Have you ever fed your horse rosehips for joint support?

Just looking at the simple system website and their joint supplement is a mixture of ground micronized linseed and rose hips. Has anyone tried it?

I normally feed a joint supplement containing linseed, glucosamine, msm, chondroitin and HA and find it effective but thought this looked interesting!

yep, i turn the rose hips into a tea in the winter, just soak them overnight in a bit of water and pour them on smells great

My boy loves them fresh from the bush and mixed in with his feed.

They seemed to help give him an all over glow and his feet also benefited. As for joints, I can see how they might help. defo worth a go IMO.

Not personally but the guy i work for is taking Rosehips in tablet form to help with arthritis and someone else recommended me a product they had been recommended and that too was Rosehips mainly. Certainly worth a try from what i've heard

Thanks for your replies. Will try it! (and may start drinking rosehip tea myself )

Yes, I feed fresh rosehips when in season and Feedmark rosehips the rest of the time. I also take Litozin for my arthritis and seen a huge reduction in pain.
