Vitalstyle Calm & Steady

High-fibre, grain-free muesli for stress-sensitive horses

Vitalstyle Calm & Steady is a high-fibre muesli for horses that are naturally sensitive to stress, nervous or temperamental. This tasty muesli supports mental balance, concentration and performance without affecting alertness.

Calm & Steady contains all the essential vitamins and minerals your horse needs daily, supplemented with extra B vitamins and magnesium. The grain-free formula is rich in easily digestible fibres and fats from ingredients including timothy grass, linseed and linseed oil.
