Intended for anxious horses, those stuck in fight or flight mode, horses who need help transitioning from high stress situations, or horses with weakened immune systems. Adapt. can help reduce high cortisol levels, nourish the adrenals, calm the nervous system, increase circulation & promote overall wellbeing.

Managing the physiological response to stress can help one become comfortable in their own skin again & less reactive to stressful situations.

”Adapt. has definitely improved Cosmo's grumpy attitude, and he seems much happier about being touched and brushed!”
-Sarah B. (re: anxiety)
"Our OTTB mare has sleep crashed regularly for the past decade, that we’re aware of. She would refuse to let her guard down to lay down and get REM sleep at night (we have cameras on her). As a result, her exhaustion would catch up with her, and she would sleep crash several times a day during her stand-up naps (her knees failed to lock & she had permanent scabs on her fetlocks from catching herself). However, since putting her on Adapt. blend, she finally lays down to rest each day and is no longer sleep crashing!!! This is such a big deal to us as her sleep crashing has even given her a traumatic leg injury before, when she fell onto ice in winter. Knowing her body isn't running on fumes anymore, and finally seeing her lay down to rest, is everything to us!"
-The Wilga’s & Megan P. (previous owner). (re: sleep crashing)
”THIS STUFF WORKS AMAZING! Here are the biggest things I noticed when my horses weren’t on Adapt... weird hairs growing in random places instead of a nice, even winter coats and trouble gaining / keeping weight on. Now that they’re on Adapt. + Chaste Tree Berry, they have beautiful winter coats coming in evenly, and they're gaining back lost weight and muscle!”
