Equine Senior Core Essentials with Advanced Musculoskeletal Support
Equine Senior Essentials with Advanced Musculoskeletal Support
Equine Senior Essentials with Advanced Musculoskeletal Support is a thoughtfully reformulated, daily foundational blend designed for senior horses who need whole-body support with deeper, built-in musculoskeletal reinforcement.
This advanced formula was created for horses whose needs extend beyond basic senior support — those experiencing age-related stiffness, joint and connective tissue changes, or who remain in light to heavy work well into their senior years.
Rather than layering multiple blends, this formulation integrates systemic senior wellness and structural musculoskeletal support into one cohesive daily protocol.
This blend supports the senior horse by addressing the systems that most influence long-term comfort, mobility, and overall vitality. It provides foundational support for the musculoskeletal system, including bones, joints, cartilage, ligaments, tendons, fascia, and connective tissues, while also helping maintain a healthy inflammatory response that can ease stiffness and age-related discomfort. By supporting circulation and tissue nourishment, the blend promotes oxygen and nutrient delivery to working muscles and aging structures. It also supports digestive and gastrointestinal health for proper nutrient absorption, along with the immune and lymphatic systems to aid in detoxification and systemic balance. Heart and vascular support further contribute to endurance, tissue health, and overall senior resilience, allowing the body to move, repair, and adapt more effectively over time.
For optimal results, this blend pairs beautifully with camelina meal to support healthy omega-3 balance and natural vitamin E intake.
These blends are best use with a forage base pellet or a soy free, non-gmo grain. This blends can be combines with other blends, but sometimes a custom blend is more ideal as to not have redundancy. Contact us or book a consultation for more details.
Feeding doses are based on the average 1000lb horse. Please remember that dosages can vary depending on issues. Contact us with any concerns.
