I spend good amount of time reading horse magazines, visiting popular blogs, attending expos trying to learn as much as I can about horses and I have noticed that over the last year or so the amount of companies selling horse supplements has increased dramatically. There are literally hundreds if not thousands of supplements that you can choose to give to your horse: horse feeds and calmers to garlic supplements. There are literally hundreds if not thousands of different things you can buy at a supplement store that can help your horse and in today's article I would like to talk with you about garlic for horses. We are going to learn why thousands of horse owners all over the world use garlic for horses and what forms of garlic are the best.
Horses love garlic. I don't know why, but they love it and not only garlic for horses can be given to your horse as a treat, but they are also very good because of several other reasons and every horse owner who cares about his horse's health should use garlic for horses.
For example a lot of horse owners use garlic to prevent flies and other insects from biting their horse. We all know that flies and other annoying insects can cause bumps, lumps and rashes, and garlic supplements act as a preventative measure against this, because as a result of using garlic supplements your horse's sweat will produce odour that will keep flies and other biting insects away.
In addition to this garlic supplements are packed with natural antioxidants. We, humans, tend to eat a lot of garlic when we are ill to strengthen our immune system and help our organism fight againts diseases. Garlic supplements for horses serve the same purpose. You can give garlic to your horse to strengthen it's immune system.
Finally it has been proven and tested that garlic supplements can help to deter tapeworms, pinworms and roundworms, but they should not replace regular wormers.
When selecting garlic supplements you want to look out for liquid form of garlic, because it is much easier to absorb.
The point I want to make in this article is that garlic is great for everyone and it does not matter in which horse riding discipline you are involved in. It does not matter whether you ride for recreational reasons or if you compete at eventing or show jumping events - you should use garlic supplements to strengthen your horses immune system and to help him to get rid of annoying flies.
