UltraCruz® Equine Wellness/Joint Performance Supplement for Horses

Ideal Supplement for:

  • Performance horses
  • Horses in regular work
  • Weaned foals
  • Senior horses

The combined wellness/joint supplement offers MSM, hyaluronic acid, and glucosamine to prome heathy bones, joints and ligaments. The antixidants help remove damaging free radicals and support normal bodily fuctions.

Two great supplements combined into one to keep any horse at peak performance. Provided as a palatable pellet that easily mixes into the daily grain ration. UltraCruz® Equine Wellness/Joint Performance Supplement for Horses is used on the San Juan Ranch horses, starting from when they are weaned, throughout development and training, and into their senior years.

WELLNESS: Supplement for complete, overall support of equine health, development and growth.

See UltraCruz® Equine Wellness Performance Supplement for Horses product.

A foundation wellness supplement formulated for total body health, containing essential ingredients to support health on all levels in horses. Comprehensive ingredients include a unique blend of trace minerals, amino acids, powerful antioxidants and vitamins, plus glucosamine sulfate. Supports normal bodily functions, promoting healthy joints, bones, hooves and skin, while also reinforcing healthy immune, digestive and reproductive systems. An excellent source of Vitamins A, D, E and B12, Vitamin C (antioxidant), Biotin, L-Lysine, Copper, Zinc, Cobalt and Manganese, and contains a healthy balance of Omega-3 and Omega-6 Fatty Acids.

JOINT CARE: Formulated with key ingredients work together to help keep equine joints in their best condition for hard working horses with high performance demands or for those requiring supplements for joint care.

See UltraCruz® Equine Joint Supplement for Horses product.

Includes daily dosage of: Glucosamine (8,500 mg); Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) (8,500 mg), Hyaluronic Acid (HA) (500 mg), and Chondroitin Sulfate (CS) (2,000 mg) ideal for tendon, ligament and joint care.

Glucosamine stimulates production of Chondroitin Sulfate which, in turn, leads to synthesis of both Hyaluronic Acid and Proteoglycans, important components that help maintain cartilage and connective tissues.

Hyaluronic Acid is an all-natural, non-toxic substance found in the body. It is a component of synovial fluid in the joint capsule and surrounding supportive tissues, responsible for lubricating the joint by increasing the viscosity of the synovial fluid, which protects against friction and provides cushion for the joints.

MSM is a source of sulfur that helps maintain normal healthy cartilage.

UltraCruz® Equine Wellness/Joint Care is a perfect blend of vitamins, minerals, and joint care. It's made a marked difference in our horses. From maintenance of our older horses to the growth of our babies, we do not have to use any other supplements. This product fits our program to a T -it's simple and very cost effective!

Jake Gorrell,
NRCHA Million Dollar Rider & 2017 NRCHA Snaffle Bit Open Futurity Champion


I use UltraCruz Equine Wellness/Joint knowing that our horses are getting the key supplements they need for health and joints to keep them performing at the highest level possible.

Kelby Phillips, 2018 World’s Greatest Horseman & 2017 NRCHA Snaffle Bit Open Futurity Champion


UltraCruz® Equine Wellness/Joint Care is the perfect supplement for our 14-year-old gelding. Before using this product, he was starting to exhibit signs of joint stiffness and discomfort. The supplements have helped him to move more fluidly and he seems to be much more comfortable. This product has helped improve his performance on barrels as well since it helps provide relief to his joints. We love all of the UltraCruz products and are so happy to be supporting a local business as well.

Rachel


I started using UltraCruz® Equine Wellness/Joint Care after comparing ingredients with the supplements I have been using for years, and finding this had more of the ingredients I want my horses to have. They are all in their 20's, still look and feel great, and I want to give them the best supplements I can find. I love the convenience of the single serving packaging, and my 3 are all eating this right up.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love this stuff! Love this stuff! This is the best product I have found; it keeps my horse feeling great and performing better year round. I have used other products in the past when I first bought my gelding two years ago and the results were not noticeable. Since I have switched to UltraCruz Equine Wellness/ Joint care a year ago I have stuck with it! This product has a lot of the vitamins and nutrients the other products did not have. The results are incredible! He is 10 now and going just as strong as ever. I don't just ride in an arena; we do eventing and ride the trails. I recommend this product all of the time.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Lady is a 29 year old thoroughbred/quarter Lady is a 29 year old thoroughbred/quarter horse. Recently she had been less energetic, been eating less and through the winter months was not able to move around and be her normal self. Once she began the UltraCruz Equine Wellness/Joint Care changes were seen immediately in her demeanor. First of all, this is the pickiest horses, so to find a supplement that she actually enjoys eating and in a pelleted form that she will not pick through was a plus. For a 29 year old horse, she is maintaining her weight well and her coat is slick and shiny. Last week the farrier came for the first time since she has been on the supplement. He was amazed, he repeatedly complimented on how well she was standing and holding her weight as he trimmed and filed her hooves.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Glad I tried this... Decided to switch to this supplement from a different join supplement I've been using on one of my working horses. The other supplement was working well for him but was incredibly expensive and with the economy in a grey area this year, I wanted to be able to provide what my horse needed and also save money in spots where I could. I've had him on this supplement for a little over 30 days now and have not seen any difference in this supplement compared to the prior one I was using that is almost twice the cost of this. Really pleased with the results and that my boy is still feeling good and able to do his job everyday.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I've had my rope horses on Equine Wellness/Joint I've had my rope horses on Equine Wellness/Joint for a few years now and I recommend it to everyone I can. I started my yearling filly on it when we weaned her and she's really blooming. They look great and I haven't had a soundness issue since beginning feeding it. Even in Winter they don't hair up as much and I noticed far fewer foot problems with the mud. Great stuff.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I switched to the UltraCruz Wellness/Joint I switched to the UltraCruz Wellness/Joint Care because my horse was going into training and I wanted to give his joints and digestive health more support.
