Joints - our aim is to support your horse's healthy joints
Joint health is a particularly important factor for performance and leisure horses alike, because no matter what the horse's vocation, all joints are, to a greater or lesser extent, subject to stress which leads to inevitable wear and tear. Joints have undoubtedly received more scientific study than any other area of horse health. Consequently there is a wealth of information available about the key nutrients known to support joint strength and flexibility. A quality joint supplement will be based on Glucosamine Sulphate, considered to feed cartilage, joint fluid and more recently, evidence has shown it also supports the health of tendons. Glucosamine sulphate works synergistically with MSM to nutritionally support tendons, ligaments and associated soft tissue. While chondroitin sulphate and hyaluronic acid (HA), also included in good joint formulas, offer positive benefits towards healthy joint maintenance.
