Question: |
|
Are Herbs Safe for Horses? |
|
Answer: |
Herbs have been used by man in caring for himself and his
animals, as food and medicine for centuries. Herbs work with
the body, not against it, to strengthen and build the body
gradually so the body itself becomes stronger. Herbs can be
easily compared with food; simply put, they feed the body. Just
as with food, herbs need to be used with wisdom and knowledge
and not indiscriminately.
There are herbs that are infection fighters, anti-bacterial,
antiseptic, hormonal, diuretic, antihistamine, laxative,
antispasmodic, cardiac, digestive, nervine, relaxant, etc.
Herbs perform certain functions in the body, just as certain
foods contain vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that help
certain areas of the body.
Herbs store indefinitely. They lose approximately 30% of their
potency in the first 24 to 36 hours after picking, but are
stable after that if kept in a cool, dry place.
How herbs taste generally indicates how to use them. The mild,
pleasant tasting herbs can be used freely. These are usually
the tonic herbs that help every part of the body. Bitter
tasting herbs are usually the medicinal herbs, which are used
in times of illness or to correct certain problems. |

Question: |
|
How does your horse colic remedy work? |
|
Answer: |
|
This natural herbal combination contains antioxidants, which
are key to the immune system. Our Horse Colic Remedy also
contains herbs that are highly nutritional as well as
stimulating. Stimulation is the key to healing. When the
horse’s body and its organs are properly stimulated, they will
heal, cleanse and begin to function normally. Blood flow is
regulated so it influences the heart immediately. Frequency of
the pulse is not increased but given more power. Horse Colic
Remedy normalizes blood pressure, and stops internal bleeding,
fights infection and promotes healing. This combination
increases the secretions of the liver (bile), stomach, pancreas
and lower bowel, but is not an irritant to the bowel. Promotes
peristaltic action of the bowel and tones the intestines. One
of the strongest laxatives, it regulates the colon and is not
habit forming. |
|
This combination contains natural antibiotics, effective
against toxic bacteria, viruses, and fungus. It protects
against infection, helps detoxify all the body systems,
improves tones and strengthens entire physical condition
(strengthens blood vessels, builds endurance and energy).
Contact healer, coats, relaxes and relieves stress, heals all
inflamed tissues including irritated and inflamed mucus
membranes of stomach, bowels, and kidney. Good for ulcers (some
of the pain relievers the vet administers to your horse for
colic can often form stomach ulcers). Relieves stomach pain,
expels stomach and colon gas, promotes relaxation and kills and
expels parasites. |

|
Question: |
|
How is this formula administered? |
|
Answer: |
|
Awesome Horse, Colic Remedy is administered orally. It is
imperative that the remedy is absorbed directly into the
bloodstream by being given orally it can readily be absorbed
under the tongue where it can go to work immediately dilating
the blood vessels which brings the horse out of shock and slows
rapid heart beat. If you were to tube the horse it would bypass
this opportunity and not be as effective. Never mix the remedy
with feed! |
|
|
|
Question: |
|
Your site mentions it can be given if a vet hasn't seen the
horse yet? |
|
Answer: |
TRUE. Chances are most often neither you, your help, or any
observer will be on sight at first onset of colic symptoms in
your horse. Therefore, Awesome Horse, Colic Remedy should be
administered immediately due to the time element involved would
your horse have twisted gut, requiring surgery in time to
prevent potential serious damage to the large intestines.
Awesome Horse, Colic Remedy should be administered immediately
anytime your horse displays colic symptoms rather than subject
your horse to painkillers in order to deal with the colic,
which most assuredly will cause stomach ulcers inhibiting full
recovery from horse colic.
Know that in horses, abdominal pain can easily be mistaken as
foaling, tying-up or kidney/bladder problems in which case your
horse could derive a certain amount of health benefits also.
Good preventive measures means you have not only educated
yourself as to the seriousness and many types of Horse Colic
but you have also made the decision to always have Awesome Horse, Colic Remedy Kit mixed and ready with the rest of your
emergency supplies, you never travel with out it, and you
always keep an extra kit on hand. Understanding that in caring
for your horse you will not always be aware of what your horse
has ingested whether in the pasture or in the stall. |

|
Question: |
|
How do you recommend getting it down the horse? |
|
Answer: |
|
In Case of Horse Colic Emergency, shake bottle and administer
to the horse through the mouth since this method goes into the
system faster. If your horse is down, stand behind the horse,
resting your right knee on the horses shoulder if possible and
hold the horses head up. (you may need help). Pour remedy down
horses throat directly from the bottle, (insert bottle into the
back side of mouth) your horse should swallow about half. Wait
30 minutes. Your horse should respond immediately. Save the
remaining portion for another emergency. If no improvement,
administer the other half. |

Question: |
|
Is there any problem using Awesome Horse, Colic Remedy in
conjunction with FasTract probiotic products? |
|
Answer: |
There is absolutely no problem using Awesome Horse, Colic
Remedy in conjunction with FasTrack Products.
Many alternative health experts agree that total health begins
with a healthy digestive tract. FasTract products main function
helps ensure and promote proper digestion, aid nutrient
absorption and plus the horses immune system. FasTract reduces
toxins and helps alleviate stress resulting a much calmer
healthier animal.
Unlike FasTrack, Awesome Horse, Colic Remedy should never be
mixed with food and while Awesome Horse, Colic Remedy can be
used in smaller doses once or twice a month to help prevent
horse colic or aid in healing the horse's digestive tract after
having suffered a colic emergency, Awesome Horse, Colic Remedy
needs to be (Your First Aid Antidote) when dealing with a horse
colic emergency.
When used in conjunction with one another it is wise to
understand while FastTract and Awesome Horse, Colic Remedy can
very much compliment eachother, both perform very different
functions |
