Calming Formulas & Competition

Because calming supplements are designed to support calming, we recommend that you discontinue use at least 7 days prior to competition. If you have any questions, call and talk to a Platinum Advisor about the formulas you give to your competitive horse.

Calming Ingredients to Look For

Magnesium: A macromineral involved in both the nervous and muscular systems that is used as a first line of defense to support neuromuscular and behavioral sensitivities.

Calcium: It is important to keep the dietary calcium to magnesium ratio at about 2:1 so horses do not develop symptoms of muscle problems, irritability or hypersensitivity.

B Vitamins: Vitamin B1 (thiamin), vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) and vitamin B12 (cobalamin) are referred to as neurotropic B vitamins as they work together to promote nervous system health.

L-Theanine: A unique extract from green tea used by the brain to promote neurotransmitter production, relaxation and focus.

Magnolia Officinalis: Studies suggest this medicinal plant extract supports a normal stress response and promotes relaxation.

Phellodendron amurense: Combined with Magnolia officinalis, this bark extract supports a calming state as well as improving sleep.

A GI-Focused Approach to Calmness

Illness, stress, antibiotic use or a high-starch diet can compromise the delicate microbe population in the hindgut and impair the production of B vitamins which are important for normal nervous system function. Providing a daily source of pre- and probiotics along with omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins and trace minerals like what is found in Platinum Performance® GI can help to ensure horses have the B vitamins necessary to support calming.
