Echinacea warning!

[Weezy]

Following my post the other day: My horse was suddenly going wild in his box, so I asked on here if anyone had had adverse behavioural reaction and a few people commented that they had had.

Well, 2 days off the echinacea and I am pleased to report that Ted is 100% back to normal and not trying to commit suicide in his box anymore! Lesson learnt, some things from nature, although well intended, do not suit every horse!

Good to hear is back to normal, posts like these kinda reminds everyone that this forum can be a very good source of info where people can exchange experiances but getting feeding back afterwards (like you have done) is a good closure on a subject etc...is you see what I'm waffeling on about.

Glad all is back to normal

...I've just started taking echinacea, but have to admit to no desire to run round in a loony state (more like a strong desire to sit on the sofa and do bob-all)
