Product Sku: ekyflex-arthro-450gr
Audevard Ekyflex Arthro evo is a nutritional supplement designed to provide comprehensive support and strengthening for the tendons and ligaments of the horse.The evolution of joint protection.
Ekyflex Arthro is the evolution of joint protection. Concentrated and supplementary ingredients for comprehensive joint support: cartilage, synovial fluid, and subchondral bone. Audevard innovates by offering the first chondroprotective product for horses.
The evolution of joints protection.
-Complete strengthening of joint function (cartilage, synovial fluid, hypochondrium bone).
-Supports the regeneration of articular cartilage.
-Strengthens the cohesion of ligaments.
-Actively participates in the formation of connective tissues.
-Contributes to the production of collagen.
-Regenerates the damaged or worn joint.
-Supports the elasticity of tendons-ligaments.
-Has anti-inflammatory, analgesic and anti-edematous effects on joints.
-Is greately combined with EKYFLEX NODOLOX.
-Bioactive collagen peptides (Peptagen II) actively contribute to enhancing the regeneration of joint cartilage and significantly support the health and strength of the joints.
The advancement of technologies has made it possible to develop a new generation of ingredients with increased purity and bioavailability, allowing for a more concentrated and precise formula that respects the horse’s physiology. Glucosamine, MSM, Peptagen II (a blend of amino acids from non-animal collagen precursors), and ASU nourish the cartilage and prevent its wear, while PAC (proanthocyanidins) targets the subchondral bone.
Joint Health and Function in Athletic Horses
The health and function of joints in athletic horses are crucial for their movement, balance, and overall performance. Given the intense and repetitive stress these horses undergo, their joints are particularly vulnerable to injuries and wear. High protection is essential, and as always, prevention is the best treatment.
Articular cartilage is fundamental to the performance of athletic horses. It is a smooth, elastic tissue that covers the ends of bones within the joints. Its role is to absorb shocks and reduce friction during movement. When cartilage is damaged, friction between the bones increases, causing inflammation and discomfort, which reduces performance and can lead to severe injuries such as arthritis.
The subchondral bone plays a vital role in the proper functioning of a joint, as it serves as the foundation for the articular cartilage. Its health directly impacts:
Support and Shock Absorption: It absorbs and distributes the mechanical loads applied to the joint, protecting the articular cartilage from excessive pressure.
Maintenance of Cartilage Thickness and Elasticity: It supports the nourishment of the articular cartilage.
Regulation of Joint Mechanical Response: The density and structure of the bone affect the joint's flexibility, ensuring smooth and pain-free movement.
Protection Against Degenerative Diseases: It provides protection for the articular cartilage.
