It is important for all horse owners to know that Purina has issued two massive recalls this month affecting almost their entire horse feed product line. This recall was not made available to the general public. Notices went to the dealers directly. On 4/9 they recalled 27 equine products, including senior and the Platform line. On 4/21 they recalled another 18 products. The problem is Aflatoxins. Aflatoxins are toxic and one of the most carcinogenic substances known. They can cause liver dysfunction, immune suppression, and neurological difficulties. Please share this information with your horse keeping friends.
I called my feed store, and they confirmed that this was true; Purina has recalled many of their feeds due to the potential aflatoxins as a "precautionary measure".
