stiffness after work, a slower recovery, or that subtle hesitation to move out can all trace back to inflammation and tissue stress — not just sore joints.

Here we take a closer look at how systemic enzymes, like those found in Steel Horse Formulations Serraquin ES15, support the body’s natural recovery process.

Rather than masking discomfort, these enzymes work with the body to:
• Help break down excess fibrin and reduce inflammation
• Support healthy circulation and tissue repair
• Aid in recovery after training or injury

It’s a science-based look at how horses heal, and why supporting their internal systems can make such a difference in long-term soundness.
