So far so good

I'm so happy I found this product. It's been one of those years where somehow every few days there's something new that's gone wrong with one of our horses. Right now I have three of my mares on Optimum Defense. The first one came home from training with high anxiety and began breaking out in hives non stop for months. We figured her immune system had crashed from all of the stress. I'm happy to say after being on this for a couple months she was completely hive free and acting like her old self. The second horse came down with the flu after being sent out for breeding. She also started having hive issues, probably again because of the stress on her immune system, so we figured we might as well try Defense with her. Two weeks later and she's hive free and looks healthier than she has since she'd gotten sick. The last mare was just put on it three weeks ago after having a breakout from sweet itch that caused her to itch so much that she ended up ripping her eyelid halfway off. As soon as she got home from the vet we put her on Optimum Defense along with some extra colostrum and it's definitely helped her in the healing process and the itching. I don't know where we would be without Biostar. Thank you!
