| SO before curost my allergic to everything horse with arthritis, who was on previcox daily, would always put me in the top of the 3D.. Like clock work... it was a nice pay check.. lol NOW..... bugger is running harder, turning harder, feels to darn good. No coughing to slow him down and no pain to slow him down either. 2 months after starting it he moved up to placing in 2D, liked that idea. Doesn't matter where the checks come from they spend the same. lol NOW... last 4 runs BOTTOM of 1D every darn time!!!! Like almost last in 1D every single time and no pay checks.. lolol He looks like a million bucks, no limp, no injections, no previcox, no ventipulman, just 2 scoops of EQ TOTAL and 1 scoop of pure day he runs and day after. DARN IT!!!!! THe old fool actually rolled in the warm up area after his run yesterday (Extremely dusty and I would never let him do it before cause he would hack a cough at the trailer for an hour) and went to bucking and kicking and snorting like a 2 year old. ALmost pulled away from me... Now Dr. Schell needs to create a product to make him run just a little faster. lololol

Location: Where the long tails flow, ND | Cur-Ost is giving me a work out too! Literally! My mare that was allergic to the world thinks LONG trotting, during our miles of conditioning, is so much fun that I can't even post it, and then I start laughing and almost fall off.
I have 4 horses on it, 3 with no prior conditions, and 1 was my allergy ridden mare. They all look pnemominal for December in North Dakota especially!

Location: Where the long tails flow, ND | Depending on the blend you are using, EQ Total Support is $120, there is a price break if you order 2 bags on any formula.
But you have to think of the bigger picture, many of us have cut costs buy no longer spending the money on supplements, prescriptions, aides, processed feeds, etc. This alone is huge for me personally. I feed 2lbs of whole oats, and a half cup of flax seed, once a day.

Location: Louisiana | I'm about to start my gelding on CurOst. Probably after Christmas.
The first month will be pricey, but after that I'm expecting to pay around $100ish. If it really works it will save me a ton of money in injections with this horse.
I've been doing my own research and have found where tons of people are using the main ingredient for various diseases like RA. With success!! |

Take before pictures, and then again after 2 weeks or so. You will be amazed, I was! I had zero expectations on 2 of my horses that didn't have 'issues'.
Good Luck! |

| I edited my post. I said 2 scoops previcox, I meant 2 scoops TOTAL SUPPORT. Having said all of this, I have my 4 year old on ONE SCOOP total and ONE SCOOP Stomach. SO not the full dose and I do see great results with him to. I bump it up to 2 scoops on race days and add PURE EQ for him as well on race days. My horse I referenced above will start going really sore on Left HIND and RF when he needs his injections. Like grade 2-3 lame. His injections have always lasted 6 months for hocks and 9-10 for Coffin Joint. I am at 8 months on hocks now and still good and crossing fingers. Even if for some reason he does come up sore I am going to consult with Dr. Schell before injecting again.. Maybe add more PURE EQ with some rest and see if he can come back strong with no injections. Time will tell. |

I agree with that....... but I am asking why other products have to have a ad and he doesnt . Unless he does.. because every week there are a ton of plugs for this product which is GREAT that it works but the rules state no advertising and so I ask again does he have a AD?if not then I will make sure the other products with NO ad get to post as well.. |

No idea, I just answer where applicable and usually it has to do with Cur-Ost being in my answer.

I didn't even think about that, and I totally AGREE, there is so much good stuff out there I don't see a problem with anyone giving their personal experience with a product. Just like the posts about THE, AE, OXY, etc. Now if I was a rep or said " Contact me to place an order" etc. then that would not be cool in my book. I am not selling. With what it costs me to keep 2 horses on it, I WISH I could sell it.. lol |

| I'll be finishing up allergy shots on my older gelding in a few months and need to order some more, I'm terribly tempted to try CurOst on him. The cost is substantially more and I don't have him on anything other than the shots now to take him off of and balance the cost out, but given what you guys are saying if it'll give us that little extra boost to get up into the money we're so close to most of the time... |

No it isnt.. replys are not original posts so id say no.. the rules state noone is to "start" a post advertising.. im not sure if its the same .. but my point to BHW is .. if one can do it others should to.. ALL others, not a select few ya know? |

