Magnesium is an essential mineral for the equine body. Often underestimated, it plays a vital role in stress management, muscle support andnervous balance. Whether your horse is a competitive athlete or a leisure companion, ensuring optimal magnesium intake is essential to its health and performance.
Why is magnesium important for horses?
Magnesium is involved in over 300 enzymatic reactions. It is involved in muscle contraction, nerve transmission, heart rate regulation and behavioral relaxation. In horses, it is particularly useful for preventing cramps, muscle tremors and excessive stress-related reactions.
Signs of magnesium deficiency
Magnesium deficiency can manifest itself as :
- Unusual nervousness
- Frequent startle attacks or unexplained fears
- Concentration difficulties
- Trembling or stiff muscles
- Poor recovery after exercise
- Stress-related digestive disorders, colic...
These symptoms should give cause for alarm, especially in horses undergoing intensive training or undergoing a period of change (climate, environment, diet).
When should you supplement your horse's feed?
The magnesium content of hay or pasture can vary greatly depending on the soil. Horses that are athletic, under stress or sweating a lot have increased needs. Targeted supplementation can help restore balance and prevent muscular and behavioral disorders.
