                      Location: Here | Announcing our New CuHorse Blanket. CuTec29 copper infused polyester/spandex/copper stretch blanket. Introductory offer with limited amounts at this price $279. Pre-Order yours today. Estimated delivery June 15, 2015 or sooner Available in Large 76-80 XLarge 80-84... Call 806-418-5641 to PreOrder yours today. Or contact one of our dealers listed on our website. This item will be available on our website www.cuhorse.com shortly. Don't miss out on this first run of very high quality CuHorse blankets.
 So you ask what does CuHorse do.. The horses health and well being has always been a primary concern in PHT Products. In developing CuHorse™, PHT set out to not duplicate what was already available in the market place for our equine partners, but rather to develop a unique product that is consistent in quality, readily available, and possess improved attributes for safety and effectiveness. CuTec29® has documented the efficacy and safety of the Copper CuTec29 ® proving it inhibits bacteria and promotes angiogenesis and tissue repair (which only copper ions can achieve, not silver). Copper oxide is at the heart of CuTec29®. The PERMANENT Copper Ion Technology is incorporated into the fiber matrix providing every piece of CuHorse™ with ENHANCED Copper Ion Technology benefits. Copper has potent anti-fungal and antibacterial properties as well as an essential trace element for the normal function of many tissues and is indispensable for the generation of new capillaries and skin. CuTec29® allows copper ions to be released from the yarn which can be beneficial in the healing of cuts, wounds, hard to treat skin pathologies, Copper complexes are highly effective anti-inflammatory agents. The elastic fibers of connective tissue need copper for tensile strength. Wearing copper bracelets is a time-tested anti-inflammatory treatment but the amount of copper absorbed is relative low. With adding CuHorse™ to your horses therapy program, you will be able to safely provide therapeutic copper to your horse. CuTec29 ® is effective in reducing odor control as well. It promotes healthier-looking skin. Because skin regenerates every 2 weeks, the antimicrobial CuHorse ™, can promote wound healing, as infection is known to reduce skin regeneration. With the use of CuTec29® fabric, CuHorse™ continuously reduces bacterial contamination, achieving 99.9% reduction within two hours of exposure. This surface kills greater than 99.9% of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria within two hours of exposure. This surface delivers continuous and ongoing antibacterial action, remaining effective in killing greater than 99.9% of bacteria within two hours. It can continue to kill even after repeated contamination. CuHorse™ helps inhibit buildup and growth of bacteria. Peer reviewed scientific publications show Antimicrobial Copper to be effective against bacteria, viruses, fungi, molds, MRSA, H1N1 Influenza, Clostridium difficile, VRE, Staphylococcus aureus, E-Coli and many more. Bacteria typically are not ‘mobile’ by themselves; they don’t fly or crawl from place to place. They are transported solely by contact. CuHorse ™ help to prevent this transportation.

| what would be some reasons to use the Cuhorse sheet vs PHT vs Magnuhorse sheet? The PHT helps muscle soreness and tendons and ligaments, right? I was wanting to know what conditions warrant which therapy. I am kind of a therapy product hoarder when I can afford them. |

Actually that is a Very good question. The ultimate which is what I am doing is the CuHorse with either the MagnaCu or PHT layered over it. The reason I say either, is because there will be times you will just want to throw on your MagnaCu and then you still get some Copper therapy. The Layering gives More area of coverage with the CuHorse under the mesh. Also this gives you the ability to just use the CuHorse alone. The CuHorse is safe most Pregnant mares. Again always consult your veterinarian especially when it comes to Pregnant mares. Then comes the usually the bottom line. Budget. This gives all of our customers the best, quality therapy at different budges. And they are all made in USA |

Thank you. I always test on myself first. I have a weird system so if something is going to react negatively I usually see the effects. Then if I am good I have a few crippled and grumpy broodies. If it passes them and the other hard core research is there then we send some out for others to try. Then lastly I am grateful to my vet who has multiple degrees and one is on heavy metals. So. This product has numerous human studies and we have done rigorous testing here and at the race track. So yes. I do believe in it and use it. And lastly I see results. |

