FAQs
Is MagCalm suitable for all types of horses?
Yes, it is designed for both horses and ponies of all ages and work levels.
What is the primary difference between this and other magnesium supplements?
MagCalm uses chelated magnesium (magnesium glycinate), which is significantly more absorbable by the horse than the common magnesium oxide or sulfate.
How long will a 1kg tub last?
For a 500kg horse receiving the standard dose of 50ml total per day, a 1kg tub will typically last approximately 20 to 25 days.
Can I feed this alongside other supplements?
Yes, but ensure you are not exceeding recommended total mineral intake levels if your primary feed is already heavily fortified.
Is it safe to use during competitions?
MagCalm contains standard nutritional ingredients, but always check your specific governing body's anti-doping regulations if you are competing at a high level.
Troubleshooting
Horse is a picky eater and leaves the powder
Mix the supplement with a small amount of dampened feed or molasses to ensure the powder adheres to the grains.
No noticeable change in behavior after one day
MagCalm is a nutritional supplement, not a sedative; continue daily administration for at least 7-14 days to allow blood magnesium levels to stabilize.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using MagCalm, introduce the powder gradually into your horse’s existing feed ration to ensure they accept the taste. For a standard 500kg horse, the dosage is 25ml (one level scoop) twice daily. Always ensure the horse has access to clean, fresh water, as electrolyte balance is vital when supplementing minerals. Store the 1kg tub in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly sealed to prevent moisture from compromising the powder quality. It is compatible with most standard feed regimes, but always consult with an equine nutritionist if your horse is already on a complex mineral-fortified diet.
