Product Overview
Which horses benefit from calming support?
Supplements in this category are an ideal starting point for any horse that is excessively nervous, edgy, reactive, unconfident, or spooky. That’s because the vitamins and minerals these products offer help smooth out deficiencies in the diet that can interfere with proper nervous system function.
Additionally, if you compete in rated horse shows, supplements in this category may be your best option. Unlike herbal calming supplements that often include ingredients that are prohibited by many competitive organizations, nutrient-based supplements generally focus on providing key nutrients like tryptophan, magnesium and B-vitamins that are an important part of your horse’s diet. Of course, we always recommend checking the rule books for any organizations under which you compete to confirm their individual rules and that these ingredients are appropriate.

SUPER AWESOME PRODUCT!!
I'm not kidding...my husband was ready to get rid of his 19 year old Tennessee Walker due to his barn sour, high strung, powerful will. After 3 days of taking SmartCalm, his horse seemed calmer, more attentive and manageable. This product helped my husband and his horse develop a rider/horse relationship that he never thought was possible! I swear by this product . . !!

Big improvement!
Ordered these supplements to help my horse with being tense over the winter when working less and not as often. There has been a noticeable difference in her after a few weeks on the product.

Miracle worker
I bought this for a horse I am training. This was really one of her last options. The lady that I am riding her for has back issues and this horse was spooking, had random bucking fits and this was even on the ground. She would be just tied up and rear up. She came down with a virus last week. After having an entire week off, this horse was taken off property. She was perfect without lunging. Sliding stops, spins, rollbacks. It was perfect. I’m so glad this supplement works.

Great but didn’t do much for my guy
He loved the taste, but didn’t see much of a change in the winter crazies :( changed over to a different brand

Calming pellets
I’m not sure if it’s working yet but I have high hopes. I don’t really see that much of a change so far but it’s early.

Product that works!
I bought this product for my barrel racing mare and the results have been awesome. We went from always having the turbo jets on even during just leisurely arena work to being able to trot and lope nice calm collected circles without the extra flare all the time. She still kicks the turbo jets on when asked and has taken nothing away from her ability to race and be competitive but she is definitely more even tempered now. Easy going into the gate at races, easy to warm up and so much more pleasurable to ride during the week. Love this product!

Amazing
My 5 year old tb had been getting a bit more frisky and spooky than he had been in warmer months (which was expected), so I put him on this hoping it would help take the edge off and within ththe first 4 days I saw great results. He is more relaxed, focus and willing to listen! I'm so happy I started him on smartcalm he loves it and it doesn't break the bank!

helped a little
She has been taking this for 5 months and I think there was some relaxation effect from it. Inattention is not her problem; it is more like over-focus. Now that winter is here, she has explosive energy and she is only eating grass hay and has lots of time outside. I am thinking about the Ultra, but on the other hand maybe she is who she is?

Saw Noticeable Change
I have a wonderful hunter who is 7 years old. About 2 months ago I started him on SmartCalm. As we are coming into the winter months, I thought of last year when he was horrible and unpredictable, (even with Full Traning). This is not good for a 52 year old amateur!
Great news! The pellets r working! I know this, because he is as happy as the rest of the year, but it not suddenly spooking, or bucking as he did last year. And he is even better on our trail rides through all the “scary” areas. I would recommend SmartCalm to any equestrian looking for the results we got. I plan on continuing its use even after the winter months!

Works wonders for my horse
I’ve had my horse on SmartCalm ultra pellets for a few months and it worked wonders to relax her within a few days. I no longer needed long rides to settle her. I switched to the SmartCalm, and she is still doing great.

Not what I had hoped for.
Purchased for my 9 year old rescue gelding, who carries tension generally and experiences boredom in his diet pen. Hoped to see decreased tension and increased relaxation. Alas, no quick fix here. I'm opted to spend my money on joint and coat supplements instead. I did order the SmartCalm paste to try.

