Testimonials: #27 Liver Support

Surprise, surprise

Rarely has a horse been better named than Surprise, purchased for Lyn Summers to school on in dressage and show jumping

Bought out of a field, the big upstanding chestnut certainly looked the part, but the Dutch 5 year old proved a real box of tricks.

“We couldn’t get him out of the yard,” said Lyn. “He seemed incapable of going forward. Most people thought he wanted a good thrashing, but we didn’t feel that was the answer and got an iridologist to look in his eyes—or try to. He kept closing his eyes. The iridologist diagnosed a serious calcium and magnesium deficiency, possibly because he was hand reared as we later found, and he hated the light shining into his eyes. Basically he could hardly see.”

“We cleaned his system with liver herbs, and started special treatments to correct the mineral deficiencies.”

“Gradually he started going forward. For a long time he still had a haze in his eyes, but that’s 99% gone now and he is a different horse, although still on a cocktail of liver herbs and tie-up tamer as he produces a lot of lactic acid.”

Eighteen months on the difference is amazing. Surprise is show jumping, and his dressage is so promising that he qualified for the regional finals on his first outing.
