Despite having a demanding hobby, horse riders are notorious for looking after their horses’ health and wellbeing, while complaining of aches and pains, and neglecting their own. Joint supplements for horses are one of the most common purchases of horse owners in an effort to maintain their horses’ joint health and keep them feeling free, so it makes sense that riders should be seeking out the best joint supplements for themselves, too.

Joint supplements are developed to deliver synovial nourishment, which provides lubrication to joints and keeps them free from stiffness. They also help to protect cartilage by supporting joint health and repair of connective tissues. In doing this, joint supplements can maintain mobility, flexibility and strength, which will increase your confidence and keep you feeling youthful. They are often taken by those who are seeking to ease joint pain and prevent joint-related issues, such as osteoarthritis.

Your body needs a certain amount of each of these nutrients to function properly and maintain healthy joints – some are produced naturally by the body, while others can be found in the diet. As you age, your body produces less of these nutrients, which opens the door for age-related conditions to develop. Supplements can help to counteract this by providing additional nutrients – and depending on the nutrient can be taken orally (in capsule, tablet, liquid or powder form) or administered topically via a cream. Some supplements are formulated from natural sources, while others are made of synthetic ingredients.

In addition to the ingredients mentioned above, Physio Flex Pro also contains bromelain, which is a powerful anti-inflammatory enzyme derived from pineapple that can help repair and protect joint cartilage; ginger extract, which offers joint protection and reduces inflammation; turmeric extract, which has anti-inflammatory properties; selenium citrate, which decreases inflammation, bolsters cartilage growth and increases synovial fluid production; and bioperine, which is found in black pepper and increases the bioavailability of nutrients so that your body can make the most of it.

This product is also available in equine and canine versions, but the human high-strength supplement is designed specifically to maintain our own joint mobility. It contains no hidden fillers and is formulated to contain optimal quantities of each ingredient to ensure you receive the maximum possible benefits. Ingredients include glucosamine, MSM, chondroitin sulphate, vitamin C and hyaluronic acid.
