BORON AAC 10%
Nutritional support for horses with trigeminal-mediated headshaking
Boron is a trace mineral that has attracted interest in equine nutrition, particularly when used in conjunction with magnesium for horses affected by trigeminal-mediated headshaking.
A small controlled study involving six affected horses investigated magnesium and boron supplementation and reported an approximately 64% reduction in headshaking frequency during the magnesium + boron treatment period compared with the hay-only period.
While these findings are promising, boron and magnesium are not a cure for headshaking, and trigeminal-mediated headshaking should always be properly investigated and diagnosed by a veterinarian.
AHFS DAILY FEEDING GUIDE
For use in conjunction with Magnesium Oxide 50%:
| Horse Weight | Boron AAC 10% | Magnesium Oxide 50% |
|---|---|---|
| 300 kg | 6 g | 9 g |
| 350 kg | 7 g | 10.5 g |
| 400 kg | 8 g | 12 g |
| 450 kg | 9 g | 13.5 g |
| 500 kg | 10 g | 15 g |
| 550 kg | 11 g | 16.5 g |
| 600 kg | 12 g | 18 g |
Easy feeding calculation:
• Boron AAC 10%: 2 g per 100 kg bodyweight daily
• Magnesium Oxide 50%: 3 g per 100 kg bodyweight daily
For a 500 kg horse, feed 10 g Boron AAC 10% + 15 g Magnesium Oxide 50% daily.
At this dosage, 1 kg of Boron AAC 10% will last approximately 100 days for a 500 kg horse.
Important: Trigeminal-mediated headshaking can have several potential causes. Veterinary investigation and diagnosis are recommended before supplementation. This product is intended as nutritional support and is not intended to diagnose, treat or cure disease.
I’ve deliberately made this less sales-heavy than the Facebook version so it reads more professionally on a product page and keeps the medical claims appropriately cautious.
