I have a 7 yr old mare I would like to have on a good joint supplement .. She's currently on MSM.. But idk that its doing anything . She's a very picky eater .. So a pellet would be awesome , but she'll eat the MSM powder .. So a powder you don't have to feed a ton of I think she'd eat. She's sound , she just has a stiffer back end & I'd love to find something to keep her loose & limber ! Any suggestions on something that really works ?

Animal Element Performance Detox is great for joints, coat, and hooves. It is a powrder but if you wet the feed a little and mix it in they will usually eat it. It has MSM, HA, And glucosamine.

I started feeding GLC 5500 RX this summer and it is the first joint supplement that I really noticed a difference with. My daughters pole horse was sore in her hocks so much so that we could not put hind shoes on and she was rough to ride. It helped her a bunch and her times improved especially in barrels that she normally doesn't like. She was much smoother to ride and happier.

Studies show that oral supplements do not help much. Injectable is the way to go and has been proven to get the product where it needs to go. I have mine on Joint Aid. It's basically Adequan minus the polyglycan. It's working well for me.

I use DAC Optimum Flex Plus for my daughter's horse and have seen good results. It has glucosamin, MSM, Sodium Hyalurnate, and Vitamin C as main ingredients that aids the nourishment of joints, cartilage and connective tissues.

I use Lubrysin and can see a noticeable difference regarding wind puffs when the horses are on it

This!  I don't waste my money on feed thrus. I do either injectable glucosimine or pentosan. 

The only feed thru that has proven results is Cosequin.

I use pentosan, but I also do a double dose of MSM (it's cheap enough)
