This message is from: Jean Ernest <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi Fred,
I would think that the Evitex (Liquid Chastberry) might be used for treatment of Cushings disease. Does your 31 year old mare have Cushings? Laminitis is a problem in Cushings. Lots of information on insulin resistance and Cushings in the files on the Cushings Yahoo list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/EquineCushings You have to join to access the files, but there is a ton of information in the files. Jean in Fairbanks, Alaska, sunny and dry, red-flag conditions for wild-land fires We buy it by the gallon as our old mare (31 years) also gets it for old age >stiffness. > >Recently, on the advice of our vet, we moved to a combination of Corta-Flx >and a British product called Evitex (Liquid Chasteberry). We buy it from a >local vet supply house but it can be obtained directly from >http://www.emeraldvalleyequine.com who are the importers. Using this has >been cheaper than the LaminaSaver and has been equally effective. > >The mini has been on the Chasteberry formula PLUS Corta-Flx for over a year >without any further founder problems. Hooves are sound with no separation.
