Questions about apple cider vinegar for horses

Posted By Susieq8163 (Canterbury, Connecticut ) on 06/04/2015

My question is ACV for my horse who has heaves, he doesn't cough but his nasal noises are loud when he eats and he sounds like a pig. I used a natural product called Heave Ho but it didn't help. I prefer using natural products. He is 22 years old and little arthritic. He weighs about 800 lbs. I just would like more information on what is with the apple cider that's would clear his nasals that would help him.

I also have a mare who's is getting 5 days of worming meds because of tapeworms. Will apple cider help her bring her gut back to a good healthy level after all the worming? She was losing weight on me and her gut is so loud. She already had a gas colic 2 weeks ago, probably from the worms. Another vet bill.

I put a 1-2 cups of dried molasses and 1 1/2 of vegetable oil into my horses oats daily… will a 1/2 c of apple cider vinager addded to this be beneficial too or does the molasses counteract the good effects of the vinager… someone said it will counteract the effects of apple cider vineger for fly control???? And what about the arthritic and digestive benefits, will molasses cancel them out too?
