The Benefits of a Calm Horse and How Placide-M Can Help

A calm and balanced temperament in horses is essential for safety, performance, and overall well-being. Horses that are uncooperative, jumpy, ill-tempered, or headstrong can be difficult to handle and may struggle in training, travel, or competition. Placide-M, a natural magnesium supplement, is specifically formulated to support a calm and relaxed horse while promoting muscle health and overall performance.

How Placide-M Supports Calmness

Placide-M contains a highly available form of organic magnesium, combined with boron, designed to support the central nervous system and promote relaxation. Horses may benefit from Placide-M if they are:

  • Uncooperative or headstrong

  • Sluggish or lethargic

  • Ill-tempered or grouchy

  • Jumpy or anxious

  • Difficult to settle at shows or during travel

Unlike sedatives, Placide-M is a gentle, non-sedating solution, helping horses maintain focus and composure without compromising alertness or responsiveness.

The Role of Magnesium in Horses

Magnesium plays a critical role in muscle function, nerve signaling, and central nervous system stability. Horses are approximately 80% muscle, including large muscles such as the long back and hamstrings. When magnesium levels are low:

  • Muscles may become tight and tense

  • Movement and performance can be inhibited

  • Horses may appear jumpy or difficult to handle

How Boron Enhances Magnesium Benefits

Boron supports the body’s use of magnesium by reducing magnesium excretion by up to 40%, helping to maintain optimal levels for muscle relaxation and overall nervous system function.

Why Choose Placide-M

  • Promotes a calm and balanced temperament

  • Supports muscle relaxation and proper movement

  • Reduces stress and anxiety in challenging situations such as competitions or travel

  • Natural and non-sedating, safe for daily use

  • Suitable for a wide range of horses, from performance horses to older or anxious animals

Using Placide-M

Horse owners and trainers are encouraged to consult a veterinarian or equine professional to determine appropriate dosage and usage for individual horses. When used correctly, Placide-M is a valuable tool to enhance both the emotional and physical well-being of horses, supporting their performance, comfort, and overall health.
