Mandy, your post brings a question to my mind and gets me wondering if I've been doing things wrong all along. Sabrina has been on rinsed BP and ODTB with E & Mag added. She was doing well. About a mo

Mandy, thanks for your answer. Yes, we rinse, soak for several hours, and rinse again. We also soak (but no rinse) the cubes in hot water so they become like wet, cut grass. I guess I just wasn't sure

The June, 2011 issue of The Horse has a very short article titled "Psyllium for Glucose and Insulin Control?" on page 13. I can't find anything in the discussions when I search psyllium. Is this somet

I started using Acetyl L-Carnitine around 4/1 of this year. The changes in Sabrina are amazing. Most of the puffiness around her eyes has disappeared, she's lost some weight, and all-around seems shin

Barb, thank you and Lorna for the links. I feel much better now, since I couldn't see how I could afford the capsules. I've put Sabrina's son on Al-Car also. Although he's never really gone to full-bl

Sabrina has slimmed down in the belly area, and she's developed a "waist". The bloat, or puffiness above her eyes has gone way down, although not completely disappeared. She never had heavy fat pads a

Sorry, I've been offline since Saturday AM. Candy, I do think some belly bloat disappeared. Kathy, thanks for the link. And, Deena, I believe that's correct - 1 gram per 100#. However, I read somewher

Margaret, please accept my sympathies. We most all know how hard this is. Most of us have been there. Sometimes my greatest consolation is knowing that at least God gave us a particular baby to care f

Sabrina has had another mild flair up with absolutely no changes to her diet - tested hay, ODBC, plain, soaked beet pulp, Vit. E, Magnesium, Al-Car, iodized salt. Cubes and beet pulp are fed 3x daily,

Thank you, Linda. But I'm really confused. I read many members supplement with Jiaogulan. Should I use this anyway? Also, I can't be sure it's cold-induced laminitis, so should I try the AAKG, adding

Carol, I'm so sorry. I'm glad you had the opportunity to make his passing as loving and peaceful as possible. Gayle & Sabrina Fairview, TN

On 1/17/12 I posted that Sabrina had another flairup (mild). Since then I ordered and received AAKG and Ginseng. I had no idea why she was sore-footed again, so I waited until she seemed stable again

Hi, Barbara. Thanks for the reply. "It has been a warm winter here in Tennessee, but last week and through the weekend we had a cold snap with rain, some snow, and temperatures into the teens and twen

Dr. Kellon, thank you and Jaini both. I did stop both the AAKG and the ginseng yesterday. I do not have any J herb now, but will order tonight. Meanwhile, should I temporarily use the ginseng alone fo

Jaini, I forgot to ask you, what is "body work"? Gayle and Sabrina 2006 Fairview, TN

I've ordered the J-herb. We're set to order the boots, but I want to call the company this AM to verify size. She was very lame this AM. She was lying down, and it took awhile for her to get up. I kno

Martina, thank you. I just left their site to check back on this one for any answers. Do you use the Therapeutic No Bow or the Therapeutic Quick. It looks like the Quick comes down further on the foot

That's just it, Martina. We don't know what's causing it. We have her diet pretty well controlled. She never gets any grass. Her weight is good now. Her insulin is high for no known reason. I need the
