Fine Fettle Feed (June 16, 2010)
Fine Fettle Feed is a company dedicated to improving horses' health and wellbeing by natural means. They specialize in the research and development of methods of equine care which work with the immune system to support and maintain natural good health.
They have always kept horses and dogs and have, over the decades, developed a sound knowledge of how to look after them with little veterinary intervention. Fine Fettle Feed have an excellent track record developing and marketing a range of natural products for use in animal care, a wealth of experience in their application.
Happy Tummy
Happy Tummy™ - sizes 3L @ £35.00; 12.5L @ 75.00 (+bulk packs)
Realizing that horses today are far more susceptible to a range of illnesses that hardly existed fifty years ago; and that many of these problems are the result of fairly recent changes in diet, Fine Fettle Feed developed Happy Tummy™.
Happy Tummy™ is a specially treated charcoal feed supplement which oxygenates and removes toxins from the horses’ system. The result is a healthier, happier horse with a stronger immune system which suffers far less from all the ‘modern’ ailments.
Happy Tummy™ for horses (and all companion animals e.g. dogs, cats etc.) helps maintain good digestive health and avoid a wide range of infections.
In the same way that spectacles help focus poor eyesight but have no medicinal properties themselves; or walking sticks help people walk but have no medicinal properties themselves so Happy Tummy™ helps your horse (or pet) avoid illness but has no medicinal properties itself.
Happy Tummy™ is made up of specially treated hardwood charcoal sourced from sustainable British woodlands.
Charcoal has been used for thousands of years as an aid to good digestion, and a healthy digestive system is the foundation of a strong immune system.
Happy Tummy™ adsorbs toxins and intestinal gases and carries them away thus preventing them from hurting your horse or pet!
Happy Tummy™ Charcoal is riddled with a network of crevasses, cracks, tunnels and pores, so much so that the combined surface area of a 1cm cube would unfold to an area of 1000 square metres! This tremendous surface area adsorbs a huge range of bad bacteria and toxins, making charcoal the undisputed champion of detoxifiers.
Adsorption acts by physically binding toxin molecules to the charcoal by a mechanism known as Van der Waals forces, and in this way charcoal grabs and holds on to a vast range of nasties. This detoxification is an ongoing biological process that can help maintain good health. Chronic exposure to toxins can produce cellular damage, diverse diseases, allergy-like reactions, compromised immunity and premature ageing. By adsorbing these toxins Happy Tummy™ charcoal works to maintain health.
Happy Tummy™ has a singular affinity for poisons and can remove them from the system. Happy Tummy™ charcoal has, of itself, no medicinal properties since it is completely inert and indigestible; it simply acts to bind toxins to itself and pass them out of the system.
Happy Tummy™:
§ Adsorbs toxins
§ Helps reduce muscle fatigue & “tie-up”
§ Reduces intestinal gas
§ Adsorbs harmful bacteria
§ Aids the digestive system
FlyGon - sizes 250ml spray @ £13.48; 1L spray @ £34.00
Next they tackled the problem of fly strike by developing FlyGon, a powerful natural antifeedant. This very effectively stops midges and other insects from biting, forming a bitter healthy barrier which protects and soothes the skin. FlyGon combines with the natural oils on a horse’s skin to form a mildly alkaline compound which helps any bites or stings to heal more rapidly.
Black Tac – 250ml tub @ £30.50
Because of our wet climate muddy condition can cause cracks and weeping sores to break out on horses’ heels and fetlock. To combat this Fine Fettle Feed developed Black Tac a very sticky ointment which forms a protective barrier over the affected area helping it to dry out and heal. A compound of high quality natural ingredients, Black Tac is water soluble and safe to use on all skin lesions.
D-Bug – 250 ml @ £17.98
Insect bites and stings are usually acidic and simulate the nerves on the skin causing pain or irritation. Fine Fettle Feeds alkaline skin ointment D-Bug helps neutralize the acid when applied in a thin layer over the troubled area, giving relief from irritation. Further yet, D-Bug deters mite infestation and helps to keep the horse’s skin healthy and itch free!
Skin Deep – sizes 150ml @ £14.98 & 250ml @ £19.98
Out in the open air riders’ skin has a tendency to become “windswept and interesting”, so Fine Fettle Feed developed Skin Deep balm which, when worked into the skin, provides a wonderful barrier against too much sun, rain and wind. It’s also great for rubbing into scuffs and abrasions on horses or dogs where it helps to guard against Muddy and Itchy conditions. Skin Deep contains only the finest, natural ingredients.
CRAMPKEY – SIZE 12.5L TUB @ £95 (INC P&P)
Horses are a prey species and if a horse cramps up in the wild it’s likely to get very quickly dead as the predators can catch it. To avoid this horses eat certain herbs which help keep their muscles soft and pliable. We have studied, collected and analysed these herbs, then taken the best of them, dried and mixed them to produce CRAMPKEY a naturally occurring muscle relaxant. CRAMPKEY has no medicinal properties and is part of the spectrum of herbs that horses used to eat in their wild state. It’s completely safe to use and simply helps overstretched muscles to relax.
All of Fine Fettle Feed products are free from additives and preservatives. Prices are inclusive of post and packing.
