"This is Roxy my little border terrier cross, she is nearly 15 years old and has always been a bouncy energetic dog. Recently as she has gotten older she has become more stiff and walked with a slight limp she struggled on walks and seemed very down (showing her age) after a few weeks of being on Natural VetCare Ageility, I have started to see a huge improvement. Bouncing back around the place and seems a lot more alert and happy. Me and Roxy Dog would highly recommend this product."

"My dog is more mobile since being on Ageility."
"Pippin is keeping up with the younger pups now. She doesn’t seem to tire as easily when we’re coming to the end of the walk, and often wants to play ball in the house, even after her walk when she would usually just sleep."
"She seems to have more energy since she has been on the Ageility supplement."
“Angel was starting to feel her age after long walks and playing with her ball and toys. Since being on Ageility she has been more active after exercise. It also does not upset her sensitive stomach.”
“We had fed Ageility to all three of our rescue Collies, it’s a fabulous product that has helped them all in their later years. Murphy is now 11 ½ fit, active and loves a swim!”
Our four year old daisy has just gone off to be broken and we were really struggling to find a treat she enjoyed, she had already turned her nose up at carrots, apples, polos and pretty much anything else. The treats arrived when Daisy was away so Holly and the Shetland got the first try and adore them! They smell so nice in the bag I was tempted to try one. They were a really nice size to give as a little treat for after the horses had worked. After getting the approval from the Shetland and Holly, Daisy was allowed to try them and we finally found a treat she would take from us. Appy Treats are a convenient, neat and good sized treat that didn't leave a mess and all the ponies loved them! We are certainly off to buy another pack. Imogen McMurray
Appy treats - Apples feedback on this speaks volumes! He loves these treats. As soon as he hears the bag rustle from doors away he puts his smiliest face on and starts licking his lips! They are by far his favourite. Thanks Harry!
"I love NAF products and I have recently had a horse that loves to eat, and one of the only things he eats is NAF horse treats he loves the apple one's and also the hedgy and mint one's."
"Archie loves his Appy Treats more than anything else. When Archie has been a good boy I always reward him with Appy Treats as I find they don't make him giddy like mints do. They smell really nice."
Rupert was lean and fit when suddenly he developed acute colic requiring a stay at a veterinary hospital. Although surgical intervention wasn't needed, the stress had taken it's toll on him, and he returned home in poor condition and in low spirits. Rupert was put on a short course of NAF Biotics and daily NAF In the Pink Powder. The results speak for themselves. Within about a week his cheeky nature returned, and just a few weeks later his condition was back to good, and ready to restart work.
Garfield is a 21 year old ex hunt horse who developed a vertical crack in his hoof (which had exposed laminae underneath). As his hoof grew, the crack developed and ended up horizontal, this left no support for his heel and the break over point of his foot. Since feeding Biotin Plus, the new hoof growing down really strong and I am really pleased I decided to feed it. He is now sound again 16 months on. I truly believe without Biotin Plus his hoof would never have come right, thank you NAF. Jayne Gilbert
"My favourite products are the Biotin Plus supplement and the Sheer Luxe Cleanse & Condition (However I think Harry’s favourite is the NAF "Appy Treats"). At the beginning of the season my young event horse had horrifically bad feet, cracking, crumbling and constantly losing shoes due to the condition of his feet. I tried a range of supplements with no improvement until I tried the NAF Biotin Plus. Within 2 months of being on the supplement his feet have hardened and look amazing! We can now happily event without the fear of losing shoes all thanks to NAF! The supplement really worked well for my horse 'Harry' as he is quite a fussy eater but the NAF supplement is really palatable and I find him licking the bucket clean after eating.
Me and Harry use a range of NAF products and are yet to find one that doesn’t work extremely well and that we don’t like.
Many Many Thanks,
Chloe & Harry"
"Misty suffered a punctured sole from a stone whilst out hacking. Following xrays she had surgery to remove fracture bone fragments. After the surgery I put Misty on NAF Biotin Plus to aid re-growth and improve the strength and condition of her feet to hopefully stop this happening again!”
"I love the NAF products and have always used NAF products but our love for them have just grown!!! Well yesterday after using your products (Brighter than White, Razzle Dazzle Them, Make your Mark, Paint it Clear, Oil it Well) me and my pony came Supreme of Show!" Alice Frodsham
"My name is Bernadette McElhinney and I have a Welsh Section C named Synod Ieuan (Tommy). We qualified for the Royal international 133cm M&M WHP class and came 2nd, winning a NAF Five Star goody bag. I absolutely loved the products, they made his socks look so white and he just shone! We are based in Scotland but compete everywhere in Britain using NAF. I was also competing at Blair International Horse Show where he came champion M&M WHP and no one could believe how good he looked using NAF!"
"Brighter Than White is amazing, even after the rain as I was bathing and hacking to the show that coupled with NAF Muck Off spray kept his legs white all day. I was amazed the judge even commented that he had the whitest legs on the showground!! We also used the NAF Razzle Dazzle spray which made his coat really shine." Jess Baker
I used the NAF Brighter Than White, and its the first one I have found that she isn't irritated with. It was very easy to apply, lasted and didn't come off on the bandages unlike some other ones!! Happy pony, happy owner! Linzi Crichton
I work for Wynnstay in the Skipton branch and show horses in my spare time. I just wanted to let you know how fabulous the NAF range of cleaning/grooming products are. My sister and I have 2 grey horses and we would be lost without your fantastic products. We have an Irish Draught Maxi Cob Mare called Newshams Mooncoin (Bobbi) and a Irish Sports horse who is a Novice Heavyweight Hunter called Mount Rushmore (Brody). Last September Bobbi was graded by the Irish Draught Society and was graded class 1 she received the highest conformation mare of all the mares graded and the 3 inspectors also commented on her presentation. In 2015 Bobbi had a very successful year and was featured in the Irish Draught Year book with a full page article, she also had a number of other photographs in the year book due to her successes at the Northern, Midlands and South West Irish Draught shows. 2016 has also started out very successful with Bobbi has so far winning 2 supreme of show championships, 6 champions and 3 reserve champions. A number of people ask how we get her so clean and her tail and legs so white! The key to her looking so sparkling clean is we use NAF Pimp my Pony on her body, and for her tail and legs we wash them with NAF Show OFF shampoo. The morning of the show we use NAF Muck OFF on any dirty bits and always put this in her tail even if it is clean as this makes the tail very white! We also regularly use the NAF Shine ON Grooming spray to keep their coats in fab condition. Brody is in his first season showing as Christina badly broke her ankle last year and therefore he was not broken until the end of 2015. Brody's nickname at home is Mud Monster and he loves to be dirty - this is not helpful when he is 17.2hds and grey! I have attached a photo that shows a usual dirty photo of him. Brody has so far been to 2 shows and won at both these shows and also won a championship and reserve championship. At these shows a number of people asked how we get him so clean! Again we use NAF Show OFF shampoo, NAF Muck Off (on a daily basis) and NAF Shine on Grooming Spray. I have found that the grooming spray really helps to keep his coat clean. Over the years we have used all brands of cleaning and grooming products but NAF is by far the best! We would be lost without your products, they also smell fantastic, we also get a lot of comments at show on how clean and well the horses look. Christina and I are complete amateurs we buy our horses in Ireland as unbroken and usually a little wild 3 years old and break and produce them ourselves. Christina works as an Environmental Consultant specialising in flood risk and resilience so this years has been exceptionally busy for her but we always make time for our horses as they are our passion and it's great to see they are looking their best and so glad NAF make such good products to help our horses look there best. I have attached photographs so you can see how great Bobbi and Brody look thanks to NAF. Nicola
"I’ve attached a couple of pics of Mr Moo competing last season as you can see we need lots of Brighter Than White - I love it."
"The leading product for me at the moment is NAF Brighter than White, I have always used this, but now having to get ready a horse with 4 very large white socks, this product has really come into the limelight. The photo speaks volumes and everyone comments on her bright socks."
"Thank you for amazing products, Piran Sweetheart was mud monster to snow white. I used Show Off purple shampoo all over, Muck Off stain remover for the deep stains, Oil It Well to give her a shine and Brighter Than White chalk for her legs."
"Our favourite NAF products would have to be the Love the SKIN hes in Skin Wash, NAF off Extra Effect fly repellent and the Brighter Than White. The skin wash is great for my horses as they have very sensitive skin so, I try and use this wash daily after they have been exercised. The Brighter Than White powder is great for whitening their legs the day before the competition; it's so easy to use and is very effective."
"Welsh Section D, Llynhellyg Daisy Duke and myself are regularly out competing British Dressage with huge success in 2019. One thing I always get complements on is Daisy appearance! She has 4 white socks which are hard to keep clean, until I discovered NAF Brighter Then White! I love Brighter Then White because it’s so easy to use, cost effective and time saving! This is one of the most important parts of my show kit now, however my whole show kit is full of NAF products this is my favourite!"
"Recently after having used the NAF Show Off shampoo successfully last year I decided to purchase some Brighter Than White for my Connemara. After a last minute decision to take her cross country schooling we coated her up in Brighter Than White so she would look nice in the pictures, she was the cleanest she’s ever been, I’m definitely sticking with Brighter Than White! Cannot thank you all at NAF enough! Even her mane was white! Thanks again!"
"You've made my life easier! What a game changer NAF Brighter Than White is. I got fed up of buying products that don't really work and on a whim, my friend picked this up for me to try as a last ditch attempt for keeping George white! All I can say is WOW, especially because we were showing this weekend and he came in looking like a mud monster!”
We recently tried NAF’s Brighter Than White, Silky Mane & Tail D-Tangler and Show Off to get our grey pony sparkling for a pony club competition. They worked a treat and our team won the tack and turnout!
"Beautiful Ted has never looked or felt better thanks to Cat'Skin."
"Take care of your cat's skin this wet winter and make them feel as good as gorgeous Fayce by supplementing their diet with Natural VetCare Cat'Skin."
"My pony deserves a treat for looking after me so well and we love NAF Cherry treats! She cannot wait for me to open the bag but she isn't allowed to eat them all so it's a good job it’s re-sealable!"
"The NAF Treats have to be my favourite as everytime I go in the tack room my horse wants more treats! They smell so so good and I am in love with the packaging. If I was a horse I would eat them all in one go."
"I love NAF products. At the moment I am using your Cooling Wash, Warming Wash, Electro Salts, GastriAid, Tack Cleaner and Hoof Moist! NAF Cleanse and Condition and Soft Soap is keeping my tack looking it’s very best!"
"Harry absolutely loves the Cooling Wash as it works an absolute dream and smells absolutely amazing.”
My favourite NAF product is the Cooling Wash, it makes Pumpkin feel better after a busy day and helps cool him down after getting hot and sweaty.
I’ve been using the NAF Cooling Wash for a couple of months now and it’s one of my tack room must haves! Not only is it gentle on my sensitive horses skin it also provides a refreshing clean to his sweaty coat after he was been worked without need to worry about hosing him off afterwards.
Trial Horse 1, pictured immediately prior to the start of the trial. Trial Horse 1, showing the improvement in Body Condition and Coat Condition following Equine Cushings Syndrome supplement trial.
"We have had the minnies for 5 or so years now, both rescues so we don't know how old they are but Minnie (the chestnut) is the mother. She has always had bad skin and coat and has never shed it properly in the summer. She is also quite slow and struggles just generally like a proper old lady.
Since taking cushinaze I honestly am amazed at the difference! She is like a completely new pony. Her coat has shed and isn't curly like it has been before. The farrier said she is lifting her legs better and her feet are in good condition. And this evening she cantered down the field for her dinner! She last cantered about 4 years ago!
I cannot thank you enough for recommending.
My naughty little ginger pony is back!
Thank you again,
Emily xx
Ps. Photos below. First taken today and second taken a month or so ago before starting on Cushinaze. Best one I have but it shows her curly coat at the front.
At 29 years old, Rocky started to struggle to keep weight on and seemed a bit flat in himself. After using Cushinaze, he’s back to his enthusiastic self and is putting some condition back on.
"May is 26 years old now and last year I noticed she just didn’t look as good as normal. She seemed to age really quickly and her coat was greasy and dull, so I decided to try Cushinaze to support her in the aging process. The difference has been amazing. Her coat looks fabulous, her body shape has improved and she looks more like her old self, and certainly has a spring in her step again."
"This is Tolly who I love very much, my favourite two products are Oestress and D-itch because they work so well and the D-itch smells really nice."
Peanut (Vendome du Muguet) owned by Chloe Durrant. Before: Peanut was being badly bitten by midges and was becoming agitated and uncomfortable. Chloe decided to try D-Itch Skin Spray. After: Says Chloe ‘I just wanted to say thank you! Within about two minutes of spraying her with D Itch Skin Spray, she was nodding off in her doorway and back to her normal self rather than throwing herself at the floor and walls of her stable. I’m following this up with a course of the D Itch Powder and applying NAF Off Deet Power. Thanks to NAF I have my happy mare back!’
“I’ve been using the D-Itch Skin Spray for nearly four years on my sensitive fine-skinned mare. She really struggles with fly/midge bites and can come up in lumps in the summer and the D-Itch Skin spray really soothes them. During seasonal changes her coat can get flaky so we hot cloth her with the Skin Wash which leaves her coat looking well for weeks. Seriously couldn’t live without D-Itch!”
I have always fed NAF Cod Liver Oil and Garlic to my horse for general health. D-Itch was brought into my feed room when Cassa, a bright bay mare, with a very fine coat which shines like copper, was clearly uncomfortable and scratching herself. I applied fly repellent day and night and was careful about turn out times but she would still be seen rubbing her neck on the stable door and on trees in the paddock. It was almost a ritual as soon as she was turned out. However, since feeding her D-Itch, I rarely see her rubbing and she is a much happier horse – as you can see from the photo.
“I have tried a number of skin products but nothing worked. I tried Love The Skin He’s In D-Itch and noticed a difference quite quickly. I would highly recommend this product as I have seen the results for myself.”
"My mare has itchy skin, her white areas in particular. I tried the D-Itch supplement and within a couple of weeks I saw a huge difference, not just in her itching but her whole skin condition. She has been on it ever since!"
NAF’s D-Itch Supplement has really worked for my cob. She unfortunately got sunburnt during the summer and as a result developed itchy and irritated skin. Feeding this supplement helped her to get back to feeling herself and the sunburn healed well.
"My mare has itchy skin, her white areas in particular. I tried the D-Itch Supplement and within a couple of weeks I saw a huge difference, not just in her itching but her whole skin condition. She has been on it ever since!"
"This D-Itch supplement is absolutely fabulous, really helps to relieve my sweet itch mare. Using this and other products has really helped to keep my show Shetland intact."
Sue Insull with her horse Pidge. Says Sue - "Pidge has mild stringhalt in one hind leg which had resulted in difficulty in picking his foot out, and sometimes with shoeing. My local saddler suggested feeding NAF D-Tox. Since feeding D-Tox, instead of being able to pick his foot out on the second or third attempt I can now pick it out first time. I tend to up the dose to the loading level when the grass is coming through, as I find he is worse round these times. It certainly does make a difference, and I have recommended it to several friends!"
Malachi, a five year old 15.2hh Welsh cob cross owned by Fiona Jaffray. Malachi can be susceptible to urinary issues which occur frequently and make him uncomfortable. After speaking to the freephone helpline, Fiona tried D-Tox. "Since feeding D-Tox, Malachi's bladder has improved and he us much more comfortable. I am very impressed with its fast action. The D-Tox has done exactly what you said; my horse is now peeing freely!"
One of the first things I noticed were his droppings, they were rather sloppy and had an unpleasant odour and his back end was caked in the remnants. Since he was coming into a new environment, I put him onto the concentrated dose of Daily Gut Health and what a difference it has made. Within 10 days his droppings were normal, no pungent smell and his back end was clear. He stayed on the concentrated dose for 1 month before moving onto the maintenance dose.
William (Travelling Times) owned by Diane Leslie-Veal. William was never destined to be an easy horse. At the age of two he had colic surgery, and at four was diagnosed with kissing spine. He had two of his vertebrae in the middle of his back removed, however he remained an unbelievably sharp horse who was unpredictable to ride. Diane tried calmers but found that nothing really helped, so she decided to try feeding Devil's Relief. Says Diane "The difference is phenomenal! He has changed from being almost unrideable and refusing to go forward, to a horse working in a beautiful outline. I know it's the Devils Relief as I changed to a different brand, and within two weeks he had reverted back to being thoroughly unpleasant to ride. He's now back on Devils Relief and going from strength to strength. The Olympics may be a tad out of reach but William and I will go on to achieve great things together! Thank you!"
Charlie is 10 year old 16.3hh ID x TB, he had a successful eventing career which unfortunately ended at intermediate level. Having been under Veterinary care for other joint related issue, Jayne now feeds Devil's Relief. Says Jayne "He is a wonderful horse and almost back to form, thanks for your help and for a wonderful product!" Jayne Emery
"This is our 26 yr old show pony, Boo. He has been struggling lately with his joints and after a consultation with our fabulous Cat from NAF we decided to try Devils Relief and within the week Boo’s stifles has improved and he was so much more comfortable! I recommend this NAF product!"
“Macy is an eighteen year old Connie cross who is a good doer and on a restricted diet all year round. As a result of being stabled more often and in her later years we have noticed some stiffness. This last winter she has been fed Devils Relief to help and the result has been very good, she is now more mobile to ride and we hack three times a week.”
"Dog'Skin maintained my dogs in tiptop condition."
"The scratching has calmed down a lot."
"Rex's irritable skin is history since taking Dog'Skin."
"Tootsie and Murphy's coats are luxuriant and thick. They look so much better now."
"Lulu is like a different dog now, all the itchiness has gone."
"Jessie's itchy ears have really improved!"
"The results have been amazing!"
"Mabel's itchy skin is completely under control with Dog’Skin."
"George is prone to hot spots and is generally an itchy dog, with no real identifiable cause. Since starting him on Dog’Skin he hardly scratches, and has had no hotspots. If I forget to put a scoop in his dinner he waits and looks at me as he loves the taste of the pellets! His coat lies better, and even though he is a white dog there is a real shine to his coat. I am so impressed I recommend it to everyone I know."
The skin in his ears is less pink and he hasn't had as many issues with them!
The skin on the legs is less pink and not so itchy!
The results of feeding this product are unbelievable! I just didn’t think the hair loss problem could be solved. It’s like a miracle!
Dry patches on skin have gone. The ears are no longer itchy and excess wax has disappeared!
Monty is so much happier and not licking his paws constantly. Works just as well as the medication we used to get from the vets!
I have noticed that the paw-chewing is now less frequent and less frantic.
He is less itchy since being on Dog’Skin.
The dogs’ skin is less red, they have no ear infections and a bright coat!
The foot chewing has reduced since using Dog’Skin!
The coat is now much softer.
"Twig was no longer concerned about the nettle stings after we applied the spray."
"His scratching has calmed down a lot and he is feeling great!"
"I love this spray! I use it after hand stripping my show dog Herbie to help soothe his skin, and on all three of my dogs when we have gone for a walk where they have been brushing through lots of vegetation or long grass to help soothe their skin of any irritation. I also like to spray in between their pads after trimming their feet to make sure they are comfy. I wouldn’t be without Dog’Skin Solution - I use it almost every day!"
Drumpack Dakota (Indie) owned and ridden by Mandy La-Four Before Mandy purchased Indie to help with her rehabilitation following a triple heart bypass. However, Mandy soon noticed that Indie was quite thick in his wind. After Says Mandy, "I tried Easy Breathing after seeing an advert in Absolute Horse Magazine and since feeding it the difference is evident. Thank you NAF!"
"My absolutely favourite products from NAF are the easy breathing, it has helped my pony so much. He has very sensitive lungs when it comes to eating hay and I have found this product to really help him. My other favourite product from NAF is the cooling wash I find it perfect after I have done sj or xc with him or done some hard work it’s perfect for when his muscles are hot, and my favourite product that I like to use for myself is NAF's stable hands cream! Perfect in the winter when my hands are dry. Just want to say thank you for making such good quality products. Your products have really helped me and my pony."
Harriet Bloomfield & Lady I would just like to thank you for making such an incredible product. I have been using the NAF Easy Breathing Liquid for a few months now and it's truly worked wonders for my welshie. Before when being ridden she was lethargic, coughing, heavily breathing and very much lacked impulsion. After only a week of trying the NAF Easy Breathing Liquid I noticed such a big difference and now after a few months she is a completely different ride and she is so much happier. We are now working towards undertaking some workers next show season but without this product my girl just wouldn't be able to excel to her maximum potential. Harriet Bloomfield
We feed Ester Electro Salts throughout the year. She can sometimes be a fussy eater, we have tried products diluted in water but she didn't approve, Electro Salts definitely pass the test! We have qualified for the Badminton Grassroots Final, and as eventers we are out travelling around the country quite a lot. During Ester's travels in the lorry, she works up quite a heavy sweat, so we swear by Electro Salts to make sure she has all the requirements to compete as a happy and healthy pony! Megan Alecock
Here is my boy 9 year old KWPN gelding "Beant lan" in training and competition ready for Somerford Premier League next week. He's fed on Electro Salts when away competing to keep him on top form and healthy. I rely on these the keep him at his best, and they always work! Kirstie Clarke
Samantha Fussell & Ollie I absolutely love the NAF Electro Salts as they give my horses a nice boost when we are away at three day shows!
Emma Baskeyfield & Joey "We bought Joey in April as a 5 year old and he has been very busy over the summer with Pony Club events! We still have lots of work to do and to help get Joey in shape, we had been using NAF Electro Salts and the General Purpose Supplement. My favourite NAF product is the Instant Magic Calmer as it is the only one that works!"
"NAF Electrosalts keep Birchcol Rock Idol fit, healthy and in peak performance throughout the season - they are an essential part of our kit whenever we go eventing."
"I love NAF products. At the moment I am using your Cooling Wash, Warming Wash, Electro Salts, GastriAid, Tack Cleaner and Hoof Moist! NAF Cleanse and Condition and Soft Soap is keeping my tack looking it’s very best!"
"I am currently using NAF Electro Salts, as the most common loss of performance and tiredness is down to lack of salts. I also use NAF Off Extra Effect, as it is the most effective protection against flies, horse flies and insect menace.”
Woody is a big, solid horse and certainly through the Summer and Eventing season he sweats, a lot! I do sometimes feel as well that he could just do with a little more spark. Not bucking me off please, but a certain je ne sais quoi. We change his feed throughout the year depending on his work load, how much energy he needs and how much of his energy I can comfortably contain! I must say I have been very impressed! He has been having it in one of his daily feeds for 3 months now and he has never felt better. It has not ‘hotted’ him up but I have noticed a difference in a much more forward thinking attitude from him. He has always loved working and is not lazy but he certainly now has a bit more zest for life! It is definitely a supplement that I will continue to use and I like that it is a well-rounded and full of the Iron and vitamins that he needs to cope with the work I ask of him and keep him looking fabulous at the same time. It is also in my opinion very good value for money. Clare Williams
“Duke was really struggling with ridden classes he would just go super flat but since we’ve fed him EnerG we feel that he goes a lot more forward in the ring. It does exactly what it says on tub, the difference in Duke with EnerG is amazing!” Nikolaa Edwards
‘After being recommended the EnerG Shot from NAF, I gave this a try at a BE, I could not believe the difference, Sidney was awake, alert and on top form going into the jumping phases, I would never go to an event without one!’
This is Tresmeake Bay, who has just moved to advanced level in endurance with the help of NAF EnergyG and electrolytes! She's not you're typical endurance horse, which makes her multiple winnings in the South West and in national awards extra special!
I love my EnerG from NAF! It has given my horse bigger wings to fly clear and placed rounds! I love that I can see the difference within a week or so! I love to try new NAF products, and I know that they are the best for my Horse Falko!
"I use NAF EnerG to give my horse an extra boost in the ring. It has worked fabulously and really gives him the edge. He has had a fabulous first open season winning three HOYS qualifiers and finishing by winning the Golden Anniversary Championship at the BSPS Summer Championship show."
"People frequently tell me Token is 'a lot of horse' to hold together, but also to make 'GO'. He often lacks energy, however we find using the NAF EnerG liquid for the week before a show and shots on the day of have helped give him the boost we need."
Trigger is an Irish Sports Horse and is a good doer. He?s a great jumper, but sometimes runs out of energy, especially if we are away jumping for a few days. If I add high energy food he adds weight, so I tried EnerG. I pre-loaded before we went away and he jumped great every day. On the last day he was still full of jumping.

“Bobby is a 17 year old 17hh maxi cob and we compete in BE, BS and BD at Medium. He was very listless when changing coat coming into winter, it was like having to put your peddle down more and more on the accelerator to get to the same outcome – I knew there was something wrong and it wasn’t just a regular coat change slump. After tests the vet suggested he may have had a virus; since then we’ve been feeding NAF EnerG and have never looked back.”
I've been feeding EnerG for two months and am so impressed with the results. My horse has always struggled in the summer when it gets warm but I've been worried about using an energy supplement and how he would react, especially for dressage. EnerG has been amazing! Worzel has his spark back and much improved stamina without any silliness. The exact result I was hoping for, thanks NAF.
Solli, a Show Arabian and Mooney a Welsh pony owned by Katie O'Brian Before Mooney becomes very tired whilst competing with Katie's daughter at Pony Club and Solli needs an extra boost to make him stand out from the crowd. After Says Katie, "I use the EnerG liquid and the EnerG shots to give Solli and Mooney an extra boost. Mooney has had some very good results with my daughter since she has been on EnerG. While Solli has gained 2 Championships and 3 Reserves this season along with numerous wins on our first season out together. I cannot rate EnerG enough!"
Satisfaction ridden by Angela Westgarth Before: Says Angela, "I always use EnerG shots before a big competition, as it gives Satisfaction the sparkle he needs to win." After: Angela and Satisfaction winner of the Novice Restricted at the NAF British Dressage Winter Championships
I have been using NAF EnerG for a number of years for my mare Tia, whom I compete with in all riding club activities and BS amateur classes. I feed EnerG Liquid during the hot months when she is working hard and competing regularly, as well as using the EnerG Shots at competitions. They give Tia that bit of extra spark and focus without heating her up, and she recovers so much more quickly after a hard day's work. I always ensure these vital products are in my lorry - without them, it can be hard work! Sara Bryant Photocredit - www.jumpforit.co.uk
"After a challenging weekend with Micky competing on the Saturday in British dressage in three separate classes, we knew micky was going to need a pick me up; especially with a four hour gap in between dressage and show jumping. During dressage, micky felt amazing and then went sleepy during his break but soon perked up when he had his boost of enerG shot! He flew around show jumping and didn’t even want to stop during cross country. A firm favourite in the Micky Finn team and we will certainly be using again!! Roll on the rest of the eventing season!"
A few months ago I started feeding Metazone Powder to my wonderful mare and we have recently qualified for RDS Dublin horse show in amateurs! She felt absolutely amazing, I also give an EnerG Shot before competitions which really helps! It was an all day event and she had to jump 3 rounds. She didn't feel tired, jumped really well and we qualified!
My boy is not the best of healers and can be quite accident prone. He managed to get an overreach even with boots on. After a week, you wouldn't even have known he had done it! EquiCleanse is very easy to use and a little goes a long way. I will definitely be stocking up! Nicci Bunting
'I have tried EquiCleanse and have been very happy with it. I have been less happy with my horses getting little cuts, grazes and one nasty over reach but this product has certainly helped clear them up quickly and without too much drama!' Vicki
We have never used any grease before as many people had commented that their grease came off by time they'd even started the Cross-Country. We chose NAF Event Grease as we had seen Laura Collett had used it at Badminton and it looked to work well. It was easy to apply and stuck to the legs well, very impressed that although the white colour wasn't very visible when out on the Cross-Country, the greasiness was still there when we were cooling off afterwards, after all, that's the most important bit! I have attached a photo of him on the Cross-Country wearing Event Grease. Thank you for a fab product!! Susie White
"The only Event Grease that I've ever used that doesn't come off in water jumps! It's fantastic and doesn't wear or rub off half way round the course so there is plenty of cover left for the fences near the end. It's not sticky like some are and doesn't run off in the heat. Takes a couple of washes to remove it but by far the best event grease I've come across!" Amber Major - Bertie McSquirty Scunthorpe & District Pony Club

"We have had terrible feet issues this year. The incredibly wet February with a very dry May onwards meant we had serious feet growth issues. The foot was crumbly and not growing. We were struggling to get shoes on as the nails wouldn’t stay in."
After
"This is now - you can see the new foot growth with 3 months of using Pro Feet. The heel is less under run and the quality of the foot has improved exponentially. We actually have decent foot for the shoes."
"I have used the product on my 2 horses, my veteran horses hooves are prone to being brittle, especially in the summer months. I have found the Farrier Dressing product easy to apply, it provides moisture with bacteria fighting properties, which is super important when dealing with brittle OAP hooves! As well as being functional, upon application hooves look great with this product! It provides a long lasting shine, so it's also a grooming kit essential on show days."
"I just wanted to say a massive thank you for your amazing PROFEET range! The PROFEET Powder, Farrier Dressing and Rock Hard have strengthened my horse's feet and he now has his first set of shoes on. This now means that we can begin to bring him back into work."
"We've been battling a crack since June 2019 so decided to try PROFEET. I'm now on tub number 3 of PROFEET and been using PROFEET Farrier Solution. As you can see the results speak for themselves!"
When I first got Jerry, his hooves weren’t in the best shape and they were very cracked. After a few weeks of using PROFEET Farrier Solution, his hooves had no cracks and have definitely hardened up so it’s now an essential product, especially as he is barefoot too!
"Using Farrier Solution by PROFEET was quick, easy and convenient and was far less greasy than other products. It penetrated the hoof wall well too. The screw top handle makes applying the liquid so easy. The consistency of the liquid is first rate - it stays on the brush without dripping everywhere and seems to stay put once applied to the hoof wall."
"Lewis has to be shod every 4 weeks and we’ve struggled over the years to find a product that encourages quality hoof growth. He has been on PROFEET for 5 weeks and the last time he was shod the farrier had plenty to trim. His feet look in excellent condition, nails are still tight and no sign of splits round the nails. PROFEET and a daily application of Farrier Solution are helping to improve the quality of his hooves and have them looking in top condition and we wouldn’t be without either in our tack room."

Absolutely love this product, feeds the feet perfectly and lasts as a dressing for so long. Cannot wait to be able to go showing and competing again and to use this product in the ring.
Since using the solution my Farrier has remarked how good his feet are looking! A must have for the my grooming box from now on, his feet look so smart!!
"I have been using PROFEET Farrier Solution for a few weeks now and I love it. It goes on well and having the brush in the lid keeps everything clean. Vinnie’s hooves are nice and moisturised."
"Eddie suffers from poor hoof quality particularly in his fore feet. So far the PROFEET Farrier Solution seems to be making a real difference with the hoof looking stronger and healthier."
"Fitz’s hooves look so healthy after a few weeks using PROFEET Farrier Solution. It’s quick and easy to apply using the built in brush and paints on smoothly. It has protected against the cracks which usually appear when the seasons change like no other product we’ve tried!"
"I use PROFEET Farrier Dressing to maintain my horse’s hooves and the PROFEET Farrier Solution prize is handy to keep in the tack box for making his feet look smart for 'special' days."
"Milo’s hooves have been in fantastic condition since using PROFEET Farrier Solution. It’s really easy to apply even in colder weather and it gives hooves a beautiful shine."
Without a doubt PROFEET has allowed me to keep Desi in work; no hoof no horse is a very true saying and PROFEET has saved Desi’s hooves. Last summer, Desi was pulling his shoes off on a weekly basis and we made the decision to try keeping him barefoot. He was already on the PROFEET Pellets and we'd seen an improvement in hoof growth which my farrier had commented on too, but his shoe pulling was causing problems. Once the shoes were off we added the Farrier Solution and Rock Hard to Desi's hoofcare routine and have not looked back. His old shod hoof has nearly fully grown out & his foot balance is so much better.
“I love the non-drip and a little goes a long way, I’d go so far to say it’s better if you use sparingly and it’s great for whatever colour of hoof.”
“I absolutely love the NAF PROFEET Pellets and the Farrier Solution! My horse has had historically terrible feet, and struggles to keep shoes on, but not any more! My farrier is overjoyed, and my horse is sound and happy. Thanks NAF!”
"Farrier Solution has helped keep my horse's hooves moisturised in this extremely dry weather and kept them healthy.”
"We have very dry, sandy soil and my horses have always tended to have slightly tatty feet. Whilst they hold the shoes fine and there were no major cracks, bits used to break off around the old nail holes and the hooves wouldn't look as good as I would like. Over the years I have tried many different hoof care products and l can safely say that PROFEET Farrier Solution is the best I’ve found. Last summer, having applied Farrier Solution every day, their feet looked the best they ever have, despite the incredibly hot dry weather. I would definitely recommend it!” Photo by Steve Wood Photographer
“My ex racehorse Mr Wiggins has typically poor hooves so my farrier recommended NAF Farrier Solution about 12 months ago. I’ve used it almost daily since and it has absolutely changed Wiggins’ hooves, it’s now very rare he loses a shoe, it’s made a huge difference.”

"We have been pleased to participate in a study on the new fertility supplement produced by NAF. When given the supplement daily to our gypsy cob stallion Black Pudding, we noticed a significant effect on the production of progressively motile sperm cells as compared to the previous year when he was given only vitamin E as a supplement. Black Pudding also showed increased vigour and stamina during the time he was fed the supplement, both in his breeding work and also during his training in hand and under saddle. Based on what we observed during the trial period, we will certainly be continuing to use the NAF fertility supplement and highly recommend it to other stallion owners."
"We have fed NAF fertility to our dressage stallion KL Mac, who struggles to maintain condition during the breeding season. Since starting on the supplement his vitality has been excellent when covering mares and he has been very fertile. He has also maintained his weight and competed successfully whilst breeding."
"My stallion Eclipse CES is a once in a lifetime horse. He has amazing temperament, everyone loves him and he loves being around everyone; he's so caring and has even assisted with equine therapy. He is one in a million and he inspires me everyday! I'm very proud of him and he's also on NAF Five Star Fertility which he loves 😍."
If you have a breeding stallion too and would like some more info about Fertility, pop us a quick DM.
"We used NAF Five Star Fertility for Stallions during the 2021 breeding season on our stallion Koning Albert. We were thrilled with the semen analysis results, fantastic motility, viability and success rates, he will definitely have it again in 2022!"
We use NAF Five Star Fertility on both our boys Bigstone Midas Touch (in the photo) and Crown’s Ace Of Pearl. We would highly recommend Fertility as it helps support both their performance and semen quality, which we are delighted about as stallion owners and breeders ourselves.
Whitsbury Manor Stud
"Last season we fed all our stallions NAF Five Star Fertility as a matter of course. We found Fertility maximised conception rates
throughout the season. It has become part of our routine to keep each stallion performing at
his best and we will be keeping them on it next year for sure!"
"We fed one drive initially to see if we could tell a difference. It made numbers increase by about 40%!!! We also had very few low birds and now use it as a matter of course in all feeders, for all drives! This product increased length of drive and we were able to put on an additional day!"
“What a day we had! We are putting it down to the Game Hold – great birds!”
Mally would get rather excitable as soon as we got the travel boots out and his droppings would be messy for days while we were competing. NAF recommended GastriAid and within days the results were brilliant, less worry, good droppings and a happier pony! All of my ponies are also fed Five Star Optimum Balancer, that's all they get, they are looking so shiny and performing fantastically. Ssan Skeggs.

