CALM GOLD

CALM GOLD was developed to suppress unpleasant or even dangerous stress reactions in horses.
For example during new situations, hacking out, trailer loading or competitions, without reducing the desired alertness, responsiveness or performance level of the horse.

Only ingredients that are scientifically substantiated and that deliver visible results in practice were selected for CALM GOLD.

1. Magnesium (as magnesium sulfate.7aq)

The beneficial effects of magnesium on stress reactions have been extensively demonstrated, but absorption strongly depends on the compound.

• Magnesium sulfate.7aq is highly soluble and well bioavailable, in contrast to, for example, magnesium oxide or magnesium hydroxide.

• Because the body does not store magnesium, it must be supplemented daily and regularly, distributed throughout the day.

• Specific prebiotics in CALM GOLD increase magnesium absorption by 67%.

2) L-Tryptophan

A precursor of serotonin, essential for regulating aggression, anxiety and stress.
Effective only at the correct dosage.

3) L-Theanine

Known from green tea.
Promotes serotonin and dopamine levels, induces calmness and relaxation without sedation.
Blocks the binding of L-glutamic acid to glutamate receptors, thereby reducing stress reactions.

Studies show:

• increased alpha waves (relaxation)

• reduced beta waves (stress)

4) B vitamins (B1, B6, B9)

Contribute to reducing stress sensitivity and support the nervous system.

5) Ashwagandha

A traditional herb with nearly 3,000 years of use.
Studies in humans and more recently also in horses show improved stress resistance and increased interest in new situations.

6) Hops (Humulus lupulus)

Contains bitter acids (alpha and beta) with demonstrated stress-reducing properties.
Acts via GABA receptors and serotonin production.

7) Bacopa monnieri

A tropical plant that has shown clear anti-stress properties in studies in humans and animals.

8) GoldBiotics®

Supports a healthy gut microbiota, which is essential in the gut–brain axis.
A balanced microbiome supports stress resilience and simultaneously enhances magnesium absorption.

More information on pre- and probiotics can be found here.

👉 This broad combination provides a scientifically substantiated, natural approach to stress reactions.

Packaging: 1 litre

Standard dosage: 60 ml per day

• Preferably divided into two administrations per day

• Can also be administered 2 to 3 hours before a stressful event

⚠️ Doping-free

⚠️ Store at room temperature (not too cold)

⚠️ Shake well before use

Research clearly shows that improving the gut microbiota can significantly reduce stress situations.

The microbiome communicates with the brain via neural, neuro-endocrine and immunological signals.

Gut bacteria such as Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium and Escherichia coli produce neurotransmitters (serotonin, dopamine, acetylcholine) that directly stimulate the nervous system.

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), produced through fermentation in the gut, have immunomodulatory effects, interact directly with the nervous system and can even cross the blood–brain barrier to influence behaviour.

GOLDMEDICS developed GOLDBIOTICS® ICU EQUINE, which increases the production of beneficial SCFAs in the gut microbiota by more than 60%.

👉 The combination CALM GOLD + GOLDBIOTICS® ICU EQUINE is therefore strongly recommended.
