Peak Performance Nutrients
I was
initially attracted to Peak Performance because it is additive-free.
My event horse, Top Spinner, has extensive food allergies, and I had been
struggling to find the supplements he needed without the fillers he was
allergic to.
When Top Spinner came to live with me, he had been totally disabled by his
allergies - he could not maintain his weight, and he suffered from heaves
and anhidrosis, the inability to sweat. Not good symptoms for an upper level
event horse! My first priority was to learn how to feed him according to his
allergy profile - filler-free Peak Performance has been a major part
of our success.
To help the horse with his heaves, I moved him out of the barn and into a
dust-free field, did my best not to feed him anything he is allergic to, and
supplemented him with Vitamin C and MSM. I was reluctant to try any of the
herbal cough mixtures for fear that he would also be allergic to the exotic
ingredients in the supplements. Top Spinner was able to return to work, but
I did not feel confident that he breathed freely enough to gallop for the
speeds and distances that eventing requires. I decided to "risk" a trial of
Peak Performance's Hemo Cease. Wow, what a difference! Within a week
his breathing rate slowed and deepened to what I consider normal. No more
short puffy breaths, no fluttering flaring nostrils, and quicker recovery
rates.
Top Spinner's first event was up in Vermont over a long course with many
steep hill climbs. He had the fastest time of the division and won the
event! He recovered easily - I am very grateful to Peak Performance and
wholeheartedly recommend their supplements!
