fennels-seeds

Fennel Seeds to help keep the digestive system comfortable, encourage milk production and support the upper respiratory tract.

 

Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) is a herb traditionally used to soothe the digestive tract. Feeding these seeds to your horse can help to keep the digestive system correctly functioning and may also reduce excessive flatulence, keeping you comfortable. The small greenish-yellow seeds have a warming aroma and aniseed like flavour that is generally very pleasant to horses, and feeding this herb can help to stimulate the appetite of picky eaters. Adding these to your horse’s diet also supports the health of the kidneys, liver and spleen, and can help to maintain clear upper airways. Fed to lactating mares Fennel Seeds may encourage milk production, and they are often consumed by women expressing milk to aid to keep their babies satisfied. It is not recommended to feed Fennel seeds to pregnant mares, but instead feed immediately following parturition to aid the stimulation of milk flow.
