Mollichaff Calmer Complete is a highly palatable, complete fibre feed that is suitable for horses and ponies that are prone to nervousness or excitability.
Mollichaff Calmer Complete contains a balanced blend of fibre pellets, oat straw, dried grass, herbs, soya oil, vitamins, minerals, limestone and trace elements. It also includes a carefully formulated combination of camomile, lemon balm and mint.
It supplies elevated levels of magnesium because a diet deficient in magnesium can result in increased muscle contraction, making the horse less able to relax and more likely to become excitable or ‘fizzy’. It also contains Vitamin B1 and B12.
Low in both sugar and starch, Mollichaff Calmer Complete provides limited controlled energy from high quality, digestible fibre and oil-based ingredients, making it an excellent feed for horses and ponies that are easily excited. It can be used as the sole concentrate feed as it contains a broad-spectrum vitamin and mineral supplement, and it carries the HoofKind logo to show that it is safe to feed to horses and ponies prone to laminitis.
