Cartivet + MSM 900 g

Black Horse Premium

Supplementary feed for the maintenance of normal joint mobility.

Cartivet + msm has been designed for all horses and ponies, and it is especially suitable for horses whose joints and joint cartilage are subjected to very strenuous activities. It is also suitable for senior horses with reduced joint mobility (stiffness).

Exercise is important for the joints, as it helps maintain the structural and mechanical properties of the joint cartilage. The health of your horse’s joint cartilage is a key factor for the wellbeing of its joints. Cartilage is formed from glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans, the synthesis of which can be disturbed by e.g. excessive strain or age-related stiffness. Glucosamine and chondroitin sulphate are the building blocks of the body’s cartilage tissue. Adding glucosamine to one’s diet can increase the amount of glucan produced by the body. Chondroitin sulphate is believed to have a positive effect on the metabolism of cartilage cells. MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) provides the body with sulphur, which can be found in the structural proteins of the joints and cartilage. Sulphur is also provided by sulphur-rich amino acids (methionine). Collagen is the structural protein of the body’s connective tissue (cartilage and tendons) and skeletal system. Collagen is produced by the body, but its production decreases with age, which can result in the thinning of the body’s cartilage.
