I purchased ONE AC for my jumper and I highly recommend this product. My horse began sweating again and he is back to normal again.

Seriously a lifesaver! My horse was born up north and when he came down to the south we realized he didn't do what all the other horses were doing...sweating! Thank you smartpak for having such a great supplement so my Duncan (At Last) is cooling down and not overheating. :)

Our horse who was diagnosed with anhidrosis (failure to sweat properly) when her internal body temperature climbed during a heat wave but she did not sweat. We started her on this One A/C 2x a day at the vet's suggestion. The first thing we noticed is that she began to drink more water. After 3 days, she began sweating. We keep her on this year round, as we think there could be other underlying metabolic changes going on that we don't know about.
Other important tips for non-sweaters (and all horses): Be sure your horse's water is FRESH, clear, clean and palatable. If it is not, horses will only drink a bare minimum. You want them to drink A LOT so make it tasty and appealing. Don't use fly spray near the water as it settles in the water and pollutes the water. Be sure you offer a salt block (the natural red rocks have natural iodine in them). All horses need shade and in some states it's the law so don't neglect that.

When I purchased my 8 year old QH gelding I knew he had an issue with sweating. I did my research and talked with my vet and One AC seemed like the best product on the market for this problem. The SmartPak representative also suggest I give Apple-A-Day along with One AC. These two products together have my horse sweating like every other horse I've ever owned. Great product that delivered great results for me and my horse. If you have a horse with this problem I highly recommend giving it a try.

OneAC works very well. I've experienced using it with my own horses, as well as fellow boarders, and clients throughout the years. I've noticed it works more effectively if you start it about 1-2 months before the hot months arrive.

One AC has been lifechanging for my daughter's pony. He NEVER used to sweat, except lightly under his tack, and only then on days when the other horses would be in a full body sweat after doing the same work.
I found this product after we pulled him from an event because he was struggling with the heat (warm humid fall day in NE- he with an early winter coat).
THIS PRODUCT WORKS! After about two weeks we started to notice improved sweating, and now after several months of use, he sweats appropriately, all over his body just like a normal horse. YAY.
ONE AC does exactly what is says it will.

I have a large and young TB gelding who began struggling with the heat two summers ago, to the point that he quit sweating a few times during work. This is bad enough, made extra worse because I live in an awfully humid and hot climate. I started him on One AC two summers ago. Wow! What a difference! Within one week I noticed a huge difference. One AC is now protocol for our summer SmartPaks; as a result my horse is much happier and I worry much less.
I do suggest adding electrolytes to your routine while on One AC because your horse WILL sweat.

When dosed according to your horse's weight, this product works wonders. It is extremely hot and humid here during the summer, and my horse never showed signs of not sweating. We work 1-2 hours 6 days a week.

We are from North Dakota and this was our first summer in Houston, Texas. I put my horse on electrolytes and had salt and mineral for him. One of the girls who exercises horses at the stable and for me pointed out that she didn't think my horse was sweating an adequate amount when she was working him. Anhidrosis is new to me as in ND we don't really run into horses over heating. She suggested adding OneAC to his diet to help. I immediately ordered it and started him on it. Within 10 days he began sweating a normal amount while working. I will keep him on this until mid-late fall and then will likely start him on it a month or two before the hot season next year.

My 36 year old mare took the cross country move to SC hard. She developed anhidrosis this summer and after one month on One AC (supplemented with Guinness and Smartlytes), has developed patchy sweat on her chest and flank. I'm hopeful that we will continue this trend towards a full sweat so I can continue to enjoy my wonderful old mare.

My Icelandic gelding has done a complete turn around with One AC. The vet told me he couldn't have anhidrosis because we live in the mountains of Utah. He had all the symptoms so I ordered it and put him on it...vet said it couldn't hurt him and whallla....he does not have a high respiratory rate any more and he has more energy, feels better and sweats like a normal horse. So if your horse has the symptoms don't let the vet talk you out of it. You don't have to live in Florida to have a horse with anhidrosis.

The mare we bought in early spring seemed to sweat a little less than our other two horses, but I chalked it up to how unfit the other horses were! In a lesson in late July, temps about 90 degrees, I noticed she wasn't sweating AT ALL when my daughter stopped for a water break during the lesson. We hosed her down, and I ordered the One AC as soon as I got home. At her lesson a week later, she sweated through her saddle pad and had sweat everywhere else she's supposed to. This is the second horse I've seen respond to One AC, and I'm convinced. My local tack shop carries another supplement for anhidrosis, but I decided to wait for the One AC to arrive from SmartPak instead. So glad I did! It's hard to believe that 2 tsp a day makes a difference, but it really does.

When I moved my horse to a new barn, the weather got so much hotter. My trainer noticed that my horse wasn't sweating like he should. She had used ONE AC before with good results. It didn't take long to start working. My horse sweats normally now. Will not go without it again. I will start it much sooner next year.

I started using this product for my horse (11 years old QH gelding) last summer when he developed anhydrosis. Within several hours of his first dose, he had small patches of sweat on his shoulder. This year, I started him on 1 AC the first of April. He has been sweating as the summer temps have risen, both coming in from the pasture and under saddle. I'm really pleased with how this product has helped my horse deal with the heat & how quickly it started to work. One AC has allowed me to worry less about his andydrosis.

My horse's anhidrosis was so bad every summer (or any slightly warm days) I couldn't ride him at all. His fitness was never great because I worried too much about him over heating. Just a few weeks after putting him on One AC he started sweating like a normal horse! He's been on One AC for years now, and he's completely normal! I can ride him in any condition, and he doesn't get overheated or tired. Now that he's fit enough, we can finally make the move up to Prelim - Thank you One AC!!!!!!
