Manners Powder 1.2kg

MANNERS Powder is a blend of amino acids, vitamins and minerals which combine to produce a powerful natural calming effect. MANNERS is a natural alternative to chemical calming agents, in a convenient powder form for easy daily administration.

MANNERS Powder is a mix of essential nutrients and co-factors to help calm nervous or exciteable horses in situations where performance may be reduced because of agitation and nervousness. This includes situations such as travelling, strange or unfamiliar racetracks or competition venues, unusual crowds and noise, etc.

MANNERS Powder is useful as a daily supplement, either alone or in addition to TRANQUIL Paste in anticipation of stressful circumstances (e.g. competition or travel).

MANNERS Powder contains the amino acid L-Tryptophan, plus essential cofactors. Tryptophan is converted in the body to Serotonin, a major neurotransmitter (a chemical involved in transferring messages within the brain). High Serotonin levels result in a feeling of satiety, and help to induce feelings of relaxation and calmness. Tryptophan is known for its ability to calm nervous or exciteable animals, so that they do not waste energy and electrolytes.

MANNERS Powder contains a number of additional co-factors important to the performance of the nervous system. Magnesium is an important part of general cellular metabolism, especially in the nervous system and also in muscles during work. High magnesium levels have been associated with calming effects in horses that may be experiencing magnesium deficiency. Thiamine (Vitamin B1) is intimately involved in using carbohydrates for energy. It is also involved in cellular function within the nervous system and is well known as a calming supplement for nervous animals. Riboflavin (Vit B2) helps the mitachondria in cells actually produce energy to function properly. Pyridoxine (Vit B6) increases the ability of red blood cells to offload oxygen into muscle tissue for energy production, and is also involved in the breakdown of muscle glycogen for fuel. Folic acid is vital to cell repair. These effects combine to improve the mental state of nervous or exciteable horses more efficiently than any of the factors used alone.

Indications To help calm nervous or exciteable horses in situations where performance may be reduced because of agitation and nervousness. This includes situations such as travelling, strange or unfamiliar racetracks or competition venues, unusual crowds and noise, etc. Form Oral Category Behaviour Modifiers Travelling Feed /Dietary Supplements Vitamins, Minerals Amino Acids For Horse Manners Powder
