Coltsfoot leaves

That distinguishes our Coltsfoot leaves

Coltsfoot leaves from the plant of the same name (Tussilago farfara) were already used in the Middle Ages for their soothing, expectorant and cough-relieving properties. Coltsfoot leaves can also achieve the same positive effects as a feed supplement for horses, helping to alleviate respiratory problems.

Coltsfoot leaves – the medicinal plant with a long tradition

Coltsfoot leaves have been an established part of folk medicine for centuries. The leaves resemble horse hooves in shape and are dried before being added to feed. In modern animal nutrition, coltsfoot leaves are added to feed, especially during the cold season. This natural home remedy contains a range of tannins and mucilage as well as minerals and can be easily added to other herbs or feed.

Properties of coltsfoot leaves

The mucilage contained in the leaves has a soothing effect on the respiratory tract. They can be given as a supportive measure in cases of high dust exposure, for example in stables or during transport. They can also be given for dry coughs or if the animal suffers from frequent or sporadic respiratory problems. In addition to their soothing properties, the leaves also have an expectorant effect. Furthermore, the leaves are said to have digestive properties in folk medicine.
