Du Huo Harmonize Joints 500g (Equine)

ndications:
This blend addresses discomfort in the joints and limbs caused by training and everyday activities. The horse that would benefit most from this blend is generally weak, has a poor hair coat, and lacks luster in the eyes. The horse has achy joints and limbs resulting from prolonged wear and tear to one or multiple joints or limbs. Lower back discomfort may also accompany these issues. This will often get worse in cold, damp weather.

Chinese Theory:
The Chinese theory behind this blend is that it expels wind and dampness, disperses the obstruction, and tonifies the deficiency. Joint discomfort is considered an obstruction of the flow of energy, or Qi, which causes the ache. Herbs in this blend are used to dispel obstruction, thereby managing discomfort in the joints. Wind and dampness are considered external pathogenic factors that have invaded the body and affected the joints. Damp and wind are expelled from the body by these herbs.

The obstruction of the flow of Qi to the limbs can cause deficiencies in the kidneys and liver. Tonifying these organs helps support the body's natural vitality and liveliness.

Suggested Use (for the 1000 lb Horse):
Traditional Formulas: Administer two (2) tablespoons twice daily for the initial twenty days. Then, administer two (2) tablespoons once a day thereafter. Note: If the horse refuses to eat herbs, start with small amounts in the grain until the horse is accustomed to the taste, or try the Flax Plus version of this formula. Almost all horses will eat the herbs in their grain.

Flax Plus: Administer one (1) scoop twice daily for the initial twenty days. Then, administer one (1) scoop daily. Six tablespoon scoop included.