Jasmine is a member of British Showjumping and the NAF BS Five Star Scheme, having gone on to achieve her 1 & 2* Awards. Says Jasmine "I just wanted to write to tell you how impressed I am with GastriAid. My horse Archie can get wound up when we go to a stay away at shows which we do at least once a month. I have tried a few things but nothing really seemed to work until I found GastriAid. It works a dream and I will never be without it!" Jasmine Beal
Harry's behaviour, due to his continued stable rest and no turnout during winter months, would favour that he may have developed gastric issues. He was exceptionally grumpy, would bite and bang his teeth along the stable door, launch over the stable door to bite - definitely meaning it with his ears back. He would also be much worse if he had nothing left in his haynet (ie in a morning). Since being fed GastriAid Harry is much more settled and doesn't get as wound up if he has eaten all his net and he is much happier in his self, much better when you groom him and go anywhere near his tummy! Tamara Atkinson
Just wanted to say how much change I have noticed in my mare since feeding GastriAid. She has always been funny and sensitive about her stomach, and a nervous type. Finally she is putting on a good amount of muscle and weight, she has never looked so good! She also is happier and relaxed when competing and overall seems far more settled. Thank you. Ella-Grace Richardson
"Huge thank you to NAF for recommending GastriAid and In the Pink Powder for my horse. I brought my mare back from America after spending a few years there. The journey and adjustment to life in the UK seemed all a little much for her. After spending months trying to get her to settle, I decided to make sure her gastric system was healthy. NAF recommended I try GastriAid to support her digestive system. The results were amazing. Alongside her digestive issues, she has a number of issues which makes feeding her a balanced diet extremely difficult. She is unable to tolerate many supplements and balancers containing fillers so I have always found it hard to get everything she needs into her. NAF In the Pink Powder has been a huge success, her coat is shining, her hoofs are growing well and her condition is improving everyday. She's gained 14kg so far! With the help of NAF I am finally seeing parts of my lovely horse reappear. A big thank you the NAF and Claire Bibby for all the help and support."
Karen Paffey & Farmhill Covers Guy "Thank you for recommending GastriAid, it has been invaluable. Here we are coming 7th in the Prelim class at our first regional competition."
Since feeding GastriAid there has been a difference in Silver's attitude - one very happy horse!!! Keren & Silver
"I started Stu on your GastriAid a couple months ago and have noticed a big difference in his appetite and therefore condition. I'm really pleased as he was never that interested in his hay and now he never stops eating it since being on GastriAid, and he's just looking so much better!"
Katie Blewitt "My favourite NAF product is GastriAid as it has helped with my horse's behaviour and attitude to work."
This is the lovely Aslan. He is 22 and I know I'm bias, but I think he's look mighty fine! This photo is from last summer at the national horse trials. Aslan is a fan of NAF products, he's won 5 rugs and lots of vouchers over the years at the riding club champs. He's a fussy eater and can smell a supplement at 50 paces, however he has no problem with the GastriAid. He looks really well on it, though his condition does pick up as we come into the summer. Aslan had severe colitis in 2015. It was a very difficult time, receiving calls from the vet telling us he's going! But with his lion heart he pulled through. I always keep him on a gut supplement now just to try and ensure I do everything I can to stop it happening again. The Silky mane and tail spray works really well, I used half a dozen squirts in his tail and it brushes out easily. I only have to use the spray every third day as it lasts really well. It has a lovely smell too.
I have two favourite supplements I use and that is the GastriAid and Oestress. I have a 6yo ex race horse who I have had as a 4yo and have retrained her myself from straight off the track. She was unsettled and very difficult to ride when I first got her and now that she is on GastriAid it has really focused her. All of my horses are now on GastriAid and their condition and focus and enjoyment of life has improved dramatically. I would recommend GastriAid to everyone! Pictured is Sienna my 6yo ex racer.
"We bought Carrowgar Cool Katie 3 years ago as a 5 year old. She took a long time to bond; she had a very strong flight instinct and would turn and run at most opportunities - motorbikes, lorries, runners, some dogs... so we tried her with 5*magic which had a small calming influence over her, but after attending a lecture about gastric ulcers- we decided to try her on Gastri-Aid- having heard that about 90% of horses suffer from ulcers- being such a stressy mare we thought it highly likely that she had them. She has now been taking Gastri-Aid for 2 1/2 years and we have seen a great improvement in her levels of anxiety and calmness, (as well as her irritability at girthing up). This has enabled the bond to develop between horse and teenager, to a fantastic level of mutual trust- the stuff of fairytales."
"Earlier this year my horse Joey became a nightmare to ride as he was so spooky out hacking trying to bolt at the littlest thing, grumpy to handle & things deteriorated to the point that I lost my confidence. I stopped feeding him to see whether it was his diet which in turn delayed the development of his summer coat. Things hit rock bottom when I went to a show & came last in every class as the judge said he looked awful as he had a patchy dull coat.
I then contacted Kate who advised me to try Five Star Optimum so Joey could get the nutrients needed to grow his summer coat. We started the Optimum at the end of May. However Joey still wasn’t right & dropped condition. Kate came out & condition scored Joey & whilst doing this noticed that Joey wasn’t keen on being touched around the girth area. I was recommend GastriAid to try & see whether Joey’s problems were stomach related as Kate was aware of the other issues that I had been having when riding. 2 days after the loading dose commenced I was riding Joey out hacking on the buckle which has never happened. The 3rd day he stood for 15 minutes out hacking whilst I had a chat to friends who asked me what I had done to Joey as he never stands still out hacking.
The change in Joey at shows has been amazing - he now stands still in the ring & isn’t spinning round getting worried about other horses. I have now got my confidence back & have even tried ridden showing which 4 months ago I would have been frightened to do for fear of Joey spooking & bolting with me in the ring as the slightest thing out hacking wound him up to the point where I would get off & walk home.
This weekend we were at a stay away show & upon Kate’s advice we gave Joey the loading dose of GastriAid 2 days before travel & whilst we were there. Joey was so chilled in the ring for both Ridden & in Hand Showing & the judge who presented us with the In Hand Best Turned Out Championship trophy remarked on how still Joey stood in the ring compared to the other horses. The fact that we won the Championship against other stunning Palamino horses is testimount to how well he now looks.
I attach 2 photos taken this weekend.
Thank you Team Naf for giving me my horse back & my confidence."
"My favourite product is the GastriAid. Bailey was having days where he was sensitive but since he's been having the GastriAid we haven't had a bad day since and he is so much happier both on the ground and under saddle. We couldn't live without it now!"
"It's an absolute must that NAF Brighter Than White is in my grooming bag! It's perfect for achieving a gleaming white coat as well as covering those last minute stable stains! I would be lost without NAF Plait It Up. It's a life saver for those early show mornings, keeping my plaits looking and staying fabulous! NAF GastriAid is a must for my mare! It ensures her gut is lined and PH balanced to help her get on with her job happily! I wouldn’t feed anything else!"
“I have been using NAF GastriAid for about a year and can honestly say I can't believe the difference in his behaviour - more level headed, happier in himself and happy to do his job. I am a Grade 1 para dressage rider and won the gold para nationals at Stoneleigh.”
"GGastriAid has made my horse maintain comfort and we haven’t seen any reoccurrence of the gastric discomfort he had previously had. Magic has focused my horse and he seems a lot calmer not kicking out at other horses or rearing under saddle, fantastic product!"
"I love NAF products. At the moment I am using your Cooling Wash, Warming Wash, Electro Salts, GastriAid, Tack Cleaner and Hoof Moist! NAF Cleanse and Condition and Soft Soap is keeping my tack looking it’s very best!"
"I feed Melody GastriAid to help protect her stomach when jumping, but also to help keep her condition and appetite when at away shows."
"I’ve been using the Mud Off once a week on our traditional mare, Miss Mulligan and as you can see it’s keeping her feathers clean and silky. Just need to spray her knees next time too."
"I feed GastriAid to my mare Fern, since adding it to her feed, she hasn't been half as stressy, is in great condition and eats so much better!! Thank goodness we found GastriAid!"
"GastriAid gets Timmy’s seal of approval! Since starting this supplement I have definitely noticed that he seems a lot happier in himself. His performance has been mega so far this season and his condition is improving each week. Thank you NAF and Eland Lodge for recommending this product for Timmy, it is definitely one I’ll be keeping in my feed room!"
"This is me showjumping my little mare Rosie. She is fed on Oestress & GastriAid and is looking and feeling amazing. Thank you NAF!"
“I am so impressed with the results that I have had with GastriAid. I put my 10 year old novice eventer on it two months ago as he was just showing a few signs of being uncomfortable when saddling him. He has regular saddle checks and physio so after doing some research, I thought I would try your product and the results are amazing. He is so much happier, has a real shine to his coat and is back to his cheeky personality! Thank you so much NAF for another amazing product.”
Since being fed NAF GastriAid and Five Star Optimum Balancer, I have found Morph to be less stressed when he is being ridden and he is now the favourite escort for the younger horses when we’re hacking. Feeding him Optimum allows me to know that he is receving all of the correct nutrients he needs to be healthy. Five Star Respirator Boost is also an essential for Morph during the winter months.
We have been using both NAF GastriAid and in the Pink Powder since my son Morgan’s mare Libby arrived around a year ago and wow, what a difference it has made to her coat and settling her tummy. After starting GastriAid, we noticed that Libby was a lot less sensitive to girth up and groom and she was generally much more settled in the stable. The in the Pink Powder has also really helped Libby's general well-being and her coat and condition just look amazing. The proof is in the before and after pictures of Libby.
“I was recommended NAF Five Star GastriAid by Jo Howse for my retired 25 year old gelding Brandy who suffers quite badly from free faecal water. I had tried so many products to try and help him and was at a loss with what to do. He was getting grumpy, bloated and often had wet and sore back legs. He’s been on GastriAid for about a year now and since adding it to his feeds, he’s become so much happier within himself. His coat is back shining, he’s cantering around the field with his friend and is finally for the first time in a long time with mostly normal firm poos. Thank you so much to Jo for all your help and advice with Brandy!”
"We put our new event horse Georgie on GastriAid as her coat wasn’t great and she didn’t seem to be thriving with her condition; we have been so impressed with the results. Her coat is now shiny and she is now holding the perfect condition. We mix it in her feeds twice a day and we will continue with her on the maintenance dose as it is working so well. Highly recommended."
"I have been using NAF GastriAid for about a year and can honestly say I can't believe the difference in his behaviour- more level headed, happier in him self and happy to do his job. I am a Grade 1Para dressage rider and won the gold para nationals at Stoneleigh."
"I've been using GastriAid for a year now and I've been impressed with the results. I got the product when having issues with my mare getting digestive issues through the stress of travelling and competing, I find that this helps keep the acid levels in-check and enables better nutrient absorption."
"Bertie has been on NAF GastriAid for about 12 months now and the transformation after talking to one of NAF Area Sales Managers has been phenomenal. He is easier to ride and his general condition is so much better. He also loves his work now. Thank you!"
"My boy Grogan has always been very sensitive, stressy and a take it as you go kind of horse.. since being on GastriAid I've never known anything like it! He's a completely different pony- I refer to it as his "happy" supplement."
"My mare has always been girthy. Had her scoped and no obvious issues, but she does produce an huge amount of stomach acid due to previously being starved before I got her. Decided to give GastriAid a try and no longer have a girthy horse. Thank you NAF!"
"I have been using GastriAid for just under a year and Tom has never been happier. He is an ex racehorse who can be sensitive at times but the GastriAid has improved his attitude towards work greatly. Happy tummy happy Tom."
"NAF Five Star GastriAid is a very important part of my horses feed and is the must have daily supplement for total gut health. GastriAid is so important for promoting correct function throughout my horses digestive systems and it keeps them in tip top condition inside and out.”
Since feeding GastriAid my horse has improved so much, usually every spring he would have to be under veterinary advised care to coincide with the spring grass and increased sugar content. I started feeding GastriAid at the start of the year and for the first time ever I haven’t had to call the vet out.
Tigga ridden by Tintin Belsham and owned by Suzie Belsham. Tigga was displaying the types of behaviour associated with gastric issues, and while veterinary medication was an option, Suzie wanted to try an alternative so she started feeding GastriVet. Says Suzie, “After one month of feeding the supplement, Tigga was a lot happier in herself and was also much more settled in her stable.”
A big thank you to NAF for keeping Pauldary’s Zarla Blue fighting fit! Back in 2014 Zarla was diagnosed with Gastric issues, following veterinary treatment and advice I chose GastriVet and the results have spoken for themselves. Zarla showed so much improvement quickly once GastriVet was added to her daily feed regime, she is a much happier horse and has gone from strength to strength in training and competition. With such impressive results I have since started feeding Superflex to keep her joints in tip top condition and MPower to support her muscle development. Zarla and I recently won the Scottish Regional Medium R Music Freestyle championship and received a wildcard for the Albion Medium Restricted Winter Championship at the NAF Five Star Winter Championships. A very big thank you to NAF and Area Sales Manager Mary Wastie for your support! Katie James. Photo Courtesy of Equiscot Photography.
Sam, ridden by Faye Stephenson, a 17.2hh 6 year old eventer and hunter. Before: After Sam started producing inconsistent results, Faye decided to investigate what may be causing the issues. It was soon discovered that Sam had Gastric concerns. Following veterinary treatment, Faye decided to try GastriVet. After: Says Faye, “Since using GastriVet, Sam is looking and feeling amazing. Normally he would come back from eventing and hunting quite tucked up and would be off his feed and water for a while, however, he now comes back a different horse – looking as well as when he left the yard as well as tucking into his feed, haylage and water.
Hugo, a 16.3h British Sport Horse owned by Charlotte Sherriff. Two weeks ago, Hugo started refusing to go forwards when ridden and then became very upset when under the saddle. He also went off his feed and generally seemed uncomfortable within himself. Says Charlotte “So I stopped riding him, turned him out in the field with ad-lib hay and started GastriVet 7 days ago. Now, after the recommended daily amount for the first week, Hugo is a different horse! He’s very happy and comfortable and I can now put his saddle on without any problems! He is much more relaxed and happy int he stable too. I rode him yesterday for the first time in 13 days and wow, what a difference! He felt amazing, the best he’s ever gone – no naughty behaviour at all! He loved his work and I could tell he was thoroughly enjoying his schooling yesterday! Thank you NAF and GastriVet, an amazing product – I’ve just bought my second tub for Hugo and will be recommending this to everybody! Thank you!”
Dexter ‘Odakotah Dex’ has always had an anxious disposition which, when I first rescued him, lead to frequent episodes of digestive discomfort along with a very bad temper. After discussions with our vet and searching for a supplement for what seemed a lifetime, we have found something that actually works! GastriVet is fab, his digestion has improved, and he is so easy and pleasant to be around now. We can finally re-start ridden work now he’s feeling comfortable. Thank you so much NAF. Jodie Stevenson
Harry, a 15 year old ex 2* Eventer owned by Charlotte West. When Harry arrived at Charlotte’s yard he was nervous, constantly alert and on the look out. Consequently, he couldn’t hold any condition, plus he seemed to be showing signs of discomfort. Charlotte suspected some digestive issues and started to feed GastriVet. Says Charlotte ‘We are very pleased with the improvements we have seen since feeding the GastriVet, Harry seems so much more comfortable. I also highly recommend Magic which we feed to Harry.” Self confessed NAF fan, Charlotte, adds “Charles has EnerG Shot and Mud Gard. I also love the NAF Off Citronella Tags. We go through tons of Minty treats and have lots of Pink Wraps in our first aid kit!”
Bodie (Bodieve Top Flight), an 18hh ID x TB owned by Chloe Durrant. When GastriVet was launched, Chloe decided to try a tub as Bodie’s digestive system could be tricky to keep balanced. Says Chloe “GastriVet worked within just two days, and I’ve kept him on a maintenance dose to keep him regular. He’s much happier, less grumpy and easier to ride! You’re saving me a fortune in not having to rebuild Bodie’s stable every time he gets cranky! I am thrilled with all of your products.”
Bayberry King (Berry) an ex-racehorse owned by Colin and Michelle King. Berry would go through stages where his digestive system would become unbalanced so Colin and Michelle decided he needed some help. Michelle phoned many companies to see what products were available and, after calling the NAF Freephone line, they decided to try GastriVet. After Says Michelle, “Within 3 days we were able to ride him without any of the usual signs appearing after exercise. His appetite has returned and he is back eating us out of house and home. He has been on GastriVet for just 3 weeks and is back to his happy self. He is full of energy and we plan to put him onto the GastriAid once he has finished his course of GastriVet. GastriVet has provided Berry with relief that we can afford, and we are looking forward to having him healthy for many years to come.”
"Alfie was showing signs of digestive upset, and the vet confirmed our thoughts by scope in November. He was treated initially with veterinary medication but another scope four weeks later showed the situation hadn't improved. It was proving too expensive to carry on long term so a couple of weeks later we started feeding GastriVet. Four weeks after starting GastriVet and his behaviour has changed dramatically - he is much happier in his stable, being tacked up and is working really well. He will be travelling to Holland at the end of this month and will definitely stay on GastriVet for the move" Emily Bradshaw
Arnie 16.1hh Anglo Arab 21 yrs old. He is exercised regularly, hacking and flat work training. He has been getting very grumpy about having rug straps and girths done up for quite some time. This winter he was even worse, his groom and I have been dodging his front teeth. On top of this he lost some condition as well. I had been putting it down to the upset of moving yards and his advancing age. However having read that both weight loss and this sort of behaviour can be attributed to ulcers I decided to give the GastriVet a try. Within just a few weeks Arnie seemed like a different horse. Both my groom and I noticed an enormous improvement in his attitude. 5 weeks later he has continued to improve and has gained significant condition, before the spring grass has come through. I am absolutely delighted with the improvement. Arnie means the world to me, all I want is for him to be happy and well. Thank goodness the Gastrivet seems to be doing the trick.
"The NAF GastriVet has been a lifesaver for Smokey! Turning him from being unrideable to winning at hickstead in just three weeks. It has done an amazing job and is very palatable for a fussy thoroughbred. The Show Off shampoo is also a godsend for keeping him looking gleaming."
"I have owned Larrie since he was 4 years old, and he has always been a sensitive horse with a temperament to match! I noticed him starting to dunk his haylage and feed into his water, as well as being uncomfortable whilst doing up his girth. After speaking to NAF, I tried him on GastriVet Pellets and within a week, the symptoms disappeared, the dunking ceased and he has become much for manageable to handle and ride. I would highly recommend this product!"
"I started noticing some behavioural issues with Tommy such as stress and tension and after explaining these to my local NAF representative Emily, I was recommended GastriVet. Since being on this amazing product, I have noticed a huge difference in Tommy's demeanour and attitude. He's so much happier in the stable and is much better when travelling now. He is also much calmer and relaxed in his work which has made a big difference in his jumping. I can't believe the difference GastriVet has made to my Tommy and would highly recommend it."
"One of my horses stresses internally and on the advice of my trainer Bobby Hayler, I put him on GastriVet pellets and I am currently also trialling Magic for competition and heavy training days. I'm very pleased with his progress and his scores are up by around 4%."
After what was a serious colic incident, Mylee developed hind gut imbalance. Her droppings really smelt, and on examination my vet suggested that I add a supplement containing comprehensive gut support. We put her on NAF GastriVet and within three days the smell had left her droppings and she started to pick up, becoming her old self again.
After getting a horse back from a trial, we noticed that she was showing signs of discomfort when being ridden, which was unusual for her. After speaking to NAF, we decided to feed her GastriVet, and wow, within four days she was back to her normal self. I’ve never seen a supplement work so quickly, with such obvious results.
I have an 8 year old horse who has been particularly sensitive about the girth and also even in the lightest of leg aids. He would shoot off with his back very tense and high and was clearly very uncomfortable despite having a very well fitting saddle. I put him onto GastriVet and even when he has been fresh or in a competition environment, he has continued to react to my leg in a much better way! For competitions, I have also given him the Instant Biotics pre and post competition which seems to be a winning combination. This has given me the ability to ride him much more confidently and as a result, he has stepped up to Prix St George very easily.
“Lightweight Hunter Loughanboy, aka Malcolm, had been having intermittent loose droppings and at times a sore tummy. On recommendation, I decided to try NAF GastriVet. I saw a difference in Malcolm within two days; no loose droppings and a much happier tummy, it’s been revolutionary. I would recommend this product to anyone whose horse or pony is suffering from the same.”
“The Traveller (or Archie as he is known at home) used to suffer with faecal water and loose droppings. After trying several other, our NAF Area Sales Manager, Jen Rollason, suggested Five Star GastriVet. It’s made an amazing difference, he’s a much happier horse and we have no more loose droppings staining his legs. We also love NAF Show Off shampoo, it’s amazing for removing stains and highlighting the colours in Archie’s coat.”
Lady has been reactive between her front legs when groomed as well as girthy for the past couple of months. When I read about the products available to support her gut health, I chose to try GastriVet; she is now into her second tub and the results are really showing. There are no reactions at all anymore from grooming between her front legs and she considerably less girthy. I'm really pleased and will definitely continue with this product.
"I was recommended NAF Gastrivet after my horse showed several signs of digestive discomfort, he's laid back but an internal worrier and not been straight forward to break. After one tub he was like a different horse! For the first time, he was so relaxed, settled and happy to work and keeps improving!"
“Meg has recently suffered with gastric issues and I was kindly advised by Jo from NAF to feed NAF Five Star GastriVet, it really helped! Within a short space of time, she was much more comfortable whilst being tacked up and also when ridden. I am now feeding NAF Five Star GastriAid for maintenance. One year on, her gastric issues are under control! Unfortunately, Meg then went on to have some tendon issues which resulted in surgery. I have been feeding NAF Five Star Metazone to help and it has resulted in a huge improvement. Alongside NAF Five Star Superflex Senior, there has been a great visible result in her movement and comfort.I highly recommend these products, they have really helped Meg over a difficult year. She is looking and feeling great!”
“Erik came to me in June 2022 from a friend whose circumstances had changed. Erik had a lovely summer where we spent time getting to know him then Autumn/Winter came and he was like a horse possessed, bronking off in canter when schooling. When hacking out we would get to one point and he would freeze, if we tried to move him forward he would start bucking and rearing. For safety we stopped hacking but he was also aggressive in the stable and would lash out so we called the vet. After a long chat with the vet about his previous veterinary history relating to his gut and looking at various supplements, NAF GastriVet caught my eye. I discussed it with my vet and she said to try it. Well, it has been amazing, we noticed a massive change in just four days. He even went out competing last summer with scores of +70% at Prelim. Coming into this last winter we upped his GastriVet and he is currently doing fabulously.”
"I have fed NAF Five Star GastriVet for about a year now and I have never been so impressed with a supplement. Previously Della has struggled with being girthy and a bit grouchy and that has completely disappeared since being on this supplement. I briefly took her off it this winter and noticed an immediate difference in her demeanour. She was straight back on it!"
Micky, a 138cm showjump pony owned by Polly Smith Micky has lots of character, he is very cheeky and gets easily attached to my other ponies. He can be a bit of an attention seeker when he wants to be. To keep him happy and quiet, I give him NAF Minty Treats which he loves so much, he will try his best to get one. To keep him looking and feeling his best, we also feed him NAF General Purpose Supplement. Thanks so much NAF!
Queensdale Red Pennant Red is a brilliant pony when he is not bucking with me! He is a nine year old Welsh x Show Pony. I have had him since he was six months old. He can jump 2.3ft, he is a home produced lead rein pony and he is starting to do Dressage. A couple of weeks ago we started feeding him General Purpose Supplement - he looks and feels great! Poppy Daly
Bandit a 15.2hh, 7 year old Dutch Warmblood owned by Holly Pomeroy. When Holly purchased Bandit, he had a very dull coat and was overweight. Holly immediately put him on a diet, but struggled with his feeding. He then had to be admitted to Liphook Equine Hospital with digestive issues. After being carefully nursed back to health his feed was changed to Alfalfa with NAF General Purpose Supplement. Says Holly "As well as making his coat very shiny, it helps support his immune system. The supplement gives him all the vitamins and minerals he needs to be a healthy happy horse, essential for a career in dressage!"
"My favourite NAF product is the General Purpose Supplement because I love the fact that it gives them the vitamins and minerals they need and just simply goes into their feed."
"I’ve had my horse on your General Purpose Supplement for just over 3 weeks now and all I can say is 'wow'!
I initially put him on this as my farrier said he wasn’t growing a lot of hoof and advised putting him on a supplement to encourage foot growth. I’m usually quite sceptical about using supplements as there are a lot around and would be concerned that they are financial gain for the businesses without actually doing a lot for the horse. I spent a week researching what supplement I wanted to use and decided to go for the one with the best reviews (your General Purpose Supplement).
I’m so impressed with it already! My horse hasn’t looked so good! His coat is shining, his feet are healthy and his mane has finally started to grow back after a winter of rubbing it! Your supplement is very good value for money and I really cannot say how amazing I’m finding it!!"
Holmehall Wizzkid (Wurzel) a 10 year old Welsh Section D gelding owned by Lucy Hepplewhite. Says Lucy "Haylage Balancer has supported Wurzel's digestive system for many years. Before I fed Haylage Balancer, I couldn't feed him any type of rich food (I.e. Haylage and sugar beet) but since I put him on this supplement, he happily eats Haylage without it upsetting his stomach."
Will D'Beast a 17.3hh dressage horse. Within four days of being fed Haylage Balancer, Will is a changed horse! Before, his temperament could be a little 'difficult' and he was somewhat tricky to ride. He was permanently unsettled and grumpy in his stable and his bed was constantly trashed! Will is turned out daily for about an hour, other than that he is stabled and fed haylage year round. Now he has his daily Haylage Balancer, Will is much happier and calmer in his box, with no unpleasant faces or attempts to bite anyone who comes too close to his door. Furthermore, his bed is neat and tidy every morning! Everyone who knows Will is totally amazed by his complete transformation!
"I love NAF products and I have recently had a horse that loves to eat, and one of the only things he eats is NAF horse treats he loves the apple one's and also the hedgy and mint one's."
If you need a healthy, boredom breaker, or just fancy treating your horse to something new I'd 100% recommend the NAF Himalayan Salt Lick, a small one lasts me 2-3 months and I am never without one. Jessica and Oscar
"I would 1000% recommend the Himalayan Salt Lick. Such a great product to use in the stable especially during winter months! Think I'm in need of buying another one soon!"
Tara Robinson and Paula Robinson Showing team! We would like to say a huge Thank you to NAF for their amazing products I use many of there products on mine and my mums horses our favourite products are the NAF hoof oil which is great for around the shows and lasts ages! I clean all our tack with NAF leather soft soap which is just amazing whenever we buy new tack we always use loads of this to get the leather soft I am also a massive fan of the NAF Instant Magic calmer it is great for evening performances and shows where the atmosphere is "electric" we mainly use the Instant Magic calmer on Royal Doulton aged 20 our home produced large hack (he has a proven recorded in the showing world including 1st RIHS , 2nd HOYS , 1st and champion at equifest and 1st and supreme champion at 15+ national championship the calmer is excellent for him as he can get very excited at equifest in the evening performance I would recommend the Instant Magic calmer it is the best on the market that really does work! We also use in the pink senior powder for our home produced Fell Hedgethorpe April Morning aged 15 (who also has a proven recored in the showing world including 1st & reserve champion at Ponies UK , 1st NCPA pony of the year show we have had a successful showing season since with many placing at major shows including the Great Yorkshire Show and many more Royal Doulton also gets the pink senior powder It is great to keep veterans moving supple and free I would defiantly recommend NAF products they are great products which really do work!
Twizzy, a 16.3hh, 8 year old Belgium Warmblood, owned by Rachel Poyser Before: Says Rachel "I have just started using Ice Cool after finishing a similar product." After: "Since using Ice Cool Twizzy's legs have no swelling the next day after running cross country. I last used my Ice Cool after cross country on Saturday when I qualified for the Pony Club championships, and felt confident enough to hack Twizzy out the next day as her legs looked so fab. Thank you for making such a great product!"
Twenty-three year old Lady enjoys NAF Immuforte in her feed. She needs the extra support in her senior years, especially with her immune system.
The horses in my care have very busy competition schedules. To help their systems cope with the rigors of travelling, not only abroad but in this country, I need to be able to help them support their immune systems. NAF's Immuforte is a fast acting immune booster which gives me peace of mind that when the horses are experiencing different climates and environments they will remain in the best possible condition and able to fight off any challenges.
Diesel suffered from a serious but unexplained skin trauma last year. All the hair fell off his legs and the skin became red and sore and then cracked and split. He had to spend many weeks on box rest whilst a variety of different remedies were tried by our Vet. After many months the skin started to heal but by then Diesel had lost all his condition. His coat was dull and staring and he looked really miserable. I was given NAF’s new Immuforte liquid to try to help boost his immune system and to help him with his recovery. The result was amazing and it wasn’t long before he was back to his usual perky self. I would have no hesitation in recommending this wonderful product to anyone whose horse’s immune system has been compromised and needs a boost.
Showjumping competitions take us and our horses all over the UK and the world. This means that our horses are exposed to new environments and strange horses on a regular basis which can place stress on their immune systems. Feeding NAF Immuforte on a daily basis helps us to know that alongside our own biosecurity measures, we are doing the best we can to keep our horses healthy and ready to perform.
Bobo is a rescue pony who came into my care three months ago. I have used NAF products for well over a decade and I swore by Pink Powder and then In the Pink Senior for my pony Sam. So when I got Bobo, I did not hesitate to put him onto Pink Powder to ensure he gets all the vitamins and minerals he required and as you can see from the photographs he looks amazing on it!
If it wasn't for In the Pink Powder, my miniature horse Isabella wouldn't be doing so well. She had complicated digestive issues, couldn't eat any mixes/hard feed and was on a hay only diet taking veterinary medication daily. As a foal as nothing would stay in her and she lost half her tail due to scald from chronic diarrhoea. I was asked if we should carry on with treatment but I didn't want to give up on her. The vet put her on In the Pink Powder and Alfalfa and a year down the line she's doubled her weight. She's now out spreading the word thanking the people who helped her recover! Bryony Gillespie
I started feeding In the Pink Powder for Romeo's sensitive stomach, I found that not only did it help aid digestion but also improved his general wellbeing, muscle tone and overall performance, very pleased! Jay Page
Rupert was lean and fit when suddenly he developed acute colic requiring a stay at a veterinary hospital. Although surgical intervention wasn't needed, the stress had taken it's toll on him, and he returned home in poor condition and in low spirits. Rupert was put on a short course of NAF Biotics and daily NAF In the Pink Powder. The results speak for themselves. Within about a week his cheeky nature returned, and just a few weeks later his condition was back to good, and ready to restart work.
Mylee, my Irish Sports Horse came over from Ireland as an un broken six year old, and measured about 15hh. We had lots of issues due to her growing and then getting tight in her muscles, which then slowed up the training. She was also quite sharp so as she was going through the lanky growth spurts we couldn't increase her feed as she was then too much. We put her on In the Pink Powder to add condition and fed MPower to enable her muscles to get stronger and cope with the work. She now stands at 16.1 and you can see she is a very different looking horse. Photos are of her as a 7 year old in January and then as a 10 year old also in January. Jo Howse
Every horse owner has 'hero' products they would never be without and two of mine are In the Pink Powder, and In the Pink Senior. I have been using these products for 20 year old Sam for over nine years now and would not use anything else. I did try another product about three years ago and Sam went from producing around 7 piles of droppings a day to just 2, so I immediately went back to 'old faithful' and he was back to normal within days. Sometimes you don't fully appreciate how good a product is until you try something else! Sonja and Sam
I bought My Boy a little over 3 years ago. He was in such poor condition I was recommended by a friend to try Pink. 1 week on he looked like a completely different horse and 12 weeks on well into a regular routine of work. He really has had a new lease of life even completing a 21 mile ride, I can't believe it. Something as simple as adding Pink Powder to his basic feed has allowed him to rebalance his system and utilise all the goodness in his food.
Here is Jasmin Teague on her homebred Welsh PB 'Garthfach Push On'. He has Pink Powder and Superflex. Jasmin said, "Pink Powder keeps my pony fit all year round!." Mum, Penny Teague has also enclosed a photo of their liveries who all have NAF products. Penny explains, "My feed room looks a bit like a NAF shop."
Amy Eastwood and Haysden Woodstock (Woody) Amy has owned Woody for the past 7 years & has trained him through the levels from Prelim to Advanced Medium. "We have recently begun our journey at Advanced Medium, with it being our third & fourth tests Saturday at Crofton Manor. We won both our sections on 66+% & 67+% with a 3rd overall in one of the tests." I absolutely love your products, currently feeding the NAF Pink Powder. You can see the improvements thanks to your product.
Amy Pett "I use NAF In the Pink Powder on all my competition horses to maintain weight and condition."
"This is my horse Smart Alec, he's a Lightweight Show Hunter. Just wanted to say I've been using the NAF Pink Powder and it's worked wonders for him keeping him in top condition for the show ring, very very happy! I love the NAF products!"
"People always comment on how amazing Mouse looks, they ask what we use to make him shine. It's just the Pink Powder doing its job. We wouldn't be without it!"
"Thank you NAF for the incredible products you manufacture. Martha is fed daily on In The Pink Powder. Martha’s general condition and attitude speaks volumes for this product resulting in our qualification for Royal International 2018. Thank you NAF!"
"All of our ponies are on your Pink Powder as we find it really makes them bloom. It helps them feel at their best allowing them to shine in the ring."
"This Welsh cob stallion has been pretty much run for the last 2 years on NAF products. We're settling his insides using Pink Powder as a part of his diet twice a day without fail. I could not be without your Love The Skin He's In Wash; he is constantly washed down using it and I now use the skin spray from that range, which is also fantastic. He has Respirator every morning in his feed to keep the airways clear, and even has Brighter Than White chalk on at shows. The cob is Northwick Notorious as featured in the latest issue of Horse and Hound. In his two years of open classes, he has won at Royal Highland and champion, won Royal Cheshire a few days previously, qualifying twice in a week for Hoys on only his 3rd outing of this term. Last year, he won numerous championships and Supremes and Wpcs performance medals. He also won Royal Norfolk and had his best result to date at the one that can't be topped, being ridden Welsh Cob Champion at the 2018 Royal Welsh Show. Just wanted to let you know and say thank you for all your wonderful products that we wouldn't be without, particularly for Notorious who is such a sensitive horse."
"At the age of 14, almost 6 years of riding and 3 ponies later, Abbie is looking forward to a busy year. To keep Robin in tip top condition Abbie adds Pink powder and Superflex to his daily feed. She was hugely impressed with the noticeable difference in his condition after only one week and she knows that his joints will be supple and flexible ready for the intense season ahead."
Déjà vu (Molly) is now 15 years old and I have had the pleasure of owning and riding her for the last 12 years. As SDRC members, we have been to the BRC Winter Show Jumping Championships twice, the BRC National Championships twice and the Horse Trials Championships twice; my daughter rode her there again this year. Molly has been on NAF in the Pink Powder for approximately ten years and Superflex for the last two, we wouldn’t change a thing. Photo credit - Action Replay Photography
We have been using both NAF GastriAid and in the Pink Powder since my son Morgan’s mare Libby arrived around a year ago and wow, what a difference it has made to her coat and settling her tummy. After starting GastriAid, we noticed that Libby was a lot less sensitive to girth up and groom and she was generally much more settled in the stable. The in the Pink Powder has also really helped Libby's general well-being and her coat and condition just look amazing. The proof is in the before and after pictures of Libby.
“I’ve owned Argenda for a short time and since owning him, he's been fed on NAF Five Star Metazone, Five Star Superflex and in the Pink Powder. They've given him springs and my trainer, Johnathan Bowman, who has known him for years, says he’s never seen him looking and jumping so well.”
“We swear by NAF In the Pink Powder, both our boys wait eagerly for their feeds. Our horses are 3 and 23 and In the Pink Powder helps keep them in great condition, I highly recommend it for EVERY horse owner.”
Our champion NAF product is in the Pink Powder. I have been feeding this product for years now, ever since it was recommended to me by the NAF team. It keeps her looking her best and feeling great! She used to have digestive troubles at times of change such as when the spring grass would come in, or having more haylage in winter despite my best efforts of introducing slowly. in the Pink Powder supports her and is an essential part of her feeding routine.
Jimmy is a 20 year old 14.2hh. When he reached his twenties, we were worried we would have to reduce the amount of riding and competing, however since feeding him In the Pink Senior, he is better than ever. He feels younger and full of energy and we are able to continue competing and jumping. I would recommend this supplement to all with older horses and ponies. Maddie Bell
Meet Dodger, a 19 year old 16.2hh TB x Irish Sport Horse. Since Dodger has been fed In the Pink Senior I have not only seen a change in him mentally but also physically. He is far more bright and alert, his coat gleams, he seems more agile (sometimes his rather naughty old self!) I cannot tell you the peace of mind it has given knowing that he is getting the correct amount of what he needs and not having to constantly think Poor Dodger all the time, thinking he would only ever be a happy hacker for me, instead I am now wanting to get him fit for hunting next year! Ashlee Abbott
I just wanted to thank you so much for In The Pink Senior. My horse Sulford is an ex racehorse that came close to being put down when he fell at a jump during a race seven years ago. The trainer said he could never be ridden again, but once we got him home and took care of him, he flourished. He's now twenty three years old and the winters are taking their toll, this one in particular. I tried all sorts of feeds to keep the weight on him but it was going straight in and straight out the other end, it got to the point last month when I almost decided that it would be a kindness to let him go. However, a friend said they swore by Pink Powder, so we gave it a try. In the first week I could already see a difference in his body, the nutrients in his food were finally going to where they needed to, and now, although it has only been a month, he's looking fantastic! I have NAF to thank for that. Linda Kenyon.

"A picture of 28 year old Bod after winning the in hand Veteran and overall Veteran Championship at Chagford Agricultural show. He has been given your Senior Pink Powder for years and we believe that this contributes hugely to his wellbeing. Thank you."
I have owned Purdy for over 10 years and she’s never looked better. I have been using in the Pink Senior and she looks absolutely fantastic on it. At 23 years old she is still keeping up with the competition and isn't showing any signs of wanting to slow down. Being a New Forest she is a very good doer and is on restricted grazing throughout the summer, in the Pink Senior enables me to give her all the nutrients to balance her diet and at the same time support her digestive system and her joints which is what she needs due to her age. It also give her a real spark and she is just as quirky as ever!
"I have always fed NAF products to Piglet now 22 years young. Now he has In the Pink Senior and Superflex Senior, and looks better than ever. Thanks to Jo Howse who has helped us since she joined NAF many years ago."
"Since using In the Pink Senior his coat looks so much healthier, he seems happier and more enthusiastic about his work! I have one very happy beastie!"

With Rupert turning 14, I wanted to offer him some additional support to keep him as happy and healthy as possible, especially with his active life. In the Pink Senior has brightened his spark and has given me the peace of mind that he’s receiving all the vitamins and minerals that he needs plus joint and gut support.
“Instant Biotics is one of my favourite products to feed prior to travelling. It's such a great product and I've noticed a big difference in Shadow feeling more settled at show after having a syringe before travel.”
Willem van Oranje (stable name Willem) a 12 year old chestnut gelding, 16.3. KWPN. Although Willem is really laid back at home and will do a lovely test under normal circumstances he does get nervous at the bigger events especially indoors. It all started a few years ago when he experienced some scary moments during one of the (BD) championships. This resulting in Willem becoming unpredictable, especially during arena walks where I would always be looking for an escape route. When doing a test with a crowd he would just go into himself so you end up coaching him round. This is especially sad as he is such a great person otherwise and I hate to see a horse so unsure. I was dreading going into the main arena at Hartpury for an arena walk. I had often heard about Instant Magic but being from a pharmaceutical background perhaps slightly sceptical having already tried some "other calmers" with no result. Thinking I have come all this way, why not try Instant Magic - so I bought a pack. I was advised it works pretty quickly and with nothing to lose "why not try it and see the response" with the biggest test of all, the arena walk. Well it was magic, initially Willem was a little apprehensive but within minutes ended up walking round on the end of the buckle. Armed with another tube the following day for the test he went into the arena much more relaxed and I didn't have to coach him around, he even coped with the applause. What was most important to me is that Willem came out of that arena a much more happy and confident horse. So thank you Instant Magic. I will be using it again in the future. Ida de Fouw
I wanted to take the time to write this email to say a massive thank to your Nutritional Helpline. I had my new horse arriving in three weeks and wanted to make sure that I made it a smooth transition for both of us and also wanted to make sure I was meeting all his feeding requirements. I could not have asked for anyone more helpful and full of great advice. Having been told George can easily be on his toes in new situations and could find the move stressful, I was advised to try Instant Magic. I gave this to George a couple of hours before he travelled and when he arrived he was as calm as a cucumber and did not bat an eyelid, taking everything in his stride. His previous owners could not believe how well he settled into his new home already. Thank you so much for fantastic advice and I am going to continue to use Magic liquid to help with all his new experiences. Lastly I would like to add I was very impressed with the interest that was taken to get to know myself and my new horse. Emma Anne Walker
Eric is a 22 year old ex-racehorse with whom we regularly compete at dressage and have moved from Intro to Prelim to Novice. He is often placed and has progressed really well since starting this discipline 2 years ago. We have been feeding him NAF Magic for the last ten years and would highly recommend it and indeed have done to friends. He sometimes gets an Instant Magic syringe before a competition too as he can be highly strung at times and can get worked up before an event. Lucy Telford
Tara Robinson and Paula Robinson Showing team! We would like to say a huge Thank you to NAF for their amazing products I use many of there products on mine and my mums horses our favourite products are the NAF hoof oil which is great for around the shows and lasts ages! I clean all our tack with NAF leather soft soap which is just amazing whenever we buy new tack we always use loads of this to get the leather soft I am also a massive fan of the NAF Instant Magic calmer it is great for evening performances and shows where the atmosphere is "electric" we mainly use the Instant Magic calmer on Royal Doulton aged 20 our home produced large hack (he has a proven recorded in the showing world including 1st RIHS , 2nd HOYS , 1st and champion at equifest and 1st and supreme champion at 15+ national championship the calmer is excellent for him as he can get very excited at equifest in the evening performance I would recommend the Instant Magic calmer it is the best on the market that really does work!

