UltraCruz® Equine Advanced Joint Supplement for Horses

UltraCruz® Equine Advanced Joint Supplement for Horses a horse joint supplement that provides key ingredients in a balanced formula designed to support healthy joints and connective tissue in horses.

Our specially formulated equine joint supplement provides the following key active ingredients:

  • Chondroitin Sulfate and Glucosamine work together to support new and existing cartilage.
  • Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a component of synovial fluid in the joint capsule and surrounding supportive tissues, and helps to lubricate the joint by increasing the synovial fluids viscosity.
  • MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) is a source of sulfur that has been shown to provide building blocks for cartilage.
  • Other ingredients, including Boswellia and Cetyl Myristoleate may help support a healthy inflammatory response and may help relieve occasional stiffness in joints.

UltraCruz® Equine Advanced Joint Supplement for Horses is formulated as a soy-free supplement that is specifically designed for horses that have shown signs of soy sensitivity in the past. This equine joint supplement is also ideal for horses that prefer a soy-free or reduced-soy diet.

I really like the UltraCruz Advanced Joint Supplement a lot. Our horses eat it well and it is easy to feed because of being pelleted. Every single one of our 3yo and derby aged horses are on it and we have seen some pretty awesome results. Joint health is always top of mind when taking care of performance horses and we trust Santa Cruz Animal health when it comes to taking care of our horses.

Shawn Flarida, NRHA 6 Million Dollar Rider & 6-time NRHA Futurity Champion


We started using the UltraCruz Equine Advanced Joint Supplement about a month ago and are very happy with the results. We love that it contains all the ingredients we look for in a joint supplement, Glucosamine, MSM, Chondroitin Sulfate and Hyaluronic Acid. Like many other Ultra Cruz products this comes in a pellet, I can feed the supplements by themselves or mix with grain and I know that our horses are eating every last bite. We get great peace of mind knowing that we are reducing waste and our horses are getting all the benefits they need from their supplements.

John Mitchell, NCHA 4 Million Dollar Rider & US and Australia NCHA Hall of Fame Rider


I'm so happy to find a supplement that promotes healthy joints in my young horses. It is crucial that my horses are comfortable so they can perform at peak performance, I believe that keeping their joints in optimum shape helps achieve this goal. Thanks UltraCruz Equine Advanced Joint!

Shawn Hays, 2-time Reserve World’s Greatest Horseman & 4-time AQHA World Champion


In order for my reining horses to compete their best they need to be feeling their best, and this is a staple supplement I turn to in my barn. It contains all the essentials I look for in a joint supplement, all in one product! I have seen awesome results with my derby or older aged horses to help keep them feeling great, and have even started my three year olds on it as well. I love how versatile this product can be for any aged horse to replenish essential vitamins and minerals for proper joint function and avoiding connective tissue stiffness. Love that it's soy free and all of my horses enjoy the pelleted formula mixed in with their grain.

Matt Palmer,
5-time NRHA World Champion & 2-time FEI Gold Medalist


The Ultra Cruz Equine Advanced Joint supplement is just one of the many Ultra Cruz products that we feed our reining horses. It has been very beneficial in keeping our older show horses feeling at their best, and the pelleted form means that they actually eat it all and leave nothing at the bottom of the feeder. I'm impressed at the research done with the product, in particular removing soy to assist horses that may have a reaction.

Do you have a joint supplement without the selenium similar to the Advanced joint supplement pellets? Too many supplements are including selenium and the combined levels can easily exceed the recommended amount.

Asked by: DLW1
Hello! Our UltraCruz Equine Joint Care supplement does not have selenium. You can read more about that product here: https://www.scahealth.com/p/ultracruz-equine-joint-care-hyaluronic-acid-chondroitin

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Noticable Improvment!!! I have an older mare that I still use on the ranch for routine taskes like gathering cattle and checking pastures. She has been sound but latley i have noticed that she acting stiff and taking a little longer to get warmed up than usual. She was a cutting show horse in her younger years so i figured i would look into some joint support for her. I had been to the Weatherford store not long ago and was given some sample packets and decided that was as good of a place to start as any. She loved it! She has been moving a bit smoother and seems to like the taste of them. Seems to me i won't be looking any farther! Thank You Ulta Cruz!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Aged Gelding with poor appetite LOVES This With our last order you folks sent us Ultra Cruz Advanced Joint Care Supplement and when we looked at it we kinda smiled and said Oh Sure Blue won't eat this he is so picky! Seriously this is an old ranch horse that spent most of his life on Powder River and pasture fed, he's now in Florida and we really struggle with his diet selections; adding Anything to his normal ration is a sure way to get him to miss that meal! But we love your products and said what the heck lets try it and HE LIKES IT ... we were astonished! So we have ordered a supply and are convinced he moves a little easier on those old joints. Many Many Thanks for your great service and Great products!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Almost perfect product ! I was so excited to find a soy free product , especially in pellet form. The ingredients are exceptional and my mares joints have stopped "clicking". My one disappointment is that these extraordinary ingredients are degraded by adding molasses. It's like fixing your kids a healthy meal and covering it in chocolate sauce ! That's why the 4 stars. I'll continue using with the hope that at some point the molasses will be removed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best product by far! I bought this for my mare who had been out of shape for awhile. It did wonders for her while getting her back on track. She loves it! Will definitely buy more!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome Sample I recently tried the free sample of the advanced joint supplement for my horse. I was surprised to find that he is absolutely in love with these pellets! He eats them right up every single time it they are in front of him. The price for the 36-day supply is not too bad at all, although, I much prefer the $270 price on the 90-day supply. The ingredients are high quality and it comes in a great, resealable bag.
