The phenomenon of joint degeneration, as well as the loss of elasticity and the rarefaction of tissue irrigation, is natural to a certain extent and accompanies ageing. The tendon and ligament system, like all tissues, suffers from acidosis and is particularly hard hit by sport. In addition, waste products tend to accumulate at junctions, posing a particular danger to joints, and tissues that harden become brittle and permeable.
The rider's weight, landings, stretching... as with all athletes, even at a low level, the structure and its supports (joints, tendons, ligaments, muscles...) must withstand stresses that are not natural. That's why it's so important to take care of these tissues, to promote their resistance and longevity, and prevent collateral damage such as loss of bone density, arthritis, strains, tears, etc.
Correcting the state of acidosis combined with bio-available trace elements, plants with anti-inflammatory properties and support for the production of body fluids will provide the horse with significant comfort.
