White Willow
The anti-inflammatory properties of the bark of the White Willow have been fully understood for all of mankind’s recorded history. White Willow Bark contains Salicylic Acid, the component of Aspirin®. The modern Aspirin was “discovered” simply by analyzing the white willow bark and separating out one of the many medicinal ingredients. This ingredient was then synthesized, patented, and became aspirin.
Equine joints take a lot of wear, tear and stress and sometimes need extra help. Horse owners who have used Herbal Bute have reported measurable improvement in their horse’s joint and muscle movement.

Our senior horses seem to having less pain
I waited a little while before submitting my review so I can leave better information. I started my senior donkey on Herbal Bute Naturally about 6 weeks ago for an unknown pain source, probably arthritis somewhere.
It took about a week to really notice a difference. She is taking 1/2 a scoop a day. She is feeling so good. I haven’t seen her run in quite a while. She’s engaging with her friends and running again!!
Works great when you need to keep the pain & inflammation down with no stomach upset!
We just started using Herbal Bute. They take it without any fuss. No fighting to get it down and it works. I forgot once to mix it with the feed and gave it by hand like a treat. Jed knew it wasn’t a treat but ate it anyway. Thank you Alternative Animal.
I have my donkey on the herbal bute daily to keep her comfortable while dealing with laminitis. She was able to stop using her hoof boots.
