Benefits of Equine TRI-ACTA

The benefits of oral glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate have been shown in many different types of animals, as well as in human studies, where joint health has improved.

Glucosamine, Chondroitin and MSM have the following benefits:

• Glucosamine is a fundamental building block necessary for the synthesis of key joint structures including cartilage and joint fluid
• Chondroiton stimulates the production of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), a core component of cartilage
• Both glucosamine and chondroiton inhibit the degradation of proteoglycans, important in ongoing sound joint function
• In horses, the combination of the three has been found to be bioavailable, and is reported to have been safe in alleviating symptoms of degenerative joint disease
• MSM may be important in helping the body form a strong collagen matrix and is purported to help horses move more freely and easily, particularly in cases of soft tissue injury

Joint pain due to an imbalance in normal cartilage production is common. Wear and tear on joint structures cannot be avoided when dealing with an animal the size of the equine athlete. As well, perfect confirmation is not always seen, even in ideal breeding programs. This may render some individuals subject to early joint degeneration and, therefore, pain. TRI-ACTA is an ideal supplement which can be used daily to proactively prevent these conditions or alleviate the pain associated with them.

The addition of TRI-ACTA to post surgical treatment can make the rehabilitation program far more comprehensive. TRI-ACTA will assist in the healing process, strengthening joint structures and improving the chances of a successful recuperation.

Integricare believes that TRI-ACTA has been optimally designed to increase mobility, minimize inflammation and improve joint condition. TRI-ACTA aims to help normalize cartilage metabolism, slow the breakdown of cartilage and potentially allow the cartilage to regenerate.
