Description
An off-white, speckled, free flowing powder with a slight apple scent. Each 30 gm contains: St John's wort (6:1 concentrate) 1.23 g, Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) 4.18g, Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) 0.41 g and Magnesium (as Magnesium oxide) 7.65g.

Mode of Action
St John's Wort (hypericum perforatum) is reported to be useful in managing symptoms such as anxiousness and stress caused by dietary deficiencies.

Vitamin B1 (Thiamine hydrochloride) is well known for promoting the normal workings of the nervous system, muscles and brain.

Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) is needed in the diet for the normal orderly functioning of the nervous system. Magnesium is a mineral needed by every cell in the body and has a particularly important role in the maintainance of normal muscle and nerve function. Low blood magnesium or hypomagnesaemia will produce the nervous symptoms of grass staggers.

Withholding Period
Do not use for 7 days prior to Racing or Competition
