Transport situations, tournaments, training on new courses and the like can put a lot of stress on your horse's stomach.

Is Equine 74 Stomach Calm Relax recommended for all horses?
Equine 74 Stomach Calm Relax is drug and doping free - tested in the official FEI anti-doping laboratory in Germany - and can be given to any horse, whether sport or leisure horse, foal or pony.
Equine 74 Stomach Calm Relax is particularly suitable for generally nervous horses and horses that are prone to stress, have a sensitive stomach or irritated mucous membranes and/or are sensitive to new, unfamiliar or stressful situations. Stressful situations mean increased production of stomach acid for horses, which attacks the stomach lining. Such situations include competitions, trailer rides, changes in the herd, breaking in young horses or weaning foals.
The paste is sugar-free and very tasty due to the addition of vanilla and is gladly taken by all horses without exception. Depending on the outside temperature, the paste is sometimes a little more solid or liquid, but always easy to administer. We recommend warming the paste briefly in your hands before application on cold days.
Each syringe contains approximately 1.8 grams of magnesium. Magnesium has been shown to calm the nerves*, making it ideal for calming and relaxing horses in stressful situations. A large horse needs about 20 grams daily - an amount normally covered by feed intake. Due to the rapid decomposition process of the paste and the extremely high bioavailability of 98%, the magnesium acts extremely quickly.
