Feed Additives Finish Line Fluid Action HA

FLUID ACTION HA improves joint function by both lubricating and cushioning the joints. The added Sodium Hyaluronate, or Hyaluronic Acid, works to increase the viscosity (thickness) of the synovial fluid creating a better cushion within the joint and helping to maintain structural integrity. FLUID ACTION HA contains GUARANTEED PURE phamacutical grade ingredients which make them very easily and completely absorbed. The PURE Gucosamine, HA, MSM, Vitamin C, and Yucca all work together synergistically to produce sensational results!FLUID ACTION HA is fantastic for horses with joint wear and tear as well as to protect the long term joint ingregrity of hard working horses.FLUID ACTION HA contains no pain relievers or blockers, and for that reason we do not promise near instant results. It takes a little time to improve joint integrity so our loading period is 8-10 days, in which often dramatic results will be seen. Some other products contain sometimes hidden ingredients for temporary pain relief that do not address the true cause of the problem. Usually these products promise results in as little as 3-5 days. FLUID ACTION HA works on the cause of the joint problem and not just the symptoms.An interesting point on the value of Fluid Action HA is that in the USA, in the vast majority of cases, it is more expensive than other American liquid joint supplements, however, in New Zealand it is significantly cheaper!WHY DOESN'T FLUID ACTION CONTAIN CHONDROITIN SULFATE?There are two types of chondroitin. Chondroitin sulphate which is pure chondroitin and hugely expensive, and bovine derived chondroitin (yes..from cows!) which is only approximately 10% absorbable. If you see a product containing 'animal by products' or' animal proteins' then this is the likely source of chondroitin.The latest research also shows that chondroitin sulfate is too large a molecule to be absorbed effectively. With molecular weights up to 30 thousand, chondroitin molecules are as much as 300 times larger than glucosamine. If any chondroitin does get absorbed into the intestinal tract, it is now considered by many researchers to be too large to migrate into the chondrocyte cell, which is where cartilage generation takes place. Since both chondroitin and glucosamine are expensive ingredients, FINISH LINEdecided to concentrate on glucosamine, which is 99% absorbable in PURE form. The FINISH LINE goal is to produce a product that is effective and affordable.HA, which is an even larger molecule, is broken down by enzymes in the gut so enabling it to be effectively absorbed.Because vitamins are sensitive to heat, we ship direct to avoid the temperatures in Asian shipping routes and therefore potentially losing potency due to heat stress.All natural ingredients. Will not test positive.
