I feed this to a golden oldie who had a road acident and lost the fluid from his knees. The celery seeds keep him moving freely.

Can you use it as a preventative measure? Is it safe to feed to mares in foal?

So would one feed this to an endurance horse who may be prone to dehydration?

Spirit Essences are based on the Traditional Chinese Medicine Theory of Elements. TCM recognises five elements (unlike Western ideas which are limited to only four): earth, wood, fire, water and metal. Here's a vet's explanation.

As I like to say, "Keep an open mind, but not so open your brain falls out!". With all these modalities, it's a wonder there's any arthritis left! LOL!!

woooooo

Tony who is always really helpful from Northam Chaff, Maddington put me on to the miracle seeds. Some people say "yeah really good - but everyone knows about it" - they don't. We had a riding pony mare some years ago who had arthritis, and we tried everything that we could find or was recommended to us - vet, stockfeeder up north and a lot of experienced horsey types never offered this as a solution or help. I wish we had known.

You are starting to sound like the person with the import license to sell celery seeds Wooooo!!! I would not call them a miracle and I would hope that people just dont feed them willy nilly! If an horse is not moving well etc, I hope they consult a vet first and if they wish to go down the herbal path they talk to someone that is experienced with herbals. Celery also has no "preventative" effect, it is symptomatic at best and the number 1 rule of any treatment is to never treat with an agent unnecessarily.

The only difference I ever saw with using celery seeds...is that I now have flipping celery plants in my paddock...And the horse that was on celery seeds left 5 years ago!!
