No Bute or Alphabute

[UKa]

Which product do you prefer and why? Also thinking about feeding turmeric instead any thoughts?
My mare has a slight un soundness due to old stifle injury creeping up in old age. Want to help her be comfortable in light work

My welsh cob has No Bute occasionally if her hocks are a little stiff. It works really well and she looks much more comfortable.

I use Boswellia (the main active component of Alphabute but a whole lot cheaper!)
Turmeric definately worth a try. Sadly my boy's digestive system can't tolerate it so it's a no go for us.

I had incredible results with it when I put my arthritic mare on it. She had bad knees and was stumbling so much, even in walk I had to stop riding her, but within a week of using Bute X as Alphabute was called then, I was able to go hacking across the fields again including having a good whizz. The only problem was that it smells like the incense burner at a Catholic Mass, and my girl was a right fussy chops, so I literally had to introduce it a pinch at a time.
