Life Data Hoof Disinfectant

Every day, millions of bacteria and fungi assault the horse's hoof, looking for an opportunity to gain entrance through a nail hole or a crack. In other cases, it is simply a war of attrition, when over time these hoof-eating microbes erode the integrity of the hoof wall and the end result could be any one of a hundred different hoof capsule infections. Bacteria and fungi that are associated with thrush, white line disease and other hoof capsule infections actually digest your horse's hoof.

Now you can fight back with Life Data Hoof Disinfectant™ Life Data Labs, makers of Farrier's Formula®, introduces an innovative and effective way to fight back - this time with the combination of proper nutrition and external preparations working from the outside in.

In twenty-five years of treatment and follow-up with several thousand horses, Dr. Gravlee has identified only a few horses with hoof problems that did not improve after feeding Farrier's Formula® once other health or environmental problems were identified and corrected. These horses all had healthy coat and hair quality, appeared to have good nutritional status and were otherwise in good health. Dr. Gravlee collected hoof trimmings from these horses and sent them for microscopic analysis. The reports he received were almost identical on each of the horses. They all had healthy hoof tissue except for the presence of extensive fungal or bacterial infections in the hoof capsule. These microorganisms were destroying the hoof.

Life Data Hoof Disinfectant™ not only kills these hoof-eating microbes on the surface of the hoof, but penetrates deep within the hoof wall to kill these microbes at the very foundation of the infection. The active ingredient in
Life Data Hoof Disinfectant™ is a tamed iodine solution that is delivered into the hoof capsule by a highly penetrating base of tea tree oil.

Life Data Hoof Disinfectant™ is a safe and effective topical disinfectant clinically proven to kill the bacteria and fungi that cause hoof capsule infections.

Product Improvement:

Life Data Hoof Disinfectant™ now contains tea tree oil instead of emu oil.
Independent university research has demonstrated tea tree oil penetrates the hoof capsule as effectively as does emu oil. It also has a longer shelf life and a more pleasing aroma.

Directions

Shake well before use.
Hoof should be clean and dry before application (if necessary, clean hooves thoroughly and leave horse in a clean stable overnight to allow hooves to dry).
Apply Life Data Hoof Disinfectant™ to a clean, dry hoof using a hoof brush to reach cracks and crevices.
Allow to penetrate for 20 to 30 minutes.
Repeat application daily while the hoof condition (thrush, brittle walls, white line disease, seedy toe, cracks, chips, old nail holes, etc.) is present.
For ongoing maintenance, use each time the hoof is dressed, rasped, or trimmed.