I don't know that Cheryl was jumping on Julie, asking for research.
In my woman-centered profession (OT) at times we get defensive about research and the implications it may have, or even asking for research to support one treatment modality vs. another. The reality is though, that even a qualitative case study can show a user the methods in which the equine used the equipment and the benefits of it. That helps everybody with a starting point for their use of the product. From there, sometimes people get inspired to do more research on the product - gather data, really prove efficacy. Honestly, research is what helps us advance our practices forward and helps us determine where our money is best spent. Helps advertisers because the product sells itself - it does what it says it will do. Not saying that research needs to be the sole decision maker, certainly not, but it's not an attack either.
Congrats Julie, on your new products.  |

It's like that here also and I will be testing it out as I have found that my Tommie Copper is cool and this is the same material. I use a knee wrap and I have a shirt along with socks. Love Copper! |

But that is the wonderful news about this product. The research is there in the human field with the exact same product. The data is real. And now can be applied to our horses. Like Nto said I am finding this material has a cooling effect. I will be providing more information in days to come. The website I provided has the studies and information. Heck is they can wear it the jungles of South America I think South Texas is safe |

CuHorse is a complementary product to the PHT line. They can be used together. One of the main reasons I went with a solo CuHorse line in addition to the MagnaCu which is the combination of the two products, is 1) For those that don't like Magnetics products 2) For those that would like a lower cost quality therapy product 3) Pregnant mares |

      Location: Beggs, OK | The copper fabric is not heat inducing like you are used to seeing with the ceramic fabric products that are available. I think that's were some people are getting hung up on the "mesh" question. Copper fabric disperses heat and cools the body while increasing circulation. |

I guess I don't understand this.
I am a nutritionist and people/horses/cows/dogs, etc. can absolutely experience copper toxicity. Can you please explain to me why this product will not create a copper toxicity if overused? The body does not just "flush out" excess copper as you claim, or else copper overload (or "copperiedus") would not be possible. There are many credible medical websites that cover this syndrome, its causes, symptoms and when to call the poison control center. The copper does not have to be ingested to cause copper toxicity - it can also occur due to inhalation and dermal (skin) contact/exposure. Copperiedus is definitely considered a heavy metal toxicity.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to be derogatory regarding your product, but I am concerned that because of your comment people will think that overexposure cannot occur. In my opinion, it most certainly can. Using copper as a therapeutic can definitely have some benefits...............IF used in moderation. JMHO............ |

          Location: 100 miles from Nowhere, AR | I've been using some MagnaCu quick wraps on my horse to help his front ankles. They have thinned cartilage and tend to get puffy. I have found these work just as well as BOT for him without the heat. You know how when you use something daily, and it's really working, you start wondering if it's really doing anything anymore? Well, with the rain and the kids' schedules the last 2 days of school, I didn't use those wraps for 3 days. His ankles BLEW UP. I had forgotten how bad they could get because they have been looking so good. After a night with them back on, the puff was gone again. Stay tuned because I'm about to test the CuHorse wraps and see how they compare.  |

This is a very good and fair question. I am sorry I didn't explain it further. CuTEC® is a unique and proprietary copper fiber that utilizes the qualities of copper and permanently binds copper to the fiber matrix of 1) polyester, 2) nylon and 3) spun polyester fibers. Basically this is a Copper of a very pure nature and which is in a proprietary blend of minerals. It is a patented and proven safe level. It is on an ion level not a pure copper blanket. So the level of copper that is absorbed is safe. It is not ingested at high amounts. The copper stays in the fabric and the body takes from the ions what it is wanting. My vet said he would sent me a more detailed explaination later today that will have all the scientifc lingo that you may be looking for. But he said the above is the gest of it. I didn't want you to think I was ignoring this great question. |

