"Yes/ no" Muscle Testing Your Horse's Supplements

Holistic Horseworks Talks with April Love

In this episode, April explains muscle testing, which is a technique used to determine the suitability and effectiveness of supplements and products for horses.

April explains that muscle testing involves "yes" or "no" answers. She teaches muscle testing in her applied kinesiology class. She emphasizes the importance of assessing the vitality and quality of products before feeding them to horses. By placing a hand on the product packaging, one can ask if its vitality is greater than 8 on a scale of 1 to 10.

April also suggests asking if the product is good for the horse and if the horse can assimilate it effectively. She shares her experience using NCD (Natural Cellular Defense) to passively clear the horse's liver and kidneys of toxins, which can affect their overall health.

She notes that being emotionally upset can affect the accuracy of muscle testing.

Overall, muscle testing can help horse owners save money by ensuring they provide the right products that their horses can effectively assimilate.

Moody Mares

In this episode, April discusses ways to handle moodiness in mares during the summer when they are cycling. The main concern is that the moody behavior may affect interactions with other horses, and impact performance at horse shows or events.
April suggests starting by addressing any physical discomfort the mare might be experiencing. Similar to humans, horses can become irritable when in pain. She recommends trying her horse yoga program, which consists of five basic stretches to make the mare more comfortable in her body.
By understanding the mare's specific needs, balancing her hormonal system, and addressing any physical discomfort, it becomes possible to improve her behavior and overall well-being. April advises doing horse yoga, trying supplements if necessary, and consulting with a veterinarian to determine the best course of action for the individual mare.
