Ask Doctor Wendy Pearson

My name is Wendy Pearson, an equine researcher at the University of Guelph and a passionate horse lover! I’m happy to welcome you to this unique web-based resource for equine herbs information. Here we will post regular updates on results from Selected Bioproducts’ ongoing research program, as well as literature reviews on interesting medicinal herbs. Information is provided on this site in order to help you navigate the often treacherous waters of equine herbal medicine.  But remember, never attempt to diagnose or treat a sick or injured horse without consulting with your veterinarian first. Herbs can be a very beneficial addition to your horses’ regular diet, but should never replace regular veterinary care. I hope you find this new site informative and exciting!
