Calm-ESE by Kingdom Nutrition Company is an all-natural equine calming supplement built around a single source of magnesium, Vitamin B-1 (thiamine) and inositol for the horse. It is formulated to settle nervous, anxious horses while letting them keep the energy and focus they need to perform — a calming effect for horses that are weavers, stall walkers, cribbers and others that show anxious behaviors. Calm-ESE comes in two forms: an 8 lb daily-feed powder ($120.00) that tops two-month supply per bucket, and a fast-acting oral paste ($20.00 per tube) for events. You can order either form directly from Kingdom Nutrition Company at kingdomnutritioncompany.com, where shipping is free.
Calm-ESE is described by Kingdom Nutrition Company as a complete natural supplement that has been proven to calm a horse, enabling them to harness their energy and save it for the event. The company calls it the best source of magnesium, thiamine (Vitamin B-1) and inositol for horses. Inositol helps improve insulin function and helps lower blood pressure, and combined with magnesium and Vitamin B-1 it helps horses feel better and calmer — without losing focus or energy. Like every Kingdom Nutrition product, Calm-ESE is “test free,” meaning it is designed to help performance horses keep their energy, focus and calm during competition or stressful situations without affecting performance testing.
According to Kingdom Nutrition Company, Calm-ESE has been proven to calm a horse in three to seven days, enabling the horse to harness his or her energy and focus on the task at hand. It is meant to take the edge off without dulling the horse — the calm comes with focus and energy, not at the expense of them. The company notes it is particularly effective for nervous fillies and mares, while being beneficial across breeds and disciplines. Calm-ESE is intended to help horses cope and stay settled through unfamiliar environments, travel, competition and other stressful situations, and to ease the chronic anxious habits — weaving, stall walking, cribbing — that frustrate so many owners. Kingdom Nutrition Company stands behind the product with an unconditional refund guarantee if you are not satisfied.
The Calm-ESE powder guarantees, per ounce, 4,000 mg of magnesium, 1,000 mg of thiamine (Vitamin B-1) and 1,000 mg of inositol; its ingredients are yeast culture, magnesium oxide, alfalfa meal, thiamine mononitrate, inositol, soybean oil, natural & artificial flavor and mixed tocopherols as a preservative. Feed one to two ounces per head per day — ideally one ounce top-dressed over the morning feed and one over the evening feed — with the enclosed scoop holding one level ounce. The 8 lb bucket ($120.00) is a two-month supply. The Calm-ESE paste delivers a stronger per-dose punch (8,000 mg magnesium, 2,000 mg Vitamin B-1 and 2,000 mg inositol per 60 g syringe): give one tube 48 hours before an event and one tube 24 hours before. Paste is $20.00 per tube, and a box of 12 tubes includes two free (a $40 saving). Order both forms directly from Kingdom Nutrition Company at kingdomnutritioncompany.com, with free shipping on all products.
