Magnesium 5,000™ pellets support proper muscle function and a healthy nervous system in horses. This essential mineral is required for bone growth, metabolic function and healthy hooves. Magnesium supplementation has been shown to have a calming effect in nervous horses.

 

Magnesium plays many roles in the horse’s body. It is involved in the formation of bone and protein synthesis, helps to maintain electrolyte balance, influences nervous system regulation and is a co-factor for a number of enzymes. Low magnesium levels or deficiency can contribute to nervousness, depression, abnormal behavior, muscle tremors, lack of coordination, respiratory problems, growth failure and more. Magnesium supplementation may lessen abnormal fat deposits such as cresty neck which could lead to improvements in metabolic health.

Magnesium (Mg) is a macro mineral that is frequently recommended for a wide range of equine health conditions. Magnesium helps to maintain normal muscle and nerve function, a healthy heart, healthy immune system and strong bones. Magnesium aids to regulate blood sugar levels, promotes normal blood pressure, and known to be involved in energy metabolism and protein synthesis. Since a symptom of magnesium deficiency is agitation or anxiety, it is included in many calming supplements.

 

My horse is always nervous and someone suggested I try magnesium. Can this help him? 

MVP:  Horses who are excessively nervous, tense, edgy or unfocused may be deficient in magnesium. Magnesium plays an important role in normal nervous system, metabolic and muscle function.

 

 

I read up online that magnesium is great for horses who experience back stiffness and who are lacking in interest in working, will this product be helpful to eliminating back pain?

 

MVP: Magnesium helps to support normal muscle contractions, so Magnesium 5,000™ may provide support for horses that have muscle soreness. If your horse has back stiffness or seems to be uninterested in working, we recommend working with your veterinarian to determine if there is an underlying issue that may need to be addressed.

    Since Trigger has been on magnesium (8 days or so) I’ve noticed he is less reactive, more chill and focused even on the windy days like today. Magnesium 5000 is helping us get ready for TRFAM in August. Thank you!!

    I feed 1000mg daily to my mare after my vet recommended . It helps keep her from being so moody. Everyone also comments how good she looks.

    This isn’t my first time using this product! I feel it makes a big difference with my mare’s sore muscles, especially with spring grasses! And have the pellet makes things so much easier for us.

    Saw quick results on leveling out the stress level and reactivity in my two "extra" horses. Maintained a nice even-keel on all the mares!
