Product Information

Selenium Selenium is an essential micromineral that works closely with vitamin E as an antioxidant. It is involved in growth and muscle function. A mix of traditional calming herbs that help manage the behaviours and comfort of cycling mares, reducing unpredictability and aggression caused by hormone levels. There is no scientific evidence that this treatment actually helps difficult mares but it’s worth discussing this option with your vet if all other treatments have failed – and it’s certainly less drastic than having the ovaries removed. Tryptophan Tryptophan is an amino acid required to make the neurotransmitters serotonin and mielatonin. Maybe this morning’s refusal to be caught was her way of showing her independence. She gave in eventually but she made her point. She’ll do what I ask of her, as long as I ask nicely and I give her a biscuit or two. She does enough to keep me happy.

Choline Choline is an essential nutrient, often grouped with the B-vitamins. It is necessary for liver health, DNA methylation, neurotransmitter synthesis, and lipid membrane integrity. spoilt horses often get worse before they get better - just like spoilt children. one thing to remember is that it's not her fault - she can't help how she has been treated, any more than a 5 year old child can help how it is brought up and how it reacts to its parents, if they spoil it. i know it is hard not to dislike the dreadful screeching whining brats, either equine or human, but you do need to keep in mind that they know no better. So with this type of horse, the owner must throw the rule books away. Judge for yourself if you can live with such horses. They are an acquired taste. I had been riding her for 8 months and had only just started to win her over, though she would still act up now and again. Folate Folate (vitamin B9, folic acid) is important for enzymatic reactions such as DNA and methionine synthesis.
