We all want whats best for our horses, while being mindful of our wallets. For the past couple of years, I have been trying to develop a more natural way of keeping our horses, moving away from processed feeds to a more 'whole food", forage first diet. At the recommendation of a well respected ferrier, I looked into Silver Lining Herbs to help address issues my horse was having with his feet. He shared with me that the kidneys are the closest organ related to the hoof health, and that clients of his who used SLH Kidney support saw the difference in the hooves. So, (after trying countless other products) we gave it a try. There was no immediate difference, but with time we definitely saw improvements. We used a few different products: Foot and Bone (daily), but also adding the 2 month Kidney cleans, Joint Support (he broke his coffin bone and a chip moved into his joint capsul) and Immune Support. Like I said, the results were slow and gradual, and it wasn't until I took him off the supplements that I saw how much he truly benefited from them. As mentioned before, his hooves have always been an issue for us, but while on the suppliments his abscesses and brushing went away, and for the first time every he had sole! About 4-6 months after stopping the SLH, he developed another abscess, and we have been battling brushing, again...
So, we are back to SLH! I can now say, with proof of my own horse, that this stuff is the real deal (I have other experiences with their INF-X, a "natural" antibiotic, but I'll share that another time). We are still living the natural lifestyle that I have wanted for him (Did you know that herbs are the purest form of vitamins and minerals, and easiest for the body to absorb?) and their customer service is the best around! You can take a quiz on their website and they will give you recommendations on what they think your horse needs (another thing I love about them, they treat the CAUSE not the SYMPTOMS).
Charlie Brown Stables is excited to be a local place for you to get your suppliments! Reach out for more information! We have special deals for first time buyers.
Oh, and one more thing, they have a line of products for dogs and humans as well! I personally love their Everyday! Great way for me to get all my vitamins and minerals in!
