One of its major roles is as a co-factor in the enzymes involved in nerve and neuro-muscular transmission helping to regulate nerve to nerve and nerve to muscle transmission and communication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA lack of magnesium can result in nerve and neuro-muscular excitability, resulting in a tense, nervous horse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStressful situations such as strenuous activity and competition, travelling, prolonged stabling and lack of grazing, or new environments may further increase magnesium requirements as stress levels rise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMagnitude provides supplemental magnesium, together with controlled amounts of calcium (another key mineral in nerve and muscle metabolism), to help promote healthy nerve function and reduce tension, enabling the horse to focus and concentrate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the benefits of Magnitude?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eMagnitude provides magnesium from Magnesium Oxide, which is produced from calcined magnesite, extracted from natural deposits in the earth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe Magnesium Oxide used in Magnitude typically contains 51-54% elemental magnesium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eNatural source of magnesium to supplement low or marginal levels in forage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eA very small daily serving of 5g provides 2.44g elemental magnesium, easily mixed in feed for fussy feeders.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSafe use with most typical fortified performance and leisure feeds and forage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eColour Change\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*Slight colour change - but the same great product, now with even more quality assurance!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe are pleased to confirm that there is no difference in the magnesium levels, or the chemical source of the magnesium used (magnesium oxide - MgO), only in the physical form of MgO we are now using.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis change in physical form (to the slightly more granular form, with a pale beige colour) has arisen because we are delighted to report that we are now manufacturing Equine America (UK) products in the UK, using certified facilities with the highest standards of safety and production. Although Equine America (UK) products have always been free from prohibited substances, our new UFAS and BETA NOPS certifications will provide further reassurance in the light of recent high profile prohibited substances cases, giving our customers peace of mind regarding FEI, BEF and BHA prohibited substances, enabling full traceability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn order to comply with the rules and regulations regarding these certifications, we are only able to use certain suppliers, who are also certified, and have had to make a change to our supply of magnesium oxide, so we are now using the lower dust, slightly granular form, which is pale beige.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDirections for Use\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDirections for feeding: For 500 kg horse; 5g per day.
