Horse Trainer at Prairie Meadows uses Vetericyn to heal horses' wounds and infections.

96.2% water, 3% thickener, 0.2% bleach and bleach byproduct. I sternly suspect that the product has no real healing power other than getting people to pay attention to their animal's wounds.

Bottled saline solution would probably be just as effective and 1/10th the cost.

$260/gal for vetericyn vs $26/gal for optical saline solution.

I suspect snake oil salesmanship is strongly in play here.

Holy water seems to be primarily sodium hypochlorite, a commonly used swimming pool chemical anti-microbial. Rather than spend big money for this hyped remedy, just use a diluted version of SHOCK (swiming pool chenicals). I have even taken this powder orally as a medicinal in small amounts to good response. Jim Humble has done work with this chemcial.
