What do you all use, like, and recommend? I've heard decent things on Equi Sure, so I'm thinking about that but want to see what you all recommend!

Kool Blue or Mega does for stress

my friend used to put apple sauce in her horses grain when she traveled otherwise her horse wouldn't eat it. and she ate apple sauce like it was going out of style... so it was kind of a win/win.

Animal Element has In the Zone paste which is great for hauling. It keeps them eating and drinking on the road and relaxed. It is a great electrolyte and has raspberry leaf to keep them relaxed and does not affect their run at all. For every day calming you can use straight raspberry leaf - 1 scoop two times a day.

Formula 1 Noni is great for helping your horse adapt and deal with stress. Plus, it's reasonably priced.

I like the equisure for on the weekends. I also just started our horses on a product the MVP makes. We love all of their joint supplements and have used them for years. Gastro-Plex also has a money back guarantee!! Message me and I can tell you how to get a promotional offer!

 I give 4 calming cookies an hour out and they walk right in the trailer. I always keep GastroPLUS on hand. Great for ulcers, gas and digestion.

Formula 1 Noni has been a great added supplement to our program. We feed it to our horses and our bucking bulls. Keeps them happy, eating and drinking while on the road.

Do you use the blue or gold label? I've been using the blue label, but I'm seeing more improvement in handling stress and recovering quickly than I am joints. Just curious if the extra cost of the blue is worth it to get the HA.

I haven't tried it for hauling, but sure have a lot of people that swear by it. I use it for appetite here at home and usually when the appetite is not there, it's because they do have some ulcer issues.

I was just going to suggest In The Zone!

Great product - not only does it help with appetite and stress, it also helps them focus. I've noticed a huge difference in my mare when I use it versus when I don't. She doesn't like it when I bring it out and have to give it to her, but she gets over it quickly.

My one gelding would stress internally and without it he would go off of his feed and the first day of the barrel race he would go right in...the second day he would sping around and by the third day he said No Way Jose. The THE GastroPlus kept him eating and ended any alley issues.

My second gelding loves his job and will run someone over to get in the alley but would go off of his feed by day 2. THE kept him on his feed.

I also swear by EquiShure. I started using it earlier this year when a horse I purchased had random out of control, self-destructive behavior (kicking, bucking, biting) in his pen. The previous owner told me he just liked to "play" but it didn't seem right. I had some ulcer cure otc on hand and that helped but only slightly reduced the issue. So I did more research and started him on Equishure and in less than a week all of his crazy behavior stopped. His appetite was much better also! He won't ever be without it now and I am starting to incorporate it into all of my feeding programs. (Also, I did try switching to Yea-sacc but his appetite dropped and some of his behavior started coming back so I put him back on Equishure).

Formula 1 Noni is the best! Its an all in one supplement. That helps with your horses joints, immune system, ulcers, colic, stress, gut, coat, and so much more!
