This is a good article for those of us who battle with poor energy

Well that was super cool, I just had my Integrative medicine doc run a Dna test and Organic acids to help try and figure out how to run this engine better and the results matched perfectly with what’s taken me 30 years to figure out.

Turns out I have a much higher requirement for protein and fats, and I can’t handle carbs according to my genetics, plus I’ve got issues metabolising toxins, and chlorinated shower water will mess up my thyroid function! I also need more iron and copper than most people, something that took years to figure out! I’d better get that chlorine removing shower head off the Gunna do list and into the Done column. The doc said the chlorine in the shower was more relevant to thyroid compromise than even drinking it!!😱😱

Anyhoo, did you know a large part of the reason I share human health info in here as well as horse stuff, is cos I’ve spent 30 yrs battling Chronic fatigue and almost all doctors run screaming from me cos I’m such a difficult to manage case! So, since it’s been so hard for me to keep this unit running I figured others might like to know the things I learn too!

As I say to people, I’m the strongest compromised person you’ll ever meet, how is that so? Due to constantly testing for vitamin & mineral deficiencies, eating basically only meat, fruit n veg, at all meals, & staying fit no matter how awful I feel!

Anyway, it might have been handy to know my genetic tendencies twenty plus years ago, then I would have taken me less time to figure out how to eat for my type! And yes, I know they prolly sell those results to Ch👀na, or Yoookraine so they can make better bio weapons but pfft, I decided so what!

Results of a senate hearing. Please share with all medical people who are still in denial, I have friends who are still lining up for this because the medical cartel is still selling it.

Ahhh, I love trimming feet after a rain soak, it almost makes the job fun. But its reminded me of an idea I had a couple of years ago.

When you have unresolving pathology in hooves, the secret is understanding what the purpose of the structures are. Figuring out what is wrong is not as important as WHY it happened.

I made up an hypothesis a couple of years ago and have been marinating on it over a few thousand feet and several seasons, and in doing so I also figured out why Negative palmer angle is occurring.

Sort out the reason the hoof deteriorated and developed disease and you’ll fix the problem, you don’t need to spend thousands re-imaging them over and over again. I can promise you, the answers and solutions have nothing to do with hormones, nothing to do with bacteria/fungi invading the hoof, it’s all about understanding the anatomy.

It’s similar to fixing chronic back problems, you have to figure out why it really happened.

Why? Was my favourite question when I was a kid, it must have been really annoying 😂

Here you go, just in case you’re still being told it’s not true and it’s safe and effective, 3751 peer reviewed papers on all the harms caused by that conshot. Make sure to forward this onto any medical person still commiting crimes against humanity.

As I’ve mentioned before, I’ve got the detox protocol and the non toxic cancer treatment protocols pinned to my page at the top for anyone who needs the information.

Snort 🙄, how’s that for a dose of media driven peer group pressure! Don’t ever forget, they’ll do it again.

😂😂 I hear even insurance companies don’t want a bar of these vehicles in garages.

Catch of the day! How they happened to have an excavator ready is what I’d like to know?!

I’m breaking in this horse with the owner. I met him 6 weeks ago when he was a freshly gelded wild 6yo horse, who’d only been touched to get gelded and then chucked on a truck. He was untouchable when he arrived and I’ve given the owner who has never started a young horse before, 5 lessons including today.

This is his very first hind foot trim. I have so many people tell me about brumbies who can’t be trimmed 2 - 10 yrs after they’ve been caught, and they attribute that to them being wild, but as this chap proves, with correct John Chatterton Affiliative Horsemanship training, trimming feet for the first time is a piece of cake.

When I finished trimming we ran through some more steps for the owner to practice and then I accidentally nearly hopped on because he simply didn’t care. When they’re started the right way it’s not stressful or dangerous for the horse or rider.

Training purely wild horses is waaaay easier than training horses who’ve had some contact with humans because they have no dirty dangerous defences to deal with and they learn super fast. This chap has a little trauma from his gelding experience so he’s always slower to learn on the left side and had a few flashbacks, but on the right side he learns in an instant. So much fun to have such a clean slate, and so nice not dealing with the teenage brain that you have to put up with 2-6 year olds!

This is brilliant (well not for the horse). It’s a great example of how horses move their hoof landing position to compensate for an unbalanced foot. He’s landing extremely base narrow and consequently putting a massive torsional force up his bones. You can literally see the medial lateral imbalance on those hind feet if you freeze frame it or speed your brain up enough.

It demonstrates nicely why they end up with hock, knee, pastern and stifle arthritis. It’s also the number one reason why they get splints and why speedy cutting happens in TB racehorses. All hoof care practitioners need to watch it and then marinate deeply on it as they love to justify their crooked trimming to me.

Blaming the horses crooked legs is not the reason it’s happening as none of the horses I trim move this way, none of the owners I teach how to trim have horses who have to endure this anymore. Just let it play over and over to allow your brain to catch up with the speed of the limbs.

If you’re an owner or trimmer whose battling with this I’m happy to help you figure out how to fix the problem, it’s not difficult, it’s just a matter of me teaching you how to view the foot in 3D. For some horses I’ll straighten them for you and then you just need to keep them there.

Yep, I’ve seen some wicked side effects from it.
