If you’ve spent any time in the barn or riding with friends, chances are you’ve had heard or had conversations talking about CBD. But what exactly is it, how does it work for horses, and why are so many horse owners making it part of their horse’s wellness routine? Let’s break it down.
What is CBD?
CBD, short for cannabidiol, is a naturally occurring compound found in hemp plants. Unlike THC, it’s non-psychoactive so what does that mean exactly. It means it won’t cause that “high” effect. Under the 2018 Farm Bill, hemp-derived CBD with less than 0.3% THC became federally legal in the U.S.
How the Equine Endocannabinoid System Works
Horses and people have what’s called an endocannabinoid system (ECS) a network of receptors that help maintain balance in the body. CBD interacts with this system, supporting overall wellness and helping the body respond to everyday stressors.
Common Reasons Owners Choose CBD
While every horse like people they are all unique, many owners use CBD as part of their horse’s daily routine for:
– Helping to support overall calmness
– Maintaining healthy mobility
– Promoting recovery after training or exercise
(Note: CBD is not a cure or treatment for medical conditions — it’s best used as part of a well-rounded care plan.)
