When an animal suddenly refuses food, eats much less, or becomes picky, it may signal digestive imbalance, nausea, stress, pain, or underlying issues like poor liver function. In this video, we explore natural remedies, gentle herbal support, and holistic ways to improve appetite, digestion, and overall wellness in animals. ???\n\nThe liver plays a major role in detoxification, metabolism, and bile production\u2014so when the liver isn\u2019t functioning optimally, appetite often drops. Using a natural, case-by-case approach, we look at herbs that can help support healthy liver function, settle the stomach, increase nutrient absorption, and gently encourage appetite.\n\nCommon herbs used for appetite and digestion include:\n? Dandelion root\n? Milk thistle\n? Ginger\n? Peppermint\n? Slippery elm\n\nThis holistic approach can be used alongside veterinary treatment and conventional medicine. Many herbal formulas are:\n\u2705 Safe long-term\n\u2705 100% natural\n\u2705 Gentle on the stomach\n\u2705 Easy to add to food\n\u2705 Suitable for dogs, cats, and horses\n\nIf your animal is refusing food or just \u201cnot themselves,\u201d natural herbal support may help restore comfort, appetite, and vitality. Always monitor sudden changes in behaviour or eating habits, as they may indicate an underlying issue requiring veterinary care.\n\nWant personalised advice for your pet\u2019s appetite or digestion?

Natural bursitis treatment, healing herbs & pain relief tips#bursitis #pollevil","description":"Bursitis in horses, also known as Poll Evil, is a painful inflammation of the bursa at the top of the neck, often leading to swelling and even abscess formation. Many owners search for safe, natural ways to reduce pain, inflammation, and infection, especially when the condition becomes chronic or slow to heal. In this video, we explain what causes Poll Evil, how to recognise early symptoms, and how herbal medicine and natural treatments can support recovery. ??\n\nPoll Evil may occur from trauma, poor saddle fit, insect bites, infections, or repetitive pressure at the poll. When the bursa becomes inflamed, horses may show pain, stiffness, swelling, head-shyness, and reluctance to bridle. Early support is essential to avoid abscessing.\n\nHerbs and natural therapies can play a powerful role in supporting healing:\n\u2705 Anti-inflammatory herbs to calm swelling\n\u2705 Herbal antibacterials to reduce infection risk\n\u2705 Lymphatic herbs to drain fluid and speed recovery\n\u2705 Pain-relieving herbs to increase comfort\n\u2705 Topical poultices to draw out infection and support abscess healing\n\nThese remedies are gentle, 100% natural, and can be used alongside veterinary care. Many horses respond well when inflammation and pain are managed holistically\u2014supporting the immune system, improving circulation, and reducing pressure on the poll.\n\nIf your horse has persistent swelling, sensitivity around the bridle, or a developing poll lump, early action is key.
