Vet Strength Corta-Vet-Flex Powder provides high levels of key chondroprotective ingredients, as well as support for the horses’ anti-inflammatory processes, soft tissues (tendons and ligaments) and muscles.
Targeted at joints under stress from hard work or competition, as well those older horses with significant wear and tear.
Further information on the ingredients:
- Glucosamine is provided in 2 forms: glucosamine hydrochloride and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, to give a total of 12000mg per 40g daily serve.
Glucosamine supports joint health by:
- Stimulating 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 support cartilage health.
- Supporting the horses’ own anti-inflammatory and antioxidant processes.
The benefits of glucosamine hydrochloride (HCl) are supported by research and it provides over 20% more glucosamine on a weight for weight basis when compared with glucosamine sulphate.
N-acetyl-D-glucosamine provides an additional source of glucosamine that is particularly important in supporting the horse’s own anti-inflammatory processes.
- Boswellia serrata provides powerful plant-based support for the horses’ own anti-inflammatory systems, as well as antioxidants and other important phytochemicals to support joint health and comfort. 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 and comfort.
- MSM is a powerful antioxidant that helps support the horses’ own anti-inflammatory processes, as well as a bioavailable source of organic sulphur, which is a vital component of key amino acids and vitamins.Sulphur also has a very important role in collagen synthesis. Collagen is a major component of connective tissue such as ligaments and tendons and cartilage.
MSM is permitted under FEI rules (2024). In August 2022, British Horse Racing released an update to the rules of racing and listed MSM as a threshold substance with a residue limit of 1200 micrograms per litre in urine.
- Chondroitin sulphate is a glycosaminoglycan (GAG) and a key compound in maintaining the structure and shock-absorbing properties of cartilage, partly through its water-retaining properties.
- Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a key glycosaminoglycan (GAG) and helps to maintain the viscosity and elastic shock-absorbing properties of joint fluid, playing a vital role in joint health. HA is provided in the high molecular weight form.
- Collagen, provided from a sustainable and ethical marine source, supports the cartilage as well as the soft tissues.
- Key trace minerals, silicon, copper, zinc and manganese are provided in bioavailable forms and play important roles in key enzymes involved in the production of structural compounds, such as chondroitin, collagen and hyaluronic acid.
- Omega 3 Fatty Acids from linseed, included for palatability as well as support for the horses’ own anti-inflammatory processes.
- Vitamin C is a key antioxidant vitamin, that also plays an important role in collagen production.
- In a highly palatable powdered formulation, easily mixed in feed.
