Did you know that horses have been recorded showing the same patterns of brain activity and the same brain chemical changes that correspond to a particular human emotion or mood state on brain scans? It is logical for us to assume that they are experiencing similar feelings as humans!

We love receiving all of your powerful stories, so keep them coming…

I put Elmer back on GastroMend XC during the time he usually gets his hocks injected in springtime. That’s when his ulcers seem to flare up shortly after being sedated. I started them before his appointment and continued for 2 bags worth. During that time, he had a small eye injury, so he needed to be sedated 2 additional times! Knocking on wood but it’s now July and he’s still doing great! Looking pretty good for a 22-year-old TB! I can’t say enough about your supplement.
