Epsom Salt

Principally used in poultices and hoof packings, Epsom Salt draws water out of the body, making it excellent for reducing swelling and removing toxins. If applied as a paste, it generates soothing heat. Because of its ability to pool water, Epsom salt is sometimes used as a laxative to draw water to the intestines to soften stool.  Epsom salt’s technical name is magnesium sulfate.  Magnesium is important for muscle function, a healthy nervous system, sound bones, and healthy kidneys. It is important in the formation of strong bones, with 50% of the body’s magnesium found in the horse’s skeleton.  available in 5 LB bag only.  Please note that manufacturers vary and the image does not necessarily depict product shipped.
