Equistro Flexadin 1050g

Description

Joint health is a major concern to many horse owners, particularly for those involved in sport or competition.

Joints are complex structures and like other parts of the body they need looking after. One of the most important constituents of a joint is cartilage. Cartilage tissue surrounds the bone ends to protect the bone and absorb shock from movement. The highly complex structure of cartilage allows opposing ends of a joint to articulate smoothly and painlessly. Cartilage can easily become damaged. This can occur in older animals due to an inability to maintain cartilage function. It can also occur in younger animals that have had excessive strain on the joint or after orthopaedic surgery. Once this damage has occurred, bony changes take place and this will get worse unless cartilage can be rebuilt.

Equistro Flexadin is a complete joint support formula
with a unique combination of 4 ingredients,

• Glucosamine and chondroitin sulphate in combination
  has been demonstrated to be more effective than either
  compound alone - synergistic.
  
  
• Harpagophyton Procumbens (Devils Claw) is a
  perennial herbaceous plant, a natural ingredient,
  unique in its class.
  
  
• Manganese which acts as a cofactor and facilitates
  the actions of glucosamine and chondroitin.
  Through the unique combination of these four
  ingredients, Flexadin supports normal joint function,
  ensuring that your horses joints are properly looked after.

Equistro Flexadin contains high purity glucosamine and high purity low molecular weight chondroitin. Molecular weight and purity are important factors to ensure the effectiveness of these ingredients.

Equistro Flexadin also contains exactly what it says on the label; our manufacturing standards are very high and correspond to the standards practised by the pharmaceutical industry. Incoming raw materials are controlled and released into the manufacturing area; the final product is also controlled at the end of the production process. Unfortunately not all nutraceutical products undergo the same stringent manufacturing processes and label claims do not always match the contents.
