WHAT’S DIFFERENT ABOUT PROKALM?

• An innovation in managing stress and anxiety in horses allowing them to perform at their potential
• Rapid acting and effective calming supplement
• See results in as little as 15-30 minutes from feeding
• A unique combination of herb extracts and amino acids
• Does not contain valerian, magnesium or tryptophan
• ProKalm does not sedate or affect gait or performance

WHY?

• However well you manage horses, they are all individuals
• Once horses become anxious they may develop behaviours that make managing them difficult
• Stress and anxiety over long periods can also lead to greater susceptibility to infections, gastric ulceration and loss of condition
• Other stress related problems can include failure to train properly, poor recovery from exercise and competition and loss of performance
• ProKalm reduces anxiety leading to better control, better concentration, relaxation and easier management

WHEN?

• For any stress related problems or stressful conditions
• ProKalm is perfect for “taking the edge off” horses
• At moderate intake ProKalm is suitable for more demanding situations
• The highest level of intake can be used for horses that are difficult to handle, for example during clipping, shoeing, travelling, backing, etc
• ProKalm can be fed as required, either for an isolated situation such as shoeing or competing or can be fed daily to achieve a sustained reduction in anxiety

HOW?

• ProKalm is best given in feed on a regular basis
• The effects of a single dose can begin within 30 minutes and last for up to 8 hours
• The amount given can be varied to get the desired effect
• Some horses require higher doses than others
• For a strong calming effect, e.g. to clip, shoe, box or when first turning out, give 2-4 scoops for a 500kg horses in feed or mix with a little water and syringe around 1-2h before peak effect is required. 

• For a mild-moderate calming effect , e.g. for riding, travelling, etc give 1-2 scoops for a 500kg horse in feed or mix with a little water and syringe around 1-2h before peak effect is required
• For sustained calming over time, for anxious horses or those with vices e.g. cribbing, give 0.5 to 2 scoops for a 500kg horse in both morning and evening feeds for at least 7 days
• For first time use we strongly recommend feeding 2 x 25ml scoops per day split between morning and evening feed for a 500kg horse
• If the effect is too strong then reduce the dose
• If after 1-2 days the effect is not strong enough then increase to 4 x 25ml scoops per day and up to 6 x 25ml scoops per day after a further 1-2 days

AND?

• Why not magnesium? There is no scientific evidence that magnesium has any calming effect in horses
• Why not valerian? It is illegal under FEI and rules of racing
• Why not tryptophan? Tryptophan signals to the body that it is exhausted and has a negative effect on performance
• Why not acepromazine (ACP)? ACP during exercise increases risk of in-coordination, stumbling and injury
• Tested to be free from the prohibited substances caffeine, theobromine, theophylline, hyoscine, hordenine, morphine and atropine
• Proven in trials at Hartpury College
• Recent double-blind placebo controlled trials by Dr Sian Lawson in dressage horses showed a significant increase in stride length, vertical motion and judge’s scores on ProKalm
• Can be effective in horses with stereotypical behaviour
• Does not contravene FEI rules or rules of racing
• Scoop included
