Magnesium Supplement Horses Nerves

A: A deficiency of B-group vitamins, magnesium and/or tryptophan have been linked to symptoms of nervousness and hyperexcitability. Dietary supplementation has been reported to be effective as a mood stabiliser. Moreover, nervous stress plays havoc with the horse’s digestive system, disrupting the normal healthy balance of gut microflora and allowing pathogens to flourish.

Sootha Nerves & Stress contains ProN8ure which restores the gut microflora balance, helps to improve digestive efficiency, and reduces the effects of stress with a high dose of B-vitamins, magnesium and tryptophan. How to tell if your horse is stressed?
