SUCCEED Digestive Conditioning Program Launches Crusade Against Equine Colic
AURORA, OHIO, Monday, March 21, 2011 -- Freedom Health, LLC, makers of SUCCEED® Digestive Conditioning Program®, has announced the introduction of a new awareness campaign: the Crusade Against Equine Colic™.
As a leading equine health product, SUCCEED supports greater education and awareness of important digestive health concerns like colic. Knowledge is power. This is particularly important with colic, as it is the number one medical killer of adult domestic horses. That fact has been well-established by veterinary science, but the root causes of colic are less well understood.
Our goal is to save as many horses as possible from deadly and debilitating bouts of colic, though educating trainers, riders, farm managers … the people who care for horses every day.
“We are proud to bring you the Colic Crusade, a movement to empower you with information to help you take charge and avoid colic,” says John Hall, president and CEO of Freedom Health. “Please share this with others, invite them to visit our new website, and share your experiences so that, together, we can vastly reduce the incidence of colic.”
Here’s how you can become a Crusader in the fight against equine colic:
- Visit www.coliccrusade.com to learn how colic is induced, get tips on colic prevention, and understand the signs that your horse may be at risk
- Share your stories of colic battles lost and won
- Sign up to receive articles and colic stories from the Crusade by e-mail
- Get involved in the community at the Colic Crusade Facebook page, http://www.facebook.com/ColicCrusade, follow us on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/ColicCrusade, and spread the word.
The Crusade Against Equine Colic, presented by SUCCEED, is now live. Please join us as we campaign for better equine digestive health.
SUCCEED Digestive Conditioning Program is an official product sponsor of USEF, USDF and USEA. It is produced and distributed exclusively by Freedom Health, LLC, of Aurora, Ohio. The company is focused on finding, perfecting and delivering superior, innovative products that address real and significant health-related issues for animals and the people who care for them.

Rules
Rule Refresher: Not a Non-Compete? Not Allowed on Grounds
Bringing your future eventing prospect with you to a horse trial as a non-compete can be a wonderful educational opportunity for horses not used to the hustle and bustle of the show grounds. However, horses must be registered with the show office as a "non-compete" horse in order to be allowed on grounds. Bringing horses to an event to school, to provide lessons, or to campaign for sale is strictly prohibited.
