Description
Chaste Tree Berries (Vitex agnus-castus), commonly known as Monk’s Pepper, has long been valued for its hormone-balancing effects. It helps regulate oestrogen, progesterone, and testosterone levels, making it an excellent supplement for mares experiencing mood swings, stallions with aggressive tendencies, and geldings facing hormonal imbalances.
By supporting hormonal stability, this herb reduces stress-related behaviours, helping horses become calmer, more focused, and easier to handle. It also improves coat and skin health, especially for horses with patchy shedding, dull coats, or skin issues linked to hormone fluctuations. Some studies suggest that they may also assist in managing Equine Cushing’s Syndrome (PPID) by supporting pituitary gland function.
