Name: Calm Healthy Horses Alleviate
Rating: 4.95 (21 reviews)

Calm Healthy Horses Alleviate is an ultra-absorbable organic magnesium and boron supplement. (Non-swabbable)

Magnesium may help to relieve anxiety for ease of handling during times of stress such as: Attending events or competitions, standing starts at harness races, all aspects of race-day, hunting, endurance and trekking, being started (broken in), anxiety and excitability, travelling and having the teeth done.

Being sold and moved to a completely new environment can place a horse under considerable stress. Anything other than peacefully grazing or loafing around the paddock is potentially stressful to horses. The threshold at which they become stressed and how quickly they chill out again can depend on their magnesium levels.

As magnesium plays an integral role in nerve relaxation, brain function and muscle release it becomes obvious how important it is. In fact magnesium has at least 350 different jobs to do in the body so is constantly used up and needs to be replenished daily.

FAQ's

Why do horses become magnesium deficient so easily?

They have a large requirement being large animals comprising approximately 80% muscle, many of them, like the long back muscles and the hamstrings, are very large.

They also have extensive nervous and circulatory systems which constantly use up magnesium. In other words they have high maintenance requirements at rest let alone when in work. Their staple diet is more often than not, green, growing grass frequently giving rise to excess potassium in their system and this is antagonistic to magnesium absorption. When there is insufficient sodium in their diet the body uses up precious calcium and magnesium to excrete excess nitrates.

What's wrong with good old mag oxide, causmag or Epsom Salts?

The trouble is to get the same effect using these inorganic forms of magnesium you have to feed so much and then it can cause bowel troubles like diarrhea! (Both Mag Oxide & Epsom Salts -Mag Sulphate are used medically to clean out the bowel)

Is liquid magnesium more quickly absorbed?

There is absolutely no difference in absorbability between the liquid and the organic powder form.

Why feed magnesium daily?

Magnesium is in constant, high demand for multiple vital tasks in the body. There are no large storage deposits in the skeleton as there are for calcium. When there is insufficient in the daily diet the only places it can be borrowed from are muscle tissues including the heart with serious consequences. When magnesium is even temporarily unavailable in the diet then for that period, calcium cannot be deposited in the bones and teeth and the process of demineralisation begins.

I’ve been buying Alleviate for a number of years. Works so well on my pony’s behaviour. Highly recommend

It is a fantastic product. It has been great with my two fillies off the Track I believe that they are a lot calmer at events and in general when on this product.

Great product!

I like to have the Alleviate on hand for when I don't have time or run out of other product. Low dose for good results. Not sure what type of magnesium it is though

Fast efficient service

Great for the occasional use when things like floating , comps get them on edge.

Excellent product and the ordering process is fantastic with amazingly quick delivery every time!

Fantastic product and speedy delivery!

First time using this. Hopefully it helps my old horses arthritis.

Started using this product last year on advice from a friend, actually does work very well on our racehorses.

Great calming affect

I have been using this magnesium product for years and it works extremely well on my pony.

Fast shipping, good product - thanks

Great service and people. Can’t fault their products or advice

Amazing worked in days with my new sensitive pony. Love this product. I also use your vit.min. supplement. Great sevice. Thankyou

Alleviate has helped take the edge off my horses anxiety and it has been consistently excellent for about a year now. Very happy!!!

Combined with your minerals, Alleviate is perfect to just help take the "edge" off my reactive horse's' mind and bring him back to me. He then becomes a listening horse and we enjoy a safe energetic partnership in the Cutting Pen.

This is used to keep my horse sane in the tricky seasons/situations. He is a reactive horse at times

Ordered online and it arrived quickly, great product that takes the edge off our horse.

Love this product.

Have found this magnesium supplement helpful and the most cost effective solution for my teenage mare who was having repeated bouts of muscle tightness trying to bring her back into work. Noticeably happier and calmer within days (I was pleasantly surprised to notice such a rapid response) and the small daily dose is helping to keep her that way and lessen any need for massage therapy.
