Each 35g serve provides powerful joint support for performance horses, supplying:
- Glucosamine HCl 12,000mg – to support cartilage structure.
- Boswellia 1700mg – to support the horse’s own anti-inflammatory processes.
- N-acetyl Glucosamine 1100mg – to support healthy cartilage.
- MSM 12,000mg – to promote cartilage elasticity and shock absorption.
- Hyaluronic acid 330mg – to support joint fluid health and elasticity.
- Key bio-available trace elements (from chelates) and vitamins – to support vital enzymes in maintaining joint health.

Joint disease, especially wear and tear of the cartilage which covers the articular surfaces of bones within the joint is one of the most common causes of reduced performance and ultimately lameness in performance horses.
In a healthy joint, cartilage is continuously undergoing repair to micro-damage, but as cartilage doesn’t have its own blood supply, it relies on the bone underneath and the synovial or fluid bathing the joint to supply nutrients and key compounds to complete these repairs. As the horse ages, or the daily impact of training and competition increase, the ability of the underlying bone and synovial fluid to provide these nutrients may not be enough to keep up the rate of repair needed, and damage, with the resulting pain, loss of performance and eventually lameness becomes evident.
So it is vital that high-performance horses receive a dietary supply of these key nutrients to maintain the rate of repair, to ensure the cartilage and joint fluid retain their elasticity and shock-absorbing properties to help maintain peak performance.