Location: NE Texas | When a product is as effective as these are, there's no need for advertising. The company to my knowledge has never advertised, and I asked Dr. Schell why several months ago, as had I not took matters into my own hands and googled the heck out of a million different things, I would have never found them. His reply was, "Costs alot of money to advertise. We're a small operation, consisting of myself, my wife, and my daughter. Inevitably advertising costs must be added into the product cost, and honestly, we aren't trying to be Platinum or SmartPak. This is a niche operation and has spread by word of mouth; I mix 99% of these products by hand on a daily basis."
The reason so many people are sharing their results with the Cur-OST product is because of the difference it truly makes in our horses. Several of us have horses that were given no hope to ever compete again....mine for respiratory issues, others for GI issues, joint issues, navicular, etc. Some had horses who had become dangerous due to severe stomach issues. If by us sharing our stories so that others may have the opportunity to help their horses, for that I cannot apologize, as I spent thousands of dollars, hours and hours of research, exhausted all options medically trying to save my horse. If by me sharing offends someone, I won't apologize for that, as I feel it's important for us to help each other, educate each other that there might just be a better way, and that better way might just prevent many of the issues that plague our horses today from chronic arthritis to recurrent epm, as it is all tied into the hindgut and immune response, which is what this program is geared toward managing. I don't think we're doing anything illegeal by sharing our stories so that others may see it and be able to help their horse as well.
I certainly don't mind sharing with anyone what I spend monthy on my horses. I will copy and paste below what I shared with someone who private messaged me a while back. Just yesterday I was able to buy my oats for about half the price of what will be read below, so even this can be reduced. I figured everything on the high side, but could be reduced due to the fact I buy in bulk, so I get the discount for buying more than one bag at a time.
Currently i'm spending roughly $8.26 per day, per horse for all feed, hay, and my Cur-OST supplements, which comes out to $247.80 per month, per horse for everything except water. And even that is high, b/c not all hores get the one supplement, but it's only $.42 a serving, so was easier to include it than not.
I feed alfalfa hay which I pay $14 a bale for. Roughly there are about 12 flakes per bale, so that equals $1.16 per flake. I feed 2 - 3 flakes per day. Let's just say three, so that's $3.48 per day in hay.
I feed whole oats once daily and feed between 1 and 2 pounds in the evenings. My oats cost around $12 for a 50 pound sack, usually less. At a rate of 1.5 pounds per serving, that is $.36 per serving. So now with hay and feed, i'm at $3.84 per day, per horse.
With my Cur-OST, all of my horses are on the Total Support, which if you buy one bag at a time, it's $120 a 30 day supply. I ususally buy 4 at a time, so I get the price break, but I figured on the max cost, so at $120/day, that is $4.00 per serving. I have two horses who get the Adapt & Calm, which costs $25 for a 60 day supply, so that is $.42 per serving. With the two Cur-OST products costing $4.42 per day together, plus my oats and alfalfa, i'm at $8.26.

Yes it does cost alot.. to advertise.. and I agree with your post 100% .. my point is there are a few small companies that cant afford it either and go on the products results to get word out on here to so they should be able to be discussed and promoted as well. that was my point. that was all I am stating.. Im glad your stuff works good.. we all need to have options .. |

So anytime someone says they love Previcox
Or love Platinum.
Or love hock injections.
Or love their brand of dewormer.
Or love their Double J saddle.
Or their PHT wraps.
Etc
That is then automatically advertising?
There's a difference with a person coming on here to promote THEIR product. It's free speech when someone wants to share success they've personally had with a product.

Location: 31 lengths farms | And Cur_ost is costing me a lot of TIME and money, LOL!!! With the addition of Cur_ost I am back to riding my head shaker full time instead of only "on the good days" even with meds so I now have 3 I have to keep ridden instead of 2 and been able to return to the barrel pen for 2 day events on the mare with the old stifle injury. This spring I may be cussing the product, my gelding should be back from the abscess and if the headshaker mare keeps improving the way she has been there may be 3 heads peeking out of the trailer come this spring which will cost me more gas $$$. Its a good problem to have :-) |

Location: NE Texas | Interesting point regarding sensitivity to certain things in products and feeds. Smokingirlie had allergy tests done on her mare and she tested positive to being allergic to both oats and alfalfa and was highly reactive when fed them. She is now eating oats twice daily and back on alfalfa as well. When the immune system isn't functioning properly and is over reacting it can give a false positive and absolutely can cause sensitivity to things that normally wouldn't be a problem if all were functioning correctly.
All ingredients are listed on the labels, and i'm certain Dr. Schell would be happy to discuss further if there were a question regarding a particular herb.

Yes, I was just going to say that. I thought I was going to have to feed my horse candy bars, it was abouy the only thing she wasn't allergic to! |

That is why you should talk to Dr. Schell since it is his product. He will know better than any of us. I usually email him or post on secondvet.com with my questions. He has never failed to answer any questions I have had. It may take a couple hours, but he will get back to you. He is a very nice man who is willing to share his knowledge. I don't think he comes on here to answer questions, that may be why Cur Ost posts font get deleted but moved to product research. |

| I just started my horse on total cur ost. She has ulcers & allergies. It took about a week to get her to eat it. I'll just be starting 2scoops twice a day now that she's eating it! Sure hope I have the results y'all have had. My question is when I ordered it there was a place to put in coupons? Does anyone know where we could get coupons? Looks like a great product it's just so pricey :) |

| I can't justify the cost for my horse but I have been using the human version. I have terrible sinus trouble, a little allergy and a little sensitivity to weather but it makes me feel out of my head.
First I tried the HU Pure + Immune. I did feel better with it. I found I had to take the full end recommended dose to feel better. It also seemed to regulate my stomach.
I'm trying the HU Ultimate right now. I'll be lucky if I can finish the bag. It is so gross. I gag and skip days it is so gross so I don't feel better right now because I can't choke down the recommeded dose.
With both of them I have to drink it out of a glass glass or it will stain the plastic.
That being said, I will continue but next order I will try the HU Pure alone. |