Vanessa Hill with her horses Tosca and Star "I love NAF products as I find they really do work I used the Instant Magic on Tosca, who is a very sharp, spooky mare. Having just brought a new wagon, I knew from past experience she would play up the first few times she went on it until she was used to it, then she loads like a dream. Having booked an indoor school, I gave her the Instant Magic, on the fourth attempt she walked up the ramp, stood like a dream whilst I loaded my other and behaved impeccably with the new wagon, a new rider and in a new school, to say I was impressed is an understatement. I also used it before I clipped her for the first time, and was pleased when she just stood there, when in the past we have had to sedate her." "My other horse Star is a typical thin soled TB. Having gone barefoot with her I use Profeet Rock Hard, and her hooves have become less brittle and according to my farrier are now strong, and she can hack out with only hoof boots on her fore hooves and totally bare at the back."
Denise Coles "I tried NAF Instant Magic syringes and have found that they are amazing! One of my horses is a very stressful traveller and and in the past if you take her out by the time you get anywhere she is so stressed out that it makes it very hard for her to do anything however after giving her an Instant Magic prior to the journey we have gone to a dressage competition where she was fairly chilled and we have managed to take to the beach to ride without it blowing her mind I have also used the Instant Magic on her for clipping to chill her out so from now on they are an item always at hand in the tack room!"
Natalie Hazeltine & Mash The NAF Instant Calmer is absolutely fabulous!! I used it when I took Mash, my 9yr old (sometimes slightly neurotic) thoroughbred ex racer out to a dressage competition. It was only our third time out at a competition and we came 3rd in our 1st prelim test. I would definitely recommend the product!!
Alison Kenward & Neptune Neptune and I will be competing at BD Regionals in Elementary 59 and Elementary Freestyle, Trailblazers 2nd Round and CTR Magazine Elementary Championships. Instant Magic is very helpful to use in situations where Neptune could feel overwhelmed. I trust NAF products to support my horses at home and at competitions and it's important to me that your range does not contravene FEI rules. When Neptune first arrived we used Magic liquid to help him settle into his new home. Magic helps him to concentrate and to feel confident. These two things are linked for Neptune is a sensitive horse, easily distracted and he can then suddenly find himself under pressure, trying to process his feelings about a particularly scary tree or bird whilst listening to his rider! Once relaxed and focussed on his rider he deals with distractions in a calmer frame of mind. The Instant Magic is ideal when he needs a little extra nutritional support to feel focussed and ready for the buzz of a big show or new venue. I regularly feed Respirator Boost which supports his breathing against the challenges of travel and changing seasons. I found the Instant Magic easy to use and effective.
"Reem (pictured) is fed on NAF glucosamine and MSM! It works miracles on his joints and keeps him happy and healthy! We also decided to try the NAF magic syringe on the morning of our show and it worked miracles for Reem! It kept him really calm as he gets extremely excited at shows and he went foot perfect at this show! I 100% recommended using the NAF magic syringe as Itruly believe it works wonders!"
"Phoenix is a 10 year old 16hh TB x Connemara whom I have owned for 3 years, he had done a little of everything when I bought him but was still very green. He's a good all rounder but especially loves his jumping and has been competing at affiliated eventing for the last 2 years currently at 100 level. A year ago my instructor picked up that he was struggling slightly with his off side hock and suggested having his hock injected. However, I decided to go down the supplement route first, and tried NAF Five Star Superflex Senior. I didn't have another session with my instructor for the first 6 weeks of using this product, but when she did see him for the first time after starting Superflex Senior she was extremely impressed... Phoenix was showing no signs of a hock issue at all. I've continued to use this product and Phoenix is going better than ever, with the help of an occasional tube of NAF Instant Magic to settle him before his dressage. I also use Five Star PROFEET powder to improve his feet as he can tend to have brittle feet in the summer. I will be continuing with all 3 of these products as they all seem to be doing their job, I've a happy horse so I'm a happy owner!"
"Bear With Rupert is a 13 year old ex racehorse who has turned his hoof to showing and dressage. Recently since coming back in to work 6 weeks ago after a year off he had been extremely sensitive and quite spooky. After having a chat with Katie at Oakfield’s Open Day, I purchased and tried him on the NAF Magic powdered calmer and Instant Magic Syringes to use as a top up for his show. WOW is all I can say! He has gone from strength to strength and remains focused on the job at hand. This weekend he competed at his first show in over a year and at a Supreme Showdown, he managed to stay cool, calm and collected to win his four classes, 3 section championships and in hand supreme of day 1. I honestly don't believe we would have been able to get the results if it hadn't been for the NAF Magic and the additional NAF Instant Magic. What an amazing product. These will be definitely be having a place in my feed room and stored in my wagon! 5 star review!!"
“Instant Magic has really helped Cracker prepare for his work and it has kept him focussed in the arena. The syringes will be a staple part of our tack box on those all important show days.”
We use NAF Five Star Instant Magic and it definitely works. When we were out and about, she has gone from being stressed and not able to go forward to now being relaxed and able to walk on buckle end!
Instant Magic is the only product that works on our ponies, specifically our Welsh B stallion Mynach Oracle. It keeps him focused and it's completely changed him. He came to me as 'unrideable' and has already attended two shows this year where he has been 1st and Champion. Your product does what it says and I wouldn’t use anything else.
"I use a lot of NAF Products. My favourites are the Silky Mane & Tail Detangler and Plait It Up Spray. Plait It Up helps my plaits stay neat and tidy and create show stopping plaits every-time. The Detangler helps my mane and tail stay knot free as-well as being soft and shiny."
"The Silky Serum works wonders for my boys really thick tail. I don’t brush it every day as I want it to stay nice and thick, but this product really does make it so easy to keep and manage."
“I love the NAF It’s So Silky Serum, I am on my 3rd tube! With all this hair to deal with it’s my favourite product”
“I would be absolutely lost without NAF Silky Serum! Having a traditional cob is hard work and turnout for me is so important as I need to keep the hair tangle free and in good condition. Using this product enables me to leave my boy's mane unplaited, which means less breakage and less mane rubbed out!”
Charlotte Richardson & Danny aka Norway Dance "My favourite NAF products are the Lavender Wash, Paint It Clear and the Shine On Grooming Spray they really do work a treat and at a brilliant price too, I use them all the time at shows and at home! He is a picture of me and Danny (Norway dance) competing in Wales in the Home Pony International qualifying for scope too!"
"I love the Neatsfoot Oil from NAF. I have had a couple of old, dried saddles to restore and this helped to get them to their former glory."
Tara Robinson and Paula Robinson Showing team! We would like to say a huge Thank you to NAF for their amazing products I use many of there products on mine and my mums horses our favourite products are the NAF hoof oil which is great for around the shows and lasts ages! I clean all our tack with NAF leather soft soap which is just amazing whenever we buy new tack we always use loads of this to get the leather soft I am also a massive fan of the NAF Instant Magic calmer it is great for evening performances and shows where the atmosphere is "electric" we mainly use the Instant Magic calmer on Royal Doulton aged 20 our home produced large hack (he has a proven recorded in the showing world including 1st RIHS , 2nd HOYS , 1st and champion at equifest and 1st and supreme champion at 15+ national championship the calmer is excellent for him as he can get very excited at equifest in the evening performance I would recommend the Instant Magic calmer it is the best on the market that really does work! We also use in the pink senior powder for our home produced Fell Hedgethorpe April Morning aged 15 (who also has a proven recored in the showing world including 1st & reserve champion at Ponies UK , 1st NCPA pony of the year show we have had a successful showing season since with many placing at major shows including the Great Yorkshire Show and many more Royal Doulton also gets the pink senior powder It is great to keep veterans moving supple and free I would defiantly recommend NAF products they are great products which really do work!
"I love NAF products. At the moment I am using your Cooling Wash, Warming Wash, Electro Salts, GastriAid, Tack Cleaner and Hoof Moist! NAF Cleanse and Condition and Soft Soap is keeping my tack looking it’s very best!"
I give my goat your linseed oil and her coat is much better for it! Jane Hore
Townend Pippin, aka Jack, a 12 year old Fell pony. Three months prior to his second ever show, Jack was fed NAF Linseed Oil, and prep for the show began with him being bathed in NAF shampoo. Silky Mane & Tail helps tame his wild mane and tail, Oil it Well on his muzzle and eyes, Paint it Black on his hooves and the final touch of Razzle Dazzle them all over makes Townend Pippin ready for the ring. As the light caught his coat he shone like his personality. He was a total gentlemen and foot perfect. Placing a respectable 2nd in his class, he earned happy smiles all round. The next step is to get him shiny enough to visit HRH The Queen as 90 Fell ponies provide a guard of honour at Windsor Castle in celebration of the Queen's 90th Birthday.
"I feed my pony Liquid Electro Lytes in the summer which I feel really helps with his performance! Without them he feels sluggish and tires easily. NAF Liquid Electro Lytes help him to perform to the best of his abilities by replenishing the essential salts which are lost through sweat."
Ted used to scratch and bite at his skin terribly, you could hear his teeth snapping together. I was advised to get some shampoo from the vet as his previous owners had used this on him, unfortunately this had no effect. He saw a specialist and we carried out an allergy test. Ted started a special veterinary treatment along with Love the Skin He’s In Skin Supplement and Skin Salve, over six weeks he was so much better that he was able to be turned out without rugs, whereas in the past he has been covered day/night. Ted now continues with Love The Skin He’s In D-Itch Supplement and minimal amounts of Skin Salve just the occasional blob here and there. Teresa Harris
"I approached NAF and asked if they sold anything that would help control the sweet itch on my horse's mane before it got too bad, they kindly emailed me recommendations and sent a pot of their "LTSHI Skin" salve. I applied every morning for a week and never looked back, went out and bought a larger pot and now using every other day to maintain. An amazing product.
The picture I've attached is with your product applied, as u can see no soreness or bald patches."
"We have been using NAF skin products especially the Wash and the Salve with amazing results. Our 2 youngsters Calcourt Voltage and Godrics Dionysus had a lot of raised bumps this winter and after trying many potions and lotions we are utterly amazed by the results of the NAF products."
"I've used the Skin Wash previously but had forgotten just how good it is. Roz is a rescue who had lice, bald patches all over, was very itchy and in poor condition. In under a month she looks like a completely different horse. Even our vet couldn't believe the improvement."
Max is a 14 year old Blue Skewbald Gelding, he has pink skin and is very sensitive. Being an Irish Draught cross he is clipped all year round as he gets too hot for the work that he does. We find bathing him down after clipping with Love the SKIN he’s In Wash is brilliant, it keeps his skin in great condition and lovely and clean. We also use Silky Mane and Tail Spray again because we find this product very gentle for his skin. Teresa Tickle
“I started using NAF Love the Skin He’s In Wash on a new horse I bought about 12 months ago. He had very sensitive, scurfy, lumpy, dry skin. In fact when I had him vetted the vet advised I didn’t buy him as in her opinion ‘his skin condition would cause more problems in the future’, he was also difficult to clip due to his sensitivity. I started using NAF Love The Skin Wash on him firstly every day after exercise and then diluted in water whenever he was washed off, but especially after work. His skin has improved beyond recognition, the bumps have disappeared and he is MUCH less sensitive, to the degree where he is now so much easier to clip. From a horse that had the dullest coat in the yard he now shines as much as my boots!” Paul Scott
“Rinwood Cooley has had dreadful skin ever since I bought him and the only way to keep his skin under control is by feeding him Love the Skin he’s In Supplement and rinsing him in the Love the Skin He’s In Wash every time I ride him. He’s now got a fabulous shine on his coat and he’s been double clear every time out this year!”
I would just like to express my extreme satisfaction with your new “Love The Skin He’s In” range. My horse has very sensitive skin and your products have helped us no end on a daily basis. The wash and supplement has improved her skin and reduced the likelihood of the issues occurring. She is no longer as itchy and scabby and is much happier. Thank you so much! Rachel O’Shea
I have never in my life been so excited about hot clothing!! I diluted one capful with 5 litres of hot water, dunked in my NAF towel, wrung it out and worked it into the coat in circular motions. The cloth is luxurious, much nicer than the old flannel I normally use and a great size, it's much bigger than I expected, I worked this softly into Oscar's coat and it bought out all the grease, clipper oil and loose hairs perfectly, leaving him sparklingly clean! Jessica and Oscar
I use LTSHI SKIN Wash on my horse after clipping and at least twice a month for his baths. Before using this product his skin would often get bumpy but this doesn’t occur since using the Wash. He also loves the red cloths that come with your Skin Wash; before we go in to do his test we have to use it to wipe the sweat from around his ears and eyes. Georgia Herbert
I can't thank NAF enough; we have finally found a product that works on my dressage horses skin! Zous has always struggled with very sensitive skin which is not easy to deal with. He is my competition horse so keeping his skin and coat looking healthy and glossy is a vital part to our performance. Bath time and washing off was always a big worry as we never knew when he would flare up in a rash or bumps; but now with NAFs skin wash we can clean his coat everyday after exercise and never have to worry about any nasty flare ups. Now he just sparkles in front of the judges! Vikki Pengilly and Zous
Safia Woodward with Moonbeg Boy were 3rd in the P.C Championship Open Show Jumping and also competed in the PC Open Eventing Championships. “As a typical sensitive ginger Moonbeg Boy loves your Love The Skin He’s In, uses NAF Five Star Respirator boost all summer and also a bit NAF Five Star Magic Calmer for his dressage!”
Annabel Carthy & Henry My favourite product is Love The Skin he's In. It's so important to make sure your horse is sweat free and clean after work, and Love the Skin he's In ensures they will not have any irritation or get sores next time you ride as any dirt has been lifted. It is also very useful to use after my horse, Henry, has been clipped. Any small hairs that have not been brushed off are quickly removed by the deep cleansing cloth included, and the skin is rehydrated by the Aloe Vera it contains. This means the coat is left shiny and fresh, looking fantastic! Henry has sensitive skin so Love the Skin he's In is a great product to use, as I can rely on it not to create any lumps or bumps after use. It comes in a handy bottle so I can take it to events with me, as well as keep it in my buckets at home, ready to use every day!
Sarah Penney with Soli and Harry. I use your products on a daily basis both at the stables and whilst I'm out competing. My favourite product currently is 'NAF Love the skin he's in Wash' as it smells absolutely amazing and I always use it after clipping. Image Credit: Graham Penney
"This is Saffie she is a 16 year old welsh x warmblood mare who I have owned for the last 10 years. We absolutely love your products and use a wide range of them on a daily basis. Our favourites have to be the Superflex Senior which keeps Saffie supple and sound but we absolutely adore the love the skin he’s in wash. It’s great to use after clipping but also for wiping her over after riding to remove any sweat and grease using the cleansing cloth. The shine and softness she is left with after using your products is amazing! Thankyou for keeping my horse looking and feeling so great! We couldn’t do it without you!"
"We live in Scotland and at this time of year it's far too cold to get hosed down after work so after a workout nothing beats a hot cloth rub down with NAF Love the Skin. It ensures all sweat and grease is removed and leaves Gem shiny, clean and comfortable. I feel confident knowing her skin is free from irritation and she won't be cold and wet in her stable."
"Attached are a few pics of Moon having his spring shower with the love the skin he's in. It cleaned his grease perfectly and the citronella smell is perfect for the flies that are about this hot Bank Holiday! I've also used it as a hot towel wash when he's clipped and his coat is very shiny going into spring!"
"Our favourite NAF product would definitely be the Love the SKIN he’s in Skin Wash. The skin wash is great for my horse, he is often itchy and has very sensitive skin so I find this is great to hot cloth him with and wash him down after exercise."
"Our favourite NAF products would have to be the Love the SKIN hes in Skin Wash, NAF off Extra Effect fly repellent and the Brighter Than White. The skin wash is great for my horses as they have very sensitive skin so, I try and use this wash daily after they have been exercised. The Brighter Than White powder is great for whitening their legs the day before the competition; it's so easy to use and is very effective."
"Just wanted to say just how amazing & quick working NAF Skin Wash really is I've tried hibiscrub, tea tree shampoos, hot oil baths and nothing has come close to the results I've got with the skin wash. Bear is a really itchy horse and has really bad greasy, flakey skin, especially after clipping and hogging. Bear also suffers with itchy legs ends up making himself bleed (he hadn't got mites, he's a hotcoblet and produces a lot of grease under his feathers. It is difficult to clip him as he has to be heavy sedated so I'm so pleased to find a wash to keep him comfortable and not itchy until I can clip him again). Just after one hot wash with the NAF towel his skin is silky, no flakes, glossy coat and his scabs have dried up and aren't greasy ... Bear hadn't been seen once itching and going mad at his body and legs since applying. It's great that there is no need to rise off and great after long sweaty ride in winter when it's to cold to bath."

"LTSHI Wash is perfect for Hugo as it’s gentle and soothing on his skin. I use it as a hot wash to remove the grease from his coat and it brings back the shine. Love this product!"
“We absolutely adore the Love The Skin He’s In Wash. It’s great to use after clipping but also for wiping her over after riding to remove any sweat and grease using the cleansing cloth. The shine and softness she is left with after using your products is amazing! Thank you for keeping my horse looking and feeling so great!”
Assistant Trainer at Micky Hammonds
"We love the NAF Love the Skin he’s in Skin Wash. We had a few young horses that had dry skin from sweating and since using this product, their skin is gleaming."
"We have been using NAF skin products especially the Wash and the Salve with amazing results. Our 2 youngsters Calcourt Voltage and Godrics Dionysus had a lot of raised bumps this winter and after trying many potions and lotions we are utterly amazed by the results of the NAF products."
“My horse Frankie is a 15 year old Connie who I hack and do Dressage with and my daughter Celia events him a few times in the season. Frankie is an itchy horse with sensitive skin, I have used NAF Skin Wash with much success after clipping and also if he’s sweated a lot. Being sensitive he doesn’t react and it leaves his coat feeling lovely!“
“We love using NAF Skin Wash after clipping and to keep their coats looking great from any grease and dirty. We also love Silky Mane and Tail D-Tangler in our daily grooming routine to keep the manes and tails looking fabulous!”
We are using M Power on horses of all levels and are really pleased with the initial results, it has really helped to boost their muscle development. - Team Eilberg
Jo has been trying to qualify for HOYS but felt her mare Evie was lacking presence and muscle condition. Says Jo "I was looking for something that wouldn't send her crazy but would add bulk and top line as she looked a little lean. Following NAF's Area Sales Manager Rachael's advice I simply added MPower to her diet. After just 3 weeks I had seen an improvement not only in muscle condition but coat and performance, resulting in a win at the Search for a Star Working Hunter Qualifier, qualifying for HOYS." Jo Bradley
Janice Cockley-Adams-British Team Endurance Rider of Roxane du Bout du Monde. Says Janice “I have been doing endurance successfully for 22 years now and have 2 international FEI horses, 2 youngsters and my ex-international who is now 24. I use NAF products to support the health and fitness training of my horses in the preparation needed to compete. I totally believe they play a valued part in my horses wellbeing”
"Here is 18 yr old Diamond Kitt.
We bought him as 3yr old direct from the breeder in Marchington Derby, who also bred Matthew Sampson’s 2 times Hickstead Speed Derby winner Topflight True Carlo!
Kitt has always been a super star and like a good wine seems to get better with age.
He competes in everything from showing, working hunter, SJ & Team Chasing and is kept fit by working in our riding school. He however is at his happiest on the hunting field whether it be side-saddle or astride can be seen near the front of the field most weeks with The Readyfield Bloodhounds flying over anything he’s pointed at. Without doubt he’s helped to stay in tip top condition and feel at his best thanks to his favourite NAF Supplements. Kitt has been having both Superflex Senior and M-Power for the last two seasons and feels fitter and better than ever always has a spring in his step and holds his condition better throughout the hunt season."
"Just coming to the end of 30 days of NAF M Power. I’ve attached the before and after pics. I definitely see a difference!"
"I have been using NAF M Power on my 6 year old mare for about 2 months. I decided to give the supplement a go after she had issues with weight loss, her energy and condition. She is now blossoming and I think this supplement has helped a lot!”
"M Power is the best product among muscle supplements! I use vitamin E + Selenium for all horses. Then you have the hoof supplements. In short, all great! M Power is all time favourite!”
"I started feeding Five Star Metazone about three weeks ago and I’m absolutely overwhelmed! Combined with Five Star Superflex Senior, my 18 year old dressage horse Gracjano is so smooth and flexible in his joints and very relaxed in the muscles, alongside Five Star M Power. I cannot be more satisfied with the results! Metazone has clearly done an amazing job alongside the other two supplements he’s currently on. Thank you NAF for making my horse feel young and flexible!"
Catch Fantastic (Honey) ridden by Camilla Walton Before: Millie came to talk to us on our stand at the BRC Festival of the Horse. Her daughters horse Catch Fantastic was due to compete in the Show Hunter Ponies and she was looking to try a syringe of Instant Magic. After: Says Millie "I gave Honey a syringe an hour and a half before her class and her performance improved considerably. Camilla and Honey went on to win the Show Hunter Pony Championship. We have continued using Magic to great effect and Honey no longer spooks on hacks. Honey really is a different horse!"
It's very difficult to choose my favourite NAF product but I would have to say 'Magic'. I feed it to my event horses Watergate Bay and Star Fighter. Watergate Bay is an ex-racehorse and I find the Magic powder really helps with his concentration and focus both at home and out at competitions. I can certainly tell when he has not had it for a while.
I LOVE Magic so much because; it's so easy to use - the ingredients are natural, the price is great and it really really does work. I've always been sceptical of "calmers" but for competitions and loading, the syringes are great. Magic and the no-rinse washes are my FAVOURITE. NAF is my first choice for everything.
I have recently started feeding Magic and wanted to let you know that I am delighted with it. I initially began using it on a mare who was returning to work after having two foals. She is an anxious mare and after her having a 'moment' when being ridden I decided to put her on Magic. I hoped that it would help her to relax and reach her potential and it's working a treat. It was working so well I decided to put my other competition mare on it as well. We had been scoring consistently from high 60%'s to low 70%'s this winter in Dressage competitions but I had always felt that she was below her potential and competing seemed to leave her very tired. Within a month our scores went up 5-7% and she is much more rideable and relax and focused in competition. I am truly delighted with the product. I will be introducing it to my youngsters shortly to help them when entering the show ring this spring. Many thanks from a very grateful competitor Thomasina o' Reilly
I feed Harry Magic as he is stabled 24/7 due to having no turnout and also being out of work until recently following metabolic and hoof issues. I have to say I was sceptical about this product and wasn't sure if it would work knowing how anxious Harry can get, but he is now a different, lovely to handle, calm natured horse that I have to admit has never been in the past! I am very, very happy with his attitude and would highly recommend this product, and will continue to use it. Tamara Atkinson
I currently use (a lot of!) Magic for my very highly strung 25 year old Arab cross called Duchess. Duchess was foaled at our farm by her mum Lady, a lovely Cremello that my nan had bought. From a young age we realised that Duchess was a very highly strung, twitchy mare! If she saw anything in the distance her head would be up in the clouds along with her tail and a monsterous snorting session! Gotta love the Arab in her! She's been on Magic for a while now and it's managed (I couldn't believe my eyes!) to calm her down considerably and now I don't fear for my life when I'm riding her! She's a funny old bag but I love her dearly! We have a show this Sunday at Stretcholt Equestrian where we will be doing mainly veteran classes. This will be her second show ever, she's going to be a challenge because of her hot head but she will have an Instant Magic the night before and in the morning to take the edge off of her! She's very pretty and she knows it!! Thank you for making your product, it's very useful for us! Caroline Wilkins
Phoenix is holding his weight now because the Magic has taken the edge off him stressing which causes him to drop weight quickly. He has calmed down in some of his mannerisms being on the calmer and the Five Star Optimum has really improved his overall body condition and coat shine. Angela & Phoenix
Safia Woodward with Moonbeg Boy were 3rd in the P.C Championship Open Show Jumping and also competed in the PC Open Eventing Championships. "As a typical sensitive ginger Moonbeg Boy loves your Love The Skin He's In, uses NAF Five Star Respirator boost all summer and also a bit NAF Five Star Magic Calmer for his dressage!"
One of my favourite NAF products is NAF Five Star PROFEET because it keeps my horse's feet in the best condition to perform at his best, and NAF Five Star Magic enables me to have my horse's full concentration when performing at his peak.
"The NAF Five Star Magic Calmer has changed my life. When taking my horse to events he would get so wound up and excited that I would struggle to control him and get round a course. However, since using Magic he concentrates on what we are doing and is much more controllable. A calmer I would recommend to anyone!"
"We used Magic on my daughters first ridden show pony, who can be anxious and highly strung... the results were fantastic. He was so soft and responsive after using this product, I’ll definitely be using it again. Thanks so much!"
"Here is a picture of Ruby enjoying the sunshine. I am so happy with her after putting her on the NAF Five Star Magic calmer. Although she is not a 'hot' horse, she can be a worrier but since she has been on Magic she’s put on so much condition and generally seems much more content. Again, thank you for a great product!"
"I've had Tiz a year now and when I first got him he used to sweat up and get anxious every time we loaded him in the lorry. That didn't give my instructors or other people a good impression since Tiz has not long been out of point-to-point racing. After doing research, it came to my knowledge that the magnesium in NAF's Magic could help with Tiz's problems. Since then I have fed it to him twice a day and since the start he hasn't sweated up in the lorry and can now stand tied up to the lorry at an event half asleep. I've fed both the liquid and the powder and even for a fussy eater like Tiz he hasn't ever failed to eat it. I 100% recommend this product to anyone that feels like they need to get rid of their horses anxiety to unlock their full potential."
"After receiving the Five star Magic I had a lesson with Glenys Hemming... see pic.
The weekend after my lesson Val was second with an amazing score of 73.75 % out of 45 other horses at the BRC Intermediate Area qualifiers! Qualifying for the National Championships! So next weekend Val and Myself are heading to Bury Farm EC in Buckinghamshire for the champs!
For a 'dangerous' horse who 'should be dead' this is something of an amazing story! Thank you so much for the prize!"
"Magic has been a complete game changer for us! Valentino is quite well known for being a little over enthusiastic about his jumping, and generally just a stressy little man. Since he has been on Magic, he seems to have a whole new outlook on life! It’s almost as though Magic is a 'horsey anti-depressant' for him - he seems to be so much happier in himself and he finally seems to be able to enjoy life, it's such a lovely feeling to see him happy! To top it off, he's so much more rideable - bring on the eventing season!"
"I have just started my 2nd tub of NAF Five Star Magic as I was delighted with the results. My horse Monty has done 2 shows since starting the calmer that I won and definitely was much more settled and focused on the job in hand, gaining his qualifying scores for the winter finals in April in medium level. I'm so looking forward to that and we also compete in para dressage at grade V so really important he is settled and calm."
"Just wanted to say that as a relatively new return to rider (at 57) I bought my horse 3 years ago. He's 23 years old and can be very spooky. It scared me, and I found lots of reasons not to ride. I decided to try a calmer and chose Magic for him. Since he has been on it, we go out hacking twice a week weather permitting, and have lots of fun. We have both benefitted from the calmer, me definitely knowing he is calmer makes me calmer which equals a good calm ride. Thank you and I promote your calmer to anyone and everyone."
"GastriAid has made my horse maintain comfort and we haven’t seen any reoccurrence of the gastric discomfort he had previously had. Magic has focused my horse and he seems a lot calmer not kicking out at other horses or rearing under saddle, fantastic product!"
"My horse Harvey, who is a large breed hackney, has a very nervous disposition suffering from separation anxiety, spookiness and is also very sensitive. He was very frightened of other animals especially cows and sheep and would not settle in his stable when brought up from the field away from his friends. Naf recommended trying him on the Magic supplement, confident that it would help. I started to see results very quickly even during the loading dose period and still very pleased with the continued use of this product.
It has helped Harvey to cope much better with so many different situations we have previously struggled with. Hacking out by ourselves wasn’t an enjoyable experience due to him always looking for the next thing to spook at, this could lead him to spinning round and he had actually bolted off with me on a couple of occasions. Since using Magic, although still a little spooky, it does not result in the sheer panic that he used to have and then the wanting to rush back home. Travelling in the trailer he would not just sweat but foam up and literally have a river pouring underneath him, now he still sweats but again nowhere near to the extreme. If a horse was brought in from the field next to him, even though other horses were still nearby, he would gallop around the field neighing. Now he will walk up to the gate to see the passing horse but then continue with his grazing. It’s also so nice to be able to enjoy our time together especially when grooming.
This product has helped Harvey to focus and settle so that we have been able to progress with our training and bonding, we still have a way to go but this has played a major part into getting us where we are with our relationship today. I will definitely recommend this product for anyone else facing similar issues."
"We have been using NAF Magic products for over 5 years now. We find that using Magic is extremely useful for nervy or spooky horses, as it helps to relax them without altering their personality. With our competition horses, we find that we are able to keep their energy levels high but also maintain full concentration, which allows our horses to perform at the best level possible at all times."
"My boy has been on NAF Magic for over 10 years now and it has been the only thing that has been able to keep him sane especially during the spring when his hormones are wild (due to being a rig) it has been a godsend!"
"Bear With Rupert is a 13 year old ex racehorse who has turned his hoof to showing and dressage. Recently since coming back in to work 6 weeks ago after a year off he had been extremely sensitive and quite spooky. After having a chat with Katie at Oakfield’s Open Day, I purchased and tried him on the NAF Magic powdered calmer and Instant Magic Syringes to use as a top up for his show. WOW is all I can say! He has gone from strength to strength and remains focused on the job at hand. This weekend he competed at his first show in over a year and at a Supreme Showdown, he managed to stay cool, calm and collected to win his four classes, 3 section championships and in hand supreme of day 1. I honestly don't believe we would have been able to get the results if it hadn't been for the NAF Magic and the additional NAF Instant Magic. What an amazing product. These will be definitely be having a place in my feed room and stored in my wagon! 5 star review!!"
"Thank you for your brilliant product, Instant Magic. Having recently purchased a lovely young sports horse, I was looking forward to training and competing her, hopefully working toward a high level, however she had some other plans. The mare became worse and worse travelling, becoming increasingly stressed to the point at which she was a danger to us and herself. We were on the verge of deciding not to take her out, which would have been devastating given her potential. We decided as a last ditch effort to try your calmer, and it worked wonders. She was much calmer on the box, eating and not sweating up, and still a dream under saddle. We couldn’t be more pleased. This week we took her to her second ever xc schooling, and for a flat lesson with Olympic rider Andrew Bennie. The trips were finally made relaxing and enjoyable thanks to your product. We are thrilled that we will be able to take her out and have booked her first events. Hopefully if she continues like she is we will be doing internationals by the end of next season. This winter we plan on working up to jumping some fox hunters. As a non professional with only a couple of horses it would have been awful to have such an amazing horse that we couldn’t travel. Thanks so much for helping, and giving us the opportunity to show how good we can be. Many thanks, Alfie."
“We use NAF Five Star Magic when breaking and schooling the youngsters because we find it keeps the mind focused on learning.”
"Chance is a highly intelligent mare and was enjoying a variety of activities from schooling, to jumping and hacking. During lockdown, we were only able to hack out locally and this left Chance feeling frustrated and tense. With the help of Magic, the tension has been relieved without her personality being hindered. I cannot recommend this product enough."
Magic has made a HUGE difference to Griffin’s mental state, he’s definitely a lot calmer now! We’ve hit the 90cm milestone, which considering a few weeks ago we were only able to lunge due to his behaviour, is amazing. I’m so proud of him.
"We have owned Cathedine Professor since a year old and he can be a very sensitive soul. We tried many calming supplements and now we use Magic and the results are amazing. He is so much more relaxed & confident."
"Magic has helped my ride Gabby (owned by Drewlor Equine) focus, relax and excel in the arena. Like many horses, show days are very exciting for her, but her anxiety and spooky tendencies can sometimes creep in whilst in the arena. Since using Magic, show days have become a breeze for her. No spookiness, no anxiety, no tension, just a super talented mare loving every minute of being in the arena. I could not recommend it enough for any green, sharp or spooky horses that just need that anxious edge taking off and a helping hand relaxing into their work."
"I just wanted to say how amazing your Magic is! Ollie isn’t strong but he gets so anxious and frightened. Since using Magic, he is much more relaxed and now enjoys himself. We took Ollie off Magic momentarily and his anxiety came back because he was scared and overthinking everything. Therefore, we know that your product is the reason for him performing much better and now that he is back on it, he is so much happier. It’s crazy how much of a difference it has made, he truly is like a new horse! So thank you very much for your amazing product, I would 100% recommend it to everyone."
"My yearling Hugo loves this supplement. He has super strong hooves and is growing and maturing nicely. It’s good to know that he is getting all the nutrition he needs to grow into a happy healthy horse."
"At BD Area Festival we finished 3rd in Prelim Silver, was over the moon, during training sessions at the competition venue she was difficult. At Hopes first ever SJ comp with the help from Magic, we finished on DC & 3rd Magic helps her anxiety levels when out."
"All I can say is WOW.... I've had my beautiful Welsh D on Magic for a month. I hadn't ridden her since the end of April due to work commitments and the constant battle of her spooking and separation anxiety - what totally different pony. Thank you!"
"Magic! Literally says what it is on the label. Boris went from being strong and excitable to the calmest horse ever. It hasn't taken away his personality at all but it has made him much more relaxed and a more enjoyable horse to ride."
Since putting Boss on NAF’s Five Star Magic, he has become a completely different horse! Before, he was a very tense and spooky horse in hand and under saddle. Now he is more willing to work, calmer in hand and under saddle, more confident in trying new things and going to new places and is more settled whilst turned out! Couldn’t recommend this product enough!
"I just wanted to show my appreciation for NAF Five Star Magic. I?ve tried to take my horse off of it twice now to see what difference it made and it?s safe to say I will never try taking him off of it again. To find a calmer that doesn?t take energy away but improves focus and ?tunnel vision? is almost impossible! Fergus is quite spooky, however, when he is on Magic the difference is insane! He is so focused on his work. It is so important for me to keep him calm and stress free. I use all of your products for his supplements and they are second to none. Thank you for creating such fantastic products!"
“I have been given the honour of teaching the legendary racehorse Frodon that there’s still fun to be had off the track. Frodon was known in training to be a “bit of a lad”! I TOTALLY understand this now, he really is a monkey and this didn’t help when teaching him some form of flatwork. Having heard about NAF Five Star Magic and the success it has provided so many I thought I’d give it a go. What a different horse I have, he can now focus and concentrate on the task In hand instead of being the class clown. I am now more confident that we could make it to Bath and West show!”
“Rocky is a 12 year old Anglo European Sports Horse who in recent years has turned his hoof to British Dressage having previously evented. He can find competitions quite exciting, so we use NAF Five Star Magic Powder to help him keep his concentration levels without affecting his performance. Magic also promotes muscle relaxation helping him feel more supple and attentive in ridden work. Having qualified for the Nationals on two occasions, Rocky is now successfully competing at Medium with the aim to do his first Advanced Medium by the Summer - we wouldn’t be where we are today without the help of Magic!” Photo credit Brian Molcher Photos
“My mare used to get very uncomfortable while in season and she would become stressy in her stable. We tried her on NAF Five Star Oestress and it worked so quickly, she was like a new pony, very content and happy. We also use NAF Five Star Magic calmer on a maintenance dose in winter because she can get a bit fiery. It gives my mum peace of mind and allows me to hack on my own because Layla used to be a very anxious pony. Thank you NAF!”
“My favourite NAF product is Magic, I have a really hot warmblood called George and it helps to take the edge off him.”
I would like to express how much of a godsend Magic is. Since purchasing my new mare Molly I've fed Magic and oh my what a difference I've seen. She's a dream, Magic has helped to keep Molly calm during her transition period from her previous home to mine. I cannot fault Magic, it's been fantastic during Molly's on-going "settling in" period. I've attached some photos of us both during our first ride together. Experiencing first hand that NAF products are of the highest quality my mind is made up that I'll most definitely be purchasing NAF supplements for her in future. Lois Downes
I first decided to try Magic nearly 5 years ago after buying my lovely ex-racehorse, who was then a 6 year old. She is eager to please but can get quite buzzy in her mind when trying new things. She was a little tricky to school in the early days of training as she'd get frustrated if she was finding something difficult. Within the first few weeks of feeding Magic she was more settled and found it easier to concentrate. Hacking alone was also a tense affair which was more to do with confidence. With the help of Magic and time and patience she now hacks alone and in company totally relaxed. We compete in Novice Dressage and have started jumping, for shows I have a tube of Instant Magic to hand in the trailer just in case she arrives fresh. I really believe it helps keep her calm and I would have struggled to produce her to where she is today without it. Amy and Cantique
"Merrylegs is so mellow on Magic!"
"I use lots of NAF products, I love the smell of your leather Soft soap, it's the only reason my Mum lets me clean my dirty tack in the kitchen! My favourite product is your Magic liquid Calmer, it really is magic! My pony now listens to me when we go on exciting beach rides and XC.
Magic Calmer also really helps my sister's horse to relax and load! He didn't load for over a year without rearing and kicking the trailer, she now gives him calmer in the run-up to a show and he is much happier at loading. We both love it!We also use your purple spray a lot!!Here is a picture of me & my beautiful 14.2hh Quantocks pony, Shady, at a Cross Country Show.
I have also added a photo of my sister, Sophie, with her 16.3hh TB Cross horse, Dennis, at a Dressage show.Both had Magic before the show!!

