Hemp Oil vs. Previcox© for Our Animals’ Pain

Bella, my 18-year-old Mustang mare, is uncharacteristically large because the Wyoming herd she came from had Percheron bloodlines introduced generations ago. One thing her queen-sized stature has contributed to has been a lack of agility, hence a repeated, sprain-type injury in her right rear pastern and fetlock joint area.

Long story short, Bella underwent what is a fairly simple and not uncommon surgery a few years ago to sever the annular ligament in that area, which was impeding and putting pressure on other damaged tendons and causing a great deal of pain. While this surgery is often very successful, that was not the case for Bella, and she has continued to have pain and swelling, though milder, ever since.

If you have a horse or dog in pain, you are probably familiar with Previcox©, a prescription NSAID painkiller. It does provide relief, though not necessarily complete relief, but it also can be hard on the gut, the liver and the kidneys. So, at least according to my vet, it should be given in a 3-weeks-on/1-week-off schedule.

Bella has been on Previcox© for years, and I always worry about its impact on her overall health.

So I am going to do an experiment. I’m going to give Bella daily hemp oil instead of Previcox© for at least two months and see what happens.

Why? Because, after taking daily hemp oil drops myself for the last year and a half, the pain from back injuries I’ve struggled with for the last 11 years is 95% gone 95% of the time. Not being fond of or able to tolerate THC, I’ve used oils high in CBD, which are the most common non-THC products found on the open market. I’ve tried more than one brand and taken a dropper-full two to four times a day.

But recently I’ve graduated! To a totally new form of hemp oil that has a much broader spectrum of cannabinoids and terpenes and is processed through a proprietary nano-technology method to produce a liposomal product that is highly bio-available and assimilable. Per milligram, this new oil is about eight times as effective as any parallel product on the market. And the price is very reasonable. I won’t need to take nearly as much each day, either, to get the same results I’ve gotten with other brands.

Bella’s new pain “medication”
produced by Prime My Body

This is what Bella and I will both be taking — me, forever; her, for as long as it takes to get a read on what hemp oil can do for animals in pain. This new Prime My Body product, Recept, is backed by science and is leaps and bounds ahead of any other oil you can buy on the open market. And every batch is analyzed by a third party to make sure of its consistent high quality and purity of ingredients.

I will report back after I’ve had time to see how this might help my Bella. It will be an answer to my prayers if it’s effective for her pain and will make a huge difference in her quality of life… and in her mom’s state of mind!

If you’re curious about this new broad-spectrum oil, you can go HERE and read about it or order it. If you have pain, depression, sleep problems, or inflammation (to name just a few things hemp can help), you may want to dive into the world of Recept. Let me know if you’re interested!
