STRESS
REDUCERS

 Product: Zen Equine
Calming Pastes
 Description: Because
horses have different biological
responses to stress, Zen pastes
come in two formulas. Zen-X is
for horses who exhibit behaviors
such as stall walking, weaving
and overreactions to stimuli.
Ingredients include red reishi

mushroom, medical-grade aloe,
casein protein and aminoacid
chelated magnesium. The other
formula, In-Zen is for horses
who respond to stress by
becoming withdrawn or fearful.
In addition to red reishi
mushroom and medical-
grade aloe, the In Zen formula
includes Indian ginseng.
 Price: suggested
retail, $12.50
