"My gelding paces the fence line when the barn empties out. 3 weeks in and he grazes through it. Same horse under saddle, just less static."

"Farrier finally got all 4 feet done without a rodeo. He's not dull, he's just settled."

The formula

What's inside the bag

5 calming actives, zero dull. Support for the nervous system, not a sedative.

Magnesium

The nervous system's steady hand. Hot horses are often running low on it.

Taurine

An amino acid that supports calm focus without dulling the horse underneath.

L-theanine

The green tea calm. Settles the edge for trailering and show mornings.

Ashwagandha

A time tested adaptogen that helps horses handle stress instead of wearing it.

Vitamin B1

Thiamine supports normal nerve function. A classic in calming programs for good reason.

Apple flavor chassis

Same alfalfa and real apple pellet as the rest of the barn. The tub still gets cleaned.

Full guaranteed analysis and per scoop amounts print on every bag. No proprietary blends, no hiding the numbers.

Questions

FAQs

How much do I feed?

1 scoop top dressed on regular feed every day. 2 scoops the morning of trailering, shows or vet and farrier visits. The scoop comes in the bag and final directions print on every label.

Will it make my horse dull or drowsy?

No. This is nervous system support, not a sedative. Owners describe it as the same horse with less static. Same forward energy, steadier focus.

How fast does it work?

Levels build over weeks 1 to 2 with consistent daily feeding. Most owners notice quieter big days in weeks 2 to 4, with the full baseline by day 60.

Will my picky horse eat it?

That was half the design brief. It's an alfalfa based pellet with real apple, built to disappear into the feed tub. Top dress it on regular feed.

Where is it made?

Blended, pelleted and bagged in the USA with domestic and imported ingredients. Every batch ships with a certificate of analysis, and the full guaranteed analysis prints on the label.

Is it show safe?

Built from ingredients common in daily feed programs. Some associations restrict calming support before competition, so always check your association's current rules before events.

How do I store it?

Cool, dry place, out of direct sun, bag resealed. Use within a few months of opening for peak freshness.
