It can help support immune health as well.

Investigating the effects of Spirulina platensis aqueous extract on the proliferation of ASCs and IECs isolated from horses diagnosed with Equine Melanoma Syndrome (EMS), we conducted cell proliferation assays. Apoptosis-related genes and proteins such as p53 were assessed via real time RT-PCR while dead cell percentage was evaluated using Calcein AM staining with propidium iodide staining to assess percentage dead cells; results demonstrated a significant reduction in proliferation for these cells EMS horses than before Spirulina platensis extract significantly decreased ASC and IEC proliferation significantly from horses diagnosed with EMS.

Spirulina is a natural anti-inflammatory food and provides many essential nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, and amino acids for horses.
