First of all, I couldn't be more pleased with the service MadBarn offers of analyzing my horse's diet and having a nutritionist review it. I took advantage of being able to speak to the nutritionist and it was very helpful. I was pleased that she did not try to get me to buy a whole bunch of products. AminoTrace+ was her suggestion and my mare has now been on it for six months. One particular, and unusual result was that her eye stopped tearing. The mare's left eye had been tearing moderately for about 5 years. Her tear ducts were flushed twice by my vet, with no change. One summer I kept her on an antihistamine for 5 months with no real change. My vet thought that perhaps she just has a bit smaller duct for that eye. Well, I am amazed to say that the tearing stopped not long after sta...

I started using this product this summer with my 19 yr old PSSM1 mare. She has always exhibited resp. stress (heavy breathing out of proportion to the level of exercise) when trail riding up hills or perhaps an easy canter in the arena. That has absolutely corrected itself with the use of AlCar. She now can be exercised and ridden like a normal horse. What a joy! Thank you to Dr. Kellon for the suggestion.

So far we have been very please with the switch to the W-3 oil. Horses coats look great and they seem to thrive on it.

I really appreciated the nutrition advice. I had my horse on a nutrition program when we were competing but now that she's retired with PPID and EOTRH, I knew some thing was missing from her low sugar diet. The evaluator identified the piece of the puzzle missing, and I've had my horse on the 3 Aminos on top of her existing vitamin and mineral supplement and she's been doing very well on it! Much appreciated that the analysis fills in the gaps without needing a complete overhaul (in my case).

I had an excellent nutrition consultation with Dr. Christine Latham from MadBarn. After analyzing my easy keeper pony's diet, she recommended adding Mad Barn's Amino Trace. Instead of the high NSC grain she was getting, Christine explained that adding W3 oil would be a safer source of calories and would also help support my mare's joints. My former rescue pony looks fantastic on a diet of alfalfa mix hay, ration balancer, MadBarn's Amino Trace, and W3 oil. She is an eventing pony, but goes barefoot because the supplement helps her grow strong hooves. Her coat gets whiter each year, but her tail has grown thick and long. Thank you, MadBarn!

I love that Mad Barn offers hay analysis- the process was so simple and quick. Also appreciate the option of the wet chem analysis. And, the guidance interpreting all the details was really helpful and very educational.

I started giving my horse MadBarn Milk Thistle at the beginning of this spring after he foundered late summer the year before. No recurring laminitic episode since, and while I’m not sure how much of that is due to the milk thistle, what has been noticeable is a bog reduction in seasonal allergies. For the first time in 4 years he did not lose hair on his face & stomach this summer, and less prolonged coughing which he’s struggled with during peak pollen times in spring/fall. I feel like the milk thistle is a cost effective piece of his maintenance puzzle.
