has anybody used Milk Thistle to promote Liver function in their horse?
I have a 23 year old thoroughbred mare who has liver damage and finds it extremely hard to keep her weight in the winter, she is otherwise very well and active.
Somebody told me to try milk thistle today, but I just wanted to see if anybody else had used this for their horse for this condition and if so, does it work???
Thank you
Michelle
the cause for the liver problem isn't 100% known but as we rescued her in really poor form we can only imagne prevoius malnurishment and ragwort...
It is claimed to protect the liver tissue from toxins since it has antioxidant properties. It is also claimed, although unsubstantiated in any valid medical research I could find, to promote protein synthesis in the liver. It has been around since the ancient Greeks used it, and still hasn't made it into the realms of legitimate pharmacology, but it doesn't appear to be harmful. What does your vet have to say on it? I would not give anything to my horses that was not advised by a qualified vet. If the vet thinks it may help, and won't do harm, then I'd go with that.
