"We recommend Five Star Oestress to everyone as it has honestly made such a difference to our moody mare!"
"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!"
"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!"
"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!"

"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."
"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."
"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!"
"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."
"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."
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
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.
"This is me showjumping my little mare Rosie. She is fed on Oestress & GastriAid and is looking and feeling amazing. Thank you NAF!"
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
"Oestress has really helped my mare who has had some particularly strong seasons this year."
"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."
"Lola has been utterly transformed with the help of this game-changing supplement!"
"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."
"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."
"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 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."
Dancer is skewbald but with all the attributes of a chestnut mare! Thankfully NAF Oestress keeps her in check.
Bee is the boss but her grumpiness has gone now when in season thanks to NAF Oestress.
“Oestress has settled Fern’s seasons and temperament down so much, she's a much happier girlie.”
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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!
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.