I started feeding Mare, Foal & Youngstock to our brood mare and have kept Kite (her foal) on it ever since. He was a big foal and I could tell then that he would be tall (his mother was 17hh). I knew how important it was to make sure he had the correct nutrients to help keep his bones and joints strong whilst growing evenly. He now stands at 16.3hh and is three years old. Kite is strong, straight limbed and healthy and has grown at a steady rate. He is just at the start of his training to become (fingers crossed) a NH racehorse. I highly recommend to anyone breeding horses or with youngstock to make sure that Mare, Foal & Youngstock is on their everyday essential list to feed. Laragh Cresswell
I would just like to praise the NAF Mare, Foal & Youngstock Supplement for the condition kept by my little girl Maggie. She is soon to become a yearling and is a Maltese thoroughbred with some Arab blood passed on from her mum Nina. Christina (from Malta)
"My yearling Hugo loves this supplement. He has super strong hooves and is growing and maturing nicely. It’s good to know that he is getting all the nutrition he needs to grow into a happy healthy horse."
"NAF’s Five Star Metazone is a staple of my feed room. During the event season, when my horses are competing and training hard, as well as travelling many hours in the lorry, I have found that with Metazone, they come out of an event or a training session feeling much fresher and bounce back much quicker than before. I feed this to all of my horses, alongside NAF Superflex for joint flexibility, and they really do feel amazing."
"At the ripe old age of 23, my retired dressage horse Alfstead (Ted to his friends) is still full of life and energy and loves to have a gentle work out in the school a couple of times a week alongside strolling around the countryside with his apprentice Harley by his side. I noticed that he was beginning to come out of his stable a little more tight and stiff in the mornings and that whilst his enthusiasm hadn't waned he was certainly feeling a bit more 'old'. I jumped at the chance to try NAF's Five Star Metazone which is formulated to help in these situations and I have been thrilled with the results. Ted seems to have shed years and is back to his younger self - he comes out of his stable with minimal signs of stiffness now and positively bounces into the school and marches down the road. I keep him on the maintenance dose of the product and feed it daily. I would recommend this product to anyone in a similar situation - it is just great to see Ted enjoying his golden years again."
"After having trialled NAF’s Five Star Metazone over the past couple of years, I have found it to be an essential aid in keeping Carl and Charlotte’s horses in peak condition. Metazone has been especially beneficial for recovery after a busy competition as well as keeping the horses feeling their best with the huge amount of travelling they do. In 2021, we of course had the long trip to Tokyo and just four weeks later, we had to be ready for another big Championship in Germany. I fed Metazone prior to travelling whilst the horses were in quarantine and also on the journey. It comes in liquid, powder and syringe form which is extremely useful depending on what your horse prefers and I found the liquid and syringe easy to feed when in transit. With the help of Metazone, the horses were able to travel the world and perform at their peak."
"As I moved my event horse further up the levels and his level of jumping effort increased, I started feeding NAF Five Star Metazone daily with a view to combating stiffness after work. I have been amazed by the results, with the horse coming out fresh and enthusiastic in his work as well as a notable improvement in producing clear rounds at competitions."
"NAF Five Star Metazone is one of our essential products at Heathcroft Farm. We tend to feed it predominantly at shows and during long strenuous journeys as we find it helps the horses muscles to relax, recover and regain maximum movement. This is vital to us all as it means that the horses are able to perform to the best of their abilities."
"We have been feeding NAF’s Five Star Metazone for a couple of years now. We started feeding it to Sintano before he flew out to Tokyo and we were delighted with how well he coped with the journey and his workload. We fed the product at the recommended peak feeding rate between Tokyo and the European Championships back in 2021 and Metazone helped Sintano to maintain condition and energy levels. Knowing that it has been formulated to be competition safe is always reassuring too. Subsequently, we now feed Metazone to all of our horses who are working, training and competing hard; reducing the dose to maintenance if they are resting and increasing it again as the workload increases. In particular, we are using the product for Goldstrike who Gareth is going to be campaigning at Grand Prix this year, for Wex, Ruby's new Young Rider horse and of course for our star Briolinca who performed so well at the London International Horse Show recently. Metazone is a wonderful product that we would not want to be without and it definitely keeps our horses ‘in the zone’."
"As the competition season becomes more and more intense, the fitness and wellbeing of the horses after each competition has never been as important. With quick turnarounds from one show to the next, NAF Five Star Metazone has been effective and influential in making sure each of my horses have managed to stay feeling as fit and well as possible. This has helped us to continue to improve their results as the seasons go on."
"April has been the most wonderful all-rounder all her life and now at 29 years of age she is determined to continue to be an active member of the equine team - retirement is definitely not for her. She loves her gentle hacks with her friends two or three times a week but we began to notice that she was getting a little stiffer and just finding things a little more difficult, up and down hills for example. We put her on a trial of NAF’s Five Star Metazone and almost immediately noticed that she was more comfortable. The product was palatable and easy to feed and we have now dropped her down to maintenance rate which we feed daily. She is so happy and well and walks out with a spring in her step now. We simply would not want to be without Metazone."
"Metazone has made a huge difference to my pony. He’s literally gone from hardly moving in his stable to bouncing off the walls!"
"Chance is the pony of a lifetime and at 17 years old he had started to show signs of ageing and slowing down a little. We tried him on Five Star Metazone and the difference has been remarkable! After three weeks on Metazone he is flying around a course of fences like he’s half his age. He has a spring in his stride again and we are really looking forward to an action packed summer of Pony Club, getting out competing and having fun with his new enthusiasm for life!"
"Since using Five Star Metazone Pie is moving well in his paces and we haven’t seen any puffiness in his legs. Now at 15 years old we really want to keep him in tip top condition and we feel that this has been great for him."
"OMG, I have my horse back! Five Star Metazone has made a huge difference to her! She strides out, asks for trot and is her old bouncy self! I thought it was just me but my farrier commented this morning that she is not fidgety on her fronts with no shoes when he is trimming her hinds. I even rode her after the farrier, which I never do; it’s amazing! Lovely to have my T bird back!"
"I’m two years into the ownership of 18 year-old ISH Ellie. Both this and last April proved trying as her seasons kicked in and she was displaying mareish tendencies! I was on the verge of calling a vet as her behaviour was so out of character, but not entirely convinced that I wasn’t just being a neurotic owner I thought I would give new NAF Five Star Metazone a go first. By day three my horse was back! Her coat and breathing are great, she is relaxed, happy, loose, supple, sound and rideable. I think Metazone is the backup extra support I’ve needed without realising it."
"The results have been absolutely amazing on Metazone Powder for my horse after just the first tub. Here's a photo of him winning his elementary class at the weekend, he honestly hasn't moved better since being in the Metazone; I've now dropped the BozMerix from his diet."
NAF Five Star Metazone has given twenty-one year old Treacle a new lease of life. I highly recommend this product.
”NAF Five Star Metazone has been the addition to Hugo's feeding regime that I didn’t know he needed! At maintenance levels, it supports him in his usual training and everyday life but it really comes into its own when we are in peak competition conditions and staying away - he looks a million dollars and feels like a bouncy rubber ball to ride! His skin is stunning, his coat is super shiny and he really is feeling at the top of his game! It smells fabulous his and he always polishes it off. Metazone has transformed this horse so much so that I’ve decided to try the liquid next and subsequently ordered 5L. We will now keep him on it and, most importantly, keep him in the Metazone!”

”Since using Metazone, our pony Milligan has significantly improved in his way of going, his coat is looking fabulous and he really looks fantastic for his age - he's 18 years young. With a combination of ridden work, the water treadmill at HLS Equine Therapy and Metazone added to his daily feeds, Milligan has gone from a less than cooperative pony to finishing third at Haydock Park in the pony racing and winning best turned out! We really couldn’t be happier and we have started our other pony on Metazone who has also shown a great change in her coat in less than a week! I literally tell anyone who will listen just how fab Metazone is.”
“My horse Frank has been eating Metazone Powder with no fuss, but then it does smell good! Since feeding Metazone, his coat has looked amazing, there’s definitely some extra shine. But most importantly, he’s a big horse and he hasn’t got the best joints. Since feeding Metazone I have seen an improvement; he feels looser and softer in his work and I think Metazone is helping him in his maturing years.”

"My horse had recently endured a busy training and competition schedule which took a lot out of her. I was therefore very grateful to be offered the chance to trial Metazone. This has supported my horse's recovery and helped to optimise her condition and energy levels. I now feed this as a short term boost after travelling and competing. I also feed Superflex Senior, which is another NAF product that we couldn’t do without!"
Sam is 19 this year and has done absolutely everything I could have wanted in the 9 years that I’ve owned him. He’s been round the BC100 Champs at Badminton, competed at all the BRC champs and has taken me around BE Novice. A couple of years ago he was diagnosed with front foot issues, but was far from wanting a quieter life. He was put on Danilon to support him but unfortunately this meant he wouldn’t be able to carry on competing BE & BRC. I can honestly say Metazone has given him a new lease of life. He’s now out competing and we’ve qualified for every BRC winter champs this year and he has excelled at each one including placing 2nd at the Arena Eventing champs, 4th at the Novice SJ champs & a team 5th at the recent combined champs. I can’t recommend Metazone enough for anyone wanting something extra for their horse. We’ve now put one of our other horses on Metazone and I’ve been able to recommend it to lots of people who have now put their horses on it. It’s been an absolute game changer and I never thought that Sam would be able to compete again, let alone travel around the country competing at so many championships. We now have our eyes set on our area Horse Trials qualifier and hope to make it to the nationals. photo credit - Action Replay Photography
Five Star Metazone has been a fantastic product for my boy especially for stay away showjumping shows when he's on a high work load and is stabled for long periods, he seems very comfortable with no stiffness or puffy legs. It's given me such peace of mind. photo credit Powell Photography
I started Trev on the Metazone as soon as I received the bottle and wow, what a difference it made. Within the first 5 days the stamping of his hind feet had almost stopped!! His skin was looking much less red and sore. I was so impressed with the progress of his legs over the next couple of weeks that I ordered another bottle and have kept him on it. After speaking to the excellent team on your stand at Badminton Horse Trials I have now put my TB mare on it too!!
I have been feeding Metazone to my horse, Zia's Zavitas, who had qualified for the BE90 Grassroots. He ate it ok and he recovered brilliantly from the event despite it being one of only a handful of stay-away shows he's done. He was so bright and happy the day after, we went for a hack on the estate and I ended up taking him for an unplanned canter up the hill as he was jogging sideways! Metazone helped him recover very quickly from the previous day's exploits.
We have been feeding Metazone to our 17 year old Connemara Cloud. Three years ago he had a big injury which we were lucky to get him back from. He qualified for the NAF BE80 championship with my daughter Lucy and we were aware that he would find it hard to get fit enough to compete, so we used your product to help with this for the championship, it certainly helped him cope he was happy with the work and moving more freely. He set off cross country happy and forward but by jump 7 was feeling the ground and had a stop, my daughter Lucy made the decision to retire, as we both believe in horse before sport, and would rather bring him home happy and sound, which we did. We had a wonderful time at the championship despite not completing and we will continue to use your product, as he is so comfortable.
I started Kenny on Metazone a couple of weeks ago and I'm really pleased with the results. He is on a 8 week rehab programme from the vets and we're due back there next week. Before putting him on Metazone he was very stiff, and better on the straight but still a bit reluctant to go forwards at times. Since putting him on Metazone, his mobility has significantly improved and he looks a lot better on the lunge. He is also going forwards much better out hacking and seems a lot happier. Safe to say, I will be keeping him on this and will tell friends etc. about it.
I have been feeding Metazone now for 4 weeks and I’m amazed at the difference in Dream, her coat is gleaming and her eyes are clear and not puffy as she suffers from pollen. She is not stiff coming out of the stable in the morning and is so alert and forward.
Whilst feeding Metazone to my mare I’m thrilled to report she produced a fabulous double clear at Bramham, over a cross country course that was fabulously built by Ian Stark, which favoured brave riding with many technical questions. I feel my mare is really well in herself, has recovered like she’s not done a big event, and was feeling very well and full of it in the show jumping and despite the hilly going cross country, she finished really well. No heat, stiffness, anything to report, which is great. I have also noticed she has less itchiness at the top of her tail. I feel she is also more supple and less tight. Photo credit 1st Class Images
I think Metazone is great! Will is a fussy eater but he is finishing all his feed up with Five Star Metazone in it. He isn't as sensitive when being tacked up and is moving a lot freer than a few weeks ago. Even the farrier mentioned last week how good his feet are looking which is great news after his bout of laminitis last year.
I found feeding Metazone to my mare Alivia very beneficial, as she is an experienced horse who has competed on Team GB multiple times as well as previously two Youth European Championships so we are always looking to keep her feeling in peak condition especially during the competition season. I felt on the Metazone supplement that she was on top form within herself, which greatly helped her performance in the competition arena as we achieved a personal best score as a partnership at the recent Hickstead Premier League. I really felt as though the Metazone gave her that 'edge' to perform at her best! I will definitely be continuing the use of NAF Metazone and will certainly be trying out the syringes as well to give her that extra boost before a competition.
First of all, thank you so much for choosing us to trial Metazone, it was an honour to do so. I’ve been looking for a supplement for Bella to make sure she’s as comfortable as possible. She can be quite a fussy eater so I opted for the liquid option and she absolutely loves it, can’t wait for me to put her feed bowl down! Since starting our trial I’ve noticed a real difference in her willingness to canter which is something we’ve really struggled with for a long time and I will definitely be continuing to use Metazone as I'm feeling so much more positive about our future together.
After feeding NAF Five Star Metazone, I am pleased to say that there has been a marked (and very welcome!) improvement in Traquito's energy. He is much more focused, seems happier in himself and moving freely and forwards. A bonus side-effect has also been that his skin and coat have improved and there has been no itching as we've moved into the summer. Traquito can be suspicious of anything new added to his feed, but the liquid Five Star Metazone was 100% palatable and he ate with no issues at all.
Silvana II is our lovely 24 year old who is a retired showjumper but now weaves her joy of life into our lives in her semi-retirement, enjoying gentle hacks and a hundred kisses a day! Having tried Metazone on three of our horses, I can say that the smell alone is enough to tempt the fussy eaters. Silvana is suspicious of anything added to her food but not with Metazone, which is always a big plus factor when adding new supplements. Having been a long-term user of NAF products, Metazone is a welcome new edition to the range.
I have recently introduced the NAF Five Star Metazone into my feeding routine and it has now become a staple part of my competition horse’s diet. My horse and I have been working alongside my veterinary physio, to rehabilitate an existing ailment over the winter period; in conjunction with frequent water treadmill and physio sessions, Metazone has provided him with the boost that he needs to be competition-season ready once again. He has never looked and felt so good!
I have owned Diamond for nearly 10 years now and unfortunately, over the years he has had a few issues that have put a strain on him. Since being on Metazone, I have noticed an improved suppleness when ridden.
I have been feeding Metazone to my 11yo ex-racehorse, Bond during the period of bringing him back into work after a long period of time off. I wanted to ensure that he had every advantage to help him physically. What I love most about this supplement is that it targets the areas that my horses body needs the most help with and I was attracted to the fact it can be used both long and short term. I have always felt my horse needed a bit 'extra' something but couldn't quite pinpoint it, and I think Metazone has this covered.
I’ve been feeding Metazone for about two months now and I’m so pleased with the results. Since feeding Metazone he feels much more supple and is moving great! It’s really given him the extra boost he needed and he is excelling in both the dressage arena, show jumping arena and showing arena. The powder has a nice smell, which makes it more appealing even for the fussy feeders! This will stay in my feed regime now for sure!
I have noticed a difference in my mare since she has been on the Five Star Metazone. She was diagnosed with hip issues December last year. Metazone seems to have made her more comfortable and given her some sass and speed back. I have only been giving her half a scoop as she only has a small feed, but even the half a scoop seems to have made a difference. It also smells really nice and makes all her friends jealous.
My mare is a fussy eater and hasn't been bothered by Metazone liquid being in her feed, in fact when I ran out of it for a few days she didn't eat her feed, but is happily eating it again now with Metazone in. I love the smell of it! Ellie is 17 years old and we compete BS showjumping. She had become slightly pottery when I first got on her but since using Metazone she isn't at all and feels supple and free moving from the moment I get on. Her coat looks fantastic and she is definitely feeling well. Metazone has helped her recover quicker after several 3 day shows. I will definitely be continuing with it. photo credit - Showground Photography
Will is a fussy eater but he is finishing all his feed up with Five Star Metazone in it. He isn't as sensitive when being saddled and is moving a lot freer than a few weeks ago. Even the farrier mentioned last week how good his feet are. He looks and feels amazing so I will definitely be keeping him on Metazone!
I have owned Diamond for nearly ten years now and unfortunately over the years he has had a few issues. Since being on Metazone, I have noticed improved striding and suppleness when ridden. Metazone is great as both a daily supplement or a short-term boost after a strenuous day and I am impressed that the ingredients are gentle on the horse's gut. I have tended to use the liquid to help aid recovery after periods of intense work or competitions and have found that Diamond is now bouncing back quicker than ever!
I must admit I was sceptical to start and I didn't think it made any difference - however now I have run out, it definitely did! She seems better in her hinds. I found the liquid easy to use, my horse can be really fussy (especially in the summer when she is full of grass) but she ate it no problem!
Since feeding Metazone I’ve noticed positive changes in my horse! He’s much more alert and forward when riding as he’s quite lazy usually it’s nice to have him a bit more forward without being silly! I’m really happy with the results I have had from Metazone and will be continuing to feed it to my horses as I feel that the benefits Metazone provides are really important for competition horses!
I’ve been looking for a supplement to make sure Bella 11 is as comfortable as possible alongside her other treatments. She can be quite a fussy eater so I opted for the liquid option and she absolutely loves it, she can’t wait for me to put her feed bowl down! I’ve noticed a real difference in her willingness to canter which is something we’ve really struggled with for a long time and I will definitely be continuing to use Metazone as I'm feeling so much more positive about our future together.
Although we have only been using Metazone for just over a month, I am confident it’s definitely helping my 11 year old ex-Grade C Showjumper Havanna. I wanted to find something that would help her, as she gets a bit older and help us to continue competing, especially with the challenges that the hard ground presents, not just out competing but at home during turnout!
NAF Metazone has exceeded expectations! My mare has become less stressed and more willing in work, with a difference being very clear in just a few short days of introducing to her feed. She's more comfortable in her way of going too, with me being able to introduce some of the jumps on the farm ride which we're both thoroughly enjoying. It's very palatable for fussy eaters as well, as I found no issues introducing the recommended daily amount to her pre-ride feed.
Since feeding Metazone I have noticed some major differences in my horses, they had quite dull and lifeless looking coats and one of my boy kept getting hives and just general scabby skin, since being on this product it’s stayed away and he’s gone so shiny! My horses also have a tendency to be rather nervous, this is the first time they have not been on a calmer! They have been so level headed recently it’s like I have a new horse!
I have been feeding Metazone to my 4yo ISH who has recently just been backed and who I hope to event in future. Before feeding it, she was still shedding her winter coat and was getting those annoying bumps on her skin from coat shedding. Since using Metazone her coat has come through and she is completely shining. The bumps on her skin have gone but I'm certain this is due to feeding Metazone.
My 7yo mare Matilda is recovering from a kissing spine operation and has had intensive rehabilitation since. Although I could see progress it was very steady and Matilda still looked a little weak despite following a strict exercise plan. I started feeding Metazone and although initially I didn’t see any difference by the time I had given the product a few weeks she was really started to muscle up nicely, and look like a nice strong little horse. She seems happier in her work and is moving better than ever, of course some of this will be her strengthening up from her rehab work but I'm convinced that the Metazone has definitely helped us, and I have continued to feed it even after finishing the trial. A great supplement that will help maintain and improve a variety of horses.
I love the Metazone product and now have all my horses on it! Impy, my Bramham ride, went amazing and we finished 9th, it was so close at the top. One of my horses won’t eat, but since being on Metazone, not only does he eat all his feeds, but he now doesn’t take 15 minutes to get going when you school him. I have my six horses on Metazone and I really do think it’s extremely beneficial for them, especially as one is 28 years old and still in full work!
We have had a number of our competition horses on Metazone, including an older gelding of 23 and a very special dressage mare of 15 yrs. Both of these horses are beginning to show signs of ageing. We have one of the powder and one on the liquid, both very palatable for them to eat. We have found them to both be more willing to work, both under saddle and in hand. We will continue to use both the liquid and powder as a staple within our supplement as we feel it supports the horses to enjoy a comfortable life.
"We have been using Five Star Metazone Liquid for Bertie for a week now and there is a real difference. He was generally a little stiff and is now more free to move and was jogging to start his endurance ride yesterday. We are so pleased with the results and will continue to use it. My sister says it’s given him wings. Bertie is 26 years old and he was like a youngster on Sunday prancing about and trotting at every opportunity. My sister also rode him two days before and every time he hit grass he went straight into canter. We are so glad we tried Metazone, he needed a boost and it did just that!”
“Zeus has been on Metazone for several months now. We can’t believe how much better he is coming out of this winter compared to other years; he seems so much more supple and less stressy than usual. At 15 years old, he is definitely loving life now.”
“Our Welsh D had a number of irritations that made him generally uncomfortable. Our local NAF Representative recommended trying him on Metazone. Best thing we could have done! He's definitely feeling better and is more active in work. I honestly can't recommend it highly enough. We know it had to be the supplement as absolutely nothing else in his routine changed.”
“I was advised to feed Metazone as Major struggles with seasonal allergies where we see him become really agitated and have a snotty nose. Last year I tried everything, nothing worked and I felt helpless. I have been feeding Metazone for a month now and he is back to his usual self with no signs, long may it continue.”
“My mare had to come out of work due to an injury; she has since had a couple of foals and I decided to start feeding Metazone around a month ago. She is now happily being ridden again for the first time in six years which is totally amazing. I honestly thought I would have to get a professional to start her off but she’s been so calm, happy and comfortable on Metazone - a great recommendation from Dee Shears at BJ Dance”
“Here is Calypso at her first ever Scottish Riding Club Championships. Since adding Metazone to her diet just over a month ago, her seasonal shaking has reduced considerably. I also feed Five Star Optimum, Biotics and Electrolytes.”
“Metazone is amazing - Grace feels so much more supple and happier in her work - more willing and energetic which is really lovely to ride. I am definitely going to keep her on this.”
“I have been feeding Metazone to 15 year old Wallace to support the anti-inflammatory process after he had therapeutic work done on his stifle. The results have been brilliant, the vets and physio are delighted with his progress and we have been allowed to get back riding. To say I'm delighted is an understatement. Wallace is getting stronger every day. All being well we hope to get into show ring at the end of July. Thanks again for your help and advice, NAF products have been a big part of his recovery.”
“I’ve been feeding my 6yr old Five Star Metazone for a little while now. He’s recently qualified for the National Discovery Final and the Working Hunter Intermediate final at the Royal International Horse Show whilst being fed Metazone. With him being only 6, I like him being on a supplement that helps support him. He’s a very talented little horse and I’m very proud of how well he’s doing on your product”.
NAF Metazone is a game changer! All my horses are fed Metazone which I buy in the big bottle. My horse Truman has had 2 years off from being a show jumper to now being a great dressage horse, and my 24 year old horse Badger had joint issues, but Metazone has made him much more comfortable.
Elton is 20 years old and we tried Metazone for the first time this year before the start of the show season, he can sometimes show signs of stiffness at ‘boot camp’. He was much improved, in fact he was feeling great, showing his moves to our physio and she said that's the best she's seen him coming out of winter! He had a serious tendon injury in his front foot and an injury to his right hind when he was younger that has caused some changes now he's getting older. I feel Metazone has really helped, especially since him and my boyfriend have taken up playing football; yes you can teach an old horse tricks! He's taught Elton to kick the ball so they can pass it back and forth and Elton can dribble the ball over, apparently he's both left and right footed and can fairly boot it! I'm just glad he had the Metazone during training so wasn't on the bench with an injury! His skin is also sensitive to fly bites and sometime these cause a reaction, however this year there has been no new bumps on his neck, the older ones have reduced and I think the itching is less! (He was fed Metazone when the midges started and were bad).
I’ve been feeding Blonde Metazone for the past month, it’s a fantastic product. I've really noticed she comes out more focused and her recovery time is much quicker. Her legs haven't filled at stay away shows and even her coat looks vibrant, with an overall glow.
My son Jack has just turned 15 and is loving being on horses even though he has another year left on ponies. Jack has competed at top level on ponies and intends to do the same with his horses. We have been feeding Metazone and we’ve noticed with the slightly older ones that their performance seems to be getting better all the time. Jacks latest achievement with Kimba Classic, the horse that he qualified for the Bronze League class on was a win at the Royal Lancashire agricultural show.
My favourite NAF product is Metazone. We were recommended it by a friend roughly 18 months ago and since starting on it Jeremy has been flying. He is now 17 and whilst he doesn’t have any specific aches or pains, it just keeps him moving nicely and loving his job!
Our Champion Product is Metazone and we have been using it ever since it was first launched. My daughter thinks it's special as since she has been adding it to his daily feed, her 3\ event horse Tango has not had any issues for the last couple of seasons. They have a great partnership and have gone from BE80 to 3*, and are about to enter their first 4.
We feel that it has definitely made a difference to his way of going, especially supporting his joints and muscles after hard work. All in all, it works for us.
Sam is 19 this year and has done absolutely everything I could have wanted in the 9 years that I’ve owned him. He’s been round the BC100 Champs at Badminton, competed at all the BRC champs and has taken me around BE Novice. A couple of years ago he was diagnosed with front foot issues, but was far from wanting a quieter life. He was put on Danilon to support him but unfortunately this meant he wouldn’t be able to carry on competing BE & BRC. I can honestly say Metazone has given him a new lease of life. He’s now out competing and we’ve qualified for every BRC winter champs this year and he has excelled at each one including placing 2nd at the Arena Eventing champs, 4th at the Novice SJ champs & a team 5th at the recent combined champs. I can’t recommend Metazone enough for anyone wanting something extra for their horse. We’ve now put one of our other horses on Metazone and I’ve been able to recommend it to lots of people who have now put their horses on it. It’s been an absolute game changer and I never thought that Sam would be able to compete again, let alone travel around the country competing at so many championships. We now have our eyes set on our area Horse Trials qualifier and hope to make it to the nationals. photo credit - Action Replay Photography
"NAF’s Five Star Metazone is a staple of my feed room. During the event season, when my horses are competing and training hard, as well as travelling many hours in the lorry, I have found that with Metazone, they come out of an event or a training session feeling much fresher and bounce back much quicker than before. I feed this to all of my horses, alongside NAF Superflex for joint flexibility, and they really do feel amazing."
"At the ripe old age of 23, my retired dressage horse Alfstead (Ted to his friends) is still full of life and energy and loves to have a gentle work out in the school a couple of times a week alongside strolling around the countryside with his apprentice Harley by his side. I noticed that he was beginning to come out of his stable a little more tight and stiff in the mornings and that whilst his enthusiasm hadn't waned he was certainly feeling a bit more 'old'. I jumped at the chance to try NAF's Five Star Metazone which is formulated to help in these situations and I have been thrilled with the results. Ted seems to have shed years and is back to his younger self - he comes out of his stable with minimal signs of stiffness now and positively bounces into the school and marches down the road. I keep him on the maintenance dose of the product and feed it daily. I would recommend this product to anyone in a similar situation - it is just great to see Ted enjoying his golden years again."
"After having trialled NAF’s Five Star Metazone over the past couple of years, I have found it to be an essential aid in keeping Carl and Charlotte’s horses in peak condition. Metazone has been especially beneficial for recovery after a busy competition as well as keeping the horses feeling their best with the huge amount of travelling they do. In 2021, we of course had the long trip to Tokyo and just four weeks later, we had to be ready for another big Championship in Germany. I fed Metazone prior to travelling whilst the horses were in quarantine and also on the journey. It comes in liquid, powder and syringe form which is extremely useful depending on what your horse prefers and I found the liquid and syringe easy to feed when in transit. With the help of Metazone, the horses were able to travel the world and perform at their peak."
"As I moved my event horse further up the levels and his level of jumping effort increased, I started feeding NAF Five Star Metazone daily with a view to combating stiffness after work. I have been amazed by the results, with the horse coming out fresh and enthusiastic in his work as well as a notable improvement in producing clear rounds at competitions."
"NAF Five Star Metazone is one of our essential products at Heathcroft Farm. We tend to feed it predominantly at shows and during long strenuous journeys as we find it helps the horses muscles to relax, recover and regain maximum movement. This is vital to us all as it means that the horses are able to perform to the best of their abilities."
"We have been feeding NAF’s Five Star Metazone for a couple of years now. We started feeding it to Sintano before he flew out to Tokyo and we were delighted with how well he coped with the journey and his workload. We fed the product at the recommended peak feeding rate between Tokyo and the European Championships back in 2021 and Metazone helped Sintano to maintain condition and energy levels. Knowing that it has been formulated to be competition safe is always reassuring too. Subsequently, we now feed Metazone to all of our horses who are working, training and competing hard; reducing the dose to maintenance if they are resting and increasing it again as the workload increases. In particular, we are using the product for Goldstrike who Gareth is going to be campaigning at Grand Prix this year, for Wex, Ruby's new Young Rider horse and of course for our star Briolinca who performed so well at the London International Horse Show recently. Metazone is a wonderful product that we would not want to be without and it definitely keeps our horses ‘in the zone’."
"As the competition season becomes more and more intense, the fitness and wellbeing of the horses after each competition has never been as important. With quick turnarounds from one show to the next, NAF Five Star Metazone has been effective and influential in making sure each of my horses have managed to stay feeling as fit and well as possible. This has helped us to continue to improve their results as the seasons go on."
"April has been the most wonderful all-rounder all her life and now at 29 years of age she is determined to continue to be an active member of the equine team - retirement is definitely not for her. She loves her gentle hacks with her friends two or three times a week but we began to notice that she was getting a little stiffer and just finding things a little more difficult, up and down hills for example. We put her on a trial of NAF’s Five Star Metazone and almost immediately noticed that she was more comfortable. The product was palatable and easy to feed and we have now dropped her down to maintenance rate which we feed daily. She is so happy and well and walks out with a spring in her step now. We simply would not want to be without Metazone."
"Metazone has made a huge difference to my pony. He’s literally gone from hardly moving in his stable to bouncing off the walls!"
"I started feeding Five Star Metazone about three weeks ago and I’m absolutely overwhelmed! Combined with Five Star Superflex Senior, my 18 year old dressage horse Gracjano is so smooth and flexible in his joints and very relaxed in the muscles, alongside Five Star M Power. I cannot be more satisfied with the results! Metazone has clearly done an amazing job alongside the other two supplements he’s currently on. Thank you NAF for making my horse feel young and flexible!"
"Chance is the pony of a lifetime and at 17 years old he had started to show signs of ageing and slowing down a little. We tried him on Five Star Metazone and the difference has been remarkable! After three weeks on Metazone he is flying around a course of fences like he’s half his age. He has a spring in his stride again and we are really looking forward to an action packed summer of Pony Club, getting out competing and having fun with his new enthusiasm for life!"
"The results have been absolutely amazing on Metazone Powder for my horse after just the first tub. Here's a photo of him winning his elementary class at the weekend, he honestly hasn't moved better since being in the Metazone; I've now dropped the BozMerix from his diet."
"Since using Five Star Metazone Pie is moving well in his paces and we haven’t seen any puffiness in his legs. Now at 15 years old we really want to keep him in tip top condition and we feel that this has been great for him."
"OMG, I have my horse back! Five Star Metazone has made a huge difference to her! She strides out, asks for trot and is her old bouncy self! I thought it was just me but my farrier commented this morning that she is not fidgety on her fronts with no shoes when he is trimming her hinds. I even rode her after the farrier, which I never do; it’s amazing! Lovely to have my T bird back!"
"I’m two years into the ownership of 18 year-old ISH Ellie. Both this and last April proved trying as her seasons kicked in and she was displaying mareish tendencies! I was on the verge of calling a vet as her behaviour was so out of character, but not entirely convinced that I wasn’t just being a neurotic owner I thought I would give new NAF Five Star Metazone a go first. By day three my horse was back! Her coat and breathing are great, she is relaxed, happy, loose, supple, sound and rideable. I think Metazone is the backup extra support I’ve needed without realising it."
NAF Five Star Metazone has given twenty-one year old Treacle a new lease of life. I highly recommend this product.
”NAF Five Star Metazone has been the addition to Hugo's feeding regime that I didn’t know he needed! At maintenance levels, it supports him in his usual training and everyday life but it really comes into its own when we are in peak competition conditions and staying away - he looks a million dollars and feels like a bouncy rubber ball to ride! His skin is stunning, his coat is super shiny and he really is feeling at the top of his game! It smells fabulous his and he always polishes it off. Metazone has transformed this horse so much so that I’ve decided to try the liquid next and subsequently ordered 5L. We will now keep him on it and, most importantly, keep him in the Metazone!”

”Since using Metazone, our pony Milligan has significantly improved in his way of going, his coat is looking fabulous and he really looks fantastic for his age - he's 18 years young. With a combination of ridden work, the water treadmill at HLS Equine Therapy and Metazone added to his daily feeds, Milligan has gone from a less than cooperative pony to finishing third at Haydock Park in the pony racing and winning best turned out! We really couldn’t be happier and we have started our other pony on Metazone who has also shown a great change in her coat in less than a week! I literally tell anyone who will listen just how fab Metazone is.”
“My horse Frank has been eating Metazone Powder with no fuss, but then it does smell good! Since feeding Metazone, his coat has looked amazing, there’s definitely some extra shine. But most importantly, he’s a big horse and he hasn’t got the best joints. Since feeding Metazone I have seen an improvement; he feels looser and softer in his work and I think Metazone is helping him in his maturing years.”

