Due to the economy since 2008 the below products are no longer being mixed.
But you can look into the herbs yourself.

History of using Ayurveda on Race Horses

Ayurveda has been practiced in India for more than 5,000 years. "Ayus" means age or life-span and "Veda" is wisdom or true knowledge. Ayurveda is the science and wisdom of life and self-healing. This includes not only diet, exercise, and yoga but also herbs. After his many visits to India and countless hours of study, Ray Rosenthal (our formulator) became an international expert in Ayurveda and the Indian herbs. Dr. R.P. Trivedi, Ray's mentor was considered to be nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize in Botany and was a world-renowned expert in Ayurveda. In 1994, Dave asked Ray if there were any Ayurvedic herbs that could help his and Rich's racehorses' well being. They help people, so why not horses?

Of course there were, but research was necessary to find the best possible combinations of herbs for horses. Dr. Triveda actually researched the ancient Sanskrit literature to help Ray. He spoke to many other experts from India, too. Ray also contacted Dr. R.H. Singh who he (like numerous others) considered to be "the #1 Ayurvedist in India." In a letter to Ray, Dr. Singh wrote, "I always believe that it is in the interest of Ayurveda as well as in our national interest and in the interest of humanity at large that Ayurveda come on the world map...In this reference your efforts to promote Ayurveda in the USA is laudable. I shall be happy to collaborate." Dr. Singh is a Professor and Chief Consultant Physician in the Dept. of Internal Medicine and is the Dean of Ayurveda Faculty at Banaras Hindu University (perhaps the leading University in India). In his 30-year academic career, Prof. Singh has authored 12 books and over 100 research papers in international journals.

The original mix of herbs that Ray and Dr. Trivedi recommended were based on combinations of herbs that have existed in India before mankind and have been used for thousands of years by its people. It is not just the ingredients that are important -- the proportions of the herbs are vitally important, too . When it comes to herbs, more does not equate to better. The same herb combined with different herbs will also change the benefits provided by that herb. Equally critical is the way the herbs are processed. For example, extracting active ingredients with alcohol vs. water will provide different benefits from the same herb. In short, the key is which herbs to use, their proportions, quality, potency, and the manner in which they are extracted.

When we tested Ray's recommendations of herbs on our racehorses, the results far exceeded our expectations.

Power Plus+ Extract - Energy and Endurance Products

Power Plus+ Extract (male or female) -- traditionally used for endurance, strength, and energy. The scientific studies state that the herbal extracts in this product help to increase the red blood count and, therefore, the oxygen carrying capacity of the horse -- vital to increase the horses energy (and, naturally, great for race horses). These herbs also help to increase the immune system and help the horse deal with the stress related to the routine and regimen of training.

-- Rick Violette Jr., Trainer

We have a lot of happy thoroughbred and standardbred trainers use M and F Power Plus+ Extract. The competition for these men and women is incredibly high. They have no time for products that do not meet or exceed expectations. Additionally, these trainers have to justify any increase to the owner's bill. We know these customers are satisfied because they tell us and they continue to re-order M and F Power Plus+ Extract. Here are some of the reasons why:

Mobile-Flex Extract - Arthritis & Soreness Products

Mobile-Flex Extract -- traditionally used for arthritis. The scientific tests state that the herbs in this product are more effective that "Bute" and safer than Ibuprofen. More importantly, this product differs from others because it actually help to eliminate some of the scar tissue caused by arthritis after approx. 6 weeks of use (Whitmore's Conn, above, is fed this supplement). For some horses, the ankle fluid actually begins to clear. One trainer told me that she never saw this before. Additionally, the ankles have to be injected less often -- this is common for race horses and older horses.
This saving, alone, pays for the Mobile-Flex. Retail Cost: $120/month's supply.

Item No.Mobile-Flex Extract $120 one month supply

"Without Mobile-Flex, Whitmore's Conn would not have won the $500,000 Grade I Sword Dancer Invitational at Saratoga. I have no doubt that Mobile-Flex made the difference. It was really exciting!"
-- Randy Schulhofer, Trainer

(In this race on August 9, 2003, Whitmore's Conn, an older horse that had never won a Grade I race before, was last in the 11-horse field. He rallied 7-wide and won drawing away. He paid $ 51.50. The owner's share of the purse was $300,000.)

Extracts vs Raw Herbs

Eliminate the guesswork about potency

This means the amount of active ingredients in the raw herb varies according to the plant's maturity, location, nutrients in the soil, weather conditions, and chemicals used in growing. With our extracts, each time you feed your horse, you know the potency scientifically.

Free from harmful microbes and other contaminates found in raw herbs

VERY IMORTANTLY, raw herbs can contain very large amounts of many different microbes - e.g. fungus, bacteria, salmonella, and e-coli. Because of state-of-the-art scientific procedures, Walkover Farms' extracts provide standardization and quality assurance that virtually eliminates all of these microbes and totally eliminates all salmonella and e-coli microbes.

Concentrated

Most of our products are concentrated. You will only need to feed your horse a small amount each day (e.g. 9 or 10 grams - about a tablespoon - each day). Therefore, your horse's appetite will not be ruined so that it will eat the other necessary feed and supplements required for its well being.

Shelf life of two years or more

Extracts that are stored properly (e.g. unopened, kept away from direct sun light, stored in a cool, dark place, etc.) have a shelf life of two years or more -- far exceeding the shelf-life of raw herbs.
