☀️SAVE 20% IN OUR APRIL 'METABOLIC MUST-HAVES' SALE!☀️
Pure support for hooves, metabolism, and nervous system health, EquiNatural’s Magnesium Oxide is pharmaceutical-grade, high-purity (98–100.5%) with 60.6% elemental magnesium content.
Ideal for metabolic support, hoof health, and forage balancing, it’s a must-have for horses needing extra magnesium in their diet.
~ Targets metabolic health
Essential for insulin function, reducing the risks of insulin resistance and laminitis.
~ Supports high-sugar diets
Magnesium is vital for processing carbohydrates, with 56 molecules required per sugar molecule metabolized.
~ Visible Results
Horses with cresty necks, fat deposits, or poor hoof quality often show improvement within weeks.

🌿 Nervous system support
Helps maintain a calm and balanced central nervous system.
🌿 Bone and teeth formation
Contributes to healthy skeletal development.
🌿 Low iron, high purity
Heavy metals, including iron, capped at max 20ppm.
Overview
Beneficial for:
- Healthy hooves / laminae.
- Magnesium plays a significant role in metabolising carbohydrates (sugars and starches) in horses and the broader implications for their metabolic health. Human studies indicate that a large quantity of magnesium, 56 molecules for each molecule of sugar, is necessary for this process, suggesting that horses consuming high-sugar or high-starch diets may require substantial magnesium to effectively process these foods.
- Magnesium is crucial for proper insulin function and glucose uptake into cells, with a deficiency potentially leading to issues such as insulin resistance, laminitis, and poor hoof quality.
Observations show that horses with signs of insulin resistance, such as a cresty neck and localised fat deposits, show positive responses to magnesium supplements within weeks, with improvements in hoof structure and function following within months. - Formation of teeth and bones
- Healthy central nervous system maintenance.
- Metabolic health.
- Forage mineral balancing.
Total heavy metals including iron: Max 20ppm.
Composition & Feed Guide
Composition
100% pure Magnesium Oxide powder (Heavy)
- 98.0% - 100.5% purity, providing 60.6% elemental magnesium content.
Feed
3.3g (2g elemental magnesium) per 100kg bodyweight per day. Thus, for a 500kg horse add 16.5g magnesium oxide daily to feed.
- 1-level 15ml scoop = 10g/16.6g elemental magnesium.
- Human grade.
