My vet advised me to try Chasteberry on my 21-year-old pony with recently diagnosed Cushings (on top of existing EMS).  This has worked amazingly well and he has been free of symptoms since last Autumn, and she was very pleased with his condition when she saw him last week.  Last year he had repeated bouts of laminitis, this year he has been so much better.  I bought a different brand and he started getting footy, so I ordered a tub from Feedmark and he has recovered very quickly.

Horses seem to like it , too early to see a difference, will continue for at least 3 month to see if it makes a difference x

Have used this product before to help my 43 year old pony with his cushings. Along with the conventional veterinary treatment. I believe it helps keep it under control.. it comes in a fine palpable powder which he is happy to eat in his wet feed.

Not certain if this is helping but worth a try as she is very mareish at moments

I have a very hormonal mare, would this stop her coming into season?

Chastetree Berry won’t stop your mare coming into season, but it can help to maintain more stable hormone levels through oestrus, which will keep behaviour more settled. For the best support for hormonal mares we recommend that you look at Hormonease.

 

My gelding is riggy, and at times his behaviour is very stallion like, is this only used for mares, or can it help geldings too?

Chastetree Berry can help to maintain normal hormone responses, and can be fed to riggy geldings as well as hormonal mares. It is included as an ingredient in Feedmark Hormonease.

 

My pony struggles to shed his winter coat, I was told this supplement could help?

For older horses and ponies that may struggle with coat loss, this herb can help to maintain normal shedding patterns. If you have a horse or pony that has been diagnosed with Cushing's you may be interested in C-Plus™.
