Recent Research Showing the Effects of Garlic on Horses
A study published in the March 2005 issue of the American Journal of Veterinary Research, conducted by the Department of Animal and Poultry Science at the University of Guelph in Canada concluded:
Horses will voluntarily consume sufficient quantities of garlic to cause Heinz body anemia. The potential for garlic toxicosis exists when horses are chronically fed garlic.
In this study horses were fed freeze-dried garlic at a maximum amount of .25 grams per kilo of body weight for 71 days–less than three months. Researchers observed pathological changes in the blood when garlic was fed at an amount of .2 grams per kilo of body weight. For those of us who use pounds and ounces that’s about 3.2 ounces of freeze-dried garlic a day for a 1000 pound horse. They continued to take blood samples from the horses for five weeks after garlic supplementation was discontinued. Although the results of the blood tests improved at the end of 5 weeks, at which point the study was concluded, aberrations in the blood were still visible five weeks after garlic supplementation was stopped.
