A complementary feed for horses and ponies, designed to support and maintain healthy joints, as part of a balanced diet.
Key Ingredients
Glucosamine – is one of the key compounds in supporting joint health, and has 3 important roles:
- To stimulate the production of proteoglycans and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), which help to produce the strong, elastic, shock-absorbing properties of the collagen matrix in the cartilage.
- To help reduce the degradation of cartilage.
- It has antioxidant properties and helps support the horse’s own anti-inflammatory processes.
N-Acetyl D Glucosamine – an additional source of glucosamine that is particularly important in supporting the horse’s own anti-inflammatory processes.
Chondroitin Sulphate – is a key compound in maintaining the structure, elasticity and shock-absorbing properties of cartilage, partly through its water-retaining properties.
Boswellia – The Boswellic Acids, in particular, AKBA (Acetyl-11-keto-β-boswellic acid) have been shown to support the horse’s own anti-inflammatory processes, helping to maintain performance levels. Boswellia also provides antioxidants and other important phytochemicals to support joint health and comfort.
MSM – promotes a normal inflammatory response to help reduce ongoing damage. It also provides a bio-available source of sulphur to support and help strengthen the bonds in the structural matrix of the cartilage, and the tendons and ligaments.
Hyaluronic Acid – is vital to maintain the viscosity and elastic shock-absorbing properties of joint fluid, and is increasingly recognized as playing a vital role in joint health.
Vitamin C – plays a key role in the production of collagen, which provides the structural framework for the vital shock-absorbing cartilage.
Manganese, Copper and Zinc Glycinates – are a bioavailable source of key trace mineral which plays a key role in many enzymes systems involved in joint health.
Magnesium Sulphate – provides a source of magnesium to support many enzyme systems involved in supporting the musculoskeletal system.
Black Pepper – provides a source of piperine, which is thought to help the absorption of these key ingredients to support joint health.
Kentucky Joint Super Strength Powder contains optimum levels of these key ingredients to provide essential nutritional support for cartilage repair and to help maintain healthy joint fluid to lubricate and nourish the joint, maintaining the health and vital shock-absorbing properties in hard-working joints.
Kentucky Joint Super Strength Powder will also help support the horse’s own anti-inflammatory processes to help maintain joint and muscle comfort in high-performance horses.