"My horse had recently endured a busy training and competition schedule which took a lot out of her. I was therefore very grateful to be offered the chance to trial Metazone. This has supported my horse's recovery and helped to optimise her condition and energy levels. I now feed this as a short term boost after travelling and competing. I also feed Superflex Senior, which is another NAF product that we couldn’t do without!"
"My boy absolutely loves Metazone, he licks the bowl clean! While trying Metazone, we've stepped back up to full work and we have done a cross country clinic with Cameron Beer, a beach ride and our first one day event! Since coming back from his injury, I do believe Metazone has helped. Also, it smells amazing, like hot chocolate! Thank you so much for letting us try Metazone, we are loving life.”
Five Star Metazone has been a fantastic product for my boy especially for stay away showjumping shows when he's on a high work load and is stabled for long periods, he seems very comfortable with no stiffness or puffy legs. It's given me such peace of mind. photo credit Powell Photography
I started Trev on the Metazone as soon as I received the bottle and wow, what a difference it made. Within the first 5 days the stamping of his hind feet had almost stopped!! His skin was looking much less red and sore. I was so impressed with the progress of his legs over the next couple of weeks that I ordered another bottle and have kept him on it. After speaking to the excellent team on your stand at Badminton Horse Trials I have now put my TB mare on it too!!
I have been feeding Metazone to my horse, Zia's Zavitas, who had qualified for the BE90 Grassroots. He ate it ok and he recovered brilliantly from the event despite it being one of only a handful of stay-away shows he's done. He was so bright and happy the day after, we went for a hack on the estate and I ended up taking him for an unplanned canter up the hill as he was jogging sideways! Metazone helped him recover very quickly from the previous day's exploits.
We have been feeding Metazone to our 17 year old Connemara Cloud. Three years ago he had a big injury which we were lucky to get him back from. He qualified for the NAF BE80 championship with my daughter Lucy and we were aware that he would find it hard to get fit enough to compete, so we used your product to help with this for the championship, it certainly helped him cope he was happy with the work and moving more freely. He set off cross country happy and forward but by jump 7 was feeling the ground and had a stop, my daughter Lucy made the decision to retire, as we both believe in horse before sport, and would rather bring him home happy and sound, which we did. We had a wonderful time at the championship despite not completing and we will continue to use your product, as he is so comfortable.
I found feeding Metazone to my mare Alivia very beneficial, as she is an experienced horse who has competed on Team GB multiple times as well as previously two Youth European Championships so we are always looking to keep her feeling in peak condition especially during the competition season. I felt on the Metazone supplement that she was on top form within herself, which greatly helped her performance in the competition arena as we achieved a personal best score as a partnership at the recent Hickstead Premier League. I really felt as though the Metazone gave her that 'edge' to perform at her best! I will definitely be continuing the use of NAF Metazone and will certainly be trying out the syringes as well to give her that extra boost before a competition.
“Mo, known as Moomin to her friends, isn't your standard dressage horse but she's competing at Medium level and she always tries to do her best. She has a history of issues with suppleness but since starting her on NAF Five Star Metazone, she looks amazing and she feels so much more comfortable in her work. She loves to please and now she can do it with ease.”
I have been feeding Metazone now for 4 weeks and I’m amazed at the difference in Dream, her coat is gleaming and her eyes are clear and not puffy as she suffers from pollen. She is not stiff coming out of the stable in the morning and is so alert and forward.
Whilst feeding Metazone to my mare I’m thrilled to report she produced a fabulous double clear at Bramham, over a cross country course that was fabulously built by Ian Stark, which favoured brave riding with many technical questions. I feel my mare is really well in herself, has recovered like she’s not done a big event, and was feeling very well and full of it in the show jumping and despite the hilly going cross country, she finished really well. No heat, stiffness, anything to report, which is great. I have also noticed she has less itchiness at the top of her tail. I feel she is also more supple and less tight. Photo credit 1st Class Images
I think Metazone is great! Will is a fussy eater but he is finishing all his feed up with Five Star Metazone in it. He isn't as sensitive when being tacked up and is moving a lot freer than a few weeks ago. Even the farrier mentioned last week how good his feet are looking which is great news after his bout of laminitis last year.
I started Kenny on Metazone a couple of weeks ago and I'm really pleased with the results. He is on a 8 week rehab programme from the vets and we're due back there next week. Before putting him on Metazone he was very stiff, and better on the straight but still a bit reluctant to go forwards at times. Since putting him on Metazone, his mobility has significantly improved and he looks a lot better on the lunge. He is also going forwards much better out hacking and seems a lot happier. Safe to say, I will be keeping him on this and will tell friends etc. about it.
“I cannot praise NAF Five Star Metazone enough. I have a 29 year-old, 17.3hh warmblood gelding who has issues in his leg and shoulder joints and it was recommended that I try him on Metazone. He is now willing to have his feet picked out and recently, he went off down the field in a canter bucking playfully. At night he comes trotting to the gate when called which he hasn’t done for ages. His coat has a lovely shine and you can see dappling all over his coat. Thank you again NAF for making my old boy happier.”
After feeding NAF Five Star Metazone, I am pleased to say that there has been a marked (and very welcome!) improvement in Traquito's energy. He is much more focused, seems happier in himself and moving freely and forwards. A bonus side-effect has also been that his skin and coat have improved and there has been no itching as we've moved into the summer. Traquito can be suspicious of anything new added to his feed, but the liquid Five Star Metazone was 100% palatable and he ate with no issues at all.
Silvana II is our lovely 24 year old who is a retired showjumper but now weaves her joy of life into our lives in her semi-retirement, enjoying gentle hacks and a hundred kisses a day! Having tried Metazone on three of our horses, I can say that the smell alone is enough to tempt the fussy eaters. Silvana is suspicious of anything added to her food but not with Metazone, which is always a big plus factor when adding new supplements. Having been a long-term user of NAF products, Metazone is a welcome new edition to the range.
I have recently introduced the NAF Five Star Metazone into my feeding routine and it has now become a staple part of my competition horse’s diet. My horse and I have been working alongside my veterinary physio, to rehabilitate an existing ailment over the winter period; in conjunction with frequent water treadmill and physio sessions, Metazone has provided him with the boost that he needs to be competition-season ready once again. He has never looked and felt so good!
I have owned Diamond for nearly 10 years now and unfortunately, over the years he has had a few issues that have put a strain on him. Since being on Metazone, I have noticed an improved suppleness when ridden.
I have been feeding Metazone to my 11yo ex-racehorse, Bond during the period of bringing him back into work after a long period of time off. I wanted to ensure that he had every advantage to help him physically. What I love most about this supplement is that it targets the areas that my horses body needs the most help with and I was attracted to the fact it can be used both long and short term. I have always felt my horse needed a bit 'extra' something but couldn't quite pinpoint it, and I think Metazone has this covered.
I’ve been feeding Metazone for about two months now and I’m so pleased with the results. Since feeding Metazone he feels much more supple and is moving great! It’s really given him the extra boost he needed and he is excelling in both the dressage arena, show jumping arena and showing arena. The powder has a nice smell, which makes it more appealing even for the fussy feeders! This will stay in my feed regime now for sure!
I have noticed a difference in my mare since she has been on the Five Star Metazone. She was diagnosed with hip issues December last year. Metazone seems to have made her more comfortable and given her some sass and speed back. I have only been giving her half a scoop as she only has a small feed, but even the half a scoop seems to have made a difference. It also smells really nice and makes all her friends jealous.
My mare is a fussy eater and hasn't been bothered by Metazone liquid being in her feed, in fact when I ran out of it for a few days she didn't eat her feed, but is happily eating it again now with Metazone in. I love the smell of it! Ellie is 17 years old and we compete BS showjumping. She had become slightly pottery when I first got on her but since using Metazone she isn't at all and feels supple and free moving from the moment I get on. Her coat looks fantastic and she is definitely feeling well. Metazone has helped her recover quicker after several 3 day shows. I will definitely be continuing with it. photo credit - Showground Photography
Will is a fussy eater but he is finishing all his feed up with Five Star Metazone in it. He isn't as sensitive when being saddled and is moving a lot freer than a few weeks ago. Even the farrier mentioned last week how good his feet are. He looks and feels amazing so I will definitely be keeping him on Metazone!
I have owned Diamond for nearly ten years now and unfortunately over the years he has had a few issues. Since being on Metazone, I have noticed improved striding and suppleness when ridden. Metazone is great as both a daily supplement or a short-term boost after a strenuous day and I am impressed that the ingredients are gentle on the horse's gut. I have tended to use the liquid to help aid recovery after periods of intense work or competitions and have found that Diamond is now bouncing back quicker than ever!
I must admit I was sceptical to start and I didn't think it made any difference - however now I have run out, it definitely did! She seems better in her hinds. I found the liquid easy to use, my horse can be really fussy (especially in the summer when she is full of grass) but she ate it no problem!
Since feeding Metazone I’ve noticed positive changes in my horse! He’s much more alert and forward when riding as he’s quite lazy usually it’s nice to have him a bit more forward without being silly! I’m really happy with the results I have had from Metazone and will be continuing to feed it to my horses as I feel that the benefits Metazone provides are really important for competition horses!
I’ve been looking for a supplement to make sure Bella 11 is as comfortable as possible alongside her other treatments. She can be quite a fussy eater so I opted for the liquid option and she absolutely loves it, she can’t wait for me to put her feed bowl down! I’ve noticed a real difference in her willingness to canter which is something we’ve really struggled with for a long time and I will definitely be continuing to use Metazone as I'm feeling so much more positive about our future together.
Although we have only been using Metazone for just over a month, I am confident it’s definitely helping my 11 year old ex-Grade C Showjumper Havanna. I wanted to find something that would help her, as she gets a bit older and help us to continue competing, especially with the challenges that the hard ground presents, not just out competing but at home during turnout!
NAF Metazone has exceeded expectations! My mare has become less stressed and more willing in work, with a difference being very clear in just a few short days of introducing to her feed. She's more comfortable in her way of going too, with me being able to introduce some of the jumps on the farm ride which we're both thoroughly enjoying. It's very palatable for fussy eaters as well, as I found no issues introducing the recommended daily amount to her pre-ride feed.
Since feeding Metazone I have noticed some major differences in my horses, they had quite dull and lifeless looking coats and one of my boy kept getting hives and just general scabby skin, since being on this product it’s stayed away and he’s gone so shiny! My horses also have a tendency to be rather nervous, this is the first time they have not been on a calmer! They have been so level headed recently it’s like I have a new horse!
I have been feeding Metazone to my 4yo ISH who has recently just been backed and who I hope to event in future. Before feeding it, she was still shedding her winter coat and was getting those annoying bumps on her skin from coat shedding. Since using Metazone her coat has come through and she is completely shining. The bumps on her skin have gone but I'm certain this is due to feeding Metazone.
My 7yo mare Matilda is recovering from a kissing spine operation and has had intensive rehabilitation since. Although I could see progress it was very steady and Matilda still looked a little weak despite following a strict exercise plan. I started feeding Metazone and although initially I didn’t see any difference by the time I had given the product a few weeks she was really started to muscle up nicely, and look like a nice strong little horse. She seems happier in her work and is moving better than ever, of course some of this will be her strengthening up from her rehab work but I'm convinced that the Metazone has definitely helped us, and I have continued to feed it even after finishing the trial. A great supplement that will help maintain and improve a variety of horses.
I love the Metazone product and now have all my horses on it! Impy, my Bramham ride, went amazing and we finished 9th, it was so close at the top. One of my horses won’t eat, but since being on Metazone, not only does he eat all his feeds, but he now doesn’t take 15 minutes to get going when you school him. I have my six horses on Metazone and I really do think it’s extremely beneficial for them, especially as one is 28 years old and still in full work!
We have had a number of our competition horses on Metazone, including an older gelding of 23 and a very special dressage mare of 15 yrs. Both of these horses are beginning to show signs of ageing. We have one of the powder and one on the liquid, both very palatable for them to eat. We have found them to both be more willing to work, both under saddle and in hand. We will continue to use both the liquid and powder as a staple within our supplement as we feel it supports the horses to enjoy a comfortable life.
“I’ve owned Argenda for a short time and since owning him, he's been fed on NAF Five Star Metazone, Five Star Superflex and in the Pink Powder. They've given him springs and my trainer, Johnathan Bowman, who has known him for years, says he’s never seen him looking and jumping so well.”
“I feed NAF Five Star Metazone Powder to my ladies hunter Troy daily. Metazone allows him to be a lot more supple and comfortable when carrying the side saddle; allowing us to shine in the ring.”
“I am so impressed with the results from using NAF Five Star Metazone on our horses! It really works! It helps so much with muscle repair, they feel so supple and relaxed in their work even after a hard few days competing. We have seen a huge improvement in Berry; she starts off feeling soft and happy now in her work and can keep her quality of work for longer since she has been on Metazone. I would highly recommend to anyone for an all round top of the range supplement! The competition results speak for themselves and our horses feel better than ever!”
“Since my Irish Sports horse started on the powder version of NAF Five Star Metazone, I have noticed a huge difference in day to day activities like putting the girth on, doing rugs up etc. Previously she was quite reactive due to sensitivity but since feeding Metazone she has had much less of a reaction and it is occurring less frequently. I’m very pleased as she seems to be much more comfortable in herself than before.”
“Zeus has been on Metazone for several months now. We can’t believe how much better he is coming out of this winter compared to other years; he seems so much more supple and less stressy than usual. At 15 years old, he is definitely loving life now.”
“Our Welsh D had a number of irritations that made him generally uncomfortable. Our local NAF Representative recommended trying him on Metazone. Best thing we could have done! He's definitely feeling better and is more active in work. I honestly can't recommend it highly enough. We know it had to be the supplement as absolutely nothing else in his routine changed.”
“I was advised to feed Metazone as Major struggles with seasonal allergies where we see him become really agitated and have a snotty nose. Last year I tried everything, nothing worked and I felt helpless. I have been feeding Metazone for a month now and he is back to his usual self with no signs, long may it continue.”
“My mare had to come out of work due to an injury; she has since had a couple of foals and I decided to start feeding Metazone around a month ago. She is now happily being ridden again for the first time in six years which is totally amazing. I honestly thought I would have to get a professional to start her off but she’s been so calm, happy and comfortable on Metazone - a great recommendation from Dee Shears at BJ Dance”
“Here is Calypso at her first ever Scottish Riding Club Championships. Since adding Metazone to her diet just over a month ago, her seasonal shaking has reduced considerably. I also feed Five Star Optimum, Biotics and Electrolytes.”
“Metazone is amazing - Grace feels so much more supple and happier in her work - more willing and energetic which is really lovely to ride. I am definitely going to keep her on this.”
“I have been feeding Metazone to 15 year old Wallace to support the anti-inflammatory process after he had therapeutic work done on his stifle. The results have been brilliant, the vets and physio are delighted with his progress and we have been allowed to get back riding. To say I'm delighted is an understatement. Wallace is getting stronger every day. All being well we hope to get into show ring at the end of July. Thanks again for your help and advice, NAF products have been a big part of his recovery.”
“I’ve been feeding my 6yr old Five Star Metazone for a little while now. He’s recently qualified for the National Discovery Final and the Working Hunter Intermediate final at the Royal International Horse Show whilst being fed Metazone. With him being only 6, I like him being on a supplement that helps support him. He’s a very talented little horse and I’m very proud of how well he’s doing on your product”.
I’ve been feeding Blonde Metazone for the past month, it’s a fantastic product. I've really noticed she comes out more focused and her recovery time is much quicker. Her legs haven't filled at stay away shows and even her coat looks vibrant, with an overall glow.
My son Jack has just turned 15 and is loving being on horses even though he has another year left on ponies. Jack has competed at top level on ponies and intends to do the same with his horses. We have been feeding Metazone and we’ve noticed with the slightly older ones that their performance seems to be getting better all the time. Jacks latest achievement with Kimba Classic, the horse that he qualified for the Bronze League class on was a win at the Royal Lancashire agricultural show.
Elton is 20 years old and we tried Metazone for the first time this year before the start of the show season, he can sometimes show signs of stiffness at ‘boot camp’. He was much improved, in fact he was feeling great, showing his moves to our physio and she said that's the best she's seen him coming out of winter! He had a serious tendon injury in his front foot and an injury to his right hind when he was younger that has caused some changes now he's getting older. I feel Metazone has really helped, especially since him and my boyfriend have taken up playing football; yes you can teach an old horse tricks! He's taught Elton to kick the ball so they can pass it back and forth and Elton can dribble the ball over, apparently he's both left and right footed and can fairly boot it! I'm just glad he had the Metazone during training so wasn't on the bench with an injury! His skin is also sensitive to fly bites and sometime these cause a reaction, however this year there has been no new bumps on his neck, the older ones have reduced and I think the itching is less! (He was fed Metazone when the midges started and were bad).
My favourite NAF product is Metazone. We were recommended it by a friend roughly 18 months ago and since starting on it Jeremy has been flying. He is now 17 and whilst he doesn’t have any specific aches or pains, it just keeps him moving nicely and loving his job!
Our Champion Product is Metazone and we have been using it ever since it was first launched. My daughter thinks it's special as since she has been adding it to his daily feed, her 3\ event horse Tango has not had any issues for the last couple of seasons. They have a great partnership and have gone from BE80 to 3*, and are about to enter their first 4.
We feel that it has definitely made a difference to his way of going, especially supporting his joints and muscles after hard work. All in all, it works for us.
Apollo is a five year old gelding and home produced by myself. He is in his first season under saddle having been shown successfully in hand last year. He lives a little on his nerves and holds himself tight. Since feeding Metazone, he seems less stressed, more comfortable and is relaxing which is helping his way of going.
A few months ago I started feeding Metazone Powder to my wonderful mare and we have recently qualified for RDS Dublin horse show in amateurs! She felt absolutely amazing, I also give an EnerG Shot before competitions which really helps! It was an all day event and she had to jump 3 rounds. She didn't feel tired, jumped really well and we qualified!
“Chiquita is definitely more comfortable since being on Metazone Powder. She comes out of the stable more fluently and is easier with the farrier, especially in her hind feet. I used to think she ached when stood in the stable but now not so. She jogs off when turned out in the field too.”
"I started using Metazone in the spring after my Highland was having stifle issues after an injury in the field. We use Metazone daily and the results have been fantastic. We can alter the dose as needed depending on work load and competition schedule."
"At the ripe old age of 23, my retired dressage horse Alfstead (Ted to his friends) is still full of life and energy and loves to have a gentle work out in the school a couple of times a week alongside strolling around the countryside with his apprentice Harley by his side. I noticed that he was beginning to come out of his stable a little more tight and stiff in the mornings and that whilst his enthusiasm hadn't waned he was certainly feeling a bit more 'old'. I jumped at the chance to try NAF's Five Star Metazone which is formulated to help in these situations and I have been thrilled with the results. Ted seems to have shed years and is back to his younger self - he comes out of his stable with minimal signs of stiffness now and positively bounces into the school and marches down the road. I keep him on the maintenance dose of the product and feed it daily. I would recommend this product to anyone in a similar situation - it is just great to see Ted enjoying his golden years again."
"NAF’s Five Star Metazone is a staple of my feed room. During the event season, when my horses are competing and training hard, as well as travelling many hours in the lorry, I have found that with Metazone, they come out of an event or a training session feeling much fresher and bounce back much quicker than before. I feed this to all of my horses, alongside NAF Superflex for joint flexibility, and they really do feel amazing."
"After having trialled NAF’s Five Star Metazone over the past couple of years, I have found it to be an essential aid in keeping Carl and Charlotte’s horses in peak condition. Metazone has been especially beneficial for recovery after a busy competition as well as keeping the horses feeling their best with the huge amount of travelling they do. In 2021, we of course had the long trip to Tokyo and just four weeks later, we had to be ready for another big Championship in Germany. I fed Metazone prior to travelling whilst the horses were in quarantine and also on the journey. It comes in liquid, powder and syringe form which is extremely useful depending on what your horse prefers and I found the liquid and syringe easy to feed when in transit. With the help of Metazone, the horses were able to travel the world and perform at their peak."
"As I moved my event horse further up the levels and his level of jumping effort increased, I started feeding NAF Five Star Metazone daily with a view to combating stiffness after work. I have been amazed by the results, with the horse coming out fresh and enthusiastic in his work as well as a notable improvement in producing clear rounds at competitions."
"NAF Five Star Metazone is one of our essential products at Heathcroft Farm. We tend to feed it predominantly at shows and during long strenuous journeys as we find it helps the horses muscles to relax, recover and regain maximum movement. This is vital to us all as it means that the horses are able to perform to the best of their abilities."
"We have been feeding NAF’s Five Star Metazone for a couple of years now. We started feeding it to Sintano before he flew out to Tokyo and we were delighted with how well he coped with the journey and his workload. We fed the product at the recommended peak feeding rate between Tokyo and the European Championships back in 2021 and Metazone helped Sintano to maintain condition and energy levels. Knowing that it has been formulated to be competition safe is always reassuring too. Subsequently, we now feed Metazone to all of our horses who are working, training and competing hard; reducing the dose to maintenance if they are resting and increasing it again as the workload increases. In particular, we are using the product for Goldstrike who Gareth is going to be campaigning at Grand Prix this year, for Wex, Ruby's new Young Rider horse and of course for our star Briolinca who performed so well at the London International Horse Show recently. Metazone is a wonderful product that we would not want to be without and it definitely keeps our horses ‘in the zone’."
"As the competition season becomes more and more intense, the fitness and wellbeing of the horses after each competition has never been as important. With quick turnarounds from one show to the next, NAF Five Star Metazone has been effective and influential in making sure each of my horses have managed to stay feeling as fit and well as possible. This has helped us to continue to improve their results as the seasons go on."
"April has been the most wonderful all-rounder all her life and now at 29 years of age she is determined to continue to be an active member of the equine team - retirement is definitely not for her. She loves her gentle hacks with her friends two or three times a week but we began to notice that she was getting a little stiffer and just finding things a little more difficult, up and down hills for example. We put her on a trial of NAF’s Five Star Metazone and almost immediately noticed that she was more comfortable. The product was palatable and easy to feed and we have now dropped her down to maintenance rate which we feed daily. She is so happy and well and walks out with a spring in her step now. We simply would not want to be without Metazone."
"Metazone has made a huge difference to my pony. He’s literally gone from hardly moving in his stable to bouncing off the walls!"
“I have just started using your Milk Thistle supplement. I am so happy with your product that I will now be using it all the time. Thank you.”
Thomas ( We’re Delighted) owned by Sophie Stent. Tom is a very fussy ex-racehorse who is not easily pleased with treats! Says Sophie, “Tom cannot get enough of the Minty Treats! We have just started Eventing and recently secured 9th place in our first BE Event - obviously we celebrated with a Minty Treat!”
"I love NAF products and I have recently had a horse that loves to eat, and one of the only things he eats is NAF horse treats he loves the apple one's and also the hedgy and mint one's."
"The NAF Treats have to be my favourite as everytime I go in the tack room my horse wants more treats! They smell so so good and I am in love with the packaging. If I was a horse I would eat them all in one go."
"Ted is feeling good on Mobility!"
"Dexter loves his Mobility and has never felt better! His movement has improved greatly."
"I have noticed a massive improvement in his movement and personality."
"Spring now has the energy of a puppy! Her playfulness has returned thanks to Mobility."
"Bonnie can now go for long walks with no discernible stiffness and really enjoy herself again."
"This is my favourite product in the whole range! I have my three dogs, George, Shu and Herbie on it and would not be without it. I am very conscious that I have very active, short legged, long backed breeds (cardigan corgi and Sealyham terriers) that I want to ensure that their joints are well supported. This does everything I could want from a joint supplement, has the best levels of active ingredients to support joint health I could find on the market and is a great price. My only complaint is the size of the pot - please can I buy it by the kilo!! 😊"
Royal St George, a 15.3hh Welsh Cob X TB. Owned by Sarah Ellis. Sarah has owned Royal St George for the past 18 years. He led a very active life, having taken part in pony club, riding club activities and eventing. Sarah then concentrated on dressage and Team Chasing. In 2006 they were involved in an accident with a car. Royal St George’s hind leg went through the windscreen, tearing his stifle open and straining tendons in his foreleg. Along with rest and care, Sarah fed MSM to support his recovery, which was remarkable in the incredibly short time of a little over a month. Both Sarah and her vet were thrilled with how quickly he bounced back to full health.
The girls washed Mickey with Show Off Shampoo before going to Pony Club and used Muck Off Stain Remover. I was amazed how it really faded the stable stain which was very bad and took yellowness out of his tail to make it whiter than white! Fab stuff especially for greys like Mickey! Nia Wyn Brammer
Katie’s nickname is ‘Hippo’ as she’s a complete mud magnet. Katie’s white legs are a nightmare for Lauren, especially when it’s showing season. Lauren says, “NAF Muck Off was so reasonably priced I decided to give it a go. I was completely blown away by the results, after many less successful attempts with products claiming to do a similar job. It’s affordable, incredible and saves me loads of time! NAF Muck Off is the only ‘stain removing’ product I use now. Would definitely recommend as a staple for your grooming box and an absolute must for anyone who shows!”
Natasha Adkinson-Para Dressage Rider on the National Lottery funded World Class Podium Potential Squad loves using NAF's Fab Four grooming products to keep her horses looking amazing! Many thanks, Eloise
“The muck off spray really is quite unbelievable! I event a Connemara pony called Spider and he has to live out in the summer months as he suffers with a dust allergy. It always seems to kick in at the turn of Spring and he can struggle somewhat with his airways and starts coughing. This year, we were prepared and rang NAF in advance and the lady recommended the Five Star Respiratory Boost. It did just that and seemed to really boost his immune as we had no coughing or airway problems and he has had a great season so far and has been placed in all his events. We also won the BE 80 at Somerford Park over the weekend which was just fantastic. I bath Spider in the 'Show Off' shampoo first then use the 'Shine On' at the competition. After bathing him he is rugged up and turned out, so as you can imagine his head is grubby in the morning but I sponge it over with the 'muck off' spray. They have been great products to use. I have attached a picture so you can see how clean he is!! Photo is courtesy of Action Replay Photography. Kate Collier
I work for Wynnstay in the Skipton branch and show horses in my spare time. I just wanted to let you know how fabulous the NAF range of cleaning/ grooming products are. My sister and I have 2 grey horses and we would be lost without your fantastic products. We have an Irish Draught Maxi Cob Mare called Newshams Mooncoin ( Bobbi) and a Irish Sports horse who is a Novice Heavyweight Hunter called Mount Rushmore ( Brody). Last September Bobbi was graded by the Irish Draught Society and was graded class 1 she received the highest conformation mare of all the mares graded and the 3 inspectors also commented on her presentation. In 2015 Bobbi had a very successful year and was featured in the Irish Draught Year book with a full page article, she also had a number of other photographs in the year book due to her successes at the Northern, Midlands and South West Irish Draught shows. 2016 has also started out very successful with Bobbi has so far winning 2 supreme of show championships, 6 champions and 3 reserve champions. A number of people ask how we get her so clean and her tail and legs so white! The key to her looking so sparkling clean is we use NAF Pimp my Pony on her body, and for her tail and legs we wash them with NAF Show OFF shampoo. The morning of the show we use NAF Muck OFF on any dirty bits and always put this in her tail even if it is clean as this makes the tail very white! We also regularly use the NAF Shine ON Grooming spray to keep their coats in fab condition. Brody is in his first season showing as Christina badly broke her ankle last year and therefore he was not broken until the end of 2015. Brody’s nickname at home is Mud Monster and he loves to be dirty – this is not helpful when he is 17.2hds and grey! I have attached a photo that shows a usual dirty photo of him. Brody has so far been to 2 shows and won at both these shows and also won a championship and reserve championship. At these shows a number of people asked how we get him so clean! Again we use NAF Show OFF shampoo, NAF Muck Off (on a daily basis) and NAF Shine on Grooming Spray. I have found that the grooming spray really helps to keep his coat clean. Over the years we have used all brands of cleaning and grooming products but NAF is by far the best! We would be lost without your products, they also smell fantastic, we also get a lot of comments at show on how clean and well the horses look. Christina and I are complete amateurs we buy our horses in Ireland as unbroken and usually a little wild 3 years old and break and produce them ourselves. Christina works as an Environmental Consultant specialising in flood risk and resilience so this years has been exceptionally busy for her but we always make time for our horses as they are our passion and it’s great to see they are looking their best and so glad NAF make such good products to help our horses look there best. I have attached photographs so you can see how great Bobbi and Brody look thanks to NAF. Nicola
I buy quite a lot of your products from Countrywide. I have been in love with the Muck Off spray! I use it on my mucky cob mare and her coat turns out so well! When she was clipped, the effects of the spray have left her with a very shiny coat and undercoat. I look forward to the summer to give them baths in the Show Off shampoo and use the other products more! I think my cob mare loves coming in mucky just so I can use it on her! Thank you for creating fantastic products. Katie Bennion.
"Our favourite thing from NAF is the Muck Off stan remover it is literally the best thing ever, it always gets his poo stains off!"
"I've recently bought a lead rein show hunter pony (he's grey!) and doesn't like to stay grey haha! I've been using the Muck Off stain remover foam everyday as a rule as he gets so many stains and it's like magic so easy to use and keeps him looking presentable for when the little girl comes to ride without having to be fully bathed. We're hoping he will contest the big classes next year with her. But so far your stain remover is honestly a life changer & will hopefully keep his coat grey and keep the yellow stains away. He's also having the farriers dressing on Day & night to keep his hooves in good condition ready for his shows Xx"
"My name's Katie and Jimmy is my pony of a life time. Being grey, Jimmy isn't the most helpful when it comes to keeping clean! For example at today's BS comp Jimmy had pooh stains all down his leg. 2 minutes later thanks to Muck Off - no stain!"
My absolute favourite top pick from NAF products is the Mud Gard Barrier Cream. It’s an absolute game changer! A tub is always in the cupboard and liberally applied to legs in the wetter colder months. His legs used to be an absolute nightmare to manage and the continual battle of keeping protected from the elements. This stuff works!
“I was at my wit’s end with a horse that had troublesome skin, I then discovered NAF’s Love The Skin He’s In range and thought I would try it. It instantly soothed the skin and made my horse comfortable again. Now it’s always the first thing I reach for when combatting any skin issues. Nothing works quite like it and neither my horses nor I could live without it, I have no idea how we coped before!” Emily Harris
My thoroughbred Signature had been fighting winter skin issues since late summer on his two white socks. Despite veterinary medication he continued to have very sore filled legs which is when I started feeding Mud Gard Supplement following advice from my local feed suppliers, The Feed Warehouse. I also applied Love the Skin He’s in Skin Salve to support the skin from the outside. I was amazed with the speed in which the supplement cleared up his legs and soothed the skin. Amazing supplement, I will be keeping my horse on this until the weather breaks and putting him back on it in the autumn. Jill Vasey (Durham) and Signature
Wolfy, a 32 year old TB mare owned by Elaine Rowland. At the age of 32, Wolfy is still ridden twice a week, and is a happy healthy horse thanks to NAF. I use NAF Off Citronella Spray during the summer; it lasts for ages and smells great!! Thank you for all your great products NAF! Elaine
"I own so many NAF products and I swear by all of them! I adore the NAF Off Citronella Spray and it works so well. We have a pony who is really summer sensitive to insects- we tried so many products but the only one we found that actually worked was the NAF off citronella spray! I would highly recommend this product to anyone who needs a spray that works. Love it!"
"From March to October we show our shire horses in hand all over the country. As we show our horses throughout the hot summer months it can be a challenge, as they are shown with their tails plaited up and they have to stand still in the line up for sometimes hours.
We have tried many different sprays over the summer months and have only found one that works that isn’t over priced! The NAF Citronella Spray works wonders on our horses. All day at the shows and at home in their field it works so well! We won’t be changing sprays anymore! It has taken us years to find the right spray and we finally found it! It smells lovely too!
Thames Oak Delilah (Didly) - yearling filly in this photo at 15.3hh. Here they both are at the National Shire Show in March this year."
"The NAF Off Spray works an absolute dream. One spray in each area and nothing bothers us. Best spray I have ever used."
I brought a bottle of Citronella Coat Spray from Charlie’s Stores and it came with a free Tag. I’m really impressed with it and it’s working fantastically, plus it smells beautiful. The Coat Spray leaves George with a gorgeous show ring shine and even works as a mane and tail spray. Five Star recommendation from me! Farrell Guy
"Brittania is a native Fell pony and lives in a semi-feral herd, conservation grazing on her native Cumbrian fells. Her lifestyle means rugs or daily sprays are impractical, but unfortunately Brit is sensitive to the midges, and they can make her life uncomfortable, particularly over summer. Nicola, her owner, noticed a difference when a NAF OFF Citronella Tag was plaited into her mane. ‘There was a real difference between her mane and tail, with much less rubbing to the mane compared to the tail, and compared to previous years. Needless to say, Brit is now sporting a Citronella Tag in her tail too!"
“I own a bay mare whom I event to BE100. I currently use a variety of NAF products such as the fly spray which is the best I've used. It really is essential when trying to perform a dressage test in hot conditions - you need to eliminate as many distractions as possible! I also use the NAF Silky Mane & Tail Detangler which I've had for a long time because it is very good value, just use a couple of sprays and its stays shiny and clean for at least a week and saves less time when prepping for shows! I also use other products such as the Plait It Up Spray and Magic calmer. This is my mare bliss is action with your products!” Phoebe Lagor
"My go-to NAF products are the NAF Off Deet Power Performance fly repellents and PROFEET Hoof Moist Black which are invaluable during the summer as well as Muck Off and Brighter Than White for the perils of owning a grey horse. I also love the Sheer Luxe Leather Balsam for my tack."
“Frankie is a 15.1hh Connemara who I have owned for ten years. He reacts badly to midge bites so I have to manage him very carefully to reduce the chance of him being bitten. He lives in a fly rug and mask but I found that he was still being bitten on his legs which he would then chew. Fly boots didn’t really work but spraying him with NAF OFF Deet Power Fly Spray all down his legs before being turned out at night has been an amazing solution!”
On warm days, Lauren makes sure that her horses are sprayed with NAF Off Deet Power Performance. She says that it is "great for keeping those annoying flies off them."
"I absolutely love the fly repellent spray, it works an absolute dream on all of my ponies especially my old man Harry who is usually covered but not anymore with this incredible spray. I will be sure to buy more of your fly spray for all of my ponies.”
"The fly spray works an absolute dream. One spray in each area and not a single fly in sight. Best fly spray I have ever used.”
Siepke’s Celtic, owned by Gail and Robyn Smith Says Gail, “A quick note to let you know about our first trip abroad on behalf of British Dressage GB in Moorsele. Robyn was selected to compete in the CDIO competition for ponies, and after a rather nervous team test, confidence grew and Robyn was the best placed of the British competitors in the Individual test, narrowly missing out on a place in the music final. In the third day’s test, she was again the highest placed of the British riders, finishing a creditable 8th place. We were very grateful for the effectiveness of your fly spray in the very hot weather.”
"NAF off extra effect was Dolly’s best friend last summer, it kept her protected and stress free from all the irritating flies and bugs, it will definitely be my number one product in my grooming kit this year."
"I am currently using NAF Electro Salts, as the most common loss of performance and tiredness is down to lack of salts. I also use NAF Off Extra Effect, as it is the most effective protection against flies, horse flies and insect menace.”
"I absolutely love the fly repellent spray, it works an absolute dream on all of my ponies especially my old man Harry who is usually covered but not anymore with this incredible spray. I will be sure to buy more of your fly spray for all of my ponies.”
"The fly spray works an absolute dream. One spray in each area and not a single fly in sight. Best fly spray I have ever used.”
Mr Melodious aka Google owned by Ali Galliers-Pratt Says Ali,I use the NaturalintX range whenever I need it, the whole range is fantastic, easy to use and apply. I always have it with me in the lorry!
I brought Laureyna in early 2013, a purebred Arabian, to be my western horse. She was in foal when we got her and she foaled a couple of months later but after that she changed. Her seasons were every two weeks. She would roll, kick and sweat as well as being extremely anxious, to handle her was difficult, she was "witchy", we couldn’t groom her, she hated being around us and showed us her teeth and legs more than anything else; she even took it out on her best friend in the field. I gave up trying to ride her (which was becoming impossible) and concentrated on making her well and happy again. After year of trying and numinous vet visits, different tests and the next step last resort a marble inside was all we had left to try, my heart was broken my wonderful kind mare who I hoped to retrain was in such discomfort and there was nothing I could do to help her. A friend said to try NAF Oestress. We brought the liquid to start her off on, with 40ml twice a day on a bad day and 15ml twice a day on a good day. She is now going well on 1 scoop a day of Oestress powder. She is now back to the lovely mare I fell for when went to visit her to buy. Her seasons are shorter and monthly, you hardly even notice she's in season. Her temperament is sweet and kind, her appearance is better with a beautiful shine to her once dull coat. She is a real pleasure to have on the yard and to be around, I am now riding her western which she loves, and enjoys when I just hop on her back with nothing on at all in the field. My dream of having a western horse is now becoming a reality and that’s thanks to Oestress, where I had nothing left there was NAF! Thank you! Dan Kalje and Laureyna
This is us last week! Lovely clear round! Since been on NAF oestress Bee is a lot more focused on her job and no more napping when in season! And not nearly as grumpy! Excellent product!
I bought Ivy 8 months ago, and within days I realised she was a very moody mare with her biting and box walking in the stable. In the school she was a nightmare; trying to tank off, bucking and generally being disruptive. I had all the usual things looked at: teeth, back, new saddle/bit/bridle and still no improvement. With my confidence ebbing away, I was so close to selling her, then someone suggested Oestress. As a last resort I started her on it and within 3 days the results were amazing (loading quantities for 10 days). Now 9 months on, she is a chilled out kissable girl. In the school she is brilliant; always trying her hardest to please me. She is a joy to own and ride. Thank you for making Oestress, it has saved our relationship. Ivy is on 2 scoops a day, all year round. Michelle
Mica had terrible moods when coming into and being in season, she was impossible to handle in her stable and would not allow you to tack her up and was generally nasty. Riding her was almost impossible; during this time our results at competitions were suffering. We were recommended Oestress by a friend and have never looked back; as you can see from the photo and the fact that we are doing so well the improvement is phenomenal. We have recommended this product to others and would have no hesitation in recommending it in the future. The picture is of Emily and Mica at the Affiliated Welsh Dressage Champs at Mount Ballan where she had the overall Silver Medal at Prelim, she was the highest placed BYRD at Prelim and highest scoring BYRD in the whole competition.

My mare Mary has been fed Oestress since January, her behaviour has become more consistent and her attitude towards work has improved, she is a lot more forward and happy. Rachel Holt
Uma my 6 year old, 17hh, WB x TB mare has been angelic, taking me to Lincoln, Oxford, and Keysoe to various championships in dressage and showjumping. I have owned her since September 2014 and previously rode her for breeder/owner. She has always had a loveable nature and very willing to learn with the odd baby tantrum, however this spring she had came out like unruly teenager, very grumpy and with embarrassing behaviour. It got so bad we couldn't hack out in company or compete or else she would have her tail up and be peeing! I was recommended NAF Five Star Oestress, not knowing much about the product was slightly unsure but we have given it a go and wow, I have my lovely Uma back! Her temperament has changed completely, she is so much happier and relaxed, and best of all she can control herself around other horses. I am very happy with the product - not only does it get me out of some interesting situations, my horse is a very happy one. Andrea & Uma
Carly Sargent & Fae "My favourite NAF product is Oestress because it's nice to know that your horse isn't going to be naughty or bite like she does when she is not on her Oestress!"
Ferne Fairfull "I have owned my 7 year old Dutch Warmblood since she was 2 years old. Every spring-autumn she became very naughty to handle and ride. I decided to try NAF Five Star Oestress to see if it would help. Help was an understatement as I have my golden girl back - she is calm, laid back and willing again. So I just wanted to say thank you for making such a brilliant supplement. Here are some pictures from the Scottish Championships where she won the Novice whilst on Oestress."
"Jemoon Rock Chick is a 6 year old three quarter tb quarter Cleveland bay that we bought direct from the jemoon stud last October. She was successfully shown as a foal at foot with her dam Newtownhen by the studs stallion Jemoon Celtic Warrior. We intend to bring her out as a novice riding horse/intermediate later this month. We find NAF Five Star Oestress easy to use and jemoon rock chick eats it readily. She is calm and sensible and we are going to continue to use naf five star oestress throughout the show season."
"We use Oestress with Smartie all of the time now! We've found that this year she's much more consistent and less stressed when she's on it."
“She was the devil before using Oestress. She is amazing now thanks to it!”
"This is Tolly who I love very much, my favourite two products are Oestress and D-itch because they work so well and the D-itch smells really nice."
"Since first having my mare, I found it incredibly hard to warm up at competitions, to the point of retiring before I'd even got in the dressage ring. When in season she was cranky and would resist to go in a straight line. I researched and popped her on Oestress. From that day on, I never looked back. My marks improved, she got straighter in her movements, I didn't actually notice when she was in season. I've stayed on this product for the four years she has now been with me."
"I have been loving using Oestress this year finding it helps to keep a much more level head on my mare and we can continue as we would in the winter."
"NAF oestress is the perfect supplement for my mare Missy. It balances her hormones and makes sure she is always top of her game."
“We use NAF Five Star Oestress on all of our showjumping mares as we find it helps keep them relaxed throughout their body and in their temperament.”
I use NAF Oestress powder for a just backed 4 year old by Don Nobless out of a Worldly (Weltmeyer) as well as for her half-sister by Dark De Niro. Oestress keeps them level headed and able to focus on work all year round.
Gracie came home to me off the track at 6 years old. She was underweight, highly strung, bolshie when handled and spooky when ridden. Her happy place was the field and it used to take me up to 4 hours to catch her as she would only come in when every other horse on the yard was in. Her hormones were raging, even out of season she formed very strong attachments to other horses meaning leaving the yard was almost impossible. I tried other supplements which did not seem to work. One day a representative from NAF came to the yard to talk about their range of products. She was extremely informative and patient when I had so many questions regarding what products would best support Gracie’s hormone balance. She recommended Oestress. Once the initial loading dose took effect the difference was amazing. Gracie can now process situations in a more logical manner and very rarely reverts to her normal flight behaviour. She holds her weight well and is in excellent all round health. With NAF’s Oestress, we are now able to enjoy a summer of fun rides, showjumping and even a bit of dressage. Cheers NAF!
My mare Pantywaun Sioux is on NAF Oestress. She’s currently competing at British Dressage elementary level and is aiming towards medium next season. Oestress helps to keep her very level headed, to be honest it’s a godsend, especially when competing.
Thyne Gale is a typical thoroughbred mare and NAF Oestress keeps her very level and non stressy, I couldn’t be without it. She is an all-rounder who mainly events and Oestress definitely makes the difference.
NAF Oestress plays a fundamental role in the performance and training of my mares on the yard. I find it helps them relax and focus on the job in hand. You really can’t beat a good mare for competition.
We use an awful lot of the NAF products, they are great!! We have a yard of up to 18 horses ranging from homebred foals to 4* international event horses. We’ve been using NAF Oestress for our mares for nearly two years now and highly recommend the product. I first decided to try NAF Oestress on my homebred novice event mare to help keep her level throughout the event season. She’s an incredibly tough little horse who only shows mareish tendencies when travelling, however I wanted to make sure she was feeling on top form no matter what stage of her season she was going through. As a matter of course I decided to put the other mares on the yard on this product and it’s something we use all year round.
When we first set out we would be more cautious of owning mares. However, over the years we have grown to favour them. NAF Oestress has helped keep them on top form and easier to handle around the stables. We highly recommend it for both maintenance and to help with peak hormonal cycles.
NAF Oestress has changed my mare for the better! She is so much more comfortable in herself and rideable during her seasons. It has really helped us both keep training without all the mareish behaviour. She was so unhappy during her seasons, sometimes she would refuse to move! Now we have none of that behaviour. I would 100% recommend Oestress to anyone with a mare showing even just slight discomfort during her seasons - it has been a godsend for us.
“Oestress has settled Fern’s seasons and temperament down so much, she's a much happier girlie.”
Bee is the boss but her grumpiness has gone now when in season thanks to NAF Oestress.
Dancer is skewbald but with all the attributes of a chestnut mare! Thankfully NAF Oestress keeps her in check.
"I absolutely love Oestress, it makes Rosie so much more manageable and it takes away a lot of stress from both of us so that we can concentrate on the fun stuff."
"I feed Oestress to Angel because I find it has really helped her hormones and how she acts when she is in season. She would try to bite you whenever you went near her but since she has been on Oestress she hasn’t tried to bite me once. She is a lot happier in herself."
"I love Oestress and would never be without it; because of that it’s a permanent fixture in our feed room which we recommend to everyone with mare with any hormonal issues. Zara loves Oestress because it means she can feel like herself all year round but more than that, Oestress is a product that works and understands the complexities of a great mare."
"Lola has been utterly transformed with the help of this game-changing supplement!"
"Our gorgeous mare Holly has really benefitted from Oestress, we saw a difference in just 48 hours!! We wouldn’t be without it now and recommend it to everyone, it's an amazing product."
"Oestress has really helped my mare who has had some particularly strong seasons this year."
Since feeding Oestress Ginger is so much happier and less ‘stressy’ and the tension is hugely improved. Oestress has been a real tonic, can’t believe the difference. Photo Copyright: Mark Beaumont
"This is me showjumping my little mare Rosie. She is fed on Oestress & GastriAid and is looking and feeling amazing. Thank you NAF!"
I use Oestress all year round for my mare, it’s made a huge difference to her. Knowing she’s comfortable gives me peace of mind.
I have been feeding Oestress to my mare Pandora as she gets very sharp when she's in season. It has helped her no end and now I swear by it as it keeps her in top form regardless of whether she's in season or not. I barely notice when she comes into season now; she's not only more relaxed but she's much easier to handle and is a lot less stressed. She used to get very attached to all other horses and could never be left on her own without starting to box walk and worked up. Now she is more than happy to stand by herself. #Oestress #Forallseasons
"After having 2 years of what seemed to be an endless cycle and a very 'flirty' mare, I decided to try Oestress. I was sceptical, I will admit, but WOW, she is so much calmer and I am keeping her on a continued dose."
"Chanel has just turned 8, I've had her from being a yearling. She has just had the worst season I've ever known - she was dangerous to ride, rearing, bucking, so stressed. I was recommended Oestress and took advice from my vet, after 2 weeks i have my girl back."
"When I first got Missy she was young and as she got older, as mares do, she got more hormonal and I found it difficult to keep up with her mood swings! After lots of supplements we found the perfect one, NAF Oestress, I have never looked back! Thank you NAF!"
"My horse has always struggled since a young age when in season. She would be hard to handle, very defensive with other horses coming close to her but since being on Oestress she is an angel and I would highly recommend to others."

