Quiet Life Calmer™
The Horse Calmer That Works
With over fifteen years of research into nervous horses, we formulated Quiet Life Calmer to help your horse relax, stay calm and focus when faced with situations they would typically find stressful or distracting.
Quiet Life Calmer Is Used For
- Horses that nap when they feel unsure what is ahead.
- Horses that lack concentration and focus.
- Horses that are dangerous to lead.
Why Quiet Life Calmer?
Quiet Life Calmer is L-Tryptophan based, not Magnesium based. Many horse calmers are crammed full of Magnesium because it is a cheap ingredient and weighs a lot, meaning they can sell the product in large quantities at a low price. Magnesium-based calmers look great at a glance for a bargain hunter. But not so great as an effective horse calmer.
Quiet Life Calmer is a daily use supplement: While researching existing horse calming products, we noticed that all the calmers sold at veterinarian practices are daily-use and powder-based, as opposed to cookies or shots; this is because the ingredients used in professional horse calmers are more effective when taken daily.
Unique Formula: Thanks to our small range of horse supplements and excellent customer feedback, we are in a prime situation to produce the best horse calmer possible.

Ingredients
Quiet Life Calmer™ contains a proprietary blend of the following ingredients, formulated at the perfect ratio for effective calming in any horse.
L-Tryptophan
L-Tryptophan is the key ingredient in our calmer, an amino acid used by the body to make Serotonin, the chemical messenger known to reduce anxiety and stabilise mood.
Chelated Magnesium
Magnesium levels can change with the seasons, depending on the feed and quality of grass. Some horses are naturally deficient in Magnesium through poor intake of nutrients. Additionally, horses can have decreased Magnesium levels through excursion (stress from travelling, competing or strenuous work).
Horses with a magnesium deficiency are likely to have a poor tolerance to exercise, are quick to fatigue, display nervousness, and suffer a build of lactic acid leading to behavioural issues and muscle cramping.
Quiet Life Calmer uses a small amount of chelated Magnesium for better absorption.
Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a multi-functional ingredient which contains naturally occurring B vitamins. One of these is Thiamine, a B1 vitamin that corrects nerve impulses helping to calm highly strung horses and reducing flight risk.
Calcium Carbonate
Calcium carbonate is used in Quiet Life Calmer for its antacid properties, helping to soothe any pre-existing gastric issues that often cause pain to a horse when ridden.
If your horse has no history of gastric issues, do not worry, the calcium carbonate in Quiet Life Calmer helps reduce the chance of gastric ulcers.

Directions
Starting Quiet Life Calmer: When introducing your horse to any new supplement, it is always advised to begin with a small amount and then slowly increase the dosage until the desired effect is reached, this gives your horse a chance to adjust gently to the changes in its diet.
What To Expect When Starting: When starting Quiet Life Calmer with the low dosage, you may not notice a significant change on day one. By days four to six, with the gentle increase in dosage, you should find your horse is less jumpy, listens to you and seems more relaxed.
Introducing Quiet Life Calmer to your horse: Begin with 5ml to 10ml daily. Split this amount evenly in the horse's morning and evening feed. You can add this to the feed dry or with water.
An example of this for a mid to large-size horse would be to start with 10ml per day, adding 5ml in the morning and 5ml in the evening feed for the first 2 to 3 days. Then, increase the dosage in small increments until the desired effect is achieved.
Guidelines
Below we have listed guidelines for dosage based on the horse's weight. These guidelines are based on when the calmer effects should be seen.
100kg ~ 200kg: Around 20ml spread over the day: (10ml in the morning and 10ml in the evening feed).
200kg ~ 350kg: Around 30ml spread over the day: (15ml in the morning and 15ml in the evening feed).
350kg ~ 550kg: Around 50ml spread over the day: (25ml in the morning and 25ml in the evening feed).
550kg ~ 700kg: Around 70ml spread over the day: (35ml in the morning and 35ml in the evening feed).
700kg and larger: Up to 90ml spread over the day: (45ml in the morning and 45ml in the evening feed).
Adjusting The Dosage
Quiet Life Calmer is a very safe horse calmer to use, and the guidelines above are written very conservatively based on when the effect should be seen, not necessarily the maximum amount you can feed your horse.
Ideally, you want to use as little as possible to achieve the desired effect. This way, you use less calmer and have a little wiggle room for those extra stressful times in your horse's year.
That being said, we have a lot of users, especially with mid to larger-size horses who safely use more than the guideline amounts for their horse's weight. If you go slightly above the guidelines, always do so in small increments and take note of your horse's health. Remember, you're horse's stool should remain the same as it always has when taking this or any other feed supplement.

I’ve tried so many calmers in the past for my sometimes stressy, nervous mare. This by far is the best one I have ever given her and been on it years now. I like the idea there are no bulking agents just pure ingredients and you can increase/decrease the dose as and when required.
Helps to calm our 9 year old.
I bought this calmer last year when my horse was still settling in to a new yard and new ownership with me and it worked, however I never realised how much it worked! He’s now back on it as he’s become an absolute nightmare with summer turnout. I was going to wait a few more days before writing a review but the instant results speak for themselves! I’ve gone from hating going to the yard to deal with him as it was so so stressful and contemplated giving up/selling him to having my lovely chilled boy back! I would recommend this calmer to anyone having an issue as if it can work wonders on my boy with how horrible he was it can work on anything! Will 100% be back for a subscription when I get low!
This calmer always amazes me! Only calmer to ever work on my boy. Delivery is so fast, super thankful!
Really works, better then any other product I have tried
