An anxious horse can develop behaviours that affect their behaviour, making them more difficult to handle or train. A horse that is difficult to work with or ride can be more at risk of injuring themselves or the person handling or riding them. Therefore, it is important to try and resolve this. The first approach to calming your horse is to assess its management and training, sometimes a simple change in these areas can resolve any issues. If you find that your horse is still anxious, and you have consulted your vet on any possible health issues that may be related to this, then you may want to consider using a calmer.
Magnesium is often the most common ingredient in many ‘calming’ supplements. Another common ingredient in horse calmers is tryptophan, which is an amino acid that is a precursor for serotonin (a neurotransmitter). The “happy hormone” replicating mood behaviour and a more amenable temperament.
Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is a yeast, has been seen in a growing number of research studies to improve digestion in horses and maintain a healthy hindgut environment. Therefore, given that Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been seen to maintain a healthy hindgut environment in horses, including those fed a high-starch diet, it is proposed that this yeast has the potential to act as a calmer in horses by stabilising the gut microbiota in horses
Vitamin B1 also has an important role in the production of the sleep hormone “melatonin”, thus also having a calming effect on the horse.
The wash and cream seem to be working very well. Fast delivery although the price for shipping was quite expensive.
It's amazing can't recommend enough
I bought this to get the mud off my mud magnets face. It’s brilliant. Very happy with my purchase and extremely swift response/delivery time.
Absolutely love it! !!
Love it's silky feel just what I wanted to complement my blue XC colours ( keeping my neck warm as well as looking good)

Equine Products UK Linseed Oil
The jacket is great, it’s breathable, keeps me warm and is also waterproof! Definitely great quality
My older horse is copper deficient and one sachet of this a month keeps him looking and feeling at his very best. He could pass off as a much younger horse now and I’m grateful!
All the horses took to having it in their feed well and although it's a little early to see any big changes, they all look very well and happy! Quick delivery and a great price.
My order was dispatched promptly. I needed to make a return and this was dealt with most efficiently. I will certainly shop with Equine Products UK again 👍🏻
This is an amazing piece of kit. It takes away all the hard work of brushing, and my pony, who usually objects to lengthy bouts of my cleaning him, almost sighed with pleasure . And it gets rid of the dirt easy peasy.
Prompt delivery, well packaged good quality product at competitive price
Honestly amazed by how much his cost has improved in the short time I have been using the linseed oil! Will definitely be keeping them on it!
Great product, good consistency & easy to apply