"I use Oestress for Miranda on a daily basis and notice a difference if she does not have it. I find she is less grumpy and I am not so black and blue with bruises, she is also happier to ride and easier to handle."
"I absolutely adore the Oestress that I have used for my mare! Me and Toffee had a very sticky start due to her marish nature, however we started using Oestress which completely saved us! She is now the sweetest pony you would meet, so relaxed and not seasonal thanks to Oestress!"
"Myself & Grace wouldn't be where we are today without the help of NAF Oestress. Prior to starting Grace on Oestress, she was such an anxious mare, proving very difficult to train, but after a month on Oestress she was a changed mare! NAF Oestress is now our daily ritual!"
"Oestress has been fantastic for Freya! She becomes very anxious in the stable and gets quite uncomfortable in her lumbar region when in season. Since using Oestress she is a lot more comfortable and less anxious. I feel it gives her that extra support she needs during the time she feels uncomfortable......if you could make a human version that would be great and I would be first in line to buy it! She really is a different horse on Oestress! She is now on Superflex having seen how well the Oestress works!"
"We recommend Five Star Oestress to everyone as it has honestly made such a difference to our moody mare!"
“Penny is a seven year old mare who lives in a small herd of geldings and I find her behaviour during her seasons to be most undesirable. I was recommended NAF Five Star Oestress and after only a few weeks I noticed a big difference. I have been using it for over a year now and Penny is much happier, calmer and content with a positive attitude towards her work. I highly recommend this product!”
“My mare used to get very uncomfortable while in season and she would become stressy in her stable. We tried her on NAF Five Star Oestress and it worked so quickly, she was like a new pony, very content and happy. We also use NAF Five Star Magic calmer on a maintenance dose in winter because she can get a bit fiery. It gives my mum peace of mind and allows me to hack on my own because Layla used to be a very anxious pony. Thank you NAF!”
“Oestress is fabulous! I feed it every year during the spring/summer period and it really does make a huge difference to Shania. She is so much more focused and manageable to ride.”
Miss Congeniality (Genie) is a 10 year old unregistered Welsh Cob who I have owned since a 4 year old. Initially shown with good success at local level we then turned to dressage. She is a typical opinionated welsh mare – if she doesn’t want to do it you do not stand a chance and you have to convince her that it is actually on her terms. My local tack shop, Pinkers Saddlery, recommended Oestress to me a few years ago and I decided to try her on the liquid. Since feeding Oestress she has been so much easier to work with and our results at dressage have improved. We have been to the BRC Dressage Championships at Royal Windsor in 2012 where we came 7th, the BRC National Championships at Lincoln in 2012, and most recently in 2014. This year we were in the Prelim Riding Test where we won our arena on 80%, something I doubt would have happened without Oestress as when I have run out I have noticed the difference in her. Thank you NAF!
Esme is a twelve year old British Warmblood, we enjoy happy hacking these days with a bit of competing locally when we get the chance. I had trouble with tacking up and getting on as Esme was so tense and felt ‘cold-backed’. I had never thought of using a hormonal supplement as there seemed no particular pattern to her behaviour, so had not connected the unpredictability with her seasons. I was sceptical of any hormonal supplements but cannot believe the difference in her behaviour which I noticed within a week of feeding Oestress liquid. I can now go for a hack and know that I am going to get back to the yard in one piece! I can see that her whole body has relaxed and she is much happier in general. Charlotte Walters
"Oestress keeps the Angel in Angelina. We feed the solution. It really makes a HUGE difference. From handling Angie on the ground to when being ridden. She is just so much more comfortable in herself."
“We use NAF Five Star Oestress on all of our showjumping mares as we find it helps keep them relaxed throughout their body and in their temperament.”

"My lovely mare Grace has been on Oestress for over a year now and I can honestly say she is so much happier in herself. In December 2021 she was proving very difficult to bring back into work, struggling to focus, always anxious and not willing to listen. I started her on Oestress Liquid in January 2022 and within one month I saw such a change in her attitude and willingness to learn. In 2022 we managed to compete at BE80 successfully and at various other events! She looks and feels incredible and I am truly grateful that this product is on the market." Photo Credit: iWill Photo

?NAF Five Star Oestress is a must for all year round. It?s got the Sylvie seal of approval!?
“We love NAF Five Star Oestress and feed it all year round. After a combination of feeding Oestress and increased daylight hours, my 26 year old is back to her sunny self. I've always fed the liquid and she seems to love the taste, NAF customer support is also very helpful indeed.”

Scarlet, a 4 year old mare by Dick Z ridden by NAFs Five Star Rider Johnathan Bowman. Says Johnathan “Scarlet has only been broken in a few months and this is her at her first show having been fed Oilovite, popping round a little jumping course. I think this photo shows her potential, and she looks fantastic. She was really well behaved considering there was so much going on!”
"I have to say I have been very impressed with Omega Oil which I bought for my horse Merlin. He is 22 and has Cushings. I wanted him to gain a bit of weight and condition without increasing feed. His coat looks amazing and it has certainly done the trick. Merlin is the black horse in the photo, looking super shiny."
My horse Triumph has been fed Optimum since September, we bought the first batch after Amy (my daughter) was part of the winning Riding Test Team at the British Riding Club Champs at Lincoln which was very kindly sponsored by NAF. The first picture is of Triumph at her first dressage test as a very weedy 5 year old in May 2013, and the second is of her at Bury Farm in late October 2014 when she won the Junior Open Dressage to Music. I think it's a good example of what correct feed and work can do for a horse!! The 16.1hh recently-broken horse we bought in Dec 2012 is now a strapping 17hh plus and still growing!! As well as doing them good, the horses love Optimum and search through their chop looking for the pellets, the only difficulty is preventing the cats from eating it before we can get the bowls into the horses' stables! Nicky Small
I was recommended Optimum Feed Balancer last year for a horse who would always struggle to keep condition on over the winter, this in turn meant he would start the season looking poor so he was already at a disadvantage. Reluctant to change his feed drastically as he is very sensitive and sharp, I tried Optimum and the results have been outstanding. He has started this season looking much stronger, is carrying more weight and his coat is gleaming! Thank you so much everyone at NAF for your great advice!

My ex- racehorse Rio, after a bad winter and constant battle with digestive discomfort was in poor condition. The difference even after day one of being fed Optimum was noticeable, she seemed to have a healthier appetite and she put on condition within the first week. Here she is before, and after just eight weeks. Emily Setchell.
"Meet Pinocchio, now at the tender age of 19 thanks to Superflex and Optimum he is still loving his jumping! 10miles all 50 jumps completed and all in an hour and a half. Not bad for an old man."
Sam Richards
All of my ponies are fed Five Star Optimum Balancer, that's all they get, they are looking so shiny and performing fantastically! Susan Skeggs. With thanks to Lucy Mason photography and Mark Smith for images.
I feed Optimum Balancer to all the horses in my care to ensure they get the most out of their feed by optimising their digestion. This is reflected in their coats, which have all looked fantastic this year! Emily Baldwin
This is my 27 year old mare Chloe, we both had a crashing fall 18 months ago where I badly broke both my wrists and we thought we might lose her. Now we are going from strength to strength, she is thriving and looks and feels fantastic with the help of Optimum Balancer. The balancer helps keep her coat looking fab and her joints supple - her bascule may not be perfect anymore but she can still tuck her feet up! Naomi Stevens
We have been using NAF products for over a year now and this last season has been our most successful to date. To keep their diets balanced and their coats gleaming, every horse on our yard has Five Star Optimum Balancer included in their feed. We have found that the horses have held their condition excellently, even during the busiest times of the season. With thanks to NAF, the horses are all looking great! Alice Barnes
I started feeding Optimum Balancer to Cambridge, my three year old gelding, as I changed yards and had less grazing, hence he needed a bit more feed. Optimum Balancer allows me to make sure he's getting what he needs but means I don't have to pump loads of food in and have him bouncing off the walls... winner! I have enclosed a couple of images of my beautifully shiny boy since feeding Optimum, almost too beautiful to clip! Joanne Ward
As a mounted games rider, I need to ensure that my ponies are fed the best to perform at top level of their sport. My best pony Sally (aged 26) has never felt or looked so good. With lots of competing, training and travelling involved both in the UK and abroad her condition, appearance and attitude remains perfect. I highly recommend NAF Five Star Optimum Feed Balancer. Sam Clements (Yorkshire based mounted games rider)
I only feed Alice unmolassed, high fibre feeds as starchy feeds make her too hot. Alice is 6 years old and working at medium level, over the winter I felt that towards the end of our schooling sessions she was starting to feel a little flat and thought perhaps her basic feed was not providing her with the energy levels she required for her level of work. NAF suggested I try Optimum, this provides essential vitamins and minerals as well as helping the horse to digest the fibre we feed more effectively. I have been feeding Alice Optimum for eight weeks now and I am very happy with the results. She is now able to maintain her energy levels throughout a whole schooling session and her coat is beautiful. I also feed Electro Salts after a hard work out and find this really helps her to stay on top form. Teal Anthoney Photo credit to: Malcolm Snelgrove Photography
"I have been using NAF products and supplements for over twelve years. NAF offer a complete range of products from supplements to horse care. Our horses come first and need to perform at their best, that's why I choose, trust and rely on NAF. Five Star Optimum Balancer is the first thing that is put into the feed bowls in the morning. It is great to know that the horses are getting all their essential vitamins and maximising the nutritional value of their feeds, as well as optimising the health and efficiency of the digestive system. Since starting my horses on Optimum I have noticed how well they look in their coats and are maintaining condition better whilst in competition work. James Sommerville.

Phoenix is holding his weight now because the Magic has taken the edge off him stressing which causes him to drop weight quickly. He has calmed down in some of his mannerisms being on the calmer and the Five Star Optimum has really improved his overall body condition and coat shine. Angela & Phoenix:
This is Douglas winning the Irish Draft Class at Heathfield agricultural show. As you can see the NAF Plait It Up spray works wonders and obviously the Optimum balancer is super. Claire Limburn
"I started using Optimum Balancer on a recommendation. My horses coats are soft and shiny, they're glowing! My older horse (the Dun) is 16 yrs old and has a 'look at me', I feel great aurora about him. I also use your Superflex for my Dun and he's never felt better. I started using Optimim Balancer on a recomendation from your Rep. At first I was a little skeptial, but was I wrong! My horses coats are dander free, soft and shiny, they're glowing. My older horse (the picture I have attached of the Dun, he's 16 yrs old) has a look at me, I feel great auora about him with no fizzyness at all. We've just had a field change where I'd normally have to add a gut balancer but haven't had to this time! Thank you so much for the push to give it a try, I won't be going back to what I was using beforehand. I also use your Superflex for my Dun and hes never felt better."
"I started my pony Aélia on Optimum balancer early 2018 after we found out she had a thoracic lordosis causing her to go lame over a period of 5 months. I wanted a product to help her keep the muscular weight on whilst we strengthened her topline and it was suggested that I try Optimum. I’m really pleased that I did as it helped with her overall body condition throughout her recovery, the winter months and the following competing season, not to mention that it has added a real shine to her coat. Thank you NAF! Here’s a picture of Aélia and I at the French pony jumping nationals. We also use the MuckOff foam which is ace for white ponies!"
"Jo suggested I swap Excel's feed balancer to the NAF Optimum Balancer. Despite Excel being stabled throughout winter he looks and feels better than ever. Thanks NAF."
NAF Five Star Optimum Concentrated Feed Balancer is great all round supplement that's easy to feed. It contains great ingredients which give all the health benefits that normally come in several supplements. Optimum covers all bases for me and Shaunie looks fabulous on it, it was such an easy choice.
Since being fed NAF GastriAid and Five Star Optimum Balancer, I have found Morph to be less stressed when he is being ridden and he is now the favourite escort for the younger horses when we’re hacking. Feeding him Optimum allows me to know that he is receving all of the correct nutrients he needs to be healthy. Five Star Respirator Boost is also an essential for Morph during the winter months.
NAF Five Star Optimum Balancer makes the world of difference to our ponies keeping them healthy throughout the year and making sure they get all the nutrients they need. My daughter Macy loves her showjumping and it keeps our ponies in perfect condition.
Trevoulter Mr Darcy is a five year old Hanoverian x Welsh gelding who is a good doer. Being fed NAF Optimum balancer and a scoop of Hi Fi he has plenty of energy and looks well. I’m in no doubt the balancer is giving him all the nutrients he needs to work and also develop muscle. He used to be a bit girthy but this has gone since feeding Optimum. No coat products were used, just a bath and groom!
Julie at Windmill Feeds with her horse Jack the Fell Pony Townend Pippin aka Jack. 12 yr old Fell Pony gelding. Jack arrived at the stud as a 6month old colt destined to be the new stallion at the stud. He was turned away to grow up. At 3 he was turned out with his first mares, with great success. By the time he was 7 he was brought in from the field as now his daughters had reach age. This is how he stayed untill he was 91/2 yrs old (keeping the cows company). The elderly owner finally decided to have him gelded. 3 months later he was finally turned out again. He failed to thrive and became ill. Back into the stable he went. Gradually he improved with the help of NAF immuforte and was turned out again. At this point the stud owner became too ill to keep the stud going and it was decided to disperse the stock. All that was left were Jack and his youngest daughter Justa. June 2015 Jack left the farm by tractor and cattle trailer to attend his first in-hand show. (He had not left the farm since he arrived at 6months old). In a well attended local show he came 2nd, and found his new owner. Ellice Johnson fell head over heals in love with him. She persuaded her parents to let her have him on loan to break him in (he was 11 yrs old) as a summer project. His charm won everyone over and Ellice became his official owner at Christmas 2015. So time to take him out to see the world. Heathfield show was the plan. So for 3 months leading upto the show he was fed NAF linseed oil, and show prep bathed in NAF wash and show dark coat shampoo. The polishing began. Silky mane and tail to tame his wild mane and tail, oil it well on his muzzle and eyes, paint it black on his hooves and the final touch of Razzle Dazzle them all over Townend Pippin was ready for the ring. As the light caught his coat he shone much like his personality. He was a total gentlemen and foot perfect. Placing a respectable 2nd in his class. Happy smiles all round. The next step is to get him shiny enough to visit HRH The Queen as 90 Fell ponies provide a guard of honour at Windsor Castle in celebration of the Queen's 90th Birthday. Fingers crossed for Ellice and Jack.
I work for Wynnstay in the Skipton branch and show horses in my spare time. I just wanted to let you know how fabulous the NAF range of cleaning/ grooming products are. My sister and I have 2 grey horses and we would be lost without your fantastic products. We have an Irish Draught Maxi Cob Mare called Newshams Mooncoin ( Bobbi) and a Irish Sports horse who is a Novice Heavyweight Hunter called Mount Rushmore ( Brody). Last September Bobbi was graded by the Irish Draught Society and was graded class 1 she received the highest conformation mare of all the mares graded and the 3 inspectors also commented on her presentation. In 2015 Bobbi had a very successful year and was featured in the Irish Draught Year book with a full page article, she also had a number of other photographs in the year book due to her successes at the Northern, Midlands and South West Irish Draught shows. 2016 has also started out very successful with Bobbi has so far winning 2 supreme of show championships, 6 champions and 3 reserve champions. A number of people ask how we get her so clean and her tail and legs so white! The key to her looking so sparkling clean is we use NAF Pimp my Pony on her body, and for her tail and legs we wash them with NAF Show OFF shampoo. The morning of the show we use NAF Muck OFF on any dirty bits and always put this in her tail even if it is clean as this makes the tail very white! We also regularly use the NAF Shine ON Grooming spray to keep their coats in fab condition. Brody is in his first season showing as Christina badly broke her ankle last year and therefore he was not broken until the end of 2015. Brody’s nickname at home is Mud Monster and he loves to be dirty – this is not helpful when he is 17.2hds and grey! I have attached a photo that shows a usual dirty photo of him. Brody has so far been to 2 shows and won at both these shows and also won a championship and reserve championship. At these shows a number of people asked how we get him so clean! Again we use NAF Show OFF shampoo, NAF Muck Off (on a daily basis) and NAF Shine on Grooming Spray. I have found that the grooming spray really helps to keep his coat clean. Over the years we have used all brands of cleaning and grooming products but NAF is by far the best! We would be lost without your products, they also smell fantastic, we also get a lot of comments at show on how clean and well the horses look. Christina and I are complete amateurs we buy our horses in Ireland as unbroken and usually a little wild 3 years old and break and produce them ourselves. Christina works as an Environmental Consultant specialising in flood risk and resilience so this years has been exceptionally busy for her but we always make time for our horses as they are our passion and it’s great to see they are looking their best and so glad NAF make such good products to help our horses look there best. I have attached photographs so you can see how great Bobbi and Brody look thanks to NAF. Nicola
“I love the Paint it Black Polish it dries so quickly and is proper black, it looks really smart and the Show Off Shampoo is so easy to use and Maggie shines more than her competitors!! We are working out way through your range!!”
"The Queens Ladies recently won Best Turned Out. I absolutely love Plait it Up, Razzle Dazzle Them, Make your Mark and Paint it Black - I'd be lost without them when we go racing."
“I love the NAF products and have always used NAF products but our love for them have just grown!!! Well yesterday after using your products (Brighter than White, Razzle Dazzle Them, Make your Mark, Paint it Clear, Oil it Well) me and my pony came Supreme of Show!” Alice Frodsham

Paint It Clear - This stuff is so cool! It makes Apple's hoofs look incredible and it lasts even after riding! It makes me and Apple feel super glam when riding. Thanks Harry!
Charlotte Richardson & Danny aka Norway Dance “My favourite NAF products are the Lavender Wash, Paint It Clear and the Shine On Grooming Spray they really do work a treat and at a brilliant price too, I use them all the time at shows and at home! He is a picture of me and Danny (Norway dance) competing in Wales in the Home Pony International qualifying for scope too!”
"I love to use the balm to give his dry paws a pedicure!"
"His pads had deep friction burns after too much running around in and out of the water and Pet'Skin Balm helped them heal so quickly."
"I personally want to thank you for the particularly brilliant Pet'Skin Balm. The almost immediate difference in the condition of Boo's nose has been amazing. I had tried and tested almost everything on the market and nothing helped her like your product. She is so much more comfortable now. I will be recommending your products from now on. Thank you again."
"The balm is lovely and rich, I use it on all three of my dogs' paws on a regular basis to keep them soft and supple to help prevent cracking. It is also great to put on any little scrapes they get when they play, or when pushing through rough undergrowth. I have also used it on myself and it makes a great handcream!"
Monty is nice and clean after being bathed in NAF’s Pimp my Pony shampoo! We will definitely be using this again. Lauren Povey
Natasha Adkinson-Para Dressage Rider on the National Lottery funded World Class Podium Potential Squad loves using NAF's Fab Four grooming products to keep her horses looking amazing! Many thanks, Eloise
'Mum bought me some Pimp my Pony the other day and I must say its brilliant! I washed his body in Pimp my Pony, legs in the Show Off and then sprayed with the Shine On spray and my ginger horse has never looked so clean! Great products.' Hollie Clarke
Candy is grey and a very mucky grey at that! I have recently started using and loving 'Pimp my Pony' shampoo. Everyone always comments on how clean her tail is, I also use your grooming products and treats.
Pimp My Pony brought up Romeo's white's really white and gave him a really good showing ring shine finish, a 5* product! Muck Off stain remover is literally a life saver for last minute stain removing at show's! Quick and simple and fast acting Jay Page

"I just love pink pimp my pony shampoo which not only makes the horse have a super shiny coat but makes them smell sooooo nice!"
"Just wanted to show you a how shiny my gorgeous show hunter is after being bathed with NAF Pimp My Pony! Look at her sparkle!! Thanks!! She looks gorgeous and smells gorgeous too! Her posh name is Swallow Hurst Tyra - Tyra to her pals."
"I always swear on your Muck Off stain remover to keep my grey more white and less green! I also have him on your Five Star Superflex, it has made such a difference! He had to have a year out for work last year so I really swear on this product to keep him on top form! The Pimp My Pony shampoo is a favourite of mine and keeps my horses not just looking amazing but smelling amazing!"
"I love Pimp my Pony Shampoo as it gives my pony a good shine to his coat and gets away all the stubborn muck in winter.”
"My pre show routine would not be without NAF Pimp my Pony. It gets our little Welsh Section A mare sparkly white and smelling amazing. I would not be without it in my show preparation kit, it’s amazing!"
This is Douglas winning the Irish Draft Class at Heathfield agricultural show. As you can see the NAF Plait It Up spray works wonders and obviously the Optimum balancer is super. Claire Limburn

"I like the NAF Plait it up product because it makes plaiting a lot easier, and the plaits a lot neater!"
"The results of using NAF Plait it up before and during the wettest days hunting imaginable! Highly recommend product for keeping stray hairs in place and giving your plaits that finished look!"
"It does exactly what it says on the bottle! Makes plaiting so much easier due to the non-greasy grip the spray provides, and also keeps plaits looking neat and tidy even after a dressage test. No more wispy bits - this spray helps me to turn Tango out to perfection!"
"I thought I’d send a photo of George looking his best at a show after using your Plait It Up Spray!"
"I use a lot of NAF Products. My favourites are the Silky Mane & Tail Detangler and Plait It Up Spray. Plait It Up helps my plaits stay neat and tidy and create show stopping plaits every-time. The Detangler helps my mane and tail stay knot free as-well as being soft and shiny."
"The Queens Ladies recently won Best Turned Out. I absolutely love Plait it Up, Razzle Dazzle Them, Make your Mark and Paint it Black - I'd be lost without them when we go racing."

"I tried Hoof Moist on a whim and I am really impressed with it. I have been using it on my barefoot Thoroughbred whose feet chip easily and a new horse whose previous owners let her feet get into a terrible state, cracked and brittle. I have been using an expensive hoof ointment for several years at almost £20 a pot which hasn't helped and doesn't stay on whereas Hoof Moist is £12 for around the same amount and I am much more impressed! Hoof Moist stays on the hoof much more effectively. Pleased with the results so far. Thank you!" Natasha P Sikyta
"I love NAF products. At the moment I am using your Cooling Wash, Warming Wash, Electro Salts, GastriAid, Tack Cleaner and Hoof Moist! NAF Cleanse and Condition and Soft Soap is keeping my tack looking it’s very best!"
"Event rider Matt’s favourite NAF product is the PROFEET Hoof Moist. He uses this, daily, on all his horses. Matt says that it not only makes his horses feet look smart, but Hoof Moist also helps to improve and maintain hoof condition. As well as this, Hoof Moist is very quick and easy to apply, making it an essential must have product for any yard."

“PROFEET Pellets and PROFEET Hoof Moist Natural have saved my showjumper mare from very huge trouble. See the results after 5 month of NAF and we are continuing!”
I have trialled PROFEET on a sports horse that has quite weak feet. I am impressed by the results at this early stage, the horse has retained his shoes through this shoeing cycle and the quality of horn has significantly improved. I have attached photos of his latest shoeing. Marc Jerram BSc Hons AWCF Master Farrier
Harry has weak hooves due to metabolic issues he encountered at the age of 4. We have put him in heart bar shoes and fed PROFEET Liquid to aid with hoof growth and strength. My farrier made the comment in October, "What have you changed in Harry's diet because his feet are much stronger and have grown quite considerably! Whatever it is, you need to continue with it."
One of my favourite NAF products is NAF Five Star PROFEET because it keeps my horse's feet in the best condition to perform at his best, and NAF Five Star Magic enables me to have my horse's full concentration when performing at his peak.
"I use Pro Feet Liquid, as recommended by my wonderful farrier. My horse is a TB and needs all the help he can get when it comes to feet! His feet have improved significantly since I started him on it last summer and my farrier is very happy."
"My horse had typical TB feet so I decided to take his shoes off for a rest. In only 5-6 months there is already such an improvement. My farrier even noticed that, what hoof Goose has grown, is less but better/ thicker quality. I cant back this product enough.”
My favourite NAF product is PROFEET which I have been feeding to my horse Morris for 5 years, it ensures quality hoof growth and this is important as no foot no horse. Both myself and my farrier have seen the difference in his hooves. It also reassures me to know he's getting what he needs, it is a product that does the job and is one of the only ones my farrier recommends.
I have been feeding PROFEET Powder and then Pellets for the last 4 years to my 16.2h gelding. When we bought him his hooves were very cracked and brittle, they were growing very little between shoeing and it was a struggle for my farrier to keep putting shoes on him! After six months on PROFEET Pellets his hoof growth had improved no end and within a year his feet were fantastic, it was almost like they had never had a problem. I couldn't recommend NAF products enough! Rhianna Jones
When I got Davey, his feet were terrible, they were very flat, wide and weak! We tried specialist shoes, pads, no shoes, anything we could do to try to get his feet in a better state. He was having to have his feet done every four weeks and shoes were falling off weekly due to his hoof being so weak. For around the last 8 months I have been using PROFEET and alongside the wonderful effort from my farrier, Davey now has good feet, shoes are staying on well into 6 weeks and not falling off. The difference in the quality of his hoof is brilliant. I have never been one for supplements but I would HIGHLY recommend anyone to use PROFEET if they are having trouble with their horses hooves!! Thank you NAF! Karen Nicholls
My name is Mark and back in 2011 I bought my first horse Kingfisher, he was a very green five year old but had bags of potential and a great attitude. That winter I hacked him out when I was home from college to get him going, then summer came round. I had already decided I wanted to event myself and he may just be the horse to get me there, but I knew I had to get him out to see the world of competition. Unfortunately, being a thoroughbred cross he had poor and very dry feet and the Appaloosa in him meant he had spongy soles, this made no difference in winter but in summer I was very lucky to keep shoes on him more than two weeks at a time. Not only this, but every time he travelled and was on different ground it meant his shoes would either become loose or cast. It proved to be a nightmare, I couldn't get him out as much as I wanted, his fittening and schooling work was drastically reduced. I knew I need to improve his feet if I was ever going to event so I asked at the local tack shop, they spoke to one of your Area Sales Managers and they advised PROFEET. I have been feeding PROFEET for three years now and the difference my farrier and I have seen in his feet is just amazing; he now goes the full 6 weeks between shoeing even in summer and travels around Yorkshire and surrounding areas very rarely losing shoes. It has enabled us to train and compete regularly. I would highly recommend PROFEET to anybody who is having foot and shoeing issues! Mr M Holmes. Photography: GROSSICK PHOTOGRAPHY
"NAF Five Star PROFEET pellets worked wonders for my TB ex Racer. He has poor foot growth and condition, and we had to take his shoes off last month. My farrier was so shocked to see the vast improvement in just 5 weeks! More growth and better condition!"
"My 6yr old ex racehorse Sam has poor foot growth/condition. My farrier recommended him to be barefoot for a few months. I tried NAF PROFEET Pellets & just 5 weeks on my farrier could NOT believe the vast improvement! More growth & better condition! :)"
Without a doubt PROFEET has allowed me to keep Desi in work; no hoof no horse is a very true saying and PROFEET has saved Desi’s hooves. Last summer, Desi was pulling his shoes off on a weekly basis and we made the decision to try keeping him barefoot. He was already on the PROFEET Pellets and we'd seen an improvement in hoof growth which my farrier had commented on too, but his shoe pulling was causing problems. Once the shoes were off we added the Farrier Solution and Rock Hard to Desi's hoofcare routine and have not looked back. His old shod hoof has nearly fully grown out & his foot balance is so much better.
“Court Bank Farm won the SEIBS DIY Livery Yard of the Year and I chose PROFEET Pellets for my 13 year old TB as part of the prize. Continued to buy them and this is the result so far. You can see the improvement in a defined ring! Thrilled!”
“I absolutely love the NAF PROFEET Pellets and the Farrier Solution! My horse has had historically terrible feet, and struggles to keep shoes on, but not any more! My farrier is overjoyed, and my horse is sound and happy. Thanks NAF!”
“PROFEET Pellets and PROFEET Hoof Moist Natural have saved my showjumper mare from very huge trouble. See the results after 5 month of NAF and we are continuing!”

"DJ has always had to be shod in front due to poor feet, since being on PROFEET, the quality has improved so much he can now happily go unshod. This has not only improved the appearance it is also cheaper! His hooves seem to be growing much better and stronger, the hoof quality has improved greatly. We would recommend PROFEET to anyone looking for support with their horse's feet. Thank you NAF!"
Zac, owned by Mrs C Eddolls. Shane Hobbs, DIP WCF has been shoeing Zac for the past three years. He grew a very poor quality of horn and it was prone to cracking and crumbling, despite a well-balanced diet, additives, oils and dressings. Shane was having to shoe him every four weeks. Mrs Eddolls decided to try feeding PROFEET. Says Shane "Now he's on PROFEET, Zac grows a far better quality of horn, and we are able to leave six to eight weeks between shoeings." Says Mrs C Eddolls "Within three months of using PROFEET, Zac's hooves were transformed! I can't recommend the product highly enough; it's brilliant and completely lives up to it's promise. Thank you NAF!"
I own a young dressage horse with poor feet. She kept losing shoes and the farrier said if we lost another he wouldn't be able to replace it as her feet were weak and with repeatedly losing the shoe, had broken a lot of foot. He suggested we buy a hoof supplement, as although she grows foot it is not good quality. I have a good friend who owns Wheatley Farm Shop and she is a NAF stockist. She recommended trying ProFeet as it worked for her horse. I have been amazed at the difference in the quality of the hoof that has begun to grow down. There has been no other change in her diet except the supplement, possibly there is some improvement in the grass, but none of the other horses have any noticeable difference in their hoof growth. I have sent some pictures as I think they clearly show the change! Tiggi Bentley
Linda Kemp & Skye Blue "Since using NAF Five Star ProFeet my horses feet have improved - it's amazing!"
"Lewis has to be shod every 4 weeks and we’ve struggled over the years to find a product that encourages quality hoof growth. He has been on PROFEET for 5 weeks and the last time he was shod the farrier had plenty to trim. His feet look in excellent condition, nails are still tight and no sign of splits round the nails. PROFEET and a daily application of Farrier Solution are helping to improve the quality of his hooves and have them looking in top condition and we wouldn’t be without either in our tack room."
"Blossom came to us with typical flat thoroughbred feet with the back feet having big splits up the sides. They have improved hugely whilst feeding PROFEET. My farrier is impressed with the improvement too!"
"I just wanted to say a massive thank you for your amazing PROFEET range! The PROFEET Powder, Farrier Dressing and Rock Hard have strengthened my horse's feet and he now has his first set of shoes on. This now means that we can begin to bring him back into work."
Cara’s hooves had a tendency to be brittle and crumbly, particularly in the summer months when the ground is dry and she lives out 24/7. We have been using PROFEET for around a year now and the difference is astounding. Her feet are now strong, with no sign of crumbling or splitting. My farrier is impressed with the result!
"My horse had typical TB feet so I decided to take his shoes off for a rest. In only 5-6 months there is already such an improvement. My farrier even noticed that, what hoof Goose has grown, is less but better/ thicker quality. I cant back this product enough.”

For my mare Freya our favourite supplement has to be PROFEET. We started feeding PROFEET Powder a few years ago when I got fed up of her pulling her front shoes off! No matter how I booted her up she would always lose a front shoe in the field or out hacking. One time the farrier had only just got home when she came in with a shoe missing. We decided to go barefoot and use PROFEET to help with that transition and haven't looked back. Her feet are in great condition and she has managed to compete and do road work absolutely fine.
"Recently I have been using the PROFEET Rock Hard on my pony who has very soft feet and struggles with being foot sore. It is amazing and has made a world of difference. My pony now can go on regular hacks, no problem. I am a convert and will be recommending it!"
"I just wanted to say a massive thank you for your amazing PROFEET range! The PROFEET Powder, Farrier Dressing and Rock Hard have strengthened my horse's feet and he now has his first set of shoes on. This now means that we can begin to bring him back into work."

"My horse had laminitis this summer, and after recovering he still struggled with sore soles and toes. I came by Rock Hard and tried it, and on day four he went from limping to completely sound, and after 10 days he could trot and canter on gravel with no boots.”
I brought my horse H in from the field and I could see he had hurt his near fore leg. The vet was called out and he had a nasty cut to his bulb of his hoof, he had a dressing put on and was instructed to go on box rest. After three weeks of dressing changes and many packets of NAF Minty Treats in his snack ball to keep him occupied in the stable, the final dressing came off. Although the leg had reduced in size, the wound was very exposed, so he had to remain on box rest for a while longer. I decided to try NAF Aloe Vera Purple Spray as I had used it in the past for minor cuts with success. Literally within 24 hours of using it I noticed the difference, the area was much improved and he seemed more comfortable when I was touching it. He is now back out in his paddock in the day (on dry days) and I am just so impressed with the Purple Spray - mega product! I honestly can't recommend NAF products highly enough. I am never disappointed with the results - H especially likes the Minty Treats and whenever I fill his snack ball up he gets really excited! Naomi Nunn
"I keep a bottle in the house at all times, and use it when I know my dogs are going to be more active or travelling, both in the days before hand and then a couple of days after. My dogs have hydrotherapy and regular chiropractic and physio check ups so I tend to use it then in addition to their daily Mobility supplement. They love the taste so they think it is a real treat, and it help relax their muscles and joints after strenuous work or adjustments."
“I just wanted to thank you for your advice on the products for my dog Lucky. Since feeding Relief her signs of discomfort have completely disappeared, she is now full of life and acting like a puppy again. So grateful to you for your advice, to have found a product that works and to have my dog feeling much better. Relief is just amazing.”
May, a 7 years old, 14.1hh Connemara Mare owned by Martine Webb. May was having veterinary prescribed products for her respiratory system, but they did not appear to be helping her. Martine was about to give up when she decided to try feeding Respirator. After just 2 weeks, Martine saw a significant improvement and they are now able to ride out happily together, and even take part in some shows.
Silver (Crown Silver Cloud) an 8 year old part bred Arab owned by Roslyn Stewart. Roslyn has been using NAF products on Silver for 4 years. They compete in dressage, along with showing at both local and County level in small hack and part bred Arab classes. Through the summer months, Silver is affected by the increased pollen and dust levels, which affect her airways and cause her to shake her head. Roslyn now feeds Respirator and has noticed a big difference in Silver's health and behaviour - she is now much happier during the summer months.
I've tried various sprays, shampoos and detanglers and none seemed to do the job, it never looked like I had used anything on my ponies until I tried the NAF Range! I use Silky Detangler, Shiny Coat Spray and Wash & Show for reds and greys - it's great! My ponies' coats look lovely and people always comment on how I get them to look so good! I compete all over the country in mounted games, I have produced all my ponies and they love it! I also compete my mum's Irish sports horse in show jumping and with him being a dark bay nearly black the sun shines off him! I always tell people I use NAF! I also feed Respirator in the summer for one of my ponies as she gets affected by the pollen, and she has much improved.
Llanwen Deio (Llani) owned and ridden by Jane Taggart. Llani can be heavy in his wind which can affect his respiratory health if not managed carefully. Says Jane, "Llani is now on Respirator, it supports his respiratory system so well that he now has no problem getting round in the time allowed."
I have used a variety of your products for years, my favourite three are Silky, Shiny and Respirator. I compete all over the country with mounted games, people are always asking how my ponies manes are so knot free and how their coats are so shiny so I always tell them about Silky and Shiny. My mare had a bad reaction to poor hay and developed breathing issues, we tried products from our vet but nothing worked. Once I got it under control, I tried Respirator and Respirator Boost, which were both fantastic and really helped support her airways! Stephanie Steele
Hannah Mcdonald and Llainweddfa "I really do appreciate your company's products and have seen great differences in the horses after using them. We have almost your entire NaturalintX first aid range in our lorry, we use Five Star Respirator on my pony as he often gets coughs and we have found this a great help! Paint It Black never ceases to amaze me! It last forever and stays shiny! Thank you!"
"This Welsh cob stallion has been pretty much run for the last 2 years on NAF products. We're settling his insides using Pink Powder as a part of his diet twice a day without fail. I could not be without your Love The Skin He's In Wash; he is constantly washed down using it and I now use the skin spray from that range, which is also fantastic. He has Respirator every morning in his feed to keep the airways clear, and even has Brighter Than White chalk on at shows. The cob is Northwick Notorious as featured in the latest issue of Horse and Hound. In his two years of open classes, he has won at Royal Highland and champion, won Royal Cheshire a few days previously, qualifying twice in a week for Hoys on only his 3rd outing of this term. Last year, he won numerous championships and Supremes and Wpcs performance medals. He also won Royal Norfolk and had his best result to date at the one that can't be topped, being ridden Welsh Cob Champion at the 2018 Royal Welsh Show. Just wanted to let you know and say thank you for all your wonderful products that we wouldn't be without, particularly for Notorious who is such a sensitive horse."
Our horse Pirate is 23 years old and suffers from seasonal allergies. We use NAF Respirator which helps him very much, and means we can do more things with him. My husband and I love him so much, he means the world to us both, and has got us through some hard times.
Leah Parry Williamson and Just Amy Amy is a 17hh, 11 year old, bay, Irish Sports Horse mare who loves nothing more than a good cuddle and pamper. "Amy had issues with her breathing and respiratory system. I used the NAF Five Star Respirator Boost and the difference it has made is incredible. I now swear by Respirator Boost - it is a product I seriously believe in."
Sammo is now 15 and I have had him since he was 11. He is an Arab x 'Irish Allsorts'. I do fun rides and go out with the Bloodhounds with him. He has some minor respiratory challenges so I feed Respirator Boost to keeps his airways clear, this is especially important as we really cover the country at canter/gallop with lots of jumping. He is a big boned horse and I am not lightweight so I feed Superflex every day to keep his joints healthy, and Devil's Relief for extra support during the Bloodhound season. He has the most wonderful shiny coat which people always comment on, I put this down to feeding In the Pink Senior and using Love the SKIN he's in Wash after hard work.

