A. Adding Aloe Vera drinking Gel to the diet, 120mls daily, can help whilst also applying Aloe Veterinary spray and using Aloe Vera Gelly topically.

Q. Is Aloe suitable for use in horses with Arthritis?
A. Yes, our Forever Freedom drinking Gel which is Aloe blended with Glucosomine, Chondroitin and MSM Sulphate is a very safe product to give to horses suffering from joint problems. Suggested dosage is 80 to 250mls a day.

Q. Can Aloe support and improve digestive aliments in Horses & Ponies?
A. Certainly, Aloe Vera is very beneficial particularly where inflammation is present. Conditions such as: stomatitis, gingivitis and oral ulceration can all be improved though using Aloe.

"I have noticed that it affects their whole well being from their coats to their feet and everything in between. All last winter they wintered out with only haylage and Aloe Vera and I had no problems with them."

Susan Harris - Shipston on Stour

"In the last couple of years my Dartmoor pony suffered with a summer attack of mud fever. I was advised to soften the scabs with Aloe Gelly, wash the affected areas in Aloe soap, dry thoroughly and then apply Propolis crème for it's natural antibiotic properties and it also acts as a barrier cream. Within a relatively short period the symptoms disappeared. It is important to note that you should continue to use the products until the symptoms have gone completely as if you don't the condition may reappear."
