CoatCOMBO for Horses | Coat Change & Healthy Coat Support 🍂SEPTEMBER SALE - 20%-OFF - USE CODE SHIFT20

Have you ever wondered how much your horse actually has to build?

We tend to notice the work involved in growing a healthy coat most during coat change, when the horse simply starts shedding.

Hair loosens, hair falls out, we wear most of it, the washing machine gets the rest.

But while we're busy complaining about horse hair in our underwear, something much more interesting is happening underneath.

Your horse isn't simply losing an old coat. They're continually building hair – and during coat change, they're building an entirely new one.

And hair is tissue.

Its main structural protein is keratin , built from amino acids and particularly dependent upon sulphur for the bonds that give hair its strength and structure.

Suddenly coat change starts looking rather interesting – because creating thousands upon thousands of new hairs means sourcing raw materials, building new proteins, supplying rapidly active tissues with nutrients, processing normal metabolic by-products, and keeping everything else the horse needs to do ticking along at the same time.

The coat hasn't suddenly become a “detox problem” – your horse has simply started another fairly substantial building project.

It's a bit like looking at a building site:

• Protein/amino acids = raw materials.
• Sulphur = structural component.
• Gut = nutritional interface.
• Liver/kidneys/lymph = everyday processing and housekeeping.
• Coat = the magnificent finished building we eventually get to look at.

And, just like any building project, what you notice on the outside can sometimes tell you something about the foundations underneath.

A horse with excellent forage, adequate quality protein, balanced minerals, healthy digestion and good overall nutrition may grow a fabulous healthy coat – and sail through seasonal coat change – without needing anything extra at all.

Another horse may make us look a little closer. They might be older, perhaps maintaining muscle and topline is already harder, digestion might not be quite as robust as we'd like, or perhaps their coat is persistently dull, dry, scurfy or simply never seems to have quite the bloom we'd expect.

And sometimes seasonal coat change simply makes those nutritional or metabolic weak spots even easier to see.

That's where CoatCOMBO fits.

Not by asking one supplement to somehow “make a coat”, but by bringing together three different nutritional jobs:

• MSM provides bioavailable organic sulphur, supporting the structural nutrition involved in keratin, skin, hoof and connective tissue.
• L-Glutamine provides targeted nutritional support for the rapidly renewing cells of the intestinal lining, helping maintain the gut environment through which the wider nutritional foundations of coat growth are supported.
• LKLCARE supports the liver, kidneys and lymphatic system – the body's everyday processing, elimination and tissue-fluid housekeeping network.

Different jobs. But one horse simultaneously building, nourishing, processing and adapting.

And perhaps that's the most useful way to think about coat health. Not as something we simply polish from the outside, but as something being continually built from within – with seasonal coat change sometimes giving us the clearest window into how well those foundations are supporting it.

CoatCOMBO is a good fit when your horse's coat seems to be showing you that the wider nutritional picture could use a little extra support.

Sometimes that becomes most obvious during coat change. Some horses shed one coat, grow another, and carry on with life as though nothing much has happened. Others take longer, lose their usual bloom, or simply seem to find those busy seasonal weeks rather more demanding.

But coat change isn't the only time we get clues. A coat that remains dull, dry or scurfy, struggles to develop that healthy shine, or simply never looks quite as good as we'd expect can also be a useful reason to look at what the horse has available to build it.

Choose CoatCOMBO if your horse:

✔ Takes longer than usual to change coat, or seems slow to finish shedding

✔ Grows a coat that looks dull, lacklustre, or lacking its usual bloom – whether seasonally or throughout the year

✔ Develops a dry or scurfy coat/skin, particularly when nutritional demands increase

✔ Finds maintaining topline, muscle, or overall condition more difficult alongside poorer coat quality

✔ Is an older horse who already finds building and maintaining healthy tissues more demanding

✔ Has a history of digestive sensitivity where additional nutritional support for rapidly renewing gut tissues may be helpful

✔ Usually seems to benefit from additional liver–kidney–lymph support, particularly during periods of seasonal change

In short: if your horse's coat seems to expose an existing nutritional weak spot – whether during seasonal coat change or at other times of year – CoatCOMBO provides three different layers of targeted support for the wider picture underneath it.

- Supporting the wider picture

CoatCOMBO already brings together three complementary areas of support, so for many horses it can be used on its own during coat change or whenever additional coat support is appropriate.

If, however, poor coat or skin quality is only one part of a much bigger picture, it's often worth looking a little deeper rather than simply adding more coat supplements.

KPUCOMBO – if recurring coat and skin problems sit alongside digestive issues, hoof quality, seasonal sensitivities, respiratory patterns, or other interconnected signs that suggest a wider whole-system imbalance.

If maintaining muscle, topline, or condition remains an ongoing challenge, it's also worth reviewing your horse's overall protein and amino-acid intake rather than expecting any coat supplement to compensate for nutritional shortfalls.

- Foundation support

Growing and maintaining a healthy coat depends on much more than one supplement.

Healthy hair still relies on adequate quality protein, balanced minerals and trace elements, healthy fats, good forage, and a thriving digestive system capable of making good use of them.

Supporting your horse's baseline nutrition with a forage-based mineral balancer such as VitaComplete or EquiVita helps create the conditions for healthier skin, stronger hair growth, and more consistent long-term results.

In summary

Use CoatCOMBO when your horse's coat seems to be asking you to look a little more closely at the nutritional picture underneath it – whether that's during a busy seasonal coat change or simply because their coat isn't thriving as you'd expect.

Keep the nutritional foundations underneath it strong, give the body the raw materials it needs to keep building healthy hair, and if the same coat or skin patterns return again and again, look beyond the coat at what your horse may be trying to tell you.

