ADRENAVIVE 🍂OCTOBER 20%-OFF SALE *Stress-resetting, energy-renewing, and focus-restoring
Designed as a follow-on formula to StressTonic or OptimaCARE, AdrenaVIVE supports post-stress recovery by nourishing adrenal function, rebuilding emotional equilibrium, and restoring mental clarity.
This adaptogenic, mineral-rich blend helps the body shift from survival mode to thrive mode - recharging focus, energy, and inner calm while supporting the adrenal and nervous systems through their natural recovery rhythm.
Ideal for horses emerging from chronic stress, trauma, burnout, or extended rehabilitation, AdrenaVIVE combines time-honoured adrenal-tonic and adaptogenic herbs to gently modulate the stress response and help balance the HPA axis.
✨ "Our new ex-racer was totally shut down, and after speaking with EquiNatural we were invited to trial the Adrenavive following a stress programme. It’s like his spark came back. We're definitely keeping him on it for now." Jodie W.
Overview
When a horse has been living in a long-term chronic stress state - mentally, emotionally, or physically - it’s not enough to simply remove the stressor.
In human health studies, it's well understood that after someone has experienced deep trauma, chronic anxiety, or sustained stress, they remain susceptible to future imbalance.
The same applies to horses: the nervous system can remain on high alert, adrenal function depleted, and behaviour dulled or unpredictable. In human care, we lean on calming protocols - both conventional and herbal - to rebalance the gut-brain pathway.
For horses? That’s where AdrenaVIVE comes in. Designed as a follow-on formula to StressTonic or OptimaCARE, AdrenaVIVE supports the adrenal glands and central nervous system during the crucial recovery phase. While StressTonic helps calm the storm by interrupting the fight-flight cascade and 'normalising' the stress response,, AdrenaVIVE works in the quieter aftermath - helping your horse rebuild emotional balance, resilience, and focus.
Whether your horse has come through trauma, illness, burnout, or a demanding rehab period, AdrenaVIVE offers long-term calm from the inside out. It’s especially valuable post-reset, where the body has been systemically supported, but adrenal health still needs time to recalibrate.
Think of it as nervous system nourishment - helping your horse shift from survival mode to thrive mode.
