We use this product on a maintenance dose all year round but when it is spring, we increase the dose. This is one of the best mare hormonal supplements we’ve used. What we really like too, is that all the ingredients have undergone research and testing, unlike a lot of products on the market. We find buying the product from Jalex Products cheaper than going direct to Sceience Supplements too but we do find that Jalex’s delivery is rather hit and miss. Some deliveries are within days…. other times we have to chase and it can be up to 10 days. If you buy direct, delivery is always next day.
What is it?
HormonAid is designed to work alongside the natural cycle of the mare, helping to relieve tension and support a more amenable demeanour.
Spring and summer can be testing times for the ridden mare. Oestrus cycles cause sudden, dramatic changes in hormone levels resulting in irritable and irrational behaviour.
HormonAid supports the transition through the oestrus cycle and encourages a relaxed mood.
What’s in it?
HormonAid is a unique combination of Vitex Agnus Castus, Lemon Balm, Green Tea and Passion Flower, alongside Vitamins B1, B6, D3 and Magnesium to promote a good mental attitude and ease muscle cramps and tenderness.
Vitex Agnus Castus supports hormone production, helping to ease transitions through the oestrus cycle.
Lemon Balm is a herb we use for its calming effects. Lemon Balm is used in combination with other herbs and amino acids has shown its diverse effectiveness at relieving anxiety and nervousness.
Green Tea contains L-Theanine which is an amino acid that helps with relaxation without drowsiness. We used L-Theanine in combination with other amino acids and herbs.
Passion Flower is used for its ability to improve relaxation.. The effect from passion flower on its own can sometimes be variable, which is why we use it in combination with other herbs and amino acids for a more reliable effect.
Vitamins B1, B6 and D3 are required through the oestrus cycle.
Magnesium helps to ease hormone associated muscle cramps and/or tenderness which may cause mares to feel uncomfortable under saddle at certain times in their cycle.
