They are fed hay, some concentrated feed and perhaps a supplement, but that natural abundance of herbs found in the wild is often lacking.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #e0e0e0\">As a result, many horses are missing out on the small amounts of plant compounds that help cleanse and repair their bodies and make them more resilient.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #e0e0e0\">Why herbs are important for horses\ud83d\udc34<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #e0e0e0\">Supporting the immune system: herbs such as nettle and dandelion help to keep the body clean and support the elimination of waste products.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #e0e0e0\">Healthy skin and coat: marigold and cleavers are known for their gentle effect on skin function.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #e0e0e0\">Calm and balance: some horses are sensitive to stimuli or changes; natural herbs can help to keep the body better balanced in such cases.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #e0e0e0\">Natural variation in the diet: by regularly offering a small amount of herbs, you mimic the horse\u2019s natural feeding behaviour.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #e0e0e0\">This way, your horse gets a taste of what it would naturally seek out in the wild. \ud83c\udf3f<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #e0e0e0\">\ud83d\udc9a <strong>A conscious choice for indoors and outdoors<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #e0e0e0\">At Paardenkriebels.nl, we believe that true self-care comes from within and from without.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #e0e0e0\">That\u2019s why we offer individual botanical herbs \u2014 pure, unprocessed and sold loose, so you can mix and match to find the right combination for your horse.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #e0e0e0\">No medical claims, but natural support for vitality, skin and immunity.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #e0e0e0\">I myself started using Paardenkriebels with my own horses.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #e0e0e0\">My Friesians and Tinkers taught me just how big a difference it can make when you let nature play a part in their daily care again.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #e0e0e0\">From a dull coat or sensitive skin to a calm and contented horse \u2014 all thanks to small, deliberate changes using natural products.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #e0e0e0\">I am now delighted to share that experience with other horse lovers.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #e0e0e0\">Through my online shop, I want to show that natural skincare doesn\u2019t have to be complicated, as long as you prioritise quality, care and balance.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #e0e0e0\">\u2618\ufe0fBecause if you listen carefully to what your horse needs, nature often shows you the way.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #e0e0e0\">I hope you find this useful.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #e0e0e0\">Love, Monique from www.paardenkriebels.nl<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #e0e0e0\">Would you like to support your horse with natural botanical herbs?<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #e0e0e0\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.paardenkriebels.nl\/en\/product-category\/spice-mix\/\"><span style=\"color: #d4af37\">View the herbs for horses<\/span><\/a> in the Paardenkriebels.nl online shop.<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ud83c\udf3f Als jouw paard in het wild zou leven\u2026 waarom hij dan kruiden nodig heeft In het wild kiest een paard zelf precies wat het lichaam nodig heeft.