Not the best so far
I have an OTTB who has plenty of energy and can also get pretty nervous and unfocused when he is away from his barn buddies (in and out of the arena). I have had him on SmartCalm for about 2 months now and I haven't seen much improvement. The only time he seems lazier than usual is as soon as I get on him to warm him up. After that, he is back to his old self. He isn't terrible in general but I was hoping that this would help him focus more. I am going to keep him on it for awhile longer to see if he just needs to be on it for a longer period of time. I will update when I have more news.

First month but it's working!
I started my mare on this a month ago, she's not really "hot" per say but did have some issues with focus and was easily agitated. She's still the sassy little mare I know and love but is much more patient under saddle and seems more focused on what I'm asking her to do instead of busy complaining about every little thing. I plan to keep her on this supplement long term and I hope the results continue!

Worked but....
I put my very reactive thoroughbred on Smartcalm. I could definitely tell he wasn't freaking out as much and recovered quicker when he did spook. After being on Smartcalm for about 3 weeks I noticed he was covered in hives. The only thing in his life that had changed was putting him on the Smartcalm so I took him off. Within a few days his hives went away. So, unfortunately, hes allergic to something in this supplement but it was helping with his nerves while under saddle.

Works great
After 4 days I noticed a total change in willingness to learn. She is totally focused on me now, not the other mares.

Worked great!
I bought this for my skittish appaloosa, he would spook at most things and he was always spunky and inattentive around other horses passing by the ring.
I saw amazing results, and now Im not scared to ride him on the grass field.

Takes the edge off
This supplement works well when you just need to take the edge off a horse's nerves without dulling them out. If you need a significant change I would recommend the smart calm ultra, but the smart calm will nicely bring them down a notch.

Great stuff
Purchased this product for one of my horses that is on stall rest. It really helped her to stay more calm. I also tried on my other 2 mares, one is also on mare magic for bad heat circles and one that can not have mare magic that was having a bad heat circle, It worked great on both. I have notices my horses are more relaxed and stay focused more. I noticed a change in 2 weeks in all 3 of my mares!!!! :) I am very happy with this product. A freind at my barn noticed the change in my mares and has started her horse on it also.

Big dufference
I was using this supplement to help my pony through the stress of learning flying changes. He was so
Much better that I decided that magnesium was something he needed to keep getting. Great product.

WOW! What a difference!
I'm serious guys, my horse had become practically unrideable because of his anxiety before I put him on this supplement. He was previously on Smart Tranquility, which worked for a while, but soon his fears began to be all-consuming and he was constantly on the brink of becoming dangerous. Just a week into consuming Smart Calm, he's become a gentleman and a scholar! I have a completely new horse! I cannot recommend this supplement enough!

So Impressed!!
I brought my OTTB (9yo) home in September of 2016. I bought him from a trainer I previously worked for down in South Texas and he came slightly under weight and a but sluggish. After moving him to Pittsburgh, he blossomed like crazy on the nice pastures and started to feel MUCH hotter and began to have some issues focusing and relaxing into work. It got to the point where every ride for a few months was a struggle to accomplish anything due to how long it took to get him on task. After ruling out anything physical issues, decided to give the Smart Calm a try even tho I am not a fan of slow-me-downs. I definitely didn't want something that was going to make him dull and I'm SO happy I gave Smart Calm a try! After only a week he comes in focused and ready to rock without being out of it or dull. We are both much happier and he can use his brain without getting distracted and we no longer argue in our rides. Worth every penny and I can't say enough good things about it!

Subtle but perfect!
The calming affect was subtle...not too much like a change in personality but just enough to take his hyper edge down a few notches.

So easy to use!
My horse has to be on stall rest due to an injury. We had some left over Calm Ultra so I started him on that. When that ran out I ordered the Calm. The Calm actually chilled him out better than the Ultra Calm.

Used for horse on stall rest
So far, so good...I think they are making a difference. Will continue for the next month, but he does seem more focused and less squirrelly.
