Our thoroughbred, Chaz, turned 31 this April 2018.
In April 2017, Chaz was not shedding well and appeared listless. Our vet had tested him for Cushings (ACTH 62) and suggested Pergolide. Due to his age, we decided to try an natural supplement, as an alternative. A friend and our vet suggested chasteberry and our vet referred us to Emerald Valley. The Emerald Valley folks were accessible and informative and we decided to give Evitex a try. Within 3 weeks, Chaz was noticeably feeling and looking better. He was tested in April of this year and his ACTH is stable.
Best of all, he has lots of energy to run and play with paddock mate Liam, at our friend’s farm!
Thank you!

Would it be a good idea to use this supplement on a horse if they haven’t been tested for cushings, would it be good for their general health?

Hi! Thank you for your question. Evitex is a chasteberry herbal supplement that is used for helping the symptoms of cushings such as promoting normal shedding, drinking, muscle tone. If your horse is exhibiting these symptoms, Evitex may help. However, it is not for general health. We always recommend that you work with your veterinarian. Let us know if you have any questions or if you would like a packet of information!
