Chondroitin Sulfate - Feed Ingredient

Chondroitin sulfate is a glycosaminoglycan (GAG) commonly included in equine feed and supplements, primarily for joint health support. It is typically sourced from animal cartilage, such as bovine or marine-derived sources. Chondroitin sulfate is often combined with glucosamine in joint formulations.

In equine nutrition, chondroitin sulfate is believed to help retain moisture in cartilage, potentially improving shock absorption and joint lubrication. However, scientific evidence on its effectiveness in horses is mixed, with some studies suggesting benefits while others indicate limited bioavailability and inconsistent results.

The following equine feeds, supplements and products contain Chondroitin Sulfate as an ingredient.
