I never intended to go into business, I only wanted a pelleted supplement in my feedroom that soothed my "savage beast." Friends saw how it transformed “Music,” wanted the same results for their horses, and EZium was born. If it worked for “Music,” I know it will work for you.
So, What Exactly IS EZium Chelated Supplements For Horses?EZium is a daily equine supplement that provides a unique source of magnesium, chelated for maximum absorption. Magnesium deficiencies can be brought on by stress, adrenaline, and physical exertion. Feeding EZium daily prevents the symptoms of magnesium deficiency that can lead to poor performance such as hyperexcitability, erratic behavior, muscle cramps, and metabolic disorders. Positive results in deficient horses can generally be seen within one to two weeks.
But Why Do I Need "Magnesium Glycinate"-- Won't Any Form of Magnesium Do?Horses with metabolic issues often have insulin resistance, meaning their cells don’t respond efficiently to insulin. Magnesiumhas been proven by research toimproveinsulin sensitivity, supportmuscle function, andtolower laminitis risk. Magnesiumlowers blood sugar by sensitizing the insulin receptors,resulting in a more normal insulin response.
* Magnesium is a cofactor for enzymes involved in carbohydrate metabolism and insulin signaling. If a horse is low in magnesium, insulin resistance can worsen.
* Supplementing magnesium (especially in a highly absorbable form like glycinate) may help improve the horse’s glucose control and reduce spikes in blood sugar.
* Magnesium supports muscle relaxation and helps reduce stress or tension, which can be high in metabolic horses due to discomfort from laminitis or body soreness
* Magnesium glycinate is known for being gentle on the stomach and more calming than some other forms, which may help a metabolic horse that is also anxious or tense
* Magnesium has a role in reducing inflammation. Low Magnesium concentrations are associated with increased cytokine production and systemic inflammation. Supplemental Magnesium has also been shown to benefit horses impacted by endotoxemia, such as after a colic or bout of laminitis.
No! Because EZium contains a chelated source of Magnesium, the recommended dose does not provide an excess of Magnesium which can interfere with the absorption of other nutrients or cause diarrhea. The quantity of the highly available source of Magnesium provided by feeding two level scoops of EZium per day has been found to be ideal for most horses. But no horse is the same! So for maximum health and performance benefits, your horse may require slightly more or less. Feel free to contact us to discuss your horse's specific needs.
All horses need magnesium! Getting lots of rain with green grass? Fast growing grass is LOW in magnesium and High in sugar, which can result in laminitis! Performance horses, horses that sweat, horses that don't sweat, horses that work out frequently or older horses can be especially prone, as can lactating mares-- just about every horse can greatly benefit from the protection thatEZium has to offer!
Often it is the magnesium oxide or sulfate--- or not enough. EZium was developed by an Equine Veterinarian ( Dr. Teena Middleton, a Ph.D. nutritionist with over 25 years of experience!)Remember: Magnesium will not help your horse-- if it can't be absorbed into the horse's body!
So glad you asked. As a horse owner herself, Dr. Teena realized that while an outstanding basic EZium formula was desperately needed, horse owners with Gut or Metabolic Issues could benefit from specialized formulas, carefully designed for them. We have different sizes for Every budget in our Shop-- or find us at Amazon!
* EZium- This is our basic chelated magnesium formula containing magnesium glycinate in an alfalfa based pelleted formula. All EZium products are available for purchase in one-month, two-month, or four-month supply sizes at the recommended dose of "one scoop twice a day.”. We have pails, pouches, boxes, and bags. Reseach shows that true amino acid chelates such asMagnesium Glycinate are the most bioavailable, best absorbed, and the most retained of all mineral forms on the market. It’s often chosen because it isbetter absorbed and gentlerthan other forms of magnesium.”
Cricket G"After one month I noticed my horse's topline filling in better. He also seems more focused on his work. I feel EZium is a very worthwhile supplement for all performance horses."
Becca E.One day during a magna-wave session, the woman that was doing the treatment recommended your product as a supplement in my feed program for her. I had owned Abbey for approx 6-8 months at this point. So we ordered a pail of Ezium and the rest is history. Halfway through our order I noticed a sizable difference in her demeanor. She was much less focused on the world around her... at least much less hyper-focus on the every day things that she would get antsy about such as if a broom tipped over or if the cross ties banged against the wall as you let them go when taking her back to her stall. Training became easier and overall she was just blossoming in weight and coat. Fast forward to the end of last summer where the second picture was taken at a barrel race. Yes, that’s Abbey with her first official trophy award! Abbey and I competed in a fundraiser barrel race to support kid’s cancer research and won a top spot in one of the divisions cutting a check and a sweet set of beaded spur straps. What made this even more special was that we ran our best personal time in this arena (one we frequent often) and beat my goal for us for the year. When I began hauling her in the early spring we would typically run 17. 4 second patterns in this arena and that day we ran a 16. 2... a huge improvement! I know I have Ezium to thank for our success as a huge contributing factor. Abbey is a different horse on this product... happier, more mellow, focused and healthier! Thank you again for your great produc t, my feed room is never without it!

