Why supplement with Magnesium for dietary concerns such as founder, obesity or cresty necks?

In a study we conducted in 2002/2003 horses with thick cresty necks (that were also founder prone), showed a reduction in neck thickness and hardness when fed a magnesium supplement. The reduction in neck thickness made the horses easier to manage and ride and handle as well being more aesthetically pleasing.

Feed Quiessence if your horse can be described as one or more of the following :

• Nervous, tense horses which show an inability to learn and concentrate will often show improvement if supplemented with Magnesium.

• Horses which tend to have tight tense muscles, are slow to warm up and have 'sore' or 'tight' backs, can also show improvement if Magnesium is supplied.

• Horses which are in work, kept in stables and fed on preserved and processed foodstuffs often benefit from Magnesium supplementation in their diets.

• Horses who are easy keepers and on a hay-only diet

• Horses prone to or with a history of founder

• Horses with cresty necks

• Horses whose weight is hard to manage either from low weight or obesity
  - this supplement serves to balance out their nutrient needs
