Overview
Stress is a serious business. An ongoing stressed state is very often the underlying reason behind the root of chronic disease. The science is conclusive; unmanaged stress is the first domino that falls, creating a chain reaction of internal complications that can lead to serious health conditions.

Is StressTonic Right for Your Horse?
🌿 Ideal for horses who...
- Are showing signs of ongoing or chronic stress - long-term tension, even in familiar environments.
- Are struggling to switch off the fight/flight mode and need help restoring equilibrium.
- Display adrenal fatigue symptoms such as dullness, reactivity, or unpredictable mood swings.
- Are prone to stress-linked issues such as ulcers, tight muscles, or poor digestion.
- Are in rehab, box rest, or restricted turnout and need emotional steadiness during recovery.
⚠️ Not suitable for horses who...
- Only need short-term calm for specific stress events (e.g. competitions, travel, clipping) - use CalmTonic instead.
- Are on corticosteroid medications such as prednisolone , dexamethasone , or steroid inhalers (due to Glycyrrhiza glabra's (Liquorice) potentiating effect).
- Are already receiving another adaptogenic or adrenal formula without professional guidance.
