Product Overview
The easy way to give your horse chasteberry
Smart & Simple Chasteberry Pellets are the perfect way to give your horse targeted support from chasteberry, which is also known as Vitex agnus castus. The berry of the chaste tree is thought to be particularly helpful in maintaining healthy pituitary gland function and supporting normal shedding in senior horses. In addition, it has been used for centuries to help maintain a balanced hormonal system, making it a great option for horse owners with moody mares or irritable geldings. This supplement is available in convenient pellets that even the pickiest eaters will love!
- Provides 3,000 mg of chasteberry in tasty, convenient pellets
- Ideal for shaggy seniors, moody mares, and irritable geldings

Gelding too lethargic
I tried this to see if it would help my gelding’s seasonal aggressive and pushy behavior. It mellowed him out too much - he was almost groggy. I tried a half dose and that may have been a little better but still not the awareness I want for my dressage horse. He seemed to gain weight also (maybe due to moving less?). Just not the right thing for him.

Not good for my horse.
I purchased this product, with another, from SmartPak because of its possible benefits to slow shedding horses. In a matter of just a few days (maybe 4 or 5) my gelding started behaving in a stressed manner. I noticed the change and so did the barn owner, who is super knowledgeable and very aware of any behavior changes. I took him off this supplement and called SmartPak. As usual, customer service was wonderful and helpful, plus I was asked to fill out a questionnaire and speak to a representative regarding the horse and his reaction to the product. This is so "smart" of SmartPak as they then have info that may be helpful to someone else. After taking my gelding off Chasteberry, it was only a matter of a few days until he was back to his normal behavior. Like people, not all products are good for EVERY horse.
I have been using SmartPak supplements for almost 17 years and this was the first time one of my five horses had a reaction. I LOVE SmartPak and am happy to continue using their supplements and purchasing their other products as well.
PS- I cannot say there is anything wrong with this product, just that it did not agree with my horse. I don't want to say yes or no as to recommending, as how would I know if it works for some other horse.

Glad to find this in a easy to administer form!
Much easier to get my pony to eat what must be a tasty pellet (he is very finicky) that dealing with liquids over his grain. Very reasonable price and SmartPaks always prompt delivery.

Effective and inexpensive
My mare is on this product and we love it. I purchased her in the winter and didn’t get to experience her cycle into months after owning her. She wasn’t moody just very uncomfortable and jumpy, not wanting to take contact and super hollowed out. I wanted to take the most natural route for helping her first before trying more intense hormonal routes. This worked right off the bat. I literally cannot tell when she is in heat now. She’s so much more comfortable and confident at all times. Before starting this she was a more “aware” horse and would be a bit on the spooky side. That has changed as well with this product. She’s very consistent now and isn’t so “looky”. Love this product

Mare is much happier
My mares first heat of the year was intense and lasted forever but she seemed much better after starting her on this. I wasn’t sure if it was the chasteberry until my replacement order was delayed and I ran out. She immediately went into a raging heat and was suffering with pain and swelling. I will definitely keep her on this. I’m a believer

Amazing Supplement for my Pony!
I had my veterinarian run an ACTH test to see if my grandaughter's pony, Pumpkin was indeed suffering from any pituitary issues. The test came back high-normal. Even before the testing, I knew he had something going on. He doesn't shed his heavy coat in the spring so we must body clip him for comfort starting in mid-March to early April. My other horse is already shedding out by early spring. My other horse is already shedding out by early spring. . Pumpkin's coat would grow right back, requiring monthly body clips all summer. Luckily, he is doing very well with muscle health. He is also on the Smart Muscle Mass.
Pumpkin has been on Smart & Simple™ Chasteberry Pellets now for over a year. By giving him the recommended half dose, he is a small welsh pony under 500 lbs, of Chasteberry with his daily supplements it keeps that coat from growing back. It has also, promoted normal shedding.
I have been extremely happy with the results of Smart & Simple™ Chasteberry Pellets and highly recommend it to anybody having shedding issues with their horse or pony.

Chasteberry seems to be helping my Cushing's pony.
This 12.2 H pony came to me weighing over 900 lbs and densely thick hair. She seemed tired and depressed. I could not afford Pergolide so I decided to give Chasteberry a try after reading some encouraging studies. She has lost weight on my control program, is brighter, and has more energy. I have had to body clip her as it is quite warm here. But, overall, I see a marked improvement in her health. I am halfway through my second month on the product.

Great
I bought this to use for my almost 30 year old gelding who the vet was afraid was at risk for getting Cushings. So far it seems to be helping our old guy out and is easy to feed to him.
