TCX Supplements is the culmination of years of research into sports supplements and their impact on equine sports performance. We strive to provide unique, effective, and safe high quality supplements that have measurable impact on your horses wellbeing and performance.
We are incredibly proud to bring TCX Performance to market as our flagship product, but will continue to develop additional products to meet your equine athletes needs, so check back often!
TCX Performance is made in a facility that produces pharmaceutical quality products to our exacting standards. Rest assured that what is on our label matches what is in our products. TCX Performance has been tested extensively and been found to be safe, with no side effects, well tolerated and readily eaten when added to grain. In a small unpublished study 90% of test horses showed a reduction in muscle enzyme counts when compared to a crossover control after 30 days of supplementation with TCX Performance, with no other significant changes in normal blood parameters. 100% of respondents in survey included with the product noted a positive change in top line musculature, a reduction in back sensitivity and 90% noted an improvement in performance.
Dr Steven Smith has 20 years experience working with elite performance horses. Over the years his many thousands of patients have included champion racehorses (Thoroughbred, Standardbred and Quarter Horse), elite dressage horses, and numerous hunter/jumpers, barrel horses, cutters, reiners, western pleasure horses, heavy pull horses and everything in between. In addition to being a well regarded veterinarian he is a lifelong horseman, horse breeder and a fan of all equine sport. Dr Smith has always been passionate about providing quality, evidence based equine supplements and products and he is extremely proud to bring TCX Performance
to horse owners across North America.
Over the last summer a small number of patients from Dr Smith’s practice were selected to participate in a study looking at the efficacy of TCX Performance. 9/10 test subjects showed a reduction in muscle enzyme counts, and 10/10 showed an improvement in back sensitivity and 100% of respondents indicated that their horse readily ate TCX Performance with no issue. 3 patients that had a previous history of tying up were reported to have no further incidence of tying up when on TCX Performance.
