Description
Offers effective joint support for the performance horse and is competition safe for horses competing under FEI regulations. This tried and tested formula is popular amongst equestrians from competition horses to racing and other hardworking horses. This joint formula supports joint health and healthy function in all active horses.
Contains important and essential nutritional building blocks to support healthy joint function. With ingredients such as Glucosamine Sulphate, Chondroitin Sulphate, Green lipped mussel and Hyaluronic acid (HA). These ingredients are scientifically proven to nourish cartilage, providing the necessary hydration and GLA's Glycosaminoglycans, substances the body naturally makes to maintain healthy joints. By supplying GLA's, we support the body's natural processes and to ensure sufficient for ongoing joint repair and maintenance. Science shows the body requires more after trauma, which includes the vigour of joint stress, wear and tear, and also as the horse begins to age.
Glucosamine Sulphate and Chondroitin Sulphate work synergistically together to promote a more viscous synovial fluid, the lubricant that provides the frictionless surface between cartilage and bone. By keeping this framework healthy, the cartilage and synovial fluid, this in turn maintains and supports joint health.
We ask a lot of our equine athlete from jumping, galloping to dressage, bending and flexing and everything in-between. Equine joints suffer wear and tear from movement, but with these un- natural mechanical forces the impact on joints is much more. The stresses and strains from poor conformation or working on uneven or hard surfaces together with the extra exertion required on the joints to perform and carry a rider, gradually wears away cartilage, narrowing the joint space to eventually bone on bone results, also known as osteoarthritis. This is a natural process with aging and often seen in older or stiff horses, but now crucial to maintain athletic performance and a sound competition horse. The cartilage between joints is therefore very important as this is what cushions the bone ends and prevents these from touching. It is these structures that must be kept healthy to maintain healthy joints.
The ingredients in this potent formula for horses consists of Green lipped mussel of the highest grade and purity to support joint health and reduce inflammatory reaction within the joint capsule. The added Green lipped mussel together with the additional Chondroitin in this formula gives extra joint nutrition by raising natural Chondroitin and Glucosamine levels and also offering omega 3, a natural anti-inflammatory.
We include ingredients with anti-inflammatory support as this is beneficial to the equine joint by preventing damage by the body's own enzymes which attack cartilage when the area experiences trauma, inflammation, pain or discomfort. It is always important to control inflammation in the equine joint and to also provide more comfort to the horse. The performance horse is an athlete so maintaining joint health is priority in caring for your horse, as a prevention and also to support and provide comfort to joints.
This unique fortified formula, in addition contains Vitamin C in its stabilized ascorbate form, to provide antioxidant properties that help to support joint as well as muscle health. Vitamin C neutralizes free radicals (that cause oxidative damage) and has a role in supporting healthy cartilage and the manufacture of collagen cells. This is further enriched with Chondroitin Sulphate, Sodium Hyaluronate (Hyaluronic acid or HA) and Glucosamine Sulphate supplying your equine all the ingredients for healthy cartilage and synovial fluid. Perfect for the performance horse.
**Hydra-flex HA Active uses an exceptionally high grade of green lipped mussel powder to preserve the unique anti-inflammatory properties. These are often lost in lower grade green lipped mussel powders. We insist only on the highest grade to ensure these valuable properties remain to serve in protecting your horse's joints.
