Anhidrosis is a serious condition for horses that is defined as the inability to dissipate body heat through normal sweating. Omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants combined with specific nutrients such as arginine and B vitamins (B3, B6, B1) have been found effective to support normal sweating in some horses.

“Louie is a chronic non-sweater, stopped sweating before he was weaned and is sweating better than ever after being on Platinum Refresh.
