Take It Easy Forte

Helps to relieve stress quickly so that your horse is calmer and more focused in competition

Naturally effective: the synergistic effects of essential oils.

Supports the respiratory and circulatory systems for optimum stress relief

Cavalor Take It Easy Forte, a quick-acting, extra-strong calming supplement in paste form. Cavalor Take It Easy Forte reduces the influence of stress factors while helping concentration.

Take It Easy Forte in paste form is ideal for use ahead of stressful situations like competition and transport.

Stress stimulates the hypothalamus, the part of the brain that regulates balance in the body, emotions, and needs such as hunger and thirst.

The hypothalamus sends signals to the adrenal glands through the spinal cord and the nervous system. The adrenal glands (medulla and cortex) produce large amounts of adrenaline, noradrenaline, and cortisol. Adrenaline makes the body alert and able to react quickly.

Cortisol keeps your horse alert for a longer period of time. Like adrenaline, cortisol increases the heart rate, pumping oxygen through the body. Cortisol also increases blood sugar, resulting in more energy for a longer period. Healthy tension ensures that your horse can continue to perform under pressure. After competition (or intensive training), tension is released and adrenaline and cortisol drop back to normal levels.

When a horse experiences prolonged stress, the amount of cortisol in the body remains too high. Cortisol raises blood sugar levels – prolonged stress also leads to too much glucose in the body.

Long-term stress will cause your horse to have health issues over time.

Horses that are anxious or stressed are not themselves. Cavalor Take It Easy Forte provides help for occasional stress. It contains calming essential oils and supports general well-being by aiding breathing and circulation.

Like Cavalor Take It Easy, Cavalor Take It Easy Forte also contains a high dose of L-tryptophan, which, in combination with vitamin B1, can be absorbed quickly and efficiently by the body. Tryptophan stimulates the production of serotonin, a substance that is naturally present in the body and which acts as a natural defence against stress. Vitamin B1 assists in impulse transfer to the nerves, supports the adrenal glands, and brings calming effects.

Cavalor Take it Easy also contains magnesium, which helps to relax muscles. Cavalor Take It Easy Forte also contains an additional blend of essential oils. Each of these works in its own way to address the effects of stress (breathing, circulation, anxiety, etc.).

Every horse deals with stress differently. This blend of different oils creates a stress-reducing formula that’s effective with different horses and in different situations. Cavalor Take It Easy Forte contains the following essential oils: Humulus Lupulus, Citrus Reticulata blanco, Cananga odorata, Juniperus mexicana, and Vetiveria zizanoides.

What our fans think about our products:

No more problems or sweet itch

After trying different feeds, I’ve finally found the right one for my Shetland mare, Annie. I was really worried about her last year, but after changing her management (grazing muzzle and a handful of Fiberforce per day), she’s like a completely different pony!

Delicious products

Cavalor Mash & Mix is my horse’s favourite! I really like it too, because it can be fed wet and dry. It’s ideal for giving a quick warm feed after work.

Jannet Haakman

The solution for sensitive guts

I’d like to congratulate you on your Fiberforce feed. My horse was very ill and had lost a lot of weight. He’s also very prone to stomach ulcers, so I was looking for an easily digestible feed. I’ve been feeding my horse Cavalor Fiberforce for about a month now and it’s really helped him!

Mieke

The long mane is back

My horse was really itchy and had rubbed away most of his mane. Since I’ve been using Cavalor SwItch - you can see the beautiful, long mane for yourselves. A fantastic product!

Jana Verschoren

A satisfying meal

I love Cavalor Silhouette because it allowed my chunky horse to eat more than a handful of pellets, maintain muscle, and still get the required nutrients at a low feeding rate. I chose it for my OTTB to give him a different and more natural feed.

Sarah McClaflin

Opening the feed is a treat!

Strucomix Senior is so palatable and smells so good I want to eat it! It is a treat just to open the bags in the feed room.

Leslie Terry

A mane to be proud of!

My Friesian's mane is 160 cm long. I care for it with Star Shine to let my superstar shine at every competition, where I always hear lots of “oh’s” and “wow’s” from the spectators.

Ria Hermans

A massive difference

My mare is a Haflinger-Belgian Warmblood cross and she’s really wild, both to handle and to ride. She’s also half cold blood, so it’s really important that she doesn’t get too much protein. After trying out countless feeds from other brands, I decided on Pianissimo - and it really made a difference.

Dazzling white

If you have a grey horse, you need to spend the whole day before a competition washing him to make sure that he is as clean as possible! I’ve tried everything on him. Somebody gave me the perfect tip. Cavalor Bianco Wash! It seems expensive to buy but you only need a small amount so it lasts forever! And it really works!

Esther Breman

A healthy GI system

We feed a lot of Fiberforce as I have lots of ponies and warmbloods all of which travel and compete - the Fiberforce ensures a healthy GI system without added sugars so I can safely feed it to my tiniest ponies and oldest members of the herd.

They look and feel their best

The horses need proper nutrition to build muscle and look and feel their best. Strucomix Senior is palatable for my older horses and the Fiberforce is great for my easy keepers. It keeps them trim but provides them with all their nutritional requirements!

Lauren Hill

It’s a great feed

Cavalor Tradition Apple really is a brilliant feed! My pony is always good and waits until I give her some. She is generally greedy and she especially likes the apple pieces. The feed has improved her appearance and her coat has a wonderful shine.

Suzanne Willemsen

The best a horse can get.

My horse often suffers from thrush in the winter months. I bought Cavalor Dry Feet on recommendation and I could see a result after just one day. It works really well. Highly recommended! Cavalor Dry Feet is highly recommended if your horse often has soggy hooves!

Youtha Eysackers

Highly recommended!

Cavalor NutriPlus is the perfect vitamin mix. My two horses and two ponies only get roughage and this vitamin mix. They like the fruity smell and taste and always lick their bowls clean. It’s highly beneficial for the horses and for the owners that these vitamins can be fed in pellet form.
