Featured Success Stories
From Ulcer Discomfort to Happy Performance Horse
“After two months on Equine Chia, you can see the huge difference in FelinasLadyMohawk. She is eager and happy to enter the arena and run. I believe Equine Chia is an essential ingredient to all of my horses’ health.”
— Dreux LaVelle Clark, Chasing Time Performance Horses, LLC
From Withdrawn to Loving and Comfortable
“I’m so impressed with Equine Chia. I have a rescue Thoroughbred with ulcers and stifle problems. Within a few weeks, his moods completely turned around. He became a loving, wonderful horse. On three occasions I ran out, and his behavior went back. I plan to never run out again.”
— Jenna, Southern California
Senior Horse Mobility & Performance
“After about a month on Equine Chia, Luna was striding out of her stall with no swelling or stiffness. She won a Jumper Championship at 3'3" and fox hunted for over two hours with no bute before or after. I am not willing to take her off Equine Chia.”
— Sue, Vermont
Metabolic Horse Support
“Dieting, obese and insulin-resistant horses are hard to feed, but chia makes an amazing result in helping keep them from having blood sugar spikes and lows. Hershey, a rescue horse, arrived very malnourished. Just four weeks later he looked like a different horse. Chia was instrumental in his recovery.”
— Casey, The Golden Carrot Horse Rescue
Sand Clearing & Whole-Horse Benefits
“I originally bought Equine Chia for sand-clearing benefits because my picky Thoroughbred will not eat anything with psyllium in it. Now my other two horses are benefiting too. My spotted draft has reduced inflammation and laminitis. My Quarter Horse cross has a remarkably smooth, soft coat.”
— Cindy, Washington
Senior Sand Colic, Mobility & Wellness Support
“We love the chia seed! Our Quarter Horse is now 36. We chose chia seed to treat him for sand colic. After three months, our vet said his heart murmur improved and he has more mobility and flexibility in his joints. Thank you for a great product!”
— Jan
