PURINA RECALLS HORSEFEEDS

A Nevada horse rescue friend of mine emailed me this VERY important info that PURINA RECALLS HORSEFEEDS. I suggest that if you feed this stuff to your horses and other critters that I would look into it really good. It is a mess of info out there but I wanted to pass along this news. Good Luck ya'll!! J~

I Google the subject line and found this horse blog:
http://www.horsegroomingsupplies.com/horse-forums/purina-recalls-horsefeeds-197308.html

""I think 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. It is unconscionable that they have made no effort contact the end users. On 4/9 they recalled 27 equine products, including senior and the platformline. 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 disfunction, immune suppression and neurological difficulties.
