| If so, what do you think of this supplement? I'm debating on trying some for one of mine. I've heard tumeric can help with allergies a bit. Wondering if there are any testimonials before I spend $100 on some |

Location: 100 miles from Nowhere, AR | I switched from Cur-ost (which was AWESOME for allergies) to this to save money and am very happy with it. We started it in January and are just now finishing the tub. My horse has been cough and snot free and is feeling awesome. |

Location: Wyoming | You would be better off buying turmeric in bulk and making your own golden paste, you would save a lot of money. Lots of info on it out there and I have had great results on two horses that have allergies |

Yes to this. There is a turmeric user group on Facebook you can join for support too. Granted, I haven't used it on my horses yet, but I habr made golden paste for my husband before. It's fairly easy.  |

| Question for those that make their own paste..is it difficult to mix all the right amounts? And will the horses eat it? Sorry never heard of this method so I sound dumb here |

I buy my own and feed it. You can check companies to make sure they have certificates making sure herbs are what they say they are ect. It can be a little hard to find but I was told to try herbalcom.com they do say they have all certificates ect. The product has been good quality so far. I am feeding about 25 head right now with no issue. |

| I don't make the paste. I put a couple spoonfuls of the powder in their feed with some pepper, fat is in the renew gold. I have read that horses absorb it better. My old arthritic retired guys are moving great, no runny noses, etc.

| Will picky eaters eat this powder though? I tried an herbal blend and can't get mine to eat it even mixing it with oils in their grain. |

Work up to the amount that you want to feed gradually. Sometimes it is all the oils that are making them not want to eat, so now I just use water, aside from the coconut oil fat source.
Mine are in stalls at night so they get their 'grain' (forage pellet, rice bran pellet and supplement mix) first and I wait until they are done before I feed their hay. Same thing in the morning, they eat their 'grain' inside then get turned out for the day.
If I have a super picky eater, I will add a bit of honey to sweeten it up a bit. I tyically don't have to do it for very long though.
This is the website with the feeding amounts and also has golden paste directions http://turmericlife.com.au/

I would just buy tumeric and supplement with that. Oxygen products are like Avon; many, many people get paid LONG after the product ingredients are paid for.

Regarding picky eaters, yes, 7 of mine that I've tried on organic tumeric (for people) have all eaten it without any hesitation.

I would venture to question this statement. There are typically only 1-2 reps for a particular state or area. It IS NOT a tiered business like avon, thrive, or other products of this nature. The cost comes from the quality of the product, packaging, marketing, research, trials, and any other required elements to ensure the product is beneficial, effective, and safe for your horse.
Of course you can buy your own turmeric and just give to your horse if that is how you choose to manage them.
There is no right or wrong answer as long as you are informed and providing your horse with safe products |
