What is it: Horses are unable or have difficulty sweating
What are the symptoms: Non-sweating, thus difficulties with thermoregulation.
What traditional medicine says: No known cause, except “sweat glands on strike”
Dr. Tucker’s thoughts: The sweat glands are actually fine. It’s the brain that tells the sweat glands when to produce sweat. In the case of Anhidrosis, the brain and spinal cord have chemicals in them. These chemicals are preventing the transmission of the sweat messages.
The body generally cannot get rid of these brain chemicals. But sometimes, people have used beer or even vodka to get their horse to sweat. This makes sense because the alcohol goes to the brain. As the alcohol is cleared out, it takes some of the chemicals with it. However, this doesn’t work with all horses. And, it sometimes stops working if it worked at first.
Instead, I recommend using TBT Anhidrosis Resolve (https://shop.tuckerbiokinetic.com/anhidrosis-resolve/). This energy product will break the affinity bonds (connecting chemicals to brain), so the horse can remove them.
