A PLACID HORSE IS A HAPPY HORSE! Placide is French for 'placid' and we have a true desire that every horse owner in the world will understand how much health effects both the personality and the enjoyment of your best equine friend and that supplementing a normal diet with a cost effective nutrient like Placide will make this a reality! A horse tak... ing Placide supplements is a calmer and happier horse than one that is not and we do this by dedicating resource to researching and developing products that actually work! All products are perfectly safe for all competing horses and contain no banned substances whatsoever. Placide has a range of well proven products all based around one key ingredient - Magnesium. Magnesium is a natural mineral that is vital for over 300 different functions in the body. The body requires magnesium in relatively large amounts but does not store much. If it does not get sufficient from the diet daily, then it is forced to steal it from the nerves, the brain, the muscles and the heart. Then the body simply cannot function properly resulting in nerve endings becoming over sensitive causing touchiness, spookiness, muscle tenseness, hormone imbalance ;and impaired insulin response. Unfortunately, both New Zealand and Australian soils are generally very low in magnesium which in turn makes it harder for animals to obtain enough of this essential mineral. That is why we have developed Placide which is added in small amounts to a standard diet. We encourage you to give some a try. Within 3 weeks of adding Placide feed supplement to your horses you should notice a real difference!Read More
