During intense exercise, excessive blood pressure inside arteries in a horse's lungs can cause the walls of small blood vessels to rupture. This causes "bleeding."

Intense exercise depletes a horse's body of chemical messengers called neurotransmitters needed to keep blood vessels in the lungs relaxed and open. One of the most important of these substances is nitric oxide. When nitric oxide is depleted by intense exercise, blood pressure within the lungs can rise excessively causing Exercise Induced Pulmonary Hemorrhage (EIPH) or "bleeding."

To minimize "bleeding" it is essential to replenish depleted chemicals that are necessary to control blood pressure in the lungs. Pulmon-EZ™ is a nutritional supplement designed to help minimize "bleeding" by promoting production of neurotransmitters needed for regulating blood pressure in the lungs.

IMPORTANT:

Anti-inflammatory drugs such as Banamine or "Bute" (phenylbutazone), and certain herbs block formation of nitric oxide. They will inhibit Pulmon-EZ™ effectiveness.   All anti-inflammatory drugs and all other supplements are to be stopped for at least the first 4-weeks of using Pulmon-EZ™.


Post-race “bleeding” (exercise induced pulmonary hemorrhage, or EIPH), affects the vast majority of Thoroughbred and Standardbred racehorses. In addition, EIPH frequently occurs in hunter-jumpers and other horses performing intense exercise in events, steeplechases, and polo. It is commonly believed by jockeys, drivers, trainers, and owners that EIPH has a substantial negative affect on race performance.

“Bleeding” is believed to be caused by leakage of blood from pulmonary capillaries when pulmonary arterial pressure increases to high levels due to intense exercise. Nitric oxide is a gaseous molecule produced in the lungs that plays a crucial role in regulating pulmonary vascular tone during exercise. Nitric oxide relaxes the walls of pulmonary blood vessels and decreases capillary pressure.

Nitric oxide has been shown to reduce the high levels of pulmonary artery pressure that are believed to cause Exercise Induced Pulmonary Hemorrhage (EIPH). An intensely exercising horse must be able to produce large amounts of nitric oxide in order to minimize “bleeding.”

Now there is a product that is designed to provide essential nutritional support for "bleeders." Pulmon-EZ™ is a nutritional supplement that is designed to promote equine lung health by supporting production of nitric oxide.

Nitric oxide is synthesized in the body from its nutrient precursor, the amino acid arginine. Attempts to increase nitric oxide production by administering large quantities of arginine have met with limited success. Additionally, administering substantial amounts of arginine may have undesirable side effects, either through stimulating insulin release or by affecting other mechanisms.

There has been a need for a way to increase the amount of nitric oxide produced within the body using relatively small doses of arginine. Achieving these previously unattainable results was made possible through the development of a proprietary product formulation methodology, known as NPS.

NPS™ stands for "Neurotransmitter Production Support". This approach to product formulation is designed to systematically promote synergistic interactions of specific ingredients. For example, in addition to promoting nitric oxide production, Pulmon-EZ™ contains selected bioflavonoids to help minimize the weakening of capillary walls from oxidative damage.

Pulmon-EZ™ provides the nutrients a horse’s body needs to form neurotransmitters that promote blood flow in the lungs. Pulmon-EZ™ combines selected neurotransmitter-precursors with all-natural ingredients that support neurotransmitter synthesis.

IMPORTANT: Pulmon-EZ™ must be administered when the horse’s stomach is as empty as possible. This is essential to promote rapid absorption of the ingredients in their intended proportions in order to produce the desired effect.

Pulmon-EZ™ contains no drugs or racing-prohibited ingredients.

The damage to a bleeder's lungs becomes progressively worse over time. Don't allow your horse to suffer needlessly.

IMPORTANT:

Exercise Induced Pulmonary Hemorrhage (EIPH) or "Bleeding" indicates that a horse is unable to produce sufficient nitric oxide for its lifestyle. In many ways, "bleeding" is very similar to diabetes in humans, (which also involves insufficient production of nitric oxide).

A person with diabetes requires life-long treatment because giving someone insulin does not cure the problem, it only compensates for it. You would not expect a diabetic to be able to stop taking insulin after using it for a month or two.

In the same way, a "bleeder" needs nutritional support for the rest of its life.

Without ongoing supplementation, any horse that recovers from post-race bleeding and resumes its prior lifestyle is almost certain to have the problem return. If your horse is a "bleeder" think of it as being diagnosed with diabetes. The condition can be successfully managed with life-long care, but not cured.
