Celery seeds are useful for supporting the horse with joint stiffness. Celery seed is particularly good as a digestive tonic. It has a warming effect which will help if the horse is run-down or chilled. Can also stimulate appetite.

Feeding guidelines: 5-10g daily


Feeding as an Infusion

Many herbs, including Celery seeds, can be fed in their dried form, but this may mean that it sometimes takes a while for full effects 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. .
