Black Cohosh Root - Feed Ingredient
Black Cohosh Root is derived from the rhizome of Actaea racemosa (formerly Cimicifuga racemosa), a perennial plant native to North America. The root contains a variety of bioactive compounds, including triterpene glycosides (such as actein and cimicifugoside), alkaloids, and phenolic acids, which are believed to contribute to its physiological effects.
In equine feed or supplement formulations, black cohosh root is used as a botanical additive, primarily in products designed to support hormonal or reproductive balance, particularly in mares. It may also appear in herbal blends aimed at comfort or temperament regulation. The root is typically included in dried or extract form, and its inclusion is based on traditional herbal applications rather than nutritional contribution.
Caution is advised with the use of black cohosh in equine diets. Its potent bioactive compounds may influence hormonal activity, and its safety has not been thoroughly studied in horses. Inclusion levels are generally low, and it is primarily found in specialty herbal formulations.
The following equine feeds, supplements and products contain Black Cohosh Root as an ingredient.
