THE MOST COMMON HEALTH PROBLEM IN HORSES
Sooner or later 67% of horses will encounter joint problems and 1/3 of owners have to retire their horses earlier than planned as a result of this. This was demonstrated by an international survey of horse owners in 2018.
Joint problems can even lead to lameness. To strengthen your horse’s tendons and joints and reduce the risk of inflammation, appropriate nutrition is vital in order to keep your horse healthy and in good condition for longer.
CAVALOR : BACKED BY A 7 YEAR RESEARCH PROGRAMME
Cavalor aims to help you look after your horse and join you in taking up the challenge of maintaining the health of its tendons and joints. That is why Cavalor commissioned several studies between 2011 and 2018. We not only focused on the impact of individual nutrients and botanical ingredients on tendons and joints, we also investigated the potential of various combinations between these substances. These results helped us improve the composition of the nutrition and nutritional supplements we offer your horse.
understanding is key
Medical science has come a long way in terms of the treatment of joint problems – including research into surgical and medical tissue strengthening techniques. Stem cell therapy to treat horses suffering from osteoarthritis was also given the green light in Europe in 2019.
Nevertheless, the likelihood of cartilage structurally repairing itself remains small. If the damage is considerable and your horse is getting that bit older the therapeutic options are soon exhausted. Prevention is always better than cure.
It is important to closely monitor your horse’s health, invest in excellent care and appropriate training schedules, and provide tendon and joint support with the right nutrition and supplements.
