Debbie Osborne's Animal Worming Recipe
by Debi Pearl of No Greater Joy Ministries
March 2003
Debbie Osborne told me of a natural parasitic that she uses with both her goats and horses.
Ingredients
- 1 cup dry Mustard seed - powder
- 2 cups Thyme leaf - cut
- 2 cups Wormwood herb - cut*
- 1 cup Black Walnut hull - powder*
- 2 cups Sage leaf - chopped
- 1 cup Garlic - minced*
- 2 cups Rosemary leaf - chopped
- 1/2 cup Cloves - chopped
- 1 cup Psyllium seed - powder
- 2 cups Diatomaceous Earth (D.E.)*
She says, “As a rule of thumb, I use 1 cup of the powdered herbs to 2 cups of the cut herbs, except for the cloves and the D.E.” The most crucial ingredients in the recipe are marked by an asterisk (*).
Directions
Sprinkle the mixture on their feed in the morning and evening for 7 days straight. A mature goat gets about 1 tablespoon in the morning and evening. A mature pony gets about 1/4 cup in the morning and evening. A mature horse gets about 3/4 cup in the morning and evening. Use slightly smaller amounts for offspring.
This recipe can be used with other animals. Just use your judgment on adjusting the amounts of the daily dosages according to the animal's body weight.

YEAH - you have a website - It is done so nicely - I just love it, and will share it with all who think I'm an herbal quack! A huge thanks for your products - I'm a big fan and try to "sell" others on the idea of herbs any chance I get. I have 4 small children and we haven't been to the Dr. for sickness in 2 years!! Some have never had a sick visit!! IT WORKS!

Did You Know?
The daily sprinkling of a little Cayenne powder on the toothpaste on your toothbrush can work miracles in fighting/preventing gums disease. That's right. It will also help deal with other oral ailments that plague many folks these days. After reading about this, we just had to try it. There is a warm sensation in your mouth as you brush your teeth, but it soon disappears after rinsing. As usual, whenever using Cayenne powder, one should start with very small amounts to allow the body some time to build up a tolerance. The first few times we used it, we sprinkled so little of the powder on the toothpaste that we didn't feel anything. As the days progressed, we increased the amounts slightly until we felt it was warm enough. After using it for a little while, the nice feeling in your mouth is very satisfying. Be warned, however, you do not want to over do this one, so start small.