Gizmo had a cough on and off all winter. Although we had the Vet out to him, tried soaking his hay, changed him to haylage and swapped his feed, nothing seemed to help. Then we tried Respirator Boost, and he is now so much better - it's great! Karen Powell
We are amazed by the results from Respirator Boost. My horse had a respiratory condition and has been on medication. Recently though we have switched to Respirator Boost - now he feels so much easier to ride; he is working so beautifully and he has a smile on his face, and very forward! Sarah Bosomworth and Morris (QD esquire)
'Sharon started BE 80 eventing this year on her 14.1hh Irish Pony Edward. She was only 11 and on a small pony, we were having difficulty covering the ground as fast as a lot of competitors on their big thoroughbred, consequently we were getting a few time faults which was frustrating as her dressage scores were from 17 to late 20s. We have now moved up to BE90 with dressage scores still in their 20s, cross country is now perfect with only the occasional time fault. I put this down to the fact that Edward is fed Respirator Boost.' Sharon Parry
'My mare Silver Samphire (Beau) has always struggled with the change in October, going from being out at night to coming in; this combined with a yard move onto different bedding meant she found it even harder. Although she was still performing ok, I could tell that her airways were compromised. I was slightly concerned about getting her to eat a supplement as she is very fussy, but to my surprise she didn't bat an eyelid when I introduced it into her feed! Within a couple of days of feeding Respirator Boost, there was an obvious difference in her breathing and she was much more back to her old self. I am now feeding at the maintenance level as it has had such a positive effect.' Carrie Bosworth
Corrine Finlay and Jamie (age 18) "I tried NAF Five Star Respirator Boost on Jamie because he was throwing his head and sneezing whilst warming up. It worked a treat and I'm on my third bottle. It's fab and he loves it too. What a difference it's making to him!"
Safia Woodward with Moonbeg Boy were 3rd in the P.C Championship Open Show Jumping and also competed in the PC Open Eventing Championships. "As a typical sensitive ginger Moonbeg Boy loves your Love The Skin He's In, uses NAF Five Star Respirator boost all summer and also a bit NAF Five Star Magic Calmer for his dressage!"
"After trying numerous products with no success, I bought Respirator Boost as a final attempt before resorting to veterinary treatment. With the money back guarantee I thought there was nothing to lose. I was amazed at how much it helped my horse in such a short length of time! Especially as other products had seemingly no effect. We are able to have fun without restrictions. I wouldn't be without it!"
“After trying Glen on a number of supplements, none have been as effective as Respirator Boost. It is reassuring to find a product which I know works effectively, and is highly palatable even for fussy feeders like Glen”
“I bought this product to support Ronnie's respiratory system and immunity. Also with the awareness of Equine Influenza looming, this product has been perfect at supporting Ronnie's health and well-being.”
"Otto and I compete at Advanced level British Dressage and are training PSG at home. One of the NAF Area Sales Managers came to the Original Equestrian Camps I run at Aintree last year and suggested that I put Otto on Five Star Superflex Senior to help him stay active now that he is classed as a Senior horse and given the strain that high level dressage work can put on his joints. Given that he has been on Respirator Boost as well for a past bout of breathing issues one Autumn, which has really helped him; I was very happy to try another NAF product. I am really pleased with the way that Otto is going, his work is getting stronger all the time and we are soon off to Hartpury to compete in the Area Festival Championships at Advanced Medium. It's great knowing I'm doing all I can to hopefully prolong his working life and the products being Clean Sport safe gives me piece of mind too."
"Following a period of box rest, Jack started showing real signs of discomfort in his head and was not at all happy. I has serious concerns about his quality of life. "Thanks to NAF's experience of other cases, I felt that all was not lost and was keen to try anything that might help him. Respirator Boost and Shake Relief were started on NAF's advice and just ten days later, Jack was a different horse and was back to his usual self. "I am so relieved that he is comfortable and grateful to NAF for the help and the products. I am thrilled with the results."
"Respirator Boost is a game changer! Pepper was struggling with respiratory issues earlier this year so initially I fed it to help with this, which it did within 24 hours. She had another flare up last week so I put her on it again and got the same results, so I’ve decided to keep her on the maintenance dose."
"I have owned this beautiful gelding Llanina Meriadoc since July 2002. We climbed up through the dressage levels with scores of up to 73% and he now retired, but is looking fabulous thanks to NAF! Together with good feed; Superflex Senior, Respirator Boost and the Veteran Supplement help him to stay looking wonderful at the age of 30."
"I've had Scooby on NAF Five Star Respirator Boost for around three weeks now and it's made such a difference. He gets a daily dose of 25ml and if I'm riding, I give him some in a small feed just before I tack up and that's where I've found the biggest difference! If you have a horse who needs respiratory support, this product used in the correct way is definitely the way to go!"
Since being fed NAF GastriAid and Five Star Optimum Balancer, I have found Morph to be less stressed when he is being ridden and he is now the favourite escort for the younger horses when we’re hacking. Feeding him Optimum allows me to know that he is receving all of the correct nutrients he needs to be healthy. Five Star Respirator Boost is also an essential for Morph during the winter months.
"After a long winter, an increased workload and getting out and out for his first season, I bought NAF Five Star Respirator Boost to support Ronnie's respiratory system and immunity. This product has been perfect at supporting Ronnie's health and well-being."
"Barney started to wheeze and cough and his breathing was a bit laboured, I was thinking COPD, heaves etc so I booked vet to come. In the meantime I got some NAF Respirator Boost, amazing results in little time, Barney improved and no wheeze/cough, this product really does what it says."
"Mr Darcy was really struggling with the change of seasons. Runny nose, head-shaking and lethargic. It had gotten to the point where he was struggling with ridden work and very unhappy. 24 hours on the Respirator Boost and he's back to his forward cheeky self. A feed room must have!"
"Rosie is a sensitive 22 year old Thoroughbred mare. I have fed NAF Five Star Respirator Boost for years and feed it all year round to support her breathing at times when she needs it most. It is very palatable and helps her particularly in the winter when she is stabled more. I recommend this product to anyone who also has a horse with sensitivities."
I have used several NAF supplements this year for my horses including Five Star Respirator Boost and I am delighted with the results. With the high pollen and hot humid weather, my horses are feeling much better in terms of their performance, general mental and physical well-being. Our horses are our everything and NAF carries this ethos through and through, with the high quality of products and effectiveness. Not to mention the care and precision with which products are suggested for each individual.
“I gave NAF Respirator Boost a go this summer when my girl started coughing again, with the money back guarantee I might as well try it! WOW within a week she had stopped coughing AND she loved it! I now keep a bottle in my tack room for any flare ups.”
"My horse suffered with sand issues for years ago and has been diagnoses with gut sensitivity. Over that time I’ve learnt what my horse needs to keep his gut healthy. I joined a NAF Sand Gard Pellets trial and, having a lot of experience in sand tests and management, I followed the instructions exactly and could see an immediate result after just one course. My horse ate the pellets without hesitation and enjoys his tea again.
Thank you NAF for listening to me, giving me your highly professional advice and to let me be part of the trial. NAF has saved my horse and made him feel good again. I am very grateful to all of you!!"
"My favourite product is Show Off shampoo as it leaves Pi looking super shiny and white making us ready to take on anything!"
Tonycyffig Debutante (Tan) shown by Megan Rodgers. Before Tan was sent to Megan for 2 years to show, she had been living out for years, out of work on foal duties and she had also lost the pigmentation around her eyes. Before this, she was a highly successful show horse, winning Pembroke County first time out as a 3 year old and winning numerous supreme championships at local level. Megan introduced In the Pink Powder and Seaweed to her diet as soon as she arrived. Says Megan "Already her winter coat is coming out in bag fulls to reveal a glossy summer coat, and the colour is starting to return to her skin around her eyes. Hopefully we can do her owners proud and return to her winning ways. I will definitely continue using NAF products. My success has been down to the goodness NAF installs in my ponies from the inside out."
Granite to Gold a 13 year old, 16.1hh full Irish Draught mare owned by Marita Barr. Marita competes her mare Granite to Gold in dressage and showing. Marita has always had problems with her mare's poor hair growth, having always had to rely on the use of a false tail for competitions. On advice from the NAF Nutritional Helpline, Marita started to feed Seaweed. Says Marita "I am delighted to say I have seen some fantastic results, her coat is gleaming and she had a real sparkle in her eye. One of the most pleasing benefits I have seen is the sudden growth in her tail which I have struggled to grow in the past 2 years I have owned her. Since feeding Seaweed, her tail is now thicker and fuller and I no longer need to use the false one which is great as it is very time consuming! Keep up the good work!"
Both of my horses live out all year round and received a limited amount of hard feed therefore I feed Seaweed to ensure that they both receive the additional nutrients that they need and my ISH mare is also fed Biotin Plus as her feet are prone to cracking and crumbling. I am also using the Citronella Tags through the summer. Ellie Morgans
"Misty is much more comfortable now, thank you! Natural VetCare."
"Since starting on Senior CatCare, Smudge is extra loving and relaxed."
Tommy, a ten year old cob cross thoroughbred owned by Bev Clark. Although Tommy had shown mild signs of head shaking two years ago, last year the symptoms became so violent there were days he couldn't be ridden for fear he would throw himself over. Bev tried a nose net and a riding mask which were of some help. She also tried feeding various head shaking supplements but saw no improvement. That was until she saw an advert for Shake Relief in Horse and Hound. After feeding it to Tommy, the results were very encouraging; he became much easier to ride and calmer in himself. So this year Bev started feeding Shake Relief much earlier in the season, and the results have been fantastic. Tommy's head shaking is almost non existent and he can be schooled or hacked out any time of the day with no problems. Says Sue "I am so thankful to NAF, I would never have thought a supplement would help Tommy so much - he doesn't even look like a horse who head shakes and he's so much happier, the difference is unbelievable."
Tiffin I bought Tiffin a 16.2 TB. in November last year, although having ridden and had horses on loan all my life, he is the first horse i have actually owned. At first he occasionally shook his head when out hacking and grabbed at the bit. He was fine when ridden in the school and when jumping, it seemed that if he had something to concentrate on he was fine, so at first I put it down to it being a 'TB thing'. However, in February/March this year, he became nearly un-rideable. I bought a nose net as someone suggested this might help, it did and he was better but I wondered if there was a supplement that could help. I did some research and read other peoples stories on the NAF website and decided to give Shake Relief a go. I started Tiffin on 2 scoops and within 10 days, it was like riding a new horse! He was calm and working well both out hacking and in the school. I then dropped him down to 1 scoop a day and he was ok but definitely not as good. About 2 weeks ago he went on box rest due to a bruised sole. Don't ask me why I did it, but I stopped his Shake Relief. The first time I took him out again, he was a complete nightmare and the next time and the time after that. So I put him back on Shake Relief and he has returned to a calm and content horse again. Although I think he may need to be one of these horses that stays on it all year long, it really is a great supplement for him!
I have been privileged to have had Dexey in my life for 18 years and very soon after buying her, I found out that the mild head shaking, described in the vetting as a 'young horse getting used to the bit' escalated into something that was quite distressing for both horse and rider. I took her on holiday that year to Cranbourne Chase and as soon as we went under any trees, she would become very distressed and at 4 years old she was managing piaffe and passage very well without any tuition nor any prompting from me!!! During the winter, the symptoms went only to return in the spring. Over time, I have learned that tree pollen is the culprit, mainly beech and oak. She is now almost 22 and either she has learned to accept the symptoms or has built up some immunity, I am not sure, but she does not become quite so agitated but I know she is still in considerable discomfort. It is only her perfect manners which stop her from trying to escape from the stress of it. As you will guess, in all this time, I have tried almost every possible remedy from a special mixture of pollens made up for her, to human hay fever tablets prescribed by my vet which involved crushing 80 tablets per day. I had not heard of Shake Relief - I have to say I have never been a huge believer in supplements but she had a bit of a cough and my current vet recommended I try Respirator Boost, which I have to say did the trick. It was whilst I was enquiring about Respirator that I learned about Shake Relief, so thinking 'what the heck' decided to try it. I am now on my second tub with a third on order and at this early stage, the results have been very positive indeed. Our yard backs onto a bridleway running alongside a river and bounded by trees on both sides, so you will appreciate that midges are also a problem in addition to the pollen. So far, the results have been very positive, so I am keeping my fingers crosses as this is one of the worst times of the year for her. This mare is not a cheap date, but if I can make her life as happy as she has made mine, I think we have both fulfilled our relationship! Thank you very much for your advice.
"My mare started shaking her head and showing discomfort in spring about 4 years ago. She has gotten progressively worse over the years had become difficult to ride as a result. Last summer I tested the new NAF Shake Relief supplement and it successfully reduced the signs. She became easier to ride, and we could finally school again - even cantering, which used to really cause her discomfort."
"It has really helped our 13.3hh 7 year old mare Jessie (a rescue cob) who we noticed struggled with seasonal discomfort a year after we got her and moved to another location. She would shake her head violently when ridden and lunged and also go along with her nose on the floor and scrape her nose on the ground in the field. The pollen and flies seem to trigger it, but after using your NAF product for 6 weeks we can say it’s really helped her so we could to ride and compete her. Although when the flies are very bad (or rain on her nose!) we have to use a nose net. I am so happy we could find a solution as she is such a lovely sweet pony who tried her heart out for my daughter and I who compete her in dressage and showing. She has been a joy to train and loves to please & learn and also having a bit of talent and was hoping to make her BD debut this month until all was cancelled due to COVID-19. Really happy to recommend this product."
"I was lucky enough to be asked to take part in the development trial with my pony George; he regularly shakes, and flicks his head when the weather starts to warm up, especially in the arena or in wooded area's on bridleways. This can be very off putting when you are riding and jumping, and my daughter got so that she wouldn’t want to ride him either. It was about week two I really noticed a difference after feeding him this supplement, we had a normal pony! We were able to ride him and not worry about any of his shaking and my daughter was really growing in confidence. Then we finished the trial and George very, very quickly went back to flicking and shaking, when NAF very kindly sent another trial pot and as soon as he went back on it it stopped again! This made such a massive change to all of us and I cannot wait to get him back on it."
"We have seen a huge improvement and have even started riding him again, which is work in progress but very positive. The weather is not on his side so to get him to work at all is a minor miracle. His shaking has reduced considerably, and he seems much more relaxed. The pony in question won his first affiliated dressage a week ago with over 69%, following up this week with another win with 72%, so its getting better and better."
"After using the supplement for my horse l found a considerable difference in his behaviour, he used to stand in his stable twitching his head and quivering his bottom lip. Now, on New Shake Relief, no longer was he shaking his head or rubbing his nose on his foreleg when riding. He is a very sensitive chap and we have symptoms all year around, for my horse it has changed our lives, l hope this helps yours too, l cannot recommend enough."
"I have found the supplement very helpful for making Nosey more comfortable. He is 14 and has had a problem since the age of 6. If no measures are taken he is quite distressed rubbing his nose and shaking his head all over the place when he is outside his stable in summer. There are also some signs through the winter. My normal measures are fly mask, nose net, homeopathic pills and cranial sacral therapy. Even with these I have to limit schooling sessions at peak pollen and particles in the air times. When using the NAF supplement he is noticeably more comfortable and relaxed in most riding sessions, and in fact when feeding it I now forget about his condition through the winter months. He is also able to be turned out in summer for a few hours with very few crazy moments. There are occasional high pollen/particles in the air days when even at high doses of the supplement he is better off in the stable. But most of the time I feel the supplement is helpful making him more comfortable in his life."
"Alfie aka Mumaathel is our ex racer who really struggles most of the year with air pollutants Alfie will head flick in bright sunlight and with a light breeze. We use a nose net and ear veil to help with the hypersensitivity which can quickly turn into difficulty breathing. We have to use medication including inhaler puffers when it is bad Alfie can become very tight through his poll and neck which then has an effect on his schooling/competitions. We use Physio and Chiro manipulation to help with the tension We can’t always work out what the trigger is, sometimes Alfie presents with mild symptoms and sometimes we need veterinary help. If we have an irritation prior to exercise we syringe NAF Kof-Eze linctus. Whatever day we are having we are very thankful to NAF for making Alfie a lot comfier with Shake Relief. Shake Relief means we can carry on competing without medication #cleansport"
"My IDxTB mare Millie was diagnosed with seasonal discomfort when she was 8 years old after no previous history or signs. I have tried several supplements to try and help with her pain but have found nothing that does the job. Her shaking and discomfort are exacerbated during high pollen (mainly grass) and/or strong sunlight, she has consequently been on high levels of allergy treatment during this time. I trialled the NAF Shake Relief supplement during the high pollen summer months last year and will be putting her back on it this year. Whilst there is no known cure yet, I found the supplement worked just as well as previous treatment and will certainly be easier to get hold of!"
"Bradley displayed typical shaking of his head behaviour in 2015 at the age of 16. I tried various supplements and a nose net which gave only minor relief and I was unable to ride him due to his temperamental behaviour. I was fortunate to be able to trial the new NAF Shake Relief in 2019 and it has been life changing for Bradley. He is now comfortable out in the field and calm to handle. And the best news is that I am now able to ride him which I hadn’t thought possible. He still has occasional episodes where he tosses and jerks his head but these are nowhere near as severe as previous episodes and are short lived and he's back grazing in his field quite quickly."
"Raz was diagnosed 18 months ago, after he became highly agitated both in and out of the stable and un-rideable. With veterinary approaches he improved considerably, but where there were multiple triggers he would still become agitated and start to shake his head. NAF were asking for volunteers for a trial they were doing with a new supplement, so I decided to volunteer, because, whilst he was much improved if I could give him something to help him even further, and help other people with their horses, why not? Having fed Raz the supplement for a short while I was starting to see a positive impact in that he was more relaxed in himself, both in the stable and when being ridden on hacks and in the school, and not over reacting to a trigger. So much so, after the trial finished I contacted NAF to ask when the supplement would be available to buy, as it seemed to help Raz that much."
"Homebred Ruby was treated by the vet due having a pollen sensitivity and shaking her head regularly. It was found that hawthorn and rape pollen were the cause. Since changing the management of her and trialling the new improved Shake Relief from NAF, she has become more settled and is now exhibiting her normal relaxed behaviour."
"I was lucky to be able to trial the Shake Relief supplement for my horse. Prior to the trial she had become increasingly stressed and difficult to ride due to severe bouts of seasonal sensitivity. It was impossible to carry out any schooling work and normal hacking was becoming quite dangerous. I introduced the supplement gradually, as she can be a particularly fussy feeder. She got used to the supplement very quickly and the results were noticeable within a short space of time (about a week). Her symptoms were markedly improved, she was less stressed and shaking her head was much reduced to the point that it was possible to hack out happily and resume flat work. Her concentration levels increased dramatically to the point she has started jumping and been hunting."
"In 2018 my horse developed an occasional shake of the head. I tried many different products to help ease his symptoms and the shake itself but to no avail. I saw NAF UK offering a trial of a new product and contacted them as it I felt this may help. I was so pleased with the results after only a few weeks. It has definitely helped to settle my horse and he can now enjoy hacking and schooling without constant discomfort. I would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone with a similarly sensitive horse."
"King Arthur loves his NAF Shake Relief, it's the best product we have ever tried and it's been a game changer for us! We are 6 weeks into feeding it and he is so much happier!"
"Following a period of box rest, Jack started showing real signs of discomfort in his head and was not at all happy. I has serious concerns about his quality of life. "Thanks to NAF's experience of other cases, I felt that all was not lost and was keen to try anything that might help him. Respirator Boost and Shake Relief were started on NAF's advice and just ten days later, Jack was a different horse and was back to his usual self. "I am so relieved that he is comfortable and grateful to NAF for the help and the products. I am thrilled with the results."
It's a miracle worker! Patch suffers with seasonally associated discomfort and this year, he was really affected. Feeding Shake Relief has meant that he is back to his normal self and we're having a fun summer!
We’ve used NAF Shake Relief on Halltown Harley for many years now. He can really suffer during the spring when the pollen increases, showing many of the classic signs, like rubbing his nose, increased anxiety and vertical head flipping. This affects his temperament, making him unhappy in himself and his attitude to work changes, so all parts of his training can be affected, which is not ideal pre competition season. Having him on the Shake Relief means he is happy in himself so he can focus on the event, so giving me his best performance every time.
"Polly has been on Shake Relief for four weeks now. She's happy and relaxed in her stable. I have my pony back. ❤ ”
“I’m really impressed by NAF Shake Relief; to say I was dubious about feeding a supplement would be an understatement, however after speaking to the Nutritional Helpline, I decided to give it a go. If I had to rate the improvement in my daughter’s horse I’d say he is 75-80% and he’s also not struggling with runny eyes that usually plague him this time of year. Yob now has less poles down in the show jumping as he’s steadier in his head, and he’s enjoying his work a lot more. Thank you NAF, another great product! “
I've recently started using your Sheer Luxe Leather Balsam on my precious saddle, the results are immense! You can really see and feel the difference and as for the fragrance... sublime! Thank you. I need to get the whole range now! Jane Yeoman
"I'm often asked how I keep my white leather belts so clean and supple. The answer is of course, NAF Soft Soap and Leather Balsam. Neither impart any colour into white leather. The picture is of a few of us at The Commandery Worcester on 14th February 2015. That's me in the bearskin. I know historical re-enactors aren't your target market but every one of them, whatever their era has leather items that need looking after!" Paul Connell 2rd Royal Welch Fusiliers 1809
"I purchased a rather old saddle that was in desperate need of some TLC but a fabulous fit for my Arab mare. Nothing was working and it continued to look dry and lack lustre until I tried Sheer Luxe Basalm. Just WOW! Incredible 5* Product"
"From the beginning of my riding debut to 7 years onwards, NAF has been there whether it be for tack preparation/cleaning to electrolytes to Harley’s favourite Himalayan salt licks. My all time favourite NAF product would have to be the Sheer Luxe Leather Balsam, simply gave my tack the shine! I’ve previously used NAFs cleaning products but this one in particular differed from the rest. The softer feel made my tack a delight to clean, in fact this leather balsam motivated me to do it! My tack felt so nourished. The sponge that came with it was also of quality, easy to clean and allows me to get into all the tighter spaces."
"I purchased a rather old saddle that was in desperate need of some TLC but a fabulous fit for my Arab mare. Nothing was working and it continued to look dry and lack lustre until I tried Sheer Luxe Balsam just WOW ! Incredible product, five stars!"
"My favourite products are the Biotin Plus supplement and the Sheer Luxe Cleanse & Condition (However I think Harry’s favourite is the NAF “Appy Treats”). At the beginning of the season my young event horse had horrifically bad feet, cracking, crumbling and constantly losing shoes due to the condition of his feet. I tried a range of supplements with no improvement until I tried the NAF Biotin Plus. Within 2 months of being on the supplement his feet have hardened and look amazing! We can now happily event without the fear of losing shoes all thanks to NAF! The supplement really worked well for my horse ‘Harry’ as he is quite a fussy eater but the NAF supplement is really palatable and I find him licking the bucket clean after eating.
Me and Harry use a range of NAF products and are yet to find one that doesn’t work extremely well and that we don’t like.
Many many thanks,
Chloe & Harry."
"I love NAF products. At the moment I am using your Cooling Wash, Warming Wash, Electro Salts, GastriAid, Tack Cleaner and Hoof Moist! NAF Cleanse and Condition and Soft Soap is keeping my tack looking it’s very best!"
Hi there, I thought I would let you know how amazing Shine On is, it worked a treat for my mare and she is now very shiny. I will be using this lots now! Abi Marshall

My favourite NAF product Shine On! I love this product as Mr Goose and I love to compete and I always spray this on him. It makes him look so smart and shiny. Not only is it really effective, it is so easy and quick to use, a couple of sprays and he is shining! I would recommend this product to anyone who wants to stand out from the crowd and catch the judges eye. Alice Bailey 13 & Mr Goose
I work for Wynnstay in the Skipton branch and show horses in my spare time. I just wanted to let you know how fabulous the NAF range of cleaning/ grooming products are. My sister and I have 2 grey horses and we would be lost without your fantastic products. We have an Irish Draught Maxi Cob Mare called Newshams Mooncoin ( Bobbi) and a Irish Sports horse who is a Novice Heavyweight Hunter called Mount Rushmore ( Brody). Last September Bobbi was graded by the Irish Draught Society and was graded class 1 she received the highest conformation mare of all the mares graded and the 3 inspectors also commented on her presentation. In 2015 Bobbi had a very successful year and was featured in the Irish Draught Year book with a full page article, she also had a number of other photographs in the year book due to her successes at the Northern, Midlands and South West Irish Draught shows. 2016 has also started out very successful with Bobbi has so far winning 2 supreme of show championships, 6 champions and 3 reserve champions. A number of people ask how we get her so clean and her tail and legs so white! The key to her looking so sparkling clean is we use NAF Pimp my Pony on her body, and for her tail and legs we wash them with NAF Show OFF shampoo. The morning of the show we use NAF Muck OFF on any dirty bits and always put this in her tail even if it is clean as this makes the tail very white! We also regularly use the NAF Shine ON Grooming spray to keep their coats in fab condition. Brody is in his first season showing as Christina badly broke her ankle last year and therefore he was not broken until the end of 2015. Brody’s nickname at home is Mud Monster and he loves to be dirty – this is not helpful when he is 17.2hds and grey! I have attached a photo that shows a usual dirty photo of him. Brody has so far been to 2 shows and won at both these shows and also won a championship and reserve championship. At these shows a number of people asked how we get him so clean! Again we use NAF Show OFF shampoo, NAF Muck Off (on a daily basis) and NAF Shine on Grooming Spray. I have found that the grooming spray really helps to keep his coat clean. Over the years we have used all brands of cleaning and grooming products but NAF is by far the best! We would be lost without your products, they also smell fantastic, we also get a lot of comments at show on how clean and well the horses look. Christina and I are complete amateurs we buy our horses in Ireland as unbroken and usually a little wild 3 years old and break and produce them ourselves. Christina works as an Environmental Consultant specialising in flood risk and resilience so this years has been exceptionally busy for her but we always make time for our horses as they are our passion and it’s great to see they are looking their best and so glad NAF make such good products to help our horses look there best. I have attached photographs so you can see how great Bobbi and Brody look thanks to NAF. Nicola
Charlotte Richardson & Danny aka Norway Dance “My favourite NAF products are the Lavender Wash, Paint It Clear and the Shine On Grooming Spray they really do work a treat and at a brilliant price too, I use them all the time at shows and at home! He is a picture of me and Danny (Norway dance) competing in Wales in the Home Pony International qualifying for scope too!”
“Thanks for that amazing shampoo… wow! I had got home last Friday evening early from work to see that my horse Danny was naked in the field and covered head to foot in mud. Firstly, he should not have been naked and secondly he was due to go to a party the following day, he is a mud hippo! He was going to be a model for a photo shoot and the photographer had come over to take photos of him as the sun was out, unfortunately he thought nothing of taking his rugs off and letting him run free…. Danny being a total mud hippo – as soon as the last buckle was undone he was down and rolling much to the disappointment of the photographer! After a visit from the Fab Four Show Off – later I was having to wear sun glasses!!! Fantastic stuff —- never had a cleaner pony or a shinier one! Laragh Cresswell
Midnight Rustic Moonshine (Monster) is always washed with SHOW OFF before a show, it makes her coat incredibly shiny, we also use it on our other Show Hunter for her white bits and the results are magnificent! Monster has also always been on In The Pink Powder ever since we saw a real difference in her condition at the Search for a Star finals at HOYS in 2012. We trust NAF to deliver with turn out and with nutrition and wouldn’t be without either product. Tony and Nicola Wilkes

I have a grey (white!) mare who I regularly compete at dressage with. She is a nightmare to get clean, especially removing the yellow smears that seem to be everywhere. The only product that gets her clean is your NAF show off shampoo, it's amazing!!! I've tried so many other, very similar products and they don't even begin to lift the stains. Your shampoo lifts them straight away and leaves her coat looking fantastic and white, all for a very reasonable price. Here's a picture of her winning her area festival last year, scrubbed using your shampoo!
Show Off Shampoo Is amazing! Having a coloured who needs washing 2/3 times before showing a class this product just removed the dirt and stains within minutes. Shine On gives the horses coat an amazing shine, plus remove's any loose dust and dirt. For that perfect flawless show shine. Jay Page

"Having two grey ponies means we have to work extra hard to keep them clean for shows and outings, and our job would be much harder without the help of NAF Show Off Ultraviolet Shampoo. The shampoo is especially effective at getting yellow stains out of tails and grass stains off legs!"
"I use your products all the time on my gelding Ronnie. He’s always on top form thanks to NAF Superflex supplement giving him the extra freedoms he needs in his joints, and NAF Show Off shampoo for show days always making us shine and be our best selves!"
"This is one of my horses, Steve, at Bicton Arena where he was plastered in red mud after cross country day (XC photo underneath so you can appreciate the mud!). However, with the help of NAF Show Off Shampoo and Silky Mane and Tail D-tangler he was sparkling for Sundays trot up!"
"My favourite product is Show Off shampoo as it leaves Pi looking super shiny and white making us ready to take on anything!"
"I thought I’d send you a couple of photos of how brilliant I think your products are! One is the Show Off Shampoo that I use so much of! One of my clients is the Mendip Hunt and they have a coloured horse that has to be bathed regularly and we simply wouldn’t cope without your products!"

"I use NAF Show Off Shampoo which makes my horses shine in the ring."
"The NAF Show Off Shampoo works an absolute dream. This is the best product I have ever used, it brings out their full colour and will get up all of the dirt beneath the fur. I cannot recommend this shampoo enough!!"
"The NAF Show Off Shampoo works an absolute dream. This is the best product I have ever used and will certainly be buying more next time I go showing. It brings out their full colour and will get out all of the dirt beneath the fur. I cannot recommend this shampoo enough!!!”
We recently tried NAF’s Brighter Than White, Silky Mane & Tail D-Tangler and Show Off to get our grey pony sparkling for a pony club competition. They worked a treat and our team won the tack and turnout!
“I can honestly say Show Off Shampoo is the best; not only does it smell insane, it transformed my very muddy pony in literally minutes! It’s so easy to lather up and rinse off and leaves a fabulous shine, I absolutely love this product!”
Our favourite NAF product is Show Off Shampoo it really does make whites white. Out of all the shampoos we have tried Show Off is the best and makes us stand out in the show ring. Once a judge couldn’t believe that there wasn’t a speck of dust on him and we won best turned out. This is why it’s special to us and how it makes a difference.
"I use this regularly with Herbie, my show Sealyham terrier. I have found that it helps with keeping his skirt tangle free, and helps prevent the hair from breaking when brushing him, or when he is playing hard with my other dogs. It has a lovely fragrance and doesn’t leave any slippy residue."
My other NAF hero product is the Silky Mane and Tail Detangler, a must have for anyone who has a pony with a thick mane and tail as Bobo has, a spray every few days keeps his mane and tail tangle free!
We use quite a few NAF products, our favourite is the Silky. Silky is an essential product when going to competitions but it is also used at home to keep our horses manes and tails lovely and tangle free. Our horses live out and their tails get rather mucky, it keeps their tails thick and because it helps reduce tangles, it means less hair is pulled out when grooming. We highly recommend this product for all horse owners! I have attached a photo of my show horse Billy. Many thanks, Hayley
Julie at Windmill Feeds with her horse Jack the Fell Pony Townend Pippin aka Jack. 12 yr old Fell Pony gelding. Jack arrived at the stud as a 6month old colt destined to be the new stallion at the stud. He was turned away to grow up. At 3 he was turned out with his first mares, with great success. By the time he was 7 he was brought in from the field as now his daughters had reach age. This is how he stayed untill he was 91/2 yrs old (keeping the cows company). The elderly owner finally decided to have him gelded. 3 months later he was finally turned out again. He failed to thrive and became ill. Back into the stable he went. Gradually he improved with the help of NAF immuforte and was turned out again. At this point the stud owner became too ill to keep the stud going and it was decided to disperse the stock. All that was left were Jack and his youngest daughter Justa. June 2015 Jack left the farm by tractor and cattle trailer to attend his first in-hand show. (He had not left the farm since he arrived at 6months old). In a well attended local show he came 2nd, and found his new owner. Ellice Johnson fell head over heals in love with him. She persuaded her parents to let her have him on loan to break him in (he was 11 yrs old) as a summer project. His charm won everyone over and Ellice became his official owner at Christmas 2015. So time to take him out to see the world. Heathfield show was the plan. So for 3 months leading upto the show he was fed NAF linseed oil, and show prep bathed in NAF wash and show dark coat shampoo. The polishing began. Silky mane and tail to tame his wild mane and tail, oil it well on his muzzle and eyes, paint it black on his hooves and the final touch of Razzle Dazzle them all over Townend Pippin was ready for the ring. As the light caught his coat he shone much like his personality. He was a total gentlemen and foot perfect. Placing a respectable 2nd in his class. Happy smiles all round. The next step is to get him shiny enough to visit HRH The Queen as 90 Fell ponies provide a guard of honour at Windsor Castle in celebration of the Queen's 90th Birthday. Fingers crossed for Ellice and Jack.
"I use a number of NAF products, from supplements to grooming products, but I always make sure that I have NAF Silky Mane & Tail D-Tangler and NAF Off Deet Power Performance in my grooming kit. I also love NAF's Garlic Granules and the Mud Gard Supplement!"

"One of my favourite products is NAF Silky Mane & Tail D-Tangler, it is a key product in our show preparation. This conditioning spray, in my opinion, is the best on the market. The horses' tails stay silky and full for days after use and as with all NAF products, it’s great to know that they are developed within FEI Clean Sport guidelines."
"The only detangler I use is NAF Silky Mane & Tail D-Tangler. It smells amazing and stops Taboo's mane drying out!"
"Her mane is stunning. We spray it a few times a week with Silky Mane & Tail D-Tangler; it smells amazing!"
"Orla's silky mane is maintained with Silky Mane & Tail D-Tangler. As you can probably see, Orla has a huge amount of mane & I have only ever used Silky on her."
"I use alot of NAF Products. My favourites are the Silky Mane & Tail Detangler and Plait It Up Spray. Plait It Up helps my plaits stay neat and tidy and create show stopping plaits every-time. Silky helps my horse's mane and tail stay knot-free as-well as being soft and shiny.”
We recently tried NAF’s Brighter Than White, Silky Mane & Tail D-Tangler and Show Off to get our grey pony sparkling for a pony club competition. They worked a treat and our team won the tack and turnout!
“We love the NAF Silky Mane & Tail D-Tangler. We use it on a regular basis before riding, on pamper days, before shows and outings. I really wouldn’t use anything else! The gorgeous scent really leaves Zorro’s mane and tail smelling divine and feeling so silky and smooth.”
“We love using NAF Skin Wash after clipping and to keep their coats looking great from any grease and dirty. We also love Silky Mane and Tail D-Tangler in our daily grooming routine to keep the manes and tails looking fabulous!”
My favourite NAF product is the Silky Mane & Tail D-Tangler Spray. I love the spray to make Penny’s mane and tail silkier and tangle free. Using the mane and tail spray makes her show ready in minutes.
I use the NAF Silky Mane & Tail D-Tangler regularly to help keep Sam's mane in great condition and knot free and it allows me to plait up with ease. It's my favourite NAF product because it smells good and works so well. It makes grooming Sam so much easier and I know it's a brand I can trust. At 17.3hh there is a lot of horse to groom so products like this make a massive difference.
Olly owned and ridden by Danielle Hughes. "We put Olly on a course of NAF D-Tox and then started him on Superflex' and Slim. We have now qualified for HOYS (Amateur Classic Final). I am certain that putting him onto the Slim and Superflex supplements have played a huge part in his success. HOYS is obviously the epitome, but Olly has also qualified for every other final he has been eligible for this season, including Scope Festival and Amateur Championships!" Danielle Hughes
In spite of careful feeding offering a balanced low calorie, high fibre diet and being in hard work, Diamond Jubilee (Monty) continued to put on weight. Then we discovered new NAF Slim. We were understandably sceptical that this product would be of any help, but the difference has been astonishing. I now have a more trim and toned horse who feels fantastic in himself and looks amazing. His improved physique helps him to cope with the physical demands of high level dressage too. I really would not have believed a supplement could have made such a difference. Thank you NAF!
Beth is an 11 year old Welsh Section D x TB that I have on loan, she has done little work over the last twelve months and has just started her fittening work for the season ahead. Beth is fed Slim and in just two weeks along with exercise she has lost a massive 2 1/2 inches off her tummy and nearly 3 inches of the crest of her neck. The shine on her coat is incredible! Her diet is also supplemented with a maintenance dose of Superflex and Electro Salts. She looks fab and feels great! To all at NAF, thank you very much, especially the wonderful Sue Frewin that advised this was the best product to use! Jo Elliott
"I have always found it difficult to keep weight off my mare as she is an extremely good doer but lacks energy if her diet is restricted. She is exercised several times a week but she seemed to be stuck at around 600kg. After introducing SLIM I was astonished to find that alongside her feed and exercise regime the stubborn fat patches and weight dropped off and as a result she is much more fit and enthusiastic and so able to do more exercise. She looks a different horse! We had her weighed on the Dengie weight bridge at 600kg before we started SLIM and after 4 months on SLIM she was weighed again and had lost 84kg!!"

