Liquid Lunge™ Pre-Performance Calming Paste

L-Tryptophan is a vital calming supplement and a natural
precursor to serotonin—the neurotransmitter that helps regulate mood, behavior, and emotional stability. As an important building block for serotonin production in the brain, L-Tryptophan supports emotional balance by promoting healthy serotonin levels.

Key Benefits of L-Tryptophan:

• Helps ease anxiety and nervousness
• Enhances mental focus
• Promotes a calm, relaxed state—without causing sedation

L-Tryptophan is an essential amino acid, meaning the body cannot produce it and must obtain it through diet or supplementation. It is especially effective when paired with other natural calming agents like Magnesium Glycinate and B vitamins.

Magnesium Glycinate is a trusted calming supplement for horses, known for its gentle yet effective support of the nervous system. Its unique formulation makes it highly absorbable and well-tolerated, even by horses with sensitive digestive systems - unlike Magnesium Citrate, Oxide or Sulfate.

Magnesium is essential for maintaining healthy nerve and muscle function. When levels are low, horses may show signs of nervousness, tension, muscle twitching, or difficulty focusing. Supplementing with magnesium helps regulate nerve signals and encourages calm, balanced behavior.

What makes Magnesium Glycinate stand out is its chelated form—magnesium bound to the amino acid glycine—which enhances both absorption and effectiveness. Glycine also has calming properties of its own, further supporting emotional stability.

Key Benefits of Magnesium Glycinate:

• Supports healthy nerve and muscle function
• Promotes calm, focused behavior without sedation
• Highly bioavailable and easy to absorb
• Gentle on the digestive system—ideal for horses with sensitive stomachs or gastric ulcers
• Includes glycine for added soothing effect

Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) is a vital nutrient that plays multiple roles in equine health, particularly in calming support, energy
metabolism, and neuromuscular function. It’s especially beneficial for horses experiencing high-stress situations—such as travel, training, or shows—or for those that are naturally nervous or excitable.

Key Benefits of Vitamin B1:

• Supports healthy nervous system function and helps calm, anxious, or tense horses
• Aids in the conversion of carbohydrates into usable energy, especially important for horses on high-grain diets
• Promotes proper nerve-to-muscle communication, supporting coordination and muscle strength
• Non-sedating and well-tolerated, making it ideal for performance horses

Thiamine is a reliable and gentle option to help maintain focus, relaxation, and overall well-being.

Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) plays a supportive but important role in maintaining a healthy nervous system and sustaining energy levels in horses. While not a primary calming agent, it helps optimize the effects of
other key nutrients in the formula.

Key Benefits of Vitamin B2:

• Supports the production of neurotransmitters like serotonin, enhancing mood balance
• Aids mitochondrial function, helping boost physical and mental endurance
• Works synergistically with ingredients like L-Tryptophan and Magnesium for a more effective calming response

A valuable co-factor that helps keep your horse focused, balanced, and performing at its best.

Vitamin B3 (Niacin) is a supportive nutrient in the calming blend, contributing to both mental clarity and physical performance. While not a primary calming agent, it plays a key role in helping horses respond more calmly and effectively to stress.

Key Benefits of Vitamin B3:

• Supports neurotransmitter balance and nerve cell health, influencing stress response
• Promotes healthy circulation and blood flow, enhancing oxygen delivery to the brain and muscles
• Aids in serotonin production, working alongside Vitamin B and L-Tryptophan for a more balanced mood

A quiet contributor that helps sharpen focus, maintain composure, and support overall nervous system function.

Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) also plays a key supportive role in calming horses, especially when combined with nutrients like Magnesium and Thiamine. It contributes to a well-balanced nervous system and helps regulate mood, making it an important part of any natural calming formula.

Key Benefits of Vitamin B6:

• Supports the production of neurotransmitters like serotonin and GABA, which help regulate stress and anxiety
• Aids in muscle and nerve function by supporting the formation of myelin, the protective sheath around nerves
• Enhances the calming effects of other nutrients such as magnesium and thiamine through synergistic action

A vital co-factor that helps reduce excitability and promote emotional stability—without sedation.

Vitamin B8 (Inositol) is a naturally occurring compound that supports nervous system health and emotional balance. It plays a key role in neurotransmitter activity and is particularly helpful for horses prone to
stress, tension, or overstimulation.

Key Benefits of Vitamin B8:

• Promotes calmness by supporting serotonin, dopamine, and GABA activity
• Aids in proper nerve signaling, helping reduce nervousness and enhance focus
• Supports brain function for improved mental clarity, responsiveness, and performance
• Helps regulate stress responses, making it ideal for high-strung or anxious horses

A gentle yet effective addition to any equine calming formula—especially under high-pressure conditions like travel or training.
