A chelated calcium horse calmer, for focus and concentration without sedation.

The key active ingredient in Cool, Calm & Collected is chelated calcium which supports normal neurotransmission*, this aids better risk analysis and decision making. This product also contains Tyrosine, an amino acid that serves several important purposes in the body including the creation of dopamine. Tyrosine only has a relatively short term effect and is only valuable if the horse risks becoming tyrosine deficient due to stress. See below for information about tyrosine and horses with EMS, IR or PSSM.

Cool, Calm & Collected behavioural supplement helps with:

Spookiness
Anxiety
Overreacting
The Cool, Calm & Collected Starter Pack is magnesium free as standard. If your horse has not used one of our products containing chelated calcium before, or hasn’t had chelated calcium for over two weeks, a Starter Pack is required.

Magnesium FREE calmers work best when the rest of the diet has no artificial magnesium added to it.

We have loads of other magnesium and chelated calcium resources in our articles section.

We thrive on customer feedback (good or bad) and in the first year of adding tyrosine to CCC we have five negative responses (in UK and USA combined). So these are a tiny number of cases. However the commonality is that they all have either EMS or IR or PSSM. We will be doing our best to find out more about this (none of our competitors seem to have highlighted an issue and there is no equine literature to guide us but there are hints that tyrosine and diabetic humans don't go together that well. That is enough for us to make available a tyrosine free version of CCC (select from the drop down box on ordering. Our product specifically for EMS and Cushings horses (LAM Essentials) has always been tyrosine free.

How to use CCC

If your horse has not used one of our products containing chelated calcium before, or hasn’t had chelated calcium for over two weeks, a Starter Pack is required. Only feed 5 days a week. The 4 lb pack option will last a 1,200lb horse about 5 weeks, use the whole 4 lb pack to load the horse on CCC. Once loaded the 4 lb Follow On bag should last the same horse about 14 weeks.

Implications of too much magnesium

Most modern diets contain plenty of magnesium for horses and many contain far too much artificial magnesium sources. Too much magnesium blocks nerve function and can prevent CCC® from working properly. The Cool, Calm & Collected Starter Pack is magnesium free.  Email one of our advisors with details of your horse and its diet and we will conduct a free diet review and help you find out what level of artificially added magnesium is in your current diet. We will also help you find what suits your horse best. This is a FREE service. CLICK HERE

Other causes of bad behaviour

Behavior is complex. CCC is ensuring the brain has two key nutrients but it doesn't sedate and it won't overcome behavior issues caused by pain (ulcers, poor saddle fit, back problems etc etc). We are happy to help with some of these issues (if you talk to us) but clearly others are outside our control.

    Changed my horse drastically!

    Posted by Holly Nicolson on Aug 7th 2018

    I was having real problems with my 12 year old TB gelding. He would be fine at home in full work - almost verging on lazy - and then whenever he travelled to somewhere new he would completely change. Then I bought this supplement after some great advice and it changed him so much. I am still to test his reaction out at a competition but I feel so much more confident with him and don't know why I didn't buy it earlier. Very highly recommended!!!

    I can ride again!

    Posted by Cheryl on Oct 17th 2017

    The spinning/bolting and looking for goblins really took a toll on my nerves and I lost a lot of confidence. it didn't matter how much exposure he had to the same "object, sound, movement" he would explode in a very consistent predictable way. This was out in the field too, not just under saddle. I had no idea how to re-home a horse like this. I didn't even know his real personality as he was perfectly fine for the first three weeks I had him and then lost his marbles. (suspected mineral imbalance due to the pasture)I haven't even finished the loading dose and it's been HUGE change, not subtle at all. I am back in the saddle and feeling like we can actually make it work now. I will have to come back and follow up this review in 6 months, but so far I will not be going without it.

    My boy is back!!

    Posted by Paula on Oct 4th 2017

    my 22yr old has gone from a spooky, rearing, bucking bombscare to being the most wonderful chilled lad! Still looking but doesn't panic and doesn't react nearly as badly! Has settled him down without dulling his sparkle or taking the fun out of him....I just don't fear for my life as much now! X
