"A friend recommended using Vitamin B1 to calm down my somewhat flighty horse and it has worked quite well. I am very pleased with the outcome. I did have to divide it up between morning and night feedings as he got a bit picky but is eating it fine in his beet pulp. The price was not over the top and I am very pleased with the product over all."

"I originally used SmartB1 which worked great, but since they stopped making that I switched to this. It doesn't seem to calm my horse as much as the SmartB1 did but it still seems to help him think things through when being ridden and be a little quieter. It isn't a miracle supplement, but if your horse just needs some extra brain power it might be the right choice."

"I bought my first horse in January and within a month her formerly good behavoir changed. I was confused and frustrated by her new nasty behavior - barring her teeth at me and others and being otherwise on edge. The stable owner suggested B1. She had been on it previously, but had been without it since I bought her. The results of reintroducing B1 have been amazing. CC is again relaxed and focused. She is a real joy to be with and to ride."

"I would advise anyone who wants to give suppliments to make sure they are in the pellet form. The powder formulas just do not get ingested well! Im going to try smartcalm pellets and see if it is worth the investment."

"I have a 8 year old paint gelding that acts like he is 3 years old. I am constantly showing him and bringing him to new places. He used to be very nervous and sometimes he was so scared that it would blow our class. I have had him on B-1 for 6 months now and have noticed a big change. He still has all of his good energy to make it through the shows, but now he is more relaxed and easy going. The change was almost immediate and now I will never take him off it! I love it!"

"Our Appendix/QH was spooking at every little thing until our trainer recommended B-1. It was a miracle! He is so calm and doesn't react to everything like he once did. My 13 yr. old can finally enjoy her horse. Thanks SmartPak for carrying this wonderful product."

"VitaFlex B-1 is a great calming supplement. I have tried others and the pure B-1 seems to get the best results. It relaxes a nervous horse in stressful situations such as rodeos, horse shows, etc. and helps them to focus better."

"I bought a sweet little pony for my 4 yr old daughter. it was a rescue. After separating the pony from its 6 month old foal, which was still nursing, curing a really bad case of lice, and a super bad case of thrush. this sweet little old pony was feeling a tad too good. with this product and a little TLC and training, my 4 yr old daughter can ride solo on her pony!"

"Only been using it for 3 weeks now, but seems to work good as a calming supplement. I had my gelding on Quiessence since October and switched to see if I could get the same results at a lower price. No difference in behavior since switching, and it saves me a few $$$"

B1 just Isn't working for my mare

June 18, 2008
ByMelissa
fromMaine
"My mare tends to be a little nervous and hot, so I tried her on a calming supplement. I was having very good luck with the SmartCalm until this spring. Thinking she wasn't getting enough Magnesium, I put her on a larger amount of Mag with no additional results. SmartCalm is a combination of Mag and B1, so I thought maybe I'd try just B1. I put her on the Vita-Flex B1 at 750 mg with no noticeable change in her behavior."

No more cribbing!

April 6, 2008
ByLaura
fromWindsor,VA
"I took my Arabian mare off of it thinking it wasn't doing anything, next thing I know my wood fence is being eaten to splinters. So after a couple months of trying to figure out what changed and even trying Quitt, I put her back on this product and suddenly no more cribbing! I guess it really did help her with anxiety more then I thought."

Wow!

May 6, 2007
ByCarrie's Happy owner.
fromApex, NC
"My mare has always been "flightly"... I started her on this supplement and in weeks I was amazed at how she was more focused on her work, easier to handle. I decided to take her off the supplement and she was RIGHT back to being all flighty. The Vitamin B-1 is a wonderful product for the price, plus she never hesitates to eat this in her feed!"
