Help for nervous, jumpy or muscle-tight horses.
Nervousness and excitability can make an otherwise good horse
difficult, and while some horses are born nervous, others may suffer
from nutritional deficiencies.
The high-carbohydrate (high-grain) diets of many athletic horses can
actually aggravate these deficiencies and worsen symptoms that may
include nervousness and excitability as well as elevated blood lactate
and pyruvate levels which cause muscle tremors and cramping. Other
symptoms may include a lusterless hair coat and intolerance to work or
exercise.
New Formula 707 LifeCare™ Calming was designed to balance magnesium
and thiamin deficiencies and provide the additional calmative effect of
L-tryptophan. LifeCare™ Calming can help you create a horse that is
relaxed, focused and ready to work or learn.
A three-part solution
Thiamine, a vitamin of the B complex, has long been known to have a
calming effect on some horses when used in higher doses of 500+ mg/day.
Dietary thiamine requires magnesium to be converted to its active form
within the body and works with supplemental calcium to achieve its
calming effect.
L-tryptophan is an essential amino acid used in humans to combat
depression, anxiety and insomnia. A vital precursor to serotonin and
melatonin, important neurotransmitters associated with behavior,
L-tryptophan is widely used in equine calming agents.
Taken together on a daily basis, the three-part solution in Formula
707 LifeCare™ Calming of magnesium oxide, thiamine and L-tryptophan can
help high-strung horses settle down and concentrate on their work or
training.
