Support mobility, comfort and long-term joint health with the right nutritional approach.
Joint supplements play a crucial role in maintaining the health and mobility of horses.
In this article, we will explore the benefits of joint supplements for horses, highlighting their importance in enhancing performance and ensuring the well-being of these magnificent animals.
Forageplus high strength Joint-Plus is designed to supply your horse with
optimal ratios of scientifically supported joint ingredients — not just minimum inclusion levels.
Joint-Plus supports joint stiffness, comfort and mobility, making it particularly useful for older horses or those in regular work.
Horses are naturally athletic animals, built to move and repair efficiently. However, modern management introduces unnatural strain through work, surfaces and repetitive movement, which can impact joint health over time.
When the body’s natural repair processes are outpaced by daily wear and tear, joint structures can become compromised. Feeding a targeted joint supplement can help support the balance between damage and repair.
Feeding one of our forage-focused balancers alongside Joint-Plus helps address common mineral imbalances, particularly copper and zinc deficiencies, which are essential for tendon, ligament and connective tissue strength.
Many joint supplements rely on minimal inclusion of expensive ingredients, combined with higher levels of cheaper fillers.
In contrast, Forageplus formulations are designed around effective levels of each active ingredient, ensuring meaningful support during both loading phases and long-term maintenance.
Zinc and copper deficiencies are extremely common in forage-based diets. Correcting these, alongside targeted joint support, provides a powerful foundation for long-term soundness, flexibility and resilience.
Joint Plus, combined with one of our balancers, will afford the very best support and help for equine joints on the market.
Feeding one of our balancers, to improve copper and zinc levels, will support strong tendon and ligament health. At the same time, feeding Joint Plus will provide nutritional support to maintain top-quality joint and tendon sheath fluid, support comfort levels, flexibility and strong cartilage so joints remain healthy, sound and flexible.
Who is Joint-Plus suitable for?
- Older horses showing stiffness or reduced mobility
- Performance horses under high physical demand
- Horses recovering from joint strain or injury
- Horses needing ongoing joint maintenance support
Forageplus Joint-Plus contains five active ingredients:
