Feeding MSM?

[floradora09]

I was just wondering whether I should feed pure MSM to my 15 yrs TB, he hasn't got any windgalls, but recently his hind legs have filled a little. May be the heat? Or the hard ground (we're on rock solid clay!)... Ordered my first tub of cortaflex to help prevent joint problems, but wondered if I should put him on MSM for the summer, as it says it helps the connective tissues? Thoughts please! xxx

I feed NAF MSM due to my mare having had a tendon injury, its for tendons, ligaments and soft tissue surrounding the joint. She has 2 scoops per day and will always stay on it.

I feed my boy glucosamine with added MSM in. Glucosamine to help his joints and the MSM to help his tendons, ligaments and soft tissues. He's just turned 18 and has had a showjumping life so I find the combination of the 2 works quite well for him

Thanks, might give it a try over the summer with the hard ground. Do you find it effective? xxx

I would have thought that cortaflex as well as MSM might be overkill?
