    Wild Yam POWDER-WILD CRAFTED   (Dioscorea villosa)

    HORMONES/PAIN/DIGESTION

    Relieves lower back pain, numbness or stiffness in the legs and feet, and muscle aches.
    Wild yam is used to treat stomach upset accompanied by fatigue, heavy sweating, and loss of appetite. It also relieves chronic cough and wheezing and "binds" the kidneys to stop frequent urination, or vaginal discharge. Wild yam is also used to stop severe thirst accompanying diabetes. As an estrogen rich root, it is used to help balance hormone levels, especially in older females.

    Wild Yam is used in our TOO MANLY (available in POWDERED and EASY FEED) and

    TOO MUCH MARE (available in POWDERD and EASY FEED) recipes.

    DOSING SINGLE HERBS-the "Four Herb" rule.

    We apologize for the inconvenience, but we do not give dosages for using one herb alone. The reason behind this is it is far easier to overdose using a single herb, than a combination of herbs. We would need a complete health history, complete feed breakdown and even with all the information, it can still be a risk to suggest dosage on single herbs. Therefore, our solution is to recommend the dosage for a minimum "four herb" combination. As herbs work synergistically (supporting each other) it is best to use herbs in combination, rather than alone. If you are wanting to target an herb (say Milk Thistle for the liver) it is very easy to do a simple online search, like “herbs for liver” and come up with several suggestions…milk thistle, marshmallow, ginger, and burdock are a few that pop up that would combine well to enhance liver function. Once you combine these minimum four types of herbs, feed in the following manner…

    900-1400lb horse 1-2 tablespoons mixed POWDERED herbs AND/OR ¼ cup mixed chopped herbs

    Over 1400lbs 2-3 tablespoons mixed powdered herbs AND/OR 1/3 cup mixed chopped herbs

    400-900lbs ½ to 1 tablespoon mixed powdered herbs AND/OR ¼ cup mixed chopped herbs

    Under 400lbs 1-2 teaspoons mixed powdered herbs AND/OR 1 tablespoon mixed chopped herbs

     Start with minimal dosage. If no changes seen within 2-4 weeks, increase by half dose.

    We continuously update information on our herbs for relevant information but as information on herbs is rather endless, please conduct your own searches as new information is constantly being uploaded on the internet.

     As with all herbs, please confirm if it is safe for pregnant or lactating mares before use.
