Vitamax with Cubix and Calmax

High fat, cool energy

Builds from the fibre-rich Vitamax and Cubix base with Calmax for calm, slow-release stamina energy.

Legend Cubix Vitamax Calmax

Best Fit

  • Performance horses needing stamina rather than sharpness
  • Sugar-sensitive, starch-intolerant, or tying-up prone horses
  • Rations needing more energy without relying on cereals or grain-heavy feeds

Typical Daily Intake

  • Note: when combining Vitamax and Calmax, every 1 kg of Calmax contains 500 g Vitamax.
  • Example: 2 kg Calmax contains 1 kg Vitamax.
  • Adjust Vitamax intake according to Calmax intake to keep Vitamax intake consistent.
  • This makes it easier to switch between Vitamax resting and Calmax competition without a feed conversion period that could risk digestive upset.
  • Horses per day: 500 g - 1 kg Vitamax, 2 - 4 kg Calmax, and 1 - 3 kg Cubix
  • Ponies per day: 500 g - 1 kg Vitamax, 500 g - 2 kg Calmax, and 500 g - 1 kg Cubix

Use body condition, workload, forage quality, and the horse's temperament to refine the ration. These systems are a planning guide, not a one-size-fits-all prescription.

Vitamax + Calmax interaction

Same micronutrient base, adjustable energy output

Vitamax covers the core vitamin and mineral requirement. Calmax is built on that same nutritional foundation, so raising energy with Calmax does not mean replacing the base ration with a different micronutrient profile.

Calmax contains 50% Vitamax
1 kg Calmax = 500 g Vitamax
2 kg Calmax = 1 kg Vitamax
Vitamins and minerals stay consistent while energy changes

Consistent intake

The vitamin and mineral profile stays stable while energy is increased from fat.

Easier switching

Rest and competition rations can move up or down without introducing a new feed base.

Lower digestive disruption

The base nutrition stays the same, so only the energy level changes and transitions are smoother.

In simple terms

You are not changing the diet. You are just turning the energy up or down.
