Steady-Up® is our popular and effective calming supplement, ideal for horses of a nervous or excitable nature to aid concentration. Chamomile and Lemon balm are included for their calming and soothing effects on the nervous system, as well as Magnesium, an essential nutrient that helps with nervous tension. Steady-Up® is fortified with B vitamins to promote optimum nerve function and contains Yeast to help maintain a healthy hindgut, especially during times of stress.
One of Feedmark’s flagship products, our popular and effective calmer Steady-Up® has been used for years by horse owners wanting to help their horse to relax and focus. It contains two forms of Magnesium, to aid absorption, as it is well known that a deficiency in Magnesium can lead to stressy, difficult behaviour. Another key ingredient is Brewer’s Yeast, a multi-functional ingredient, which contains naturally occurring B vitamins, to optimise correct nerve impulses and function, and amino acids, including Tryptophan. Tryptophan is used by the body to make Serotonin, a chemical messenger which is thought to stabilise mood. In addition to this, Brewer’s Yeast is a prebiotic, supporting the bacteria in the hindgut, helping to keep your horse happy and healthy. To ensure B vitamin levels are adequate, additional B vitamin complex is also added. On top of this, traditional herbal ingredients Chamomile and Lemon Balm encourage calm behaviour, working together to relax and calm your horse. Steady-Up® does not contain synthetic sedatives and can be fed long term to make riding and handling your horse a pleasurable experience.
