Vervain - Feed Ingredient
Vervain, typically referring to Verbena officinalis, is a flowering herb traditionally used in herbal medicine. The aerial parts of the plant contain various phytochemicals including iridoid glycosides (such as verbenalin), flavonoids, and essential oils.
In equine supplements, vervain is used in dried or extract form and included in botanical blends aimed at supporting calm behavior or overall wellness. Its use is based on traditional applications rather than established nutritional value, and it is generally incorporated at low inclusion rates.
The following equine feeds, supplements and products contain Vervain as an ingredient.
