Hey guys, A while back I saw a post on MSM for allergies, and I'd
like to know if you think it might be helpful to a pony with
allergies, and if so how much of it can I safely give a 600lb pony?
I'm giving her CS too, and at one point was going to try to nebulize
the CS but never got a chance to build some sort of "bag" to neb her
with.
TIA for any ideas.
PS she's already somewhat grey so I doubt I would notice any changes
due to CS if there were any.

Hi,
We've been giving our senior horse a quart a day for a couple of years as a
preventive measure. He's still the original color.

First of all, if they are talking about true CS, then argyria has never
been
known to cause it in anyone or anything. In fact theory predicts that
true
CS will help prevent argyria if taken with silver compounds that would
have
caused it otherwise.
But even if it did, it seems to me the choice between a gray horse and a
dead horse should be easy to make.
I would think that dressing the wound with cloth saturated with CS and
changed fairly often would be a good start. Also the addition of some
DMSO
to the mix would also likely assist.
Remember that preventing an infection by putting CS on a wound is only
part
of the story. The other part is that the ionic portion promotes healing
without scaring by triggering injured cells, and cells in a blood clot to
revert back to stem cells.