Does Your Horse Suffer From "Leaky Gut" Syndrome?
Leaky Gut Syndrome in horses is actually very common and FEW horses know what it is--- and FEW know how to help it. Our EZium+ Enteric was designed Especially for horses suffering from Leaky Gut. Watch our video below
"I rescued this mare from auction not knowing she had major aggression. I tested her for many things and tried many treatments including ulcers, hormone therapy and other pain treatments. The only thing she responded to was EZium and CBD pellets. This mare was so dangerous, I was not able to go in the pasture with her for almost four months. Could only handle her through the fence on a good day. After 7 weeks on EZium, I could pet, brush her, flyspray and pick up feet. The change was amazing. I have used EZium for years on other horses with anxiety and other issues. I had no idea that aggression like this was a mag deficiency. Ezium truly saved this mare's life! "
Terri S.
"EZium was suggested to me by my trainer when my young horse started exhibiting signs of stress from trailering and increased training. Prior to using EZium, my normally level-headed young mare who lives outside 24/7 had started to show signs of stomach discomfort and I treated her for ulcers. I started her on EZium and saw a very quick change in her reaction to training - she became more calm and willing and seems very comfortable now. This is a product that is very easy to use and she readily eats it! It is now a permanent part of our nutritional program."
Heather M.
"An equine nutritionist helping me manage an insulin resistant horse I had in my dressage training program first told me about EZium Metabolic. I checked out the website and when I read through the list of signs your horse might have a magnesium deficiency, I immediately thought of another horse I had in my training program. Both horses, the IR horse and the horse with a resistant and sometimes spooky nature got started on their respective EZium products at about the same time. The change in the spooky and resistant horse was nearly immediate. I noticed a difference within 4 days and within 2 weeks the horse came off his calming supplement. Within a few months he had progressed enough that he was able to go home and work with his owner full time. The metabolic horse was showing more energy and looking more healthy and happy within a few weeks. He had more spring in his step and his weight improved. I was so impressed with the product that I put my young horse, who you could describe as not having a fantastic work ethic, a bit grumpy about putting himself together, on EZium and what a different horse! He is focusing better. His muscles glide, he is feeling fit and strong and willing. I now recommend this product regularly to my students and I have seen results each and every time." Michelle L.
"I struggled keeping my horse quiet and ever since being on the original EZium, he has been an angel to ride. I also have laminitic 23 year old pony who is on the Metabolic EZium and it has kept him happy and healthy"
Kirsten H.
"I got Abbey about 2 years ago and she was in some pretty rough condition from a second set of hands that had her after her race career. To this day I never understood what I thought I saw in her at the time, because as you can see, it was rough. My goal was to train Abbey from the ground up to become my next up and coming barrel racing mount. I had taken a lengthy hiatus from the rodeo/barrel racing world when my gelding retired and it was time for me to get back into it. Training Abbey was difficult and just handling her in general was even a challenge. The smallest amounts of movement or sound would trigger her to get jumpy, antsy and occasionally inconsolable over the matter.
“I put my special needs reiner on EZium metabolic formula last month. Just wanted to let you know it’s working great for his busy little mind. The EZium along with ulcer treatment has made a world of difference. Cobra is a reserve world champion now and gobbled up his supplement every morning at the show. He is a dream come true! He’s insulin resistant but blood work has been great for the past year and he’s lost a lot of his crest since I started adding chromium to his diet. I love that the EZium metabolic has chromium added to it. No more yucky liquid. Thank you!!” Lea I. Every Horse Can Benefit From EZium!Minerals-- especially MAGNESIUM are everything to the health of your horse! If you get too much rain and the grass grows too fast, it doesn't have the time to absorb minerals the way it should and horses can get Laminitis or Founder. Without proper levels of magnesium, your horse can also become nervous, restless, spooky and just generally lacking in focus and well being. Most magnesium in your feeds are just not absorbable in amounts that can benefit for your horses. Make sure you have EZium from EZium.org to keep your horses at optimal health and performance--- there is literally Nothing Like IT on the Market today!

Says creator Dr. Teena Middleton, Ph.D.: Have you ever had a horse that you just knew had lots of talent but they were always too something to achieve their potential? For me, that horse was MUSIC OF MY HEART. Everyday was something different — too tight, too reactive, too sensitive. I tried everything before I discovered the power of chelated magnesium. There was no affordable chelated magnesium option that was easy to feed, which was why I invented EZium. Friends saw how it transformed MUSIC, wanted the same results for their horses, and EZium was born.

Positive results in deficient horses can generally be seen within one to two weeks.
Many forms of magnesium simply aren't absorbable by the horse. The chelated Magnesium Glycinate in EZium is more bio-available than forms such as magnesium oxide, magnesium citrate, or magnesium proteinate. The glycine component itself has mild calming properties, which can be useful for nervous or stressed metabolic horses.
Horses with metabolic issues often have insulin resistance — their cells don't respond efficiently to insulin. Magnesium has been shown by research to support insulin sensitivity, muscle function, and lower laminitis risk. Magnesium is a cofactor for enzymes involved in carbohydrate metabolism and insulin signaling; if a horse is low in magnesium, insulin resistance can worsen.

No — because EZium contains a chelated source of magnesium, the recommended dose does not provide an excess that interferes with the absorption of other nutrients or causes diarrhea. As for who needs magnesium: all horses do. Performance horses, horses that sweat, horses that don't sweat, horses that work out frequently, older horses, and lactating mares can be especially prone to deficiency. Fast-growing grass after lots of rain is low in magnesium and high in sugar, which can result in laminitis.
