Hawthorn Berry Powder 900g

I have recently started to stock the powdered form of the hawthorn berries. This is because I feel the active ingredients are more actively absorbed by the horses gut, when in powdered form.

Hawthorn berries have a beneficial action on blood flow, blood pressure and heart rate. Hawthorn is one of the best tonics for the heart and circulatory system.

The berries contain flavonoids which have the distinct action of dilating the peripheral blood vessels, which will improve blood supply to affected areas.

It has the ability to normalise blood pressure, which can be helpful in cases of navicular and laminitis.

Feeding Guidelines: Feed 10-15g daily

Feeding as an Infusion

Many herbs, including Hawthorn Berries, can be fed in their dried form, but this may mean that it sometimes takes a while for an improvement to be seen.

There is a way to speed up the effect! By simply making an infusion with the herb, the active constituents are made more readily available and are more easily absorbed by the horse.

Ideally, add a ½ litre/pint of boiling water to the herbs to be given that day. When cooled, the whole infusion (including the herbs) can be used to dampen down the horses feed. If access to a kettle is not practical, soaking overnight in cold water will also help to release the active constituents.