There is no toxicity build up worry like there is with silver. What the body doesn't want, it is easily flushed out I guess I don't understand this. I am a nutritionist and people/horses/cows/dogs, etc. can absolutely experience copper toxicity. Can you please explain to me why this product will not create a copper toxicity if overused? The body does not just "flush out" excess copper as you claim, or else copper overload (or "copperiedus" ) would not be possible. There are many credible medical websites that cover this syndrome, its causes, symptoms and when to call the poison control center. The copper does not have to be ingested to cause copper toxicity - it can also occur due to inhalation and dermal (skin ) contact/exposure. Copperiedus is definitely considered a heavy metal toxicity. Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to be derogatory regarding your product, but I am concerned that because of your comment people will think that overexposure cannot occur. In my opinion, it most certainly can. Using copper as a therapeutic can definitely have some benefits...............IF used in moderation. JMHO............
This is a very good and fair question. I am sorry I didn't explain it further. CuTEC® is a unique and proprietary copper fiber that utilizes the qualities of copper and permanently binds copper to the fiber matrix of 1 ) polyester, 2 ) nylon and 3 ) spun polyester fibers. Basically this is a Copper of a very pure nature and which is in a proprietary blend of minerals. It is a patented and proven safe level. It is on an ion level not a pure copper blanket. So the level of copper that is absorbed is safe. It is not ingested at high amounts. The copper stays in the fabric and the body takes from the ions what it is wanting. My vet said he would sent me a more detailed explaination later today that will have all the scientifc lingo that you may be looking for. But he said the above is the gest of it. I didn't want you to think I was ignoring this great question.
Thank you so much for addressing my question. I have been doing physiotherapy on horses for almost 30 years and it always concerns me when people sell things and tell people that they can use them 24/7 with no problems. Most of the time that tells me that they don't really understand how their product really works, as many things can definitely be overdone. :)
I would be really interested in some research and more details about your product. If your vet can provide that it would terrific. I am always looking for other things to recommend to my clients, however it has to be something that I agree with, believe in and have experience with - they count on me to do that before I recommend it.
Thanks again! |

                      Location: Here | Here is the specs on the fabric for those worried about heat retention 13% Spandex 15% Copper 72% Polyester
It resembles the feel and function of the Under Armour Cool Wear which does not have the copper ions in it So Lycra really isn't the correct term For that confusion I apologize. The Spandex gives it the stretch and rebound ability, a lot like jeans |

If not please pm me your name and phone number and the inventor said he would be happy to answer all of your questions regarding all of the proven studies and testing regarding safety. To address this further as I am sure others are asking the same question. There has been extensive testing and studies on this product and they have proven to be safe. It is simply a nonissue. If you think of soluble vs nonsoluble, what you get inside your body is soluble (water food). What is the fabric is nonsoluble. Anything soluble can be toxic if ingested in inproper amounts. Even water and alcohol. The CuTec29 technology has been tested and it is strictly nonsoluble and does not have any ill effects. This is one of the reasons we went with this company's technology. They have the documentation and proof. They have the science.

The ultimate which is what I am doing is the CuHorse with either the MagnaCu or PHT layered over it. The reason I say either, is because there will be times you will just want to throw on your MagnaCu and then you still get some Copper therapy. The Layering gives More area of coverage with the CuHorse under the mesh. Also this gives you the ability to just use the CuHorse alone. The CuHorse is safe most Pregnant mares. Again always consult your veterinarian especially when it comes to Pregnant mares. Then comes the usually the bottom line. Budget. This gives all of our customers the best, quality therapy at different budges. And they are all made in USA |

Does the copper affect the magnets? I thought you could not put PHT on metals? Or am i confused? I just would not want to damage what ever I decide to go with.
Thank you so much for your response. |

A lot will determine what type ie skin, tumor etc. Please consult with your vet as they will know your horse's medical history and needs. There is a lot of information on google about copper with the various types of cancers. |
