Glucosamine - Feed Ingredient
Glucosamine is an amino sugar that occurs naturally in the cartilage of joints and is commonly used in equine nutrition as a dietary supplement to support joint health. It serves as a building block for glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and proteoglycans, which are key structural components of cartilage and synovial fluid.
In horse feeds and supplements, glucosamine is typically provided in the form of glucosamine hydrochloride or glucosamine sulfate. It is frequently included in formulations intended for performance horses, aging horses, or those with high joint loading. However, the efficacy of glucosamine remains a topic of debate due to its relatively low oral bioavailability in horses, and scientific evidence supporting its effectiveness is inconsistent.
The following equine feeds, supplements and products contain Glucosamine as an ingredient.
