I'm trying to source some Green Lipped Muscles to give to my arthritic horse but I can only find ones that contain Bovine Gelatin, and as he's a veggie and dont want to feed him moo cow products! Does anyone know where you can get veggie Green Lipped Muscle from?
 
Pernamax by maxavita don't have beef gelatine because they are not capsules, but pills. The ingredients are here:

I found the only way I could feed these to my horse was to crush them to powder with a hoof pick.

Technically if your horse is a veggie he can't have Green Lipped Mussel, which is seafood. But I'm not that pedantic personally, since I have found this product works.
 
I use pernamax and my horse eats them out of my hand. He didn't like them to start with so we hid them in a pear but now he doesn't seem to mind the taste at all.
 
I feed holland and barrets GLM on my horses surgeons advice. He a specialist and told me too feed 1000mg a day.

Im sure it help as when i ran out she has inflamtion within 48 hours!

I buy the capsules and pull them apart and sprinke it over her feeds and she eats it. I did feed a chepaer one that was a lowe rgrade but it wasnt as good.

I always get severel when its half price and stock up so it only costs around 6 a month. The maxivite stuff was very pricey and on top of her newmarket supplement she needs it got into silly money.
