Best Suppliement for potential ligament or tendon damage

Cosequin, not cheap. Read up on it, it claims to be the most pure and only scientifically tested one on the market.

Turmeric, has also shown good results in early trials and is about 90% of the cost of Coseqiun :).
 
Thanks JR - (much better thanks BUT loads of my old yard are moving here too! just hope a certain family dont aghhghghghghghghghgh)

My vets are quite unusual - they dont push supplements at you - they will comment on what you suggest but not push anything - they dont even do their own brand like a big practice i used to be at...... and everytime they came out, I was suprisingly recomended a supplement for this, and a supplement for that.....? wonder why?
 
Cortaflex and cosequin are joint supplements, not for tendon damage. (cortaflex is c***) anyway imo!)

MSM will act as an anti inflammatory and be a source of sulphur for repair
 
When I messed up my elbow, dislocated and bust up all the ligaments, I have taken supplements daily since I did it. If I stop taking them for a week I really notice it and the arm starts hurting and stiffens up.
I am taking Boots Glucosamine, Chondroitin and MSM, at maximum strength. MSM for ligament repair, Glucosamine for joint mobility and chondroitin for the ligaments (I think).

I would recommend all 3, my physio says they have definitely made a big difference to my arm's repair.
I know, I'm not a horse but I can say first hand that a supplement containing all 3 DOES work.
 
Thanks for all the answers - just checked out NAF's site and they seam to have two suppliments that may fit the bill

NAF MSM - just pure MSM or Fiver Star Superflex that has Glucosamine, Chondrolin and MSM.... off to the local feed merchants tomorrow - but if anyone has any recomendations still please let me know

I really want to get my little lad back !
 
mother nature will determine the recovery time! some supplements help a little but personnaly i would get some magnetic boots and either box or paddock rest as vet thinks fit! and when returning to work a minimum of 6 to 8 weeks road work! in walk! increasing in time.
