The Regenerative
Oil was tested by Wendy Robertson and Benny. Wendy has already gained an
HNC in Horse Managementand is currently working for her BHS Stage 2, having
passed her Stage 1 the day this photograph was taken.
Benny is a 16hh 6 year old dark bay Irish Draught cross gelding. He lives at
Hayfield Riding Centre and is ridden by riders of all standards but excels at
dressage. He has just started competing successfully at Novice level.

Wendy's
comments:
Benny suffers from
bald patches on his shoulders where his rug has been rubbing him. The
regenerative oil should encourage the regrowth of hair, so to see if there is a
difference I took regular pictures. The picture on the left was taken on 11th
January 2000.
As you can see, Benny's shoulder is quite bald! |
 |
| The instructions for
use are clearly marked on the bottle. To use, clean the affected area and apply
the oil with light upward strokes twice daily for the first week and daily
thereafter. Benny really seemed to like the oil as he continually tried to lick
it off my hands! By the end of the first week it was obvious that the hair was
starting to regrow. |

The picture on the
right shows Benny's shoulder after 2 weeks of applying the oil. As you can see,
there is a considerable difference.
At the beginning of this trial I was sceptical of the idea that an oil could
promote hair growth. Benny continued wearing the same rug throughout, so there
is no doubt that this product really does work.
