Confounded but amazed
I have 2 horses on this. One had less than beautiful hay and he has been blossoming on it .
The 2nd horse HAD been diagnosed with Equine Asthma. We decided to give him Camelina oil as he needed a bit more weight and for it's anti-inflammatory properties. Since putting him on the Camelina oil his breathing has been MUCH better! He was re-tested and was no longer considered Asthmatic!! Scientifically I can't explain this but the timing correlates.. i'll be keeping him on it!!

Really helped their hooves and overall health.
The horses love the taste. Even the farrier commented that their hooves have never looked better.

Loving it so far!
My mare has been on this for over 6 months now and I’ve been really impressed with the results! She’s had no inflammatory response to this oil and has really been thriving on it.

Didn't help my horses
I bought this hoping it would help my two older horses - one with respiratory issues and the other with minor joint stiffness. All it did was make them fatter!

Waste
I bought this for my horse recovering from EPM and put it on autoship. Immediately disappointed when it did not come with a pump so it is messy and annoying to try to use. Then my horse only ate it for a few days and then refused to touch his feed if a drop of this was on it. Of course I forgot to cancel the autoship and now I have another jug of this junk headed my way to take up space in my feed room

Really Does what they Say!
I had been seeing lots of ads for Camelina oil -a "miracle" oil (?) and wondered. My 24 yr old mare had been on bute 2x a day for comfort / inflamtion issues for about 8 weeks and was starting to show stomach issues. After some research and talking to someone else who had been using it with good results and figured - Why Not? Well, the stomach relief was almost immediate -no more "mare grumpy-ness". With winter upon us -riding was limited but I was hand walking her almost daily and she was moving as well as she was with the bute -seemed very loose anxious to move out. Gone was the uncomfortable stance she sometimes would have before the bute, she was rounder and just overall happier horse! I can't wait for the snow/winter to be gone so we can get some good rides in.

Product seems to living up to its hype!
I have a draft horse with shivers (neuromuscular issue similar to stringhalt) and the vet suggested that we give him a massive daily dose of Vitamin E. Problem is, there is only so much powder you can put on the feed before it's just unpalatable. I also worry about inhalation of the powdered forms. I started using another oil with high doses of E but it was more than 100 a bottle so I looked around and found this, still a bit spendy but much less than 100 a bottle! I put two ounces of this and 2 scoops of elevate onto his 2 cups of Senior Sentinel and his other SmartPaks and he scarfed it down! It has the added benefit of getting the powdered E to stick to his grain! We know we can't reverse the neuromuscular issues our boy has but we are hoping to at least slow its progression! BTW, if you are in northern climes, this also has a much lower freezing point than many other oil-based products so it doesn't freeze up as fast!

Horses love it!!
Put two horses on it 4 months ago and they are thriving! Coats are shiny and the older horse all together stopped having issues with stocking up. Nothing else changed about his daily routine except for adding the oil.

Horses won't eat it
I was really hoping they would eat this as I have been looking for a good easy source of omega 3s. I only have one picky mare but all four horses threw the food out of the feed pan and snorted a lot to let me know that they were not happy!

Beyond Amazing results
This product is amazing! There is a lot of oil for horses, but this one is the best! Overall horse health will do a 360 on this. Nothing compares. Horses love it! They go bonkers when they smell it and start drooling.
