Anhidrosis Protocol for Horses
If you’ve ever said, “I’ve tried everything and my horse still won’t sweat,” this protocol was built for you. The best time to start is before sweating slows down, but even if your horse is already bone‑dry in the heat, this combo is formulated to help re‑activate the body’s cooling system and support a return to normal sweating.
For horses that have suffered through past summers, we recommend starting support before peak heat so you’re staying ahead of the stress instead of chasing an already overloaded system.
How to Use
Most horses respond well to ProHydra and CelVet alone; in tougher, long‑term cases, adding SolVet for one bottle can help the organs that drive sweating work more effectively.
- Feed ProHydra once daily in the morning, starting about a month before the heat arrives and continuing through hot or humid seasons.
- Feed CelVet daily alongside ProHydra for electrolyte and hydration support; it can be given in a single meal, split between meals, or added to water.
- For horses with more advanced anhidrosis or a history of non‑sweating, add SolVet once daily in the evening for one full bottle. If you choose to continue SolVet longer, feed a half dose from the second bottle as maintenance.
At full recommended doses, each of these products lasts about 50 days.
Why It Works
When a horse stops sweating, nothing about its routine feels straightforward anymore. Owners are hosing off constantly, changing turnout schedules, and trying product after product—yet the horse still overheats and takes too long to recover. Anhidrosis isn’t usually solved by one simple supplement, because it isn’t just a sweat‑gland problem; it’s a system problem where the nervous, endocrine, circulatory, and fluid‑regulation networks all drift out of balance.
This protocol is designed to address that bigger picture. ProHydra supports circulation and adrenal balance, SolVet supports endocrine and detox pathways, and CelVet targets mineral movement and interstitial hydration—together helping bring the horse’s internal climate back into balance when everything has felt “upside down.”
ProHydra
ProHydra supports hydration, circulation, and adrenal resilience with herbs such as Maca, Rhodiola, St. John’s Wort, and Angelica. It helps keep fluids moving across the cell membrane and supports stamina in the heat, making it an ideal daily foundation through the summer or any intense heat season.
CelVet
CelVet is not just “more salt in the feed.” It is a structured mineral blend designed to reach the interstitium—the fluid‑rich tissue space around cells where much of the body’s heat exchange, waste removal, and electrolyte balance actually occurs. When that space is stagnant or depleted, horses can look dry‑coated, overheat quickly, and feel like they never quite bounce back after work or hot weather.
CelVet combines Magnesium Sulphate, Sodium Sulphate, Himalayan Salt, Kala Namak, Manganese Sulphate, Vitamin C, and Green Clay to support mineral mobility, gentle osmotic movement of fluids, and buffering of the tissues. This helps pull hydration into the spaces around the cells, improves the “slip” of fluids through the system, and supports more efficient cooling and recovery—going several steps beyond what you’d get from plain salt or a basic electrolyte alone.
SolVet
SolVet targets hormonal balance and detox pathways, especially when sweating has fully or nearly shut down or the horse has a longer history of heat intolerance. Chaste Tree, Wild Yam, Pau d’Arco, and Cloves support the pituitary and liver—key regulators of thermoregulation and metabolic clearance—adding an extra layer of support in more difficult cases.
