Ingredients

Pure Seaweed/Kelp (Ascophyllum nodosum)

Guidelines:

• Horses: 15 to 30 grams daily
• Add to feed on a daily basis, if possible, splitting the required amount between two feeds
• Allow up to one month for benefits to be seen

*please note: we do not include feeding instructions on the packaging or include a scoop in the bag or tub.  This is due to the consistency of straight herbs eg roots are more dense than leaves or flowers, and they can be given to a variety of species.  For further research on using straight herbs for animals there are some good books available including Hilary Self's "A Modern Horse Herbal".