“I have had my daughters horse on NAF SLIM. He can be a fussy eater but ate this no problem. We are very pleased with the results and overall improvement of his coat. He has kept a constant weight after he slimmed down and passed his yearly vet check. Even our vet commented on his overall condition. Highly recommended.”
Just thought I'd share pictures of my pony Jacob, I bought him in August 2015 weighing 500kg, after feeding Laminaze and Slim he looks fantastic, is in work and we're looking forward to doing pleasure rides this year. I also use PROFEET Rock Hard for his soft feet and frogs which are now healthier than ever. Layne Wilson
“After only 17 days on SLIM I could see a difference and his girth went up 3 holes! Two tubs later he’s bang on weight, and is now on top form, I can’t believe how fast he’s lost it.. think I’m going to start myself on the NAF SLIM!”
"I used to think it would be great to have horses that can 'live on fresh air' until I had a herd of them! I realised then that there was very little out there to help support the good-doer. I wanted to find a way of making sure they were getting everything they need to support them nutritionally while keeping their weight under control... Slim is absolutely brilliant it gives me total peace of mind... I only wish they could make a human version! "
Saddlery & Gun Room
“I was recommended SLIM for my cobs waist line. It comes in a pellet form which is very palatable and easy to feed. It has helped with his weight but did take a couple of months to see, obviously with being worked as well. Would definitely recommend.”
"I have been feeding Slim for just under a year now and it has been a life saver! It was recommended to me by my trainer and friend Bobby Hayler and it has done him the world of good as he is naturally curvy!"
Even with a carefully controlled diet and plenty of work, our much loved New Forest pony Jack was often carrying too much weight. Jack is 19 and has EMS, so it is crucial that we keep his weight at a healthy level. Slim has been a huge help over the last year and Jack has maintained a healthy weight throughout the year.
I am so impressed with NAF Slim! Snoopy had a year off due to injury which meant that the inevitable happened and he put on weight, despite being on restricted grazing and soaked hay! After the go ahead from the vet I brought him back into work and even though his waistline was slowly shrinking his neck & shoulders were holding onto those stubborn fat deposits. After a month and a half of Slim being added into Snoopy's diet, his neck has softened & the fat deposits on his shoulders have shrunk for the first time in seven years! I am thrilled with the results!
“The Traveller (or Archie as he is known at home) used to suffer with faecal water and loose droppings. After trying several other, our NAF Area Sales Manager, Jen Rollason, suggested Five Star GastriVet. It’s made an amazing difference, he’s a much happier horse and we have no more loose droppings staining his legs. We also love NAF Show Off shampoo, it’s amazing for removing stains and highlighting the colours in Archie’s coat.”
"On fourth tub on NAF Slim now and it's defo keeping Bramble’s weight in check. My other pony who is on medication for Cushings doesn't get the supplement, they are both fed the exact same diet and turn out time and he is fatter than Bramble."
“A couple of years ago I started feeding my Dartmoor Hill pony Snoopy NAF Slim, after a consultation with Cat from NAF. He was struggling to shift some excess weight after an injury and I was amazed by the results. Fat deposits on his shoulders melted away & his neck became so much softer. I was thrilled to finally have a balancer that worked! Fast forward to Winter 2022 and like many others I was struggling financially. Snoopy was looking so good; I became complacent and decided to cut out the Slim. Slowly the weight crept back on and in May 2023 my beloved boy became sensitive to seasonal pasture changes. Feeling guilty I spoke with Cat who was extremely sympathetic and understanding. She recommended Snoopy went back onto Slim and to add Five Star Laminaze as well. Both I could safely feed alongside his medication. Five months later, Snoopy is 63kg lighter and he is recovering well. I strongly believe the combination of these two products have played a significant part in Snoopy's recovery. A million times, thank you to Cat & the NAF team!”
After I had just got Tiko, we were looking into getting some feed or liquid to make it easier for Tiko to extend his joints when jumping. As we already have a lot of NAF products (and we love them) we got Tiko some NAF Five Star Superflex. After just a couple of weeks giving him this, we started to see a massive improvement in the way he was stretching out. After a few more weeks we really could see the improvement! He didn't just look better, he also felt better when I was riding him. NAF has supplied so many amazing products and it's safe to say, both me and the horses have loved every single feed we have given them belonging to NAF!
"This is Biscuit, he is a 19 yr old 16hh homebred thoroughbred cross. He is a lovely kind natured horse who is loved by everyone who meets him and needless to say his health is extremely important to me. I would never describe him as stiff at all and everyone comments how well and young he looks for his age, but I was noticing at the beginning of the winter that whilst out hacking he would occasionally feel like his leg was knuckling. This was starting to happen sometimes 3 or 4 times during a ride so I started to use NAF Five Star Superflex powder. I gave him the loading rate of 6 scoops for seven days and then on to maintenance of 3 scoops per day. By the second half of the pot he was knuckling less and by the second pot there was more improvement. I've been using it ever since and even though he feels like it gives way from time to time the difference is significant." Tam Gruet
Ben's two JA ponies are both nineteen, we feed Superflex to help support them. Thanks once again for the Shining Star items Ben received, he proudly wears his jacket to shows, including grooming for us at a senior show last weekend! Joanne Fairbrother
"I have been feeding Five Star Superflex to my horses for nearly 10 years and consider it a vital part of their diet. From my horse at FEI*** level to my semi-retired veteran, they all benefit from the synergy of ingredients included in Superflex to help ensure their joints are fit and ready for the rigours of the sport. I wouldn't feed without it." Abbi Tennant & Bari
Here is a photo of my lovely horse Lumiere de Normandie. I have brought him all the way up the levels from prelim to contest his first Grand Prix this year for which he scored over 65 percent so I'm very proud of him as you can imagine. He is coming up for twelve now, and has been on a daily maintenance level of Superflex powder since he was five years old to support his joints throughout his training, and some of his hair raising antics in the field! Superflex is excellent; I’m always recommending it to friends. Sascha Ashby Photography credit Kevin Sparrow
Friday has been eventing for almost nine years and has been up to Intermediate level. I have owned him for a year and have always used NAF Superflex. I am assured that his joints are in good condition as we compete in British Eventing events regularly. The product has given Friday an excellent way of going and helped him to go double clear or placed in all of his events in 2015. Millie Wain and 14-year-old 'Feeling Friday' (Friday).
Just wanted to say a huge thank you for the goodies received for Tilly after she won the NAF Shining Star award last month. She's already getting plenty of use out of her coat and saddlecloth, obviously lucky for her as she wore them last weekend at the Arena UK 2 day show and won both days! We have been feeding Superflex for a while now so were very grateful for the pot in Tillys goody box. Here is a pic of Tilly and her 20yr old pony Spooky Lucy jumping amazingly thanks to NAFs help with keeping her joints in excellent condition. She certainly doesn't act her age. We also use Show Off shampoo, we first used it when we were sent it as part of the package from completing the NAF 2* awards, won't be using anything else from now on, it's so quick and easy to use. She's a bit of a mud monster and it does a fab job of cleaning her up. Jodie Shaw
My ponies compete at top level mounted games and I need to ensure I keep them at their best and that they are provided with the best possible joint support due to the speed, turning and pressure that their joints endure. In order to keep my ponies joints healthy and flexible I feed Naf 5* Superflex. Without this my ponies would not be at the best of their game, highly recommended. Sam Clements (Yorkshire based mounted games rider)
This is Sonic, my soon to be 18 year old Arab having fun in the snow in January. He is an ex Showjumper/Eventer who started showing signs of stiffness when coming out of his stable in the morning. Rachel from NAF recommended Superflex and I noticed a significant difference within just a month of use. He still thinks he's a 5 year old and thanks to NAF is still feeling great. I highly recommend this product as Sonic is fully enjoying his semi-retirement and so am I! Thank you Rachel & the team at NAF Jude Lakey-WT Gibsons
"We love NAF products, especially NAF Five Star Superflex as Tao needs support in both stifles. He has been on your Superflex supplement for some time now to support his joints. Our vet cannot believe he's the same horse because he could barely trot before, and now he's offering passage!" Lucy Chester and Tao
I love all of your products I think they are absolutely brilliant ! The products we use for Apollo are Superflex and Ice Cool. Almost immediately we found signs of improvement and before we knew it he was cantering in the field and was strong and fit enough to ride ! On my other horse I use Razzle Dazzle Them on his tail and it is superb it made his tail look extremely healthy and pure black. During the summer season we use Profeet and Electro salts to keep the horses feeling good and full of energy especially at Pony Club camp at Somerford Park when we are out twice a day for 5 days under the sun. I also use Sheer Luxe Leather Balsam on our tack and it is the best leather cleaner I have ever used making the leather soft and looking showjumping ring ready ! I could use all NAF products since they are excellent and really show results. Lauren Drew Barrett
This is Chance, my 25yr old Shire x TB gelding. He is my first horse and has been with me since a 3yr old. We have done a bit of everything together over the years and he still enjoys hacking, some Showing and even the odd half a days hunting with the Berkeley. In the pic he can be seen taking overall Champion at Kings Sedgemoor. In the 22 years we have been together I have always used NAF products. Chance is fed NAF SuperFlex which in my opinion is a superb product and nothing else on the market can beat it. I have certainly noticed a massive improvement in Chance's performance, especially now he is older. My 'must have' in the grooming box is NAF Silky mane & tail, I will not brush out his tail without it. It is superb for thick tails that become tangled, making the job easy and keeping the tail thick and shiny. For the first aid kit it's Naturalintx, Purple spray and Arnica Gel all the way. I also have a new mare who shares all the above products with Chance, and, if needed, will be fed NAF Oestress. For as long as I own horses I will remain loyal to NAF products.....why.....because they are excellent value for money and THEY WORK. Charlotte Brain
Autumnal Breeze is a 16hh ID x TB Veteran mare. She has been on your Five Star Superflex for quite some time and finds it outstanding. We are now going over to your Superflex Senior. Not only do we do showing, we also do the advanced medium dressage movements with ease, and it is comforting to know that your products really do work, and the proof is in the pudding. As you can see from the photograph. Photo credit - Gemineye Photography
Monkey Business is my 11 year old Dutch Warmblood, I give him Superflex to improve his performance for Cross Country. It really helps support him where he needs it most. We wouldn't be without it! Nita Dervish Lang and Monkey Business
Just wanted to say how great the results have been from putting Chuck on Superflex. Chuck wasn't on a joint supplement before this and although not old at just turning 9 he isn't the smallest of horses at 17.2hh. He has just finished his first pot and I have noticed a huge difference in him. His worked has improved showing more expression and flexibility. Also his warming/ loosening up time seems to have reduced both at home and whilst competing which has helped him move forward with his work and education. The last couple of tests I have completed have improved too and would say a rise in average score of about 8% and we now have hit the 70% mark and hoping to continue to improve. Nicci Bunting & Chuck
Here is Jasmin Teague on her homebred Welsh PB 'Garthfach Push On'. He has Pink Powder and Superflex. Jasmin said, "Pink Powder keeps my pony fit all year round!". Mum, Penny Teague has also enclosed a photo of their liveries who all have NAF products. Penny explains, "My feed room looks a bit like a NAF shop."
Briony Cutler riding Hilkens Charismatic owned by Morgan Equine "My favourite NAF product is NAF Five Star Superflex. We feed it to the competition horses at home and we also use it for some of the horses at the college because they need to be flexible and fit."
Abigail Coverdale & Bobby "My favourite product is NAF Five Star Superflex! It has really improved my pony's performance and has allowed his work load to increase so he is successful at this level."
I have been using NAF Five Star Superflex for around a year and a half now. I love this product! I have all my horses on it as it helps them be more supple, flexible and happier in themselves. I would highly recommend this product to anyone! After using Superflex my horses have been placed higher in competitions and are much easier to work when schooling at home!
Warrior currently has NAF Five Star Superflex as part of his diet. I really like this product as it helps to keep his joints really supple and flexible, I know he likes the supplement to as he always gives the jumps lots of room so must be feeling flexible!
McCoy is fed Superflex and it keeps him supple and performing at his best.
"Jaguar is a 23yr Old TB Ex-Racehorse, who does not believe he has stopped racing! During his Racing career he had 65 starts, he went on to P2P, Hunt and now hacks 5 days a week. His joints have been put under a lot of stress during his career. I found NAF Five Star Superflex and I feel that the Superflex has paid a part in keeping the inevitable away! Thank you!"
"This is me and ‘Fly me to the moon’ on our show jumping competition when we qualified for cricklands championship of Great Britain. We use your Superflex and we compete every week."
"My Hero product is NAF Five Star Superflex. I've used it for years! I lost my horse Indie last year as an 18 year old. I’d had her from a 3 year old. As she hit 12 she was showing signs of being stiff in her jumping. Someone recommended your product and the results were amazing. She became much more supple and happier in her jumping. I used it for the rest of her life. Upon losing her I then found Raff (Raphael). I took up dressage for the first time in my 60 years! All Raff had done in his past was Trec. I have continued to use your product with him and I am convinced it has helped with his suppleness. I use it every day and will continue to do so. To win at the BRC Championships was a total shock. We’ve only been doing dressage for 6 months now. I am so proud of him but am convinced it’s also due to using your product."
"I use your products all the time on my gelding Ronnie. He’s always on top form thanks to NAF Superflex supplement giving him the extra freedoms he needs in his joints, and NAF Show Off shampoo for show days always making us shine and be our best selves!"
"My daughter Olivia has been feeding her pony Tetley NAF Five Star Superflex and as you can see from their recent show jumping picture, it is being put to good use, supporting his joint health. Tetley is a 13.2hh, 12yr old Welsh Sec C gelding. He leads an active life including competing for NSEA inter schools and pony club teams."
"Diesel is a 12 year old Welsh D x Cob and we use NAF Five Star Superflex to help support his joints. This supplement has made a significant impact to Diesel and the benefits of this product shine through in his work. We love and recommend this product!"
"We started Rhodri on the NAF Five Star Superflex 3 months ago and in such a short amount of time he has improved so much. My 24 year old pony has been on NAF Five Star Superflex for the last 10 years and is still competing Riding Club and British Showjumping and loving life. It has helped them both in being supple and comfortable in their work."
"NAF Five Star Superflex helps my 15 year old showjumping pony stay flexible."
"Juniper's overall stiffness has improved dramatically, especially in her right hind. Without it she takes longer to warm up and sometimes breaks out of canter. My instructor could clearly see the difference too. This product has made schooling much easier and she is more comfortable overall."
"At the age of 14, almost 6 years of riding and 3 ponies later, Abbie is looking forward to a busy year. To keep Robin in tip top condition Abbie adds Pink powder and Superflex to his daily feed. She was hugely impressed with the noticeable difference in his condition after only one week and she knows that his joints will be supple and flexible ready for the intense season ahead."

"All our horses have been on top form, with Gloria, our home bred, performing really well having stepped up to 1.40. We feed Five Star Superflex daily, which has kept them sound and athletic enough to compete at this level."
“NAF Five Star Superflex is really good for my horse Sally. When we go jumping it makes her move nicely and we get lots of compliments. It’s really good for her joints and I can see a difference.”
"Song is on NAF Five Star Superflex and it’s a miracle!! He’s much more sound than any other supplement we have used on him. At 22 he needs extra support, having previously been Eventing at 1*. Here he is last week winning a hunter trial! He is loving life!"
"I just wanted to rate your product Superflex. We had our Shire on it about six months we took him off it for two weeks and he went lame so put him back on and a week later he’s sound. Can’t believe how fantastic this works just wanted to thank you for this wonderful product!"
Déjà vu (Molly) is now 15 years old and I have had the pleasure of owning and riding her for the last 12 years. As SDRC members, we have been to the BRC Winter Show Jumping Championships twice, the BRC National Championships twice and the Horse Trials Championships twice; my daughter rode her there again this year. Molly has been on NAF in the Pink Powder for approximately ten years and Superflex for the last two, we wouldn’t change a thing. Photo credit - Action Replay Photography
We decided to try NAF Superflex for our fabulous pony Bertie to help him as he moves into his senior years. I am very happy with the product. Bertie, now 17 years old, looks and feels amazing and is out competing regularly with me and my daughter. Here he is with my daughter Charlotte, out showjumping recently where they came 2nd in a 90cm class. He also events at 80cm and does grassroots dressage with me. I will certainly be keeping Bertie on NAF Superflex.
“I’ve owned Argenda for a short time and since owning him, he's been fed on NAF Five Star Metazone, Five Star Superflex and in the Pink Powder. They've given him springs and my trainer, Johnathan Bowman, who has known him for years, says he’s never seen him looking and jumping so well.”
“I feed NAF Five Star Superflex to Millie to help support her joints. Since feeding Superflex I feel she is moving the best she ever has both on the flat and jumping. We also love NAF Off Deet which has proven to be hugely successful at keeping the flies away and is great to see her not being tormented by them now both in the field and whilst competing. Here we are at Badminton Grassroots Championships this year!"
Of all of the NAF products that I use, NAF Five Star Superflex is my champion product. Superflex is my go to because it contains all of the nutrients that my horse, Fergal, needs to support the health of his joints. I know that I can rely on NAF to ensure that the ingredients in Superflex are of the highest quality and in the correct ratios for optimal absorption. This keeps Fergal in tip top condition so that he can perform at his greatest. Fergal is a true all-rounder and real life ‘Super Cob’, and he deserves the best, so he gets the best in Superflex.
"With Indy being an ex-racehorse and being raced at a young age I wanted to support her joints. I started feeding her Superflex and can see a massive difference in her movement already. I totally recommend this product!"
I have owned Toomar for 25 years and I just take him low level hacking as his joints are quite stiff. I only changed to Superflex a week and half ago and it already feels like I have a new horse! Rather than plodding up to the gate he is cantering across to me, and he feels so much more comfortable to ride.
Seamus (Cocum Atlantic Goose) a 21 year old Connemara owned and ridden by Sandra Bernstein. Before Sandra noticed that Seamus was beginning to become stiff and had difficulties walking downhill. Sandra decided to try Superflex Liquid as recommended by her local tack shop. After Says Sandra, "Just one week on and Seamus is no longer showing signs of stiffness as he once was, Superflex Liquid has made a huge difference to him, he now marches downhill! Also, I noticed that he is no longer stiff at the poll or in the neck and therefore we have extended trots again! I can also forgive him for galloping past me in the darkness when I am trying to catch him at night as he obviously feels great!"
Amy Croxton & Blue, Atherstone Riding Club "Blue could sometimes be a little stiff so, after the fantastic results we achieved with Magic, we tried Superflex to help with his suppleness. The results were amazing, speaking for themselves - Blue has competed at the Championships for five consecutive years and he's been a winner twice!"
"I would just like to say how amazing your products are, especially the Superflex Liquid. My horse was not at his best at the end of last season and thanks to your product he has made a fine recovery and is on top form. MANY THANKS for your amazing work and products, a truly happy customer." Rebecca Dorey and Sammy.
“I started Blue on Superflex Senior only 6 weeks ago and I have noticed a huge difference, he feels super strong and supple!”

"My hero product is NAF Superflex Liquid. I use this product for my 17 years old gelding Capua. It keeps him in good condition for jumping. Since I have started using NAF Superflex Liquid his performance became better. We are preparing for competition 1,30m class."
“I feed NAF Five Star Superflex to Millie to help support her joints. Since feeding Superflex I feel she is moving the best she ever has both on the flat and jumping.

Some time ago, my elderly horse Zebedee (nearly 30) developed a few worrying symptoms. During a chat with local NAF representative she recommended Superflex Senior and Go Sound for me to try and, I have to say, the combination of these products seemed to have a very positive effect on Zebedee. These products gave Zebedee a real boost and he seems to have much freer movement.
Moet is a 14 year old active cob mare. Her owner Julie is careful to keep her sound. Julie says, ‘I wanted to do the best for Moet’s joints so I was thrilled to try Superflex Senior. Since being on Superflex Senior Moet has been happy, sound and forward going in her work – I will definitely be keeping her on it.’
Meet the Superflex Senior Ambassador - Aldborough Rubinhall. Rubin is a 13 year old Grand Prix dressage horse, ridden by Bobby Hayler. Homebred, Rubin was a late developer, he doesn't have ideal conformation for a dressage horse and can struggle to get warmed up into his work. As a result of his conformation Rubin found it quite difficult to perform the high level Grand Prix movements. Now on Superflex Senior, Bobby says 'We're thrilled! Rubin is going so well. We've seen no signs of his previous issues, and he's now getting over 70% at Grand Prix - Rubin will definitely be staying on Superflex Senior.'
We've always fed Superflex to our horses, and now the New Superflex Senior. Marcel des Rosiers won the Six year old Welsh Masters championship, and is now Champion there again ten years on. I'm sure Superflex and Superflex Senior have been key ingredients in this horse's winning performances throughout his long career. Johnathan Bowman
Magic - 18yrs old. Magic had been doing well on his previous joint supplement, but as he got a bit older the years were evident. Now sound and happy on Superflex Senior we'll definitely be keeping him on it. Superflex Senior keeps him young!
Rob - 24yrs old. Rob had slowed down as he'd got into his twenties, which isn't like him. Now on Superflex Senior he's never felt better, he wants to go hacking and he's even enjoying a good canter again!
Jack is 25 this year and is on the NAF Five Star Superflex Senior. I mainly do showing with him and we always get complimented on how well he looks and moves for his age. We always do very well in affiliated veteran classes. This year I am hoping to continue with my showing and elementary dressage. I believe that NAF Five Star Superflex Senior has helped us achieve what we have. Jack is still in full work and enjoys jumping.
I was looking for a joint supplement for my daughters games pony, and decided to try Superflex Senior (as Rolo is 26 yrs old!), although still an awesome competition pony, he had started to slow up a bit in the races, taking it more cautiously around the tight turns, and I had noticed him to be sometimes slightly unsound in trot. I was worried he had come to the end of his competition life, but decided to try another joint supplement in hope it might make a difference. Well, almost from the first day of taking the supplement he has become a different pony! You would think he was 12 not 26! He is now back out competing at top level qualifying to compete in the main ring at the Royal Bath & West show on all 4 days, coming 5th at British Individuals MGA the following weekend, and then being selected for the England South team MGA. Thank you so much to you at NAF, without this supplement my daughter wouldn't be having such a fantastic year with her incredible pony, with many more competitions to look forward to. Thank you again, Julie O'Hara, Aimee & Rolo
Charlotte Roe & 16 year old Sky High AKA Sid "I noticed when Sid reached 14 after many years of BE, hacking, fun rides and general horsing around that he was becoming a little stiff and didn't 'float' as well round the school. I felt I owed it to Sid try and make him more comfortable and I needed a joint supplement with some real UMPH! I saw a shiny new tub of NAF Five Star Superflex Senior on the self of the local tack shop, thought I would give it a go and I haven't looked back since. What an amazing, remarkable difference this has made to the way Sid moves, in the field and under the saddle. He feels like he is 8 again with a big bouncy stride, he has started to extended and bend again! He looks so much more comfortable and seems happier in himself than he was before I started feeding it. A big thank you to NAF!"
Amber Wood & 24year old cob gelding He really benefits having something to support his joints and I can feel when being ridden when he hasn't been on his supplements! We decided to give the NAF Five Star Senior Superflex a go as my other three competition horses are on NAF Five Star Superflex. Superflex Senior has worked wonders - it really gives him a boost and keeps his joints acting and working how they should! Since seeing how well it works for him I have kept giving him it and have never had an issue, keeping my horse feeling young and moving young is an important factor for me as I like my horses to be very supple and able to work right along there backs into there hind and having him on this supplement really works!
Maxine Whitehouse & Jimmy Jimmy is 23 years old and this picture was taken last month. He is ridden four times a week and is still jumping small jumps. He has been on NAF Five Star Superflex for years and I changed last month to NAF Five Star Superflex Senior.
I'm super pleased. Trying to get Antonio to actually eat a joint supplement has always been problematic, I think it is safe to say he is a fussy eater! However, NAF Superflex Senior - Not a problem! We've noticed a difference already and haven't got to the end of the tub, so thank you so much! He's 22 years old, a true golden oldie! He's my best pal, and a top Para Pony, keeping me going in the sport I love!
"This is Saffie she is a 16 year old welsh x warmblood mare who I have owned for the last 10 years. We absolutely love your products and use a wide range of them on a daily basis. Our favourites have to be the Superflex Senior which keeps Saffie supple and sound but we absolutely adore the love the skin he’s in wash. It’s great to use after clipping but also for wiping her over after riding to remove any sweat and grease using the cleansing cloth. The shine and softness she is left with after using your products is amazing! Thankyou for keeping my horse looking and feeling so great! We couldn’t do it without you!"
We use you products all the time! We feed your NAF Five Star Superflex Senior to our old pony Barney. We didn’t think he’d be able to do much anymore but since we began using your products his joint have improved massively!! He is now out and about jumping 1.15 classes!! We also use you electrolytes on all our ponies and it too has made a huge difference to them! We just can’t thank you enough for what you have done for us!
“This is my mare Sian, who you will see is 23 yrs young, thanks to NAF Senior Superflex!”
"Just wanted to say thank you, I won a tub of Five Star Superflex Senior in the summer camp comp - trying it out on my 14 yr old warmblood who is starting to show reduced flexibility in his fetlock joints. Hoping it will make a difference!"
"Here is 18 yr old Diamond Kitt.
We bought him as 3yr old direct from the breeder in Marchington Derby, who also bred Matthew Sampson’s 2 times Hickstead Speed Derby winner Topflight True Carlo!
Kitt has always been a super star and like a good wine seems to get better with age.
He competes in everything from showing, working hunter, SJ & Team Chasing and is kept fit by working in our riding school. He however is at his happiest on the hunting field whether it be side-saddle or astride can be seen near the front of the field most weeks with The Readyfield Bloodhounds flying over anything he’s pointed at. Without doubt he’s helped to stay in tip top condition and feel at his best thanks to his favourite NAF Supplements. Kitt has been having both Superflex Senior and M-Power for the last two seasons and feels fitter and better than ever always has a spring in his step and holds his condition better throughout the hunt season."
"Roxy broke her leg in September 2018. NAF advised to start Roxy straight away on Superflex Senior to help maintain her joints, especially as she wasn't moving a lot. She was bandaged and on box rest for 6 months. Roxy has been on Superflex Senior ever since and I see a massive difference in her movement. I have now started riding her again! I would recommend Superflex Senior, Roxy is more supple and she doesn't seize up standing in the stable overnight."
"Phoenix is a 10 year old 16hh TB x Connemara whom I have owned for 3 years, he had done a little of everything when I bought him but was still very green. He's a good all rounder but especially loves his jumping and has been competing at affiliated eventing for the last 2 years currently at 100 level. A year ago my instructor picked up that he was struggling slightly with his off side hock and suggested having his hock injected. However, I decided to go down the supplement route first, and tried NAF Five Star Superflex Senior. I didn't have another session with my instructor for the first 6 weeks of using this product, but when she did see him for the first time after starting Superflex Senior she was extremely impressed... Phoenix was showing no signs of a hock issue at all. I've continued to use this product and Phoenix is going better than ever, with the help of an occasional tube of NAF Instant Magic to settle him before his dressage. I also use Five Star PROFEET powder to improve his feet as he can tend to have brittle feet in the summer. I will be continuing with all 3 of these products as they all seem to be doing their job, I've a happy horse so I'm a happy owner!"
"Banta is fed on the Superflex Senior which aids her joints and keeps them healthy! I wouldn't use any other product!"
"The Superflex Senior has made a massive difference for Ned. He recently spent 4 nights at the Three Counties Show and returned home a lot less stiff than he usually is. We are really impressed with the difference it has made for him (he has even thrown in a few cheeky bucks whilst being ridden, something he has never done in his 14 years!). He appears to be much happier in himself and whilst working. Our 11 year old mare (BV) retired to stud this year as she was becoming stiffer whilst being ridden but having seen such good results with Ned we will be trying the supplements with her. The whitening products also made a signficant improvement on how white their feathers are. We have never used a product like this before and were again very impressed in the quality of the finish. You could really see the difference when we did a comparison with 2 horses - 1 using the product and 1 not. We have been really impressed with the quality of your products (we have tried many previously!) and hope to continue using them."
"I would like to thank you for the advice you gave me ref the Superflex Senior. Declan - my 26 year old ex-racer / eventer / hunter - has been on it now for 1 month. Having been on your standard Superflex for about 10 years I made the straight swap onto the Senior, and he feels fabulous. He is still very active hacking and cubbing & this has defiantly had a really positive impact on him. He has more 'bounce', which makes us both happy!!"
"I have owned J’Lo (Vistimar) for over 4 years now. We have such a strong partnership and have achieved many awards over the years. For example winning PC Championships in Intermediate Dressage and Eventing, Winning the BE100 Scottish points series and various other competitions. JLo will be 19 next year but she shows no signs in slowing down. Anyone that has watched her has said she looks and rides like a young horse. I believe that the NAF Superflex Senior has had a huge effect on this. Super super product. Would recommend to anyone."
Wilson has a wonderful attitude and always tries to please. Superflex Senior gives Wilson the flexibility to stretch through the back and helps protect his joints from the concussion while jumping. Since being on Superflex Senior Wilson has moved from Unaffiliated Show jumping to Affiliated Show jumping and though we keep him at the lower levels you can tell by his face how happy he is.
“Smurf is on Superflex Liquid. I had him on it through last summer and now wouldn’t change it!”
"Sweep is the best pony ever and we recently won a 50cm Eventer Challenge! As Sweep is getting a bit older now, we feed him Superflex Senior and I think it really helps him to jump the bigger jumps."
I started Murphy on Superflex Senior last year as he is 18 now and he still enjoys being ridden, but I could feel that he wasn't as supple as he once was. He has always been fed a joint supplement but on Superflex Senior, I really noticed a difference within a few weeks, he was less stiff and took less time to warm up. My special friend thoroughly deserves Superflex Senior and here's to many more years doing what we love best.
"I have owned this beautiful gelding Llanina Meriadoc since July 2002. We climbed up through the dressage levels with scores of up to 73% and he now retired, but is looking fabulous thanks to NAF! Together with good feed; Superflex Senior, Respirator Boost and the Veteran Supplement help him to stay looking wonderful at the age of 30."
Junior is 18 and has been fed on the amazing Superflex Senior for over a year now. He's jumping better than ever, producing consistent clear rounds and even winning! He feels a million dollars!
“Marvin was put onto NAF Five Star Superflex Senior in June 2022. He has been under the care of our physio who has reported an improvement in walk from both hind limbs; he’s tracking up so much better with no restricted protraction. He is using his hind limbs better than before and she assessed better hock and stifle flexion. We are thrilled with the results.”
“I have owned Charlie for nine years and he is now 16. During these nine years he has undergone a major foot operation on both front feet. The prognosis from this operation was not good and I was told I would be lucky to be able to hack him out. Since his operation I have used a couple of joint supplements and have found that NAF Superflex Senior is the best one for Charlie. He is has stayed comfortable and I am really happy with his soundness and joint movement. I have since been able to take him to Riding Club sessions and even been on a fun ride which he loved.”
"I started feeding Five Star Metazone about three weeks ago and I’m absolutely overwhelmed! Combined with Five Star Superflex Senior, my 18 year old dressage horse Gracjano is so smooth and flexible in his joints and very relaxed in the muscles, alongside Five Star M Power. I cannot be more satisfied with the results! Metazone has clearly done an amazing job alongside the other two supplements he’s currently on. Thank you NAF for making my horse feel young and flexible!"
"I have always fed NAF products to Piglet now 22 years young. Now he has In the Pink Senior and Superflex Senior, and looks better than ever. Thanks to Jo Howse who has helped us since she joined NAF many years ago."
"Murphy has taken NAF Superflex Senior for a number of years now after his joints started showing signs of his age. Murphy is nearly 24yrs old and I am still able to take him out on hacks confident that his shoulders and hind legs are being kept healthy to continue."
"As Emma was getting into her later years I felt it was time to add something to her diet to help keep her in the best shape I could. After only having her on Superflex Senior for a couple of weeks, it was like riding a different horse!!"
"Don Joshi is a Dressage legend! Having won team Bronze at the European Pony Championships in 2007 with Emily Harris (now Ormerod) he has been instrumental in helping numerous riders with their Dressage careers. At 28yrs he looks fantastic on NAF Senior Superflex, and still competes with my daughter Olivia."
"I have been using NAF Five Star Senior Superflex for two years now and I have to say it is like magical rocket fuel. It keeps my old boy sound and forward and really is a must have supplement which I would not be without - it really does give us wings!"
“My horse had recently endured a busy training and competition schedule which took a lot out of her. I was therefore very grateful to be offered the chance to trial Metazone. This has supported my horse's recovery and helped to optimise her condition and energy levels. I now feed this as a short term boost after travelling and competing. I also feed Superflex Senior, which is another NAF product that we couldn’t do without!”
"Using Superflex Senior has made a huge difference to Spicy Lady, my racehorse come broodmare come eventer! At 17, we are looking to get back out into our second season eventing. Having recently had foot X-rays conducted, both my vet and farrier were impressed. Superflex Senior is certainly helping her in her third career."
We have owned Duncan, a 13.2hh Connemara bred pony, for two years and he has the heart of a lion. Duncan loves to work and look after his rider but in December 2022, he became very unwell. Further investigation resulted in a poor prognosis of returning to top track showjumping. We nursed him round the clock following all the advice from our farrier and vets and one other thing that 100% got us through this awful period was Superflex Senior. Stabling Duncan for a prolonged period of time was a real worry but he never showed any stiffness at all. We did take him off of it at one point in his recovery because we were scared to use anything, however, his mobility and comfort was greatly reduced and we put him straight back on it. Needless to say he quickly returned to his cheeky self. Duncan is now back to full health competing on the Scottish team and looking to pick up his tickets for Hickstead and Horse of the Year Show. We now feed Superflex Senior to all of our ponies and have added in Five Star Metazone for when they are in heavy competition work. Thank you NAF.
“I have been using NAF Five Star Superflex Senior for a number of years now. My horse Bert is an Irish hunter who has struggled with his hind leg action. Since using Superflex Senior, we hardly notice it now and it is clearly supporting the rest of his joints whilst Bert’s in such hard work! Bert is a very fussy horse but he takes no notice of it in his feed. I have mentioned this product to a few of my friends for different reasons and they have all had positive results with their horses.”
"I have fed NAF Five Star Superflex Senior for a few years to my older Friesian and found it made a difference at her age of 21. I also feed it to my younger horse as she is in medium-hard work and have found it helps massively. As our routine includes a lot of roadwork, it helps maintain joint health and flexibility. I am very happy with this product."
“Our event horse Champagne Please (Georgie to her friends) has been on Five Star Superflex Senior since the end of last season and the results have been remarkable. Even though she is only nine, having had some physio treatment at the end of last season we decided she needed a bit more support for her joints and wellbeing. We contacted NAF to look at the difference between Superflex and Superflex Senior and decided to put her on to the Senior version. We have been delighted with this easy to use, palatable supplement that really helps Georgie to reach her full potential. She is moving looser, working better and is maintaining her top line more consistently because of it. Highly recommend”
“Since feeding Monty Five Star Superflex Senior I have seen a huge difference when riding him. Monty is already a big moving warmblood but as he is now 16, it's definitely helped myself and his owner to keep him on top form. I would highly recommend the supplement for any horses that are competition fit or in hard work.”
“I have been using NAF products for over eight years now, ranging from Magic and Oestress to Respirator Boost so I was keen to try Superflex Senior on Lotty, who is 27. Lotty is still in full work including pole clinics, showing, lessons and BD dressage up to medium level. She had her regular sports massage/physio last week and the therapist was amazed at how well she is moving.”
“Winston is a 19 year old Dutch warmblood with a real personality. I have noticed a remarkable improvement since feeding NAF Five Star Superflex Senior. I’ve noticed a real difference in our training sessions, it’s a product I will continue to use in the future.”
“Balli, my 18 year old Irish Sports Horse has been on NAF Five Star Superflex Senior for a short amount of time but I can already notice the benefits. She has a spring in her step and feels supple and free in her movement. We compete regularly in unaffiliated and E-Riders dressage which we thoroughly enjoy.”
“Since we brought Trooper from the Household Cavalry he has tried lots of new adventures! He loves hacking and fun rides and jumps for fun! Trooper lives on Five Star Superflex Senior, he is a big horse and we have been thrilled with his soundness which we would like to thank Superflex Senior for! We cannot wait for more adventures!”
“I started my 24 year old Irish Sports Horse on NAF Superflex Senior after winning it in the veteran E-Riders competition. He is looking fabulous on it, despite issues with his hocks his hind leg action has notably changed. Thank you NAF!”
“Our Veteran Odysseus loves NAF Superflex Senior. It helps keep him supple and he has gone on to win again since we started adding it to his feed.”
My boys Eddie and Fred’s favourite supplement is NAF Five Star Superflex Senior. It keeps Eddie going fabulously and is fantastic for supporting his joints and all round athleticism! It works wonders on little Fred who is 25 and still pony clubbing.
Balli is nearly 19 and I believe it is important to support her as much as I possibly can. Luckily, I am able to do just that with the help of Superflex Senior. Balli has been on Superflex Senior since January and I feel it to be very beneficial to her general comfort and way of going. Our tack room is stocked out with a wide range of NAF products as they are made with high quality ingredients and they work!
Talgoed Playboyg (Woody) owned by Jude Allen. Woody was diagnosed with Cushings two years ago and he became very uncomfortable as he couldn't shed his coat properly, Jude decided to start using Teatree Oil as it is well known for having soothing properties. Says Jude, "Since using Teatree Oil Shampoo it has stopped Woody scratching his coat and he is a much happier horse."
"My favourite NAF product is the Tea Tree & Mint Shampoo. It is fabulous at keeping Arya clean and getting rid of the grass stains. It also smells lovely and even 3 days after using the shampoo the scent is still strong."
"I have owned this beautiful gelding Llanina Meriadoc since July 2002. We climbed up through the dressage levels with scores of up to 73% and he now retired, but is looking fabulous thanks to NAF! Together with good feed; Superflex Senior, Respirator Boost and the Veteran Supplement help him to stay looking wonderful at the age of 30."
"Dear NAF Equine I want to let you know how fabulous the VitaFerrin product is. My daughter Harriet has just returned from being part of a very successful South West team at the U18 J1 team at Frickley Park The difference in her mare was incredible and we will certainly be using it before Bicton CIC 1 in a couple of weeks' time. She had containable energy and everyone commented on the difference in her right from the dressage to the SJ phase. It was a 3 day event and she coped extremely well despite a 8 hour journey from Cornwall! Fiona Mitchell
"After a vet diagnosis ( from blood tests) of anaemia and low white blood cell count my local horse store ( Freshfields) recommended vitaFerrin! Two weeks later and blood results are completely normal - vet was amazed and is recommending to others! Dusty looks so much more healthy!! Thank you”
Des is like a different horse now after being fed vitaFerrin for the last few months. We entered an ODE at the weekend and he was full of energy until the end with his ears forward looking happy all day. He looks amazing too! Thank you NAF for your advice and guidance, it really has made a difference.
Warming Wash - I think I love this as much as he does! It smells warm if there is such a thing! Perfect for the cold winter nights when they just need a rinse. Thanks Harry!
"I love NAF products. At the moment I am using your Cooling Wash, Warming Wash, Electro Salts, GastriAid, Tack Cleaner and Hoof Moist! NAF Cleanse and Condition and Soft Soap is keeping my tack looking it’s very best!"
