JOINT RESTORE

Zeolite – an aluminosilicate with an open tetrahedral structure enabling ion exchange and reversible dehydration. Benefits for equines: Enhanced nutrient absorption, decreased diarrhea, inhibits wood chewing, promotes bone development, enhances coat color.

Glucosamine – Glucosamine is a marine sourced amino sugar. It is an essential building block of cartilage for its formation and development.

Aquamin - A unique, multi-mineral complex rich in calcium, magnesium, and over 70 other trace minerals (e.g., strontium, zinc, selenium). Provides a broad spectrum of essential minerals that contribute to various physiological functions, supporting overall health and vitality.

Leucine – Leucine, a vital amino acid, must be obtained through the diet to meet the body's needs. A key member of the branched-chain amino acid family, alongside Valine and Isoleucine, it plays a crucial role in protein synthesis and muscle metabolism.

Calcium – Assists in metabolism and crucial for muscles. Promotes strong bones and teeth, aiding in blood clotting. Symptoms of deficiency include weak bones, stunted growth, and muscular issues.

Hyaluronic Acid – Hyaluronic Acid is a unique protein found naturally in the horse’s body. Its primary role is to bind water and lubricate movable body parts like joints and muscles. Key benefits include lubricating inflamed joints, boosting joint mobility, reducing joint friction, and easing joint pain during activity.

Magnesium - Beyond just bone health, magnesium is surprisingly vital for your horse's joint comfort and function. It supports healthy muscles around the joints, ensuring they can relax properly and reduce strain on joint structures. Magnesium is also involved in producing key components of cartilage and synovial fluid, the natural cushion and lubricant within the joint. Furthermore, its anti-inflammatory properties can help manage joint discomfort and stiffness. Finally, by supporting healthy nerve function, magnesium contributes to coordinated movement, potentially reducing the risk of joint-related issues. Ensuring adequate magnesium intake is therefore a crucial aspect of maintaining your horse's long-term joint health and mobility.

Turmeric – A Strong Antioxidant, the active constituent in turmeric is known as Curcumin. Curcumin is a really potent antioxidant, which means it's excellent at neutralizing those damaging free radicals that can impact your horse's cells over time – think of it as a defense system against cellular wear and tear.

Beyond just its antioxidant prowess, curcumin has demonstrated a range of therapeutic effects. One key benefit is its ability to modulate inflammation. It appears to do this by influencing histamine levels in the body and potentially even encouraging the adrenal glands to produce more of their own natural cortisone. This can be particularly relevant for managing discomfort and supporting overall well-being.