When it comes to herbs and herbal formulations, you may have heard herbalists talk about energetics . It's simply the way we describe how a herb or formula has been designed to support the body in a balanced and purposeful way. The science helps us understand why that structure works.

CoatCOMBO is built around one simple observation – a healthy coat isn't simply something we see on the outside. It's something the horse has to continually build from within.

And while that work becomes particularly obvious during seasonal coat change, the nutritional and biological processes involved in producing healthy hair are working all year round.

Think of it as supporting the foundations underneath the coat, rather than simply trying to polish the finished result.

How the formula works

Rather than focusing on the coat alone, CoatCOMBO supports three interconnected areas involved in healthy hair production and the wider nutritional picture underneath it.

1. Supporting healthy tissue structure
   – Healthy hair depends on more than simply growing new strands. It relies on structural proteins rich in sulphur, alongside the nutrients needed to maintain skin, connective tissue and hoof integrity. MSM provides a bioavailable source of organic sulphur to support those normal structural processes.
2. Supporting the nutritional interface
   – Building new tissue depends on absorbing and using nutrients efficiently. L-Glutamine supports the rapidly renewing cells of the intestinal lining, helping maintain the healthy intestinal environment that underpins efficient digestion and nutrient use.
3. Supporting everyday biological housekeeping
   – Healthy tissue growth happens alongside all the body's normal metabolic work. LKLCARE supports the liver, kidneys and lymphatic system – the body's natural processing, elimination, transport and tissue-fluid housekeeping network – helping maintain everyday physiological balance while the horse continues building and renewing tissues.

Big picture

Your horse is continually growing and renewing hair while also digesting, moving, repairing tissues, regulating hormones and running every other biological process that keeps them healthy.

During spring and autumn coat change, that work becomes wonderfully visible – one coat disappears while another takes its place. But sometimes the clues are there at other times too: a coat that looks dull, dry or scurfy, lacks its usual bloom, or simply doesn't seem to thrive as we'd expect.

For some horses, that's simply a useful reminder to look more closely at the nutritional foundations underneath it.

That's exactly where CoatCOMBO sits. It isn't designed to somehow “make” a better coat – it supports the nutritional and biological foundations that allow your horse to build healthy hair naturally.

Advisories

• Feed alongside balanced minerals, adequate quality protein, appropriate forage and normal good management.

Contraindications

• Always seek veterinary advice for pregnant or nursing mares.
• If your horse has significant liver, kidney, or metabolic disease, or is receiving prescription medication, seek veterinary guidance before introducing any new supplement.

Why does my horse's coat sometimes lose its shine?

A healthy coat reflects much more than what's happening on the outside.

Hair is continually being built from protein, amino acids, sulphur, minerals, healthy fats, and all the nutrients your horse absorbs every day.

Sometimes a dull, dry, or lacklustre coat is simply a reminder that one of those building blocks could use a little extra support.

That's why we don't just look at the coat itself – we look at what the horse has available to build it.

Is CoatCOMBO only for coat change?

Not at all.

Coat change is simply the time when the demands of building healthy hair become most obvious.

But your horse is continually growing, renewing, and maintaining their coat throughout the year.

If their coat looks dull, dry, scurfy, slow to bloom, or simply isn't looking its best, CoatCOMBO can be used whenever those extra nutritional demands arise.

When should I start feeding CoatCOMBO?

Whenever your horse's coat seems to be asking for a little more support.

Many owners feed it during the spring and autumn coat changes, but it's equally appropriate at other times of year if the coat appears lacklustre, the skin becomes dry or scurfy, or your horse simply isn't producing the healthy bloom you'd normally expect.

Why is my horse slow to shed their coat?

There's actually quite a long list of possible reasons.

Some horses simply change coat more slowly than others. Older horses often take a little longer, and seasonal weather can influence timing too. Good nutrition also plays an important role, as growing an entirely new coat places surprisingly high demands on protein, sulphur, minerals, and overall metabolism.

Sometimes, however, a coat that's persistently delayed, unusually thick, or failing to shed normally can be a sign that something deeper is going on.

Conditions such as PPID (Cushing's disease) can affect the normal coat-changing cycle, which is why a horse with an unusually delayed or abnormal coat should always be assessed as a whole rather than assuming it's "just a slow shedder."

Most horses simply need a little time and good nutritional support.

But if the pattern seems unusual, repeats year after year, or is accompanied by other changes such as increased drinking, weight loss, or loss of topline, we'd always recommend discussing it with your vet.

Why does CoatCOMBO contain LKLCARE?

Great question. When most people think about supporting the coat, they naturally think about hair.

We think about the whole horse.

Building healthy hair is only one of the many jobs your horse is carrying out every day. At the same time, the liver, kidneys, and lymphatic system are quietly getting on with their normal processing and housekeeping work.

LKLCARE supports those everyday systems, making it a natural partner whenever the body is investing extra resources into building and maintaining healthy tissues – whether that's during coat change or simply supporting coat quality throughout the year.

My horse's coat never seems to look as good as it should. Could there be something deeper going on?

Possibly. Sometimes a dull or scurfy coat simply reflects a temporary increase in nutritional demand.

But when poor coat quality keeps returning alongside skin flare-ups, digestive issues, hoof problems, seasonal sensitivities, or difficulty maintaining topline, we often encourage owners to step back and look at the whole horse.

The coat is wonderfully honest.

Quite often it's one of the first places the body tells us that something underneath could use a little more support.

Do I still need to feed a mineral balancer?

Absolutely. CoatCOMBO is designed to sit alongside good nutrition, not replace it.

Healthy hair still depends on quality protein, balanced minerals and trace elements, healthy fats, good forage, and a well-functioning digestive system.

Think of CoatCOMBO as helping support the building project – but the foundations still come from everyday nutrition.
