Joint Health Update:

Is your horse losing the “spring” in his step? Many horses, especially performance and older horses, seem to decrease their performance level over time. Often, this can be due to joint health issues. Studies have shown that many of these types of horses benefit greatly from glucosamine and chondritin supplements. Glucosamine and chondritin helps the joint to produce more fluid for better lubrication, the horse will move better, which will lengthen the “working years” of the horse. There are many types of glucosamine and chondritin supplements available, however, not all of them will work the same way. The supplement needs to be formulated to be bio-available to the horse so that your horse is able to absorb and use the supplement as intended. If it is not properly formulated, you could be wasting your money on a product that will not work. The glucosamine and chondritin supplement that we carry and highly recommend is called “Cosequin”.
