Joint supplement

[LaurenBay]

Can anyone recomend me a joint supplement please?

She currently has daily turnout for around 10 hours on good grass
Big net of 50/50 hay and haylege at night, Soon to be just hay as haylege has sent her a bit nutty.
Small handful of happy hoof, twice a day
Scoop of garlic in each feed.

She is a good doer, I was looking into Micronised linseed but heard that it puts on weight? (happy to be corrected) She doesn't really need a feed but am only feeding the happy hoof so that I can add a joint supplement in.

She isn't in work at the moment as having a problem with her stifle (hence the need for wanting to feed a supplement) but does go for in hand walks twice a week (reccomended by vet)

Thanks

Thank you Ester, I have just read through the whole thread. I have to say I am even more confused now, then I was to begin with haha

Equimins Flexijoint has done wonders for my boy. He was on Cortaflex HA liquid for years and it was costing me a fortune because it only seemed to work on the full dose. Since swapping to Flexijoint he has gone from strength to strength - much better even than the full dose of Cortaflex and much cheaper

Hi my tb used to be so stiff in his stifle he could barely bend his leg -put him on cortaflex and he was totally sound within ten days, works brilliantly,wouldnt bother buying anything else. (i did try many other makes of supplements and some of them are glucose based and sent him loopy) he was a very forward horse and the cortaflex never made him un-rideable.
