I'm a skeptic. Especially when it comes to supplements for the horses. In my 40 years of owning, riding/driving and showing I've seen a lot of fads come and go, including many that didn't work. In late summer (August) we noticed that the boys had inflamed guttural pouches, were coughing and had thick, white mucus in their nostrils after work. Our vet prescribed a course of anti-histamines and things improved, but as soon as we'd back off the antihistamine, the symptoms would reappear. There had to be a better way to treat than continuing to treat with antihistamines for weeks on end - but what? We follow Dr. Kellon's work so I was surprised when I saw the studies about supplementing with Spirulina - OK, so we've got some science to back this up. We've been off the antihistamines for 6 we...

2020 was a poor hay year for my area. Yield was low and quality lower than normal. Mad Barn's Omneity kept my horse healthy and in good condition through the winter without the need to increase his normal feed to compensate for the lower quality hay. I accidentally ordered this product when intending to reorder the Omneity pellets. I decided to try it and as it turns out my horse is happier eating the powder mixed with his feed than he was with the pellets.

My horses love W-3! My 25yr old TB is acting much less stiff and our laminitic/EMS Connemara seems to be doing much better and more comfortable since adding W-3 to their diets. I’ve since started giving it to all my horses! This should be in every horses’ diet!!! Highly recommend!!!

Was a little skeptical after trying so many different products ( herbs, cough syrups.. etc..) and spending a *** load of money on them over the past 5 years for my Arabs winter dry cough.. So when I stumbled across Spirulina I thought this is the product I'll try this winter. Totally love the product!! Amazed I finally found something that actually worked...Just wished I had stumbled across it a few years ago.. Boi is on his 2nd bag, I give him 20grams morning and night mixed with plain beet pulp, W3 oil and omneity. Definitely 5 stars.

Amazing result after 2 weeks my 10yo gelding with equine asthma (heaves) is 100% improved! His coughing was so bad this summer I thought he would have to go on steroids but decided to do my research and try this product first. Cannot believe he no longer coughs and is so much more willing to work. Thank you!

This oil smells like popcorn butter and my picky horse actually likes it! Works wonders for my horse with allergies (heaves). I've noticed an incredible improvement the next day as she wasn't coughing and she was also breathing much better. I highly suggest this oil for horses with allergies/inflammation, it works! Price is also extremely affordable.

My horse has been on high dose vitamin E for a few years. His blood is checked regularly to confirm the dosage. Before Mad Barn vitamin E was available I was using Elevate E which is a great product but very expensive. Mad Barn vitamin E is equal to or better and is less expensive, especially when having to feed high doses. Love it!

Didn’t believe this would help my mare at all. I sent her in for training and she was a miserable c u next Tuesday. Trainer suggested we try this for her. We did, and my gosh what a change! If you have a ‘grumpy, miserable mare with a bad attitude, you need to give this a try! I’ve had neighbours comment how she’s a lot friendlier now; to people, and her herd mate. Game changer!

As a veterinarian who specializes in keeping animals healthy with nutrition, I want to feed my horse as naturally as possible. This supplement is a great balance for my horse's forage based diet. The customer service in this company is excellent, as are the quality of ingredients.

My vet recommended to feed an Omega 3 oil to one of our ponies with heaves and itchy skin. I'm feeding it to all 4 of our ponies now, and they all love it. I love the smell of it, too! I have a suggestion for the packaging issue: if you offered a hard container that the pouch fits into, similarly to the jugs for milk bags, the difficulty that some people experience with pouring may be remedied. I'm using a 5L feed bucket and it works okay, but a jug that is a bit taller and designed for the pouch would work even better!
