Stresscare Calm - Tone - Defend - All in one. Our number 1 product. Can be used continuously throughout the year. 1Kg refill packs and tubs.

BEHAVIOUR & NERVOUSNESS - VALERIAN FREE Stresscare is a powerful product and helps horses cope with stressful situations, strengthens the body and acts as an antioxidant and immune modulating agent. Situations that make your horse nervous can often lead to bad behaviour, poor performance and a weak immune system.

Stresscare is unlike any other product. It helps with confidence and attitude. It contains just tropical herbs and helps horses concentrate on their work and thus compete more effectively. It can be used in conjunction with many of our other products, particularly where behavioural issues arise.

After the first few days of use of Stresscare horses may become more active as they start to feel 'at ease'. This period lasts a short while and soon these individuals become models of good behaviour. Uses:

1. General Calming, anxiousness, aggressiveness, timidity

2. Stressful situations, travel, handling, clipping,

3. Vices

4. Performance related difficulties. Overexcitment in the ring

5. For better fitness and stamina

6. For muscle concerns, control and prevention.

PRESENTATION: A powder 1Kg tub or refill packs. Also available as a syrup.

ADMINISTRATION: Introduce in the feed gradually over 2-3 days and build up to an approximate rate of 2 level 25ml scoops twice daily per 500kg bodyweight ( an average horse). This is equivalent to 10g per 100kg daily. After using this amount for 1-3 months try reducing the level as you find suitable to maintain effect. 1lg lasts an average horse 3-6 weeks. To maintain healthy muscles feed continuously to maintain antioxidant levels in the blood.
