How These Minerals Were Discovered…
In 1932 an invisible threat known as the swine flu swept through the south, leaving the swine farmers reeling. At that time, there were no “factory farms” but rather small family farms in rural woodlands and on small lots.
In the midst of this era, a tale unfolded of a farmer raising swine in the vicinity of the current mine where the minerals used in NWM products are extracted. One day a breach in the pigpen's fence let loose a group of pigs, their curious snouts leading them to the mine's edge. Here, they found an unusual meal – mineral–laden clay. Later, as the deadly tide of swine flu surged, it spared not a single pig on the small hog ranch except the small band of pigs that had dined on the clay.
Word of this miraculous occurrence reached the ears of the local veterinarian, who wrote an article about it for his professional journal. When news spread to the bustling city of Chicago, a group decided to visit the area, eager to begin researching the properties of this remarkable clay. From this group emerged a company that is still prospering today.
HPW Amazing Grace started her life in an “amazing” way. She was separated from her mother at birth for at least three days, lost in the woods. Finding her alive and well was nothing short of a miracle.
She was eligible to be entered in the superior Morgan sweepstakes, however her age and condition stacked the odds against her. Thanks to Buckeye Mare’s Milk and Buckeye Foal Starter she was doing pretty good, however she was still challenged with the typical issues that can come from being raised as an orphan. Weeks before her training was to start, she started with a bad respiratory problem.
Harry was introduced to Natural Way Minerals Knockout a few days before we had to make the final decision on who to take. And Knock Out definitely showed up in the clutch. After only a few days, our Grace was better than ever and heading to Indiana to the Superior Morgan Sweepstakes. In a field of more than 60 weanlings, HPW Amazing Grace came in as the Reserve Champion! Knock Out is now a staple at our stable. It is definitely an amazing product!

Massive Koz started showing swelling, nasal discharge, and signs of strangles only weeks before the Memorial Day Trotting Sale. We started him on Knock Out Extreme and within 5 days the swelling and nasal discharge was gone.
