Meadowsweet (Filipendula ulmaria) is often used by equine owners to help combat inflammation and assist with natural pain relief for horses.

Benefits may include; 

• May help maintain healthy joints
• May help reduce inflammation
  
• May work as a natural pain reliever
• Often referred to as the ‘herbal aspirin’ 
  

Meadowsweet may return a positive swab due to the high content of salicylates.

Dosage: 30g per day/500kg horse.

How to Administer: Dried herbs may be added directly to your horse’s dampened feed in their dry state. Alternatively, (recommended) they may be made into an infusion (herbal tea) prior to use and the soaked herbs and liquid poured over their feed. By making an infusion prior to feeding, this is known to release more nutrients from the herbs and may increase the health benefits.
