Brewers Yeast is a supplement for horses, dogs and other animals. It can be mixed into the animal's food, and although it has a distinctive taste if introduced gradually over a period of a few days there should not be any problems with palatability.  Brewers Yeast contains a number of beneficial vitamins that are known to help maintain healthy skin, nervous and digestive systems.  It contains B vitamins including B6 known for its ability to support hair and skin regrowth, Vitamin B1 (Thiamin), Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) and Vitamin B3 (Niacin).  Brewers Yeast also contains inositol vital for hair growth and to support production of cell membranes. As well as selling Brewers yeast as a " straight" it is also used in our Bye Bye Itch supplement for seasonal itching in horses, ponies and donkeys, and in our Mud Defender supplement to help support a natural resistance to mud-dwelling bacteria. Brewers Yeast for animals is a good supplement for general animal health. Alternatively try our bye bye itch supplement.   Guidelines:

• Horses: 12 to 25 grams daily
• Dogs: quarter to one level teaspoon daily, slightly more for larger breeds or as suggested by your vet
• Add to feed on a daily basis, if possible splitting the required amount between two feeds
• Allow up to one month for benefits to be seen

*please note: we do not include feeding instructions on the packaging or include a scoop in the bag or tub.  This is due to the consistency of straight herbs eg roots are more dense than leaves or flowers, and they can be given to a variety of species.  For further research on using straight herbs for animals there are some good books available including Hilary Self's "A Modern Horse Herbal". If you have any concerns about your animal's health please contact your vet immediately.  If you have any queries about using this product, or if your animal is pregnant, please contact our Helpline 0800 052 3672 (Freephone) or email helpline@hiltonherbs.com
