Crazy horse
I am not one to leave bad reviews but oh my gosh, this makes my gelding crazy! I put him on this to help his muscles. He was on the suggested dose and got the crazies. I reduced his dose and he still was fresh. Took him off of it because I figured he probably has enough magnesium in his diet. After changing hay from 2 alf 2 grass to all grass, I figured I should give it a try again. I couldn’t believe his reaction to the supplement. He is quite calm in general so it was very obvious. I wish it could’ve worked out because magnesium is amazing! He did eat this despite being very picky.

Worked Great - Mare Stopped Eating
For the time my mare did eat this supplement I noticed a positive change in her demeanor and behavior. Unfortunately the last time I ordered, she immediately went off of her feed. I first thought it was the Vitamin E pellets I started her on, but she ate those with no issue. I offered her the magnesium pellets by themselves and she refused. After taking out this supplement, she is eating again.
I just ordered the Ultra SmartCalm and I hope she will eat them.

Like the pellet, easy to feed, taste seems to be attractive to horses.

Actually Did the Opposite of Intended Use
I thought I would try magnesium for my OTTB that can be a bit tense. I've read that magnesium can help relaxing muscles particularly for horses who sweat a lot and get agitated while being groomed. In just two weeks of being on this, my gelding got excessively agitated and constipated. I found this odd, as they say the main thing you need to watch for with a magnesium supplement is loose stool. I've taken him off it and he's feeling much better. I will not be giving it to him again and if I consider magnesium in the future, I think I will try a liquid form.

So far so good!
My mare had been on this for 2 months now and I’m already seeing a difference. She is a super hot and pretty anxious horse naturally with this she is still energetic but it definitely takes the edge off. She’s less excitable and way more controllable. So far I’m happy with this product!
