One more thing for this time of year. It is the season for spring vaccinations and I know there are multiple lines of thought on this. I have my personal opinion and for those of you that know me I know exactly what that is. This post is for people that have to vaccinate because they're in a boarding situation, go to shows, or believe it is the best thing for their horses.

1. Many horses benefit from using a zeolite powder or NCD2 post vaccination to rid the body of the residual Mercury, aluminum, and other preservatives.

2. I have also found that horses benefit from a liver and or kidney cleanse post vaccination. My preference is the silver lining herb company

3. if your horse shows some back soreness in the center of their back. I find that a blood cleanse is in order.

-no ulcers
-kidney and liver vitality above 8's
-less frequent joint injections

The article below offers some interesting information. However, I disagree with some of the information pertaining insulin resistance and not feeding fruit. Feel free to message me for more information.

So, I took it upon myself to pay attention to horses while working on them over this past year to see if I saw that this is true. To say the least I absolutely saw a correlation. This is a different article, but it offers valuable information.

Sweating from work, or heat and humidity increases a horse's need for salt. It also increases the need for other electrolytes, such as potassium, calcium, and magnesium.
