Micropellets Magnesium Oxide Horse Supplement by Madbarn Read more.
Magnesium supports proper muscle function and a healthy nervous system in horses. This essential mineral is required for bone growth, metabolic function and healthy hooves. Magnesium oxide supplementation has been shown to have a calming effect in nervous horses.
This product is commonly used as an equine calming supplement. In one study, researchers in Australia fed 10 grams of added magnesium to horses (21 g total magnesium content in the diet) and observed a sedative-like calming effect that was comparable to a 0.04mg/kg bodyweight dosage of Acepromazine.
Magnesium oxide is the recommended supplemental source of this mineral for horses with good bioavailability. Compared to Magnesium Sulfate (Epsom Salts), it is safer and less likely to result in diarrhea.
