Theanine

On the Fox Den Equine website I noticed that they had a calming product called Equanimity which contains Theanine. What have you heard about using Theanine on horses? Is it safe, effective, or legal on the horse show circuit?

Re: Theanine

Hello Andrea,

I have not personally used it but I have heard good things about it. It is safe to use and legal at horse shows.

All the best,
