Greska's Carbon-60
Hoof and Joint Health

Greska’s Equine Carbon-60 is extremely effective at relieving pain and inflammation when topically applied to the area of inflammation and pain at the sole, knee, hock, fetlocks, and pastern of a horse.

This product also promotes the proliferation of healthy cells when applied to the coronary band where the source of the hoof wall growth begins. This revolutionary product naturally increases the rate and quality of hoof growth.

Lily

Inflammation of the Lamina

My Paint mare Lily’s discomfort with her inflammation of the lamina was so bad she was on 2 grams of the Bute (Phenylbutazone) NSAID daily and had lost all joy and sparkle in life. She could barely even walk. Lily has a complete coffin bone rotation on both front hooves and is currently barefoot, wearing Soft Ride Boots with EasyCare Cloud inserts.

We started applying Greska’s Carbon-60 Lamina Spray on her front hoof soles on October 11, 2022. Within 2 weeks I began seeing improvement in her demeanor and ability to walk and lowered her Bute to 1 gram daily.

We started applying the Hoof & Joint on October 28, 2022. In only 2 weeks Lily started having bursts of energy; trotting and even bucking.

My new farrier started trimming her feet on November 17, 2022. Lily was taken completely off Bute on November 28, 2022. I continue to apply Greska’s Carbon-60 daily and her demeanor and soundness have continued to improve. She trots, lopes, and bucks. Her normal personality is back and once again she has joy and sparkle!

Joint Pain

Kelsa is my 23-year-old Mustang mare. She has always had a bad habit of kicking the fence at feeding time. Unfortunately, this trauma has caused her to have severe joint pain in her left hind pastern. Kelsa has noticeable thickness, inflammation, and soreness in that leg. She short strides when moving, and would hold her hoof tilted toe forward when standing.

I decided to try Greska’s Equine Carbon-60 oil product. I first started with clipping away hair from her pastern, then daubing the Carbon-60 oil to her daily. Within 2 weeks Kelsa was putting weight on her left hind hoof again. I can clearly see Kelsa’s inflammation has decreased in her left hind pastern. I am thrilled with her improvement in such a short time. I am grateful for finding out about Greska’s Carbon-60. I am excited for Kelsa’s future again!

Thank you Greska’s Carbon-60.

Nola

Inflamed Joints

My school horse Nola had poor shoeing and was lame when I first acquired her. Our first goal in rehabbing her was transitioning her from wearing shoes to barefoot. We eventually started using her for lessons, She was inconsistent, she had an uneven gait and shortened stride. Nola’s swelling and stiffness within her knee joints were inflamed from her sore feet.

We started applying Greska’s Carbon-60 to her front hoof soles, and coronary band. We clipped the hair around her knees and started to apply the Carbon-60 to her knees. After two weeks we noticed big changes in Nola’s movement. Currently, Nola is back to being used regularly for riding lessons, her movement is more fluid and free. Her knee inflammation has noticeably decreased, and her rides are consistent.

Thank you Greska’s Carbon-60.

Carbon 60 Coronary Band & Lamina Application

Equine Hoof and Founder

Tests were conducted over an eight-month period using horses that were significantly and chronically lame or foundered. Greska’s Equine Carbon-60 has been effective in relieving pain and inflammation associated with these symptoms as evidenced by increased mobility and significant changes in disposition.

Greska’s carbon-60 is able to arrest pain and inflammation when topically applied at the sole of the hoof, coronary band, hock, knee, or fetlock. This product promotes the proliferation of healthy cells when applied to the coronary band; the source of hoof growth. This revolutionary product naturally increases the rate and quality of hoof growth.

To understand how this product works for common founder and lameness issues, you first need to understand the underlying cause of many inflammatory disease processes at the molecular level. We have all heard of “free radicals and oxidative stress” but most of us do not understand these terms. Since inflammation plays such a key role in horse founder and lameness, it is important to understand that the underlying cause of many types of inflammation is “oxidative stress”.

How it Works

Free radicals are molecules that lack one or more electrons. Free radicals steal electrons from healthy molecules & cells, damaging the healthy molecules and cells in the process. This domino effect is a cumulative process that multiplies and is defined as oxidative stress.

Carbon-60 molecules have the ability to share their electrons by bonding to free radical molecules that are missing electrons stabilizing them and preventing them from damaging other healthy cells.

Greska’s Carbon-60 is truly a “super antioxidant” because it is more than 200,000 times smaller than antioxidant molecules found in foods making them immensely more bioavailable. Greska’s Carbon-60 works because it operates at the molecular level at the root of the disorder where it all begins.

Greska’s carbon 60 molecules are nano-sized making them highly bioavailable to absorption through the tissues at the site of an affected area. As described in the horse owner’s testimonies of Lilly, Nola, and Kelsa, Greska’s Equine Carbon-60 has been effective at relieving inflammation causing pain for these horses as demonstrated by improved mobility. This product promotes the proliferation of healthy cells when applied to the coronary band; the source of hoof growth.

Inflammation and Hoof Health

Inflammation is a complex biological response that occurs in response to injury, infection, or abnormal conditions within the body. In horses, inflammation in the area of the hoof can lead to a condition known as founder. Founder is a painful and potentially debilitating condition causing significant pain and distress that affects the sensitive structures within the hoof, ultimately impacting the horse’s ability to move and causing significant pain and distress. The connection between internal hoof inflammation and horses' developing founder is indisputable. The following provides a comprehensive understanding of the topic in both medical and layman's terms.

Hoof Anatomy: To comprehend how internal inflammation affects the hoof, it’s essential to understand the basic anatomy of the horse’s hoof. The hoof consists of several structures, including the coffin bone, the sensitive laminae, and the insensitive hoof wall. The sensitive laminae act as a suspension system, connecting the coffin bone to the hoof wall, providing stability and shock absorption.

Internal Inflammation: When a horse experiences internal inflammation, it means that there is an abnormal immune response occurring within the body. A heightened immune response can cause internal inflammation. Many conditions can cause this response such as diet imbalances (excessive carbohydrate intake), infection, overexertion, prolonged stagnant weight bearing, and many more.

Impact on the Hoof: Inflammation can have severe consequences for the horse’s hoof. Inflammation disrupts the balance within the hoof, causing damage to the sensitive laminae that connects the coffin bone to the hoof wall, which is commonly known as founder. The inflammation compromises blood flow to the hoof, resulting in poor oxygen and nutrient supply to the sensitive structures. This lack of blood flow can lead to pain, tissue damage, and ultimately rotation of sinking of the coffin bone.

Signs and symptoms: Recognizing the signs and symptoms of founder is crucial for early detection and intervention. Signs of founder may include increased pulse or throbbing in the hoof, heat in the hoof area, reluctance to weight bear, and a specific stance known as “Founder Stance” with the horse trying to relieve pain by shifting its weight backward.

Prevention and Solutions: Apply Greska’s Carbon-60 to help alleviate inflammation, pain and promote recovery.
