• You should feed your horse Dandelion, Chamomile, Fenugreek, Fennell, Garlic and Rosehips occasionally.
• You should allow it access to free choice Kelp, Sea Salt and Dolomite to provide any minerals or trace elements missing from the feed and pasture.
• Provide regular opportunities for your horse to graze in laneways or other areas of unimproved pastures and weeds.
• Feed meadow hay in preference to cultivated and irrigated Lucerne or other commercial hay.
• Reduce your horse's exposure to all commercial processed horse feed products.
• Resist the temptation to use poisons either on the ground or in your horse's gut.
• Rotate and spell your paddocks regularly.
• Protect your ground cover and the colonies of bacteria and fungi, which are the lifeblood of your humus .
• Learn to love your weeds. All you need to do to protect your horse from Patterson's Curse poisoning is to change it from a susceptible horse to one which is not susceptible.

If your horse is not nutritionally or environmentally stressed and is free to graze on healthy pasture at times and to choose what it eats, it will not go out looking to poisonous plants for missing minerals or to satisfy its subverted grazing instincts.
