Ingredients

Magnesium chloride

Magnesium chloride provides bioavailable magnesium – an essential mineral and a crucial component in a horse's electrolyte balance. Magnesium is involved in numerous physiological processes, especially in neuromuscular function and energy metabolism. An adequate supply can contribute to the support of the nervous system, muscles, and recovery – particularly during periods of increased demand, stressful situations, or during recovery.

Vitamin B6

Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) is an essential B vitamin naturally found in yeast, grains, and plant-based feeds. It is involved in normal amino acid and fatty acid metabolism and contributes to the physiological function of the nervous system and liver.

L-Tryptophan

L-tryptophan is an essential amino acid that the body needs to produce important endogenous neurotransmitters such as serotonin.
Serotonin is a neurotransmitter produced naturally by the body that plays a role in the central nervous system. In equine nutrition, a targeted supply of nutrients can support the nervous system and maintain internal balance—especially during periods of increased stress or after intense physical exertion.

Vitamin B1

Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) is a water-soluble B vitamin naturally found in grains, yeasts, and herbs. It supports normal energy metabolism and is involved in physiological functions of the nervous system and muscles. An appropriate supply can be particularly beneficial during high exertion.

Vitamin B2

Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) is a water-soluble B vitamin naturally found in yeast, grains, and green plants. It is a component of central enzymatic processes in energy metabolism that are essential for the energy supply and stimulus processing of nerve cells.
These same metabolic processes are also involved in cell regeneration and affect tissues with a high renewal rate, such as skin and hoof horn.

Ashwagandha

Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is a traditionally used plant extract with a natural content of phytochemicals. In horse feeding, Ashwagandha is used as a supplement to provide nutritional support for the nervous system and overall well-being – especially for older, sensitive, or hormonally challenged horses. An appropriate supply can support inner balance during periods of increased stress or transition.

Vitamin B12

Vitamin B12 (Cobalamin) is an essential B vitamin found in significant amounts only in animal components like fermented feeds or yeast. It is involved in normal energy metabolism and contributes to the physiological function of the nervous system. Targeted supplementation can be particularly beneficial for older horses or those under high stress.

Niacinamide

Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) is an essential B vitamin naturally found in yeast, grains, and plant-based feeds. It supports normal energy metabolism and can nutritionally assist the physiological processes in the nervous system. An adequate supply also contributes to the normal function of skin, muscles, and digestion.

Folic Acid

Folic Acid (Vitamin B9) is an essential B vitamin that must be obtained through feed. It supports normal cell metabolism and is involved in the synthesis of nucleic acids, which are important for the function of the nervous system.

Sodium

Sodium chloride provides the electrolytes sodium and chloride, which are important for maintaining the body's fluid and electrolyte balance. They contribute to the normal function of the nervous and muscular systems. Adequate supplementation can nutritionally support the physiological processes in the nervous system, especially during intense physical exertion, sweating, or stressful situations.

Withanolides

Withanolides are phytochemicals naturally found in the root of the Ashwagandha plant (Withania somnifera). In horse feeding, Ashwagandha is traditionally used as a supplement to nutritionally support inner balance during nervous tension or hormonal fluctuations – especially for sensitive horses or during periods of increased stress.

Product Questions

How many days does a bottle of Nerves Essentials last?

For full-sized horses (standard daily dose of 30 ml), one bottle of Nerves Essentials will last about a month. For small horses or ponies (standard daily dose of 15 ml), one bottle will even last about two months.

How long should I feed Nerves Essentials?

The duration of use should be determined on a case-by-case basis. Thanks to its natural ingredients, Nerves Essentials can be fed continuously. Many customers particularly like to feed it during times when the horse is under greater internal stress—for example, during changes in daily routine, a move to a new stable, training, or other stressful situations.

Can I prepare the daily ration of the nerve supplement in advance?

Yes, all of our products are suitable for meal prep. Nerves Essentials can be prepared up to 24 hours before feeding.

What is the difference between Nerves Essentials, Nerves Essentials Pro, and Nerves Booster?

Nerves Essentials intended for daily use—either on a long-term basis or during specific periods.

Nerves Essentials is not a sedative. With its natural ingredients, it can be used to provide nutritional support for nerve metabolism and inner calm.

How soon will my horse become calmer?

Results vary for each horse, depending on their initial condition, diet, and environment. Many customers observe changes in their horse's behavior, such as reduced nervousness or spookiness, after just a few days of consistent feeding.

What should I do if my horse is very nervous or spooky ?

If a horse consistently appears very nervous, spooky, or reacts strongly to environmental stimuli, you should always check whether pain, housing conditions, or feeding errors might be contributing factors. Nerves Essentials can be fed as Complementary feed to effectively supplement the daily ration with important nutrients and natural ingredients.

Is Nerves Essentials a good idea for New Year's Eve?

Many customers feed Nerves Essentials in times of unusual background noise—such as around New Year’s Eve—as a supplement to their horse’s daily ration. It’s important to remember that proper management (a quiet stable, a consistent routine, and consulting with a veterinarian if necessary) is always the foundation. Combining it with our Nerves Booster on New Year’s Eve is also a popular choice.

Is Nerves Essentials permitted in competitive sports (doping)?

Please observe a 48-hour withdrawal period before competition to comply with the current ADMR guidelines. For use in competition, we recommend our ADMR-compliant product Nervenstark Direct Nerves Essentials Pro.
