Can SarStart help control EPM? ""An interesting possibility is that yucca saponins may control the protozoa that cause the fatal disease Equine Protozoal Myeloencephalitis (EPM). Lending support to the saponin suppression of intestinal protozoa theory is that saponins have been investigated as potential antiprotozoal agents against human disease. Saponin-containing plant extracts have protective activity against the human disease leishmaniasis (McClure and Nolan, 1996), which is second in importance only to malaria among the protozoal diseases of humans.""
