Reverdy Flexy Powder is a nutritional supplement for horse joints.
A preparation based on the three most important chondroprotective substances (chondroitin, glucosamine and MSM) and hyaluronic acid.
Helps relieve discomfort, slow the progression of arthritis and improve joint lubrication and cartilage elasticity.
Chondroitin is a component of proteoglycans that ensure proper hydration of cartilage and bone. It also directly protects cartilage cells from enzymatic reactions and free radicals.
Glucosamine is the precursor of many components of proteoglycans and hyaluronic acid. In cartilage, hyaluronic acid is bound to proteoglycans, forming aggregates that ensure proper hydration of this tissue. In the synovial fluid of joints, hyaluronic acid plays a role as a lubricant and chondroprotective agent.
MSM also possesses chondroprotective properties. It is also a source of organic sulfur, which is essential for the synthesis of collagen, an abundant cartilage protein, giving it hydration, resistance, elasticity, and suppleness.
