| Anyone feed espsom salts to horses and if so for what? I remember in the day before all the supplements hitting the market we fed espsom salts as a source of magnesium for various reasons. I asked my husband to pick up epsom salt to do a soak on a horse and he picked up the food supplement . I was thinking of supplementing my horse with it. Cheaper than my current supplement. |
