MagneChrome

MagneChrome is a pelleted supplement formulated to support normal glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity in horses. It combines key nutrients including magnesium, chromium yeast, turmeric, and CoQ10 to help maintain balanced energy utilization and healthy metabolic function. This formula is especially suited for horses with insulin resistance (IR), PPID (Cushing’s), equine metabolic syndrome (EMS), or those at risk of laminitis. MagneChrome supports blood sugar regulation and metabolic balance as part of a comprehensive low-NSC diet and management program.

MagneChrome is formulated to provide nutritional support for horses with metabolic concerns such as insulin resistance (IR), equine metabolic syndrome (EMS), PPID (Cushing’s), or a history of laminitis. It can also benefit easy keepers, overweight horses, and those with uneven fat deposits or a cresty neck. MagneChrome provides magnesium and chromium to support normal glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity, while turmeric and CoQ10 supply natural antioxidant compounds that help manage oxidative stress and support normal regulation of inflammation. It should be fed alongside a complete vitamin and mineral supplement such as Omneity and used as part of a low-NSC feeding program under veterinary or nutritionist guidance.

MagneChrome provides nutrients that help maintain normal insulin function and glucose utilization. Magnesium and chromium work together to support insulin sensitivity and proper carbohydrate metabolism, while turmeric and CoQ10 act as antioxidants that promote healthy muscle and vascular tissue function. By supporting cellular energy balance and nutrient efficiency, MagneChrome helps horses maintain healthier body condition and metabolic function when used alongside appropriate diet and exercise management.

A cresty neck is often a visible sign of regional fat accumulation and reduced insulin sensitivity. MagneChrome provides magnesium and chromium, two nutrients that support normal glucose uptake and help maintain balanced insulin activity. By promoting healthier carbohydrate metabolism and improving nutrient utilization, MagneChrome can assist in managing the underlying metabolic imbalance that contributes to fat deposits along the crest when used alongside proper diet, exercise, and veterinary monitoring.

Yes. Horses that have previously experienced laminitis often have underlying insulin resistance or metabolic challenges that affect normal circulation and inflammatory balance. MagneChrome provides nutrients that support healthy insulin regulation, oxidative balance, and homeostatic control of inflammation. Its antioxidant ingredients, including turmeric and CoQ10, help maintain normal vascular function and tissue integrity, supporting overall hoof health. MagneChrome should be fed as part of a balanced, low-NSC diet and ongoing veterinary management plan for horses prone to laminitis.

Results vary depending on the horse’s condition, diet, and management. Some horses show improvements in comfort, attitude, or energy within 4 weeks, while visible changes in body composition and topline may take 8-12 weeks of consistent feeding. Long-term use alongside a balanced, low-NSC diet helps support ongoing metabolic balance and normal glucose regulation over time.

MagneChrome does not provide a full vitamin and mineral profile and should not be used as a standalone balancer. It is designed to be used with a vitamin and mineral supplement such as Mad Barn’s Omneity. When paired with Omneity, MagneChrome provides targeted metabolic support in addition to the full spectrum of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids required for daily maintenance.

MagneChrome is designed to complement Omneity, which provides a comprehensive base of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids to meet daily nutrient requirements. While MagneChrome delivers targeted support for glucose metabolism and insulin regulation, it does not supply the full spectrum of essential nutrients required in the diet. Feeding it with Omneity ensures your horse receives complete, balanced nutrition while getting the added metabolic and antioxidant support MagneChrome provides. This pairing is ideal for horses with insulin resistance, PPID, or EMS that need enhanced support beyond a standard ration balancer.

AminoTrace+ and MagneChrome both support horses with metabolic issues, but they are formulated for different purposes. AminoTrace+ is a complete vitamin and mineral supplement that includes elevated levels of magnesium, chromium, and other nutrients to support insulin sensitivity and overall metabolic health. It provides everything your horse needs in one balanced product.

MagneChrome, on the other hand, is designed to be used with Mad Barn’s Omneity. It provides targeted metabolic support for horses that are already receiving a complete vitamin and mineral program but could benefit from additional magnesium, chromium, and antioxidant nutrients such as turmeric and CoQ10. In short, AminoTrace+ is an all-in-one option, while MagneChrome is used to enhance existing feeding programs.

MagneChrome should be fed with Omneity for a complete, balanced nutrition program. It should not be used alongside AminoTrace+, as AminoTrace+ already contains elevated levels of magnesium and chromium, which would duplicate the key nutrients in MagneChrome. Horses currently on AminoTrace+ do not require additional metabolic support from this product.

MagneChrome provides more than just magnesium and chromium; it combines these minerals with turmeric, CoQ10, and other antioxidants to offer broader nutritional support for metabolic health. Each 100 g serving provides 10 grams of magnesium and 12 mg of chromium, along with bioactive compounds that support healthy circulation, antioxidant defense, and normal glucose utilization. Feeding MagneChrome gives your horse a more comprehensive approach to metabolic support than supplementing magnesium or chromium individually.

MagneChrome is formulated as a pelleted supplement to improve palatabilty. The pellets are made with low-NSC oat hulls (the fibrous outer layer of the oat, not the grain itself), which are low in sugar or starch. Most horses accept MagneChrome when it is introduced gradually. For selective eaters, it can be mixed with soaked forage pellets or beet pulp. All Mad Barn products come with a 100% Customer Happiness Guarantee — if your horse won’t eat it, we’ll provide a refund or store credit.

MagneChrome does not contain unnecessary fillers. A small amount of low-NSC oat hulls is used as a pelleting agent to help bind the ingredients and improve texture. Oat hulls are the fibrous outer casing of the oat seed and contain minimal starch or sugar, making them safe for metabolic horses. The inclusion rate is very low and does not add significant calories, ensuring the product remains suitable for insulin-resistant, PPID, and laminitic horses.

MagneChrome has a very low non-structural carbohydrate (NSC) content of 7%. This makes it safe for horses with insulin resistance (IR), equine metabolic syndrome (EMS), PPID (Cushing’s), or laminitis. The small amount of low-NSC oat hulls used as a pelleting agent contributes limited starch or sugar, ensuring the product remains compatible with low-glycemic feeding programs.

MagneChrome is intended for horses with metabolic concerns who are already receiving a complete vitamin and mineral supplement such as Omneity. It should not be used in:

• Pregnant or lactating mares
• Horses receiving other medications, unless directed by a veterinarian
• Horses with bleeding disorders
• Horses with gastric ulceration
• Horses with thyroid disease, unless under veterinary supervision

Always consult your veterinarian before adding MagneChrome if your horse has pre-existing medical conditions or is on other supplements or prescribed drugs.

MagneChrome is not recommended for pregnant or lactating mares, as some of the herbal ingredients in this formula have not been specifically studied for safety in broodmares. For breeding horses that require metabolic support, we recommend using AminoTrace+, which provides complete vitamin and mineral nutrition formulated for safe use in all classes of metabolic horses, including broodmares.

If your horse is currently receiving prescription medications, such as pergolide (Prascend®) or other treatments for metabolic or inflammatory conditions, consult your veterinarian before adding MagneChrome. While this supplement is generally well tolerated, it contains herbal ingredients that may influence nutrient metabolism or interact with certain drugs. Always seek veterinary guidance before combining supplements with medications.
