MaxaFlex is an equine joint supplement which combines the soothing power of Green Lipped Mussel with key ingredients to offer short and long term support for joint health in horses and ponies.
The key active ingredient, a patented Green Lipped Mussel extract called SuPerna™, contains high levels of Omega-3 ETA fatty acids which are known for their natural soothing properties. Green Lipped Mussel works quickly to soothe stiff joints while Glucosamine, MSM and HA help with the long term maintenance of connective tissue.
With added Glucosamine, MSM and HA, MaxaFlex contains all the essential ingredients needed to maintain healthy, supple and flexible joints. MaxaFlex is used by professional riders competing at all levels.
MaxaFlex is fast acting, with results often visible in as little as 7-10 days. MaxaFlex also has an Alfalfa base which makes it palatable to taste for horses. MaxaFlex is veterinary approved.
1 level scoop (30g) daily added to feed.
Green Lipped Mussel Extract, SuPerna™ is the powdered extract of the New Zealand Green Lipped Mussel (GLM) and is naturally rich in Omega 3, 6 and 9 (Omega 3 fatty acids that have been proven effective in maintaining joint health.)
The Omega-3s in SuPerna™ include EPAs, DHAs and unique ETAs (eicosatetraenoic acids) which are known for their potent soothing properties, plus naturally occurring Chondroitin Sulphate.

Glucosamine is a precurser to glycosamnioglycans, which are a major component of joint cartilage. Glucosamine may help to support the body’s lubricants, shock absorbers and structural elements, helping to maintain healthy joints.
MSM is organic sulfur, which is widely utilized by the body in the formation of connective tissue.
HA or Hyaluronic Acid is present in every tissue of the body and is seen most in the synovial fluid, which surrounds the joints. This fluid is needed to serve as a lubricant, shock absorber and also carrying nutrients to help protect the joints. The synovial fluid is also important in the maintenance of cartilage again supporting the bones.
Manganese is used as a basis for receiving all the essential minerals for the formation of connective tissue (such as cartilage). Manganese also aids in keeping bones strong.
Alfalfa is naturally high in protein, calcium, plus other minerals, vitamin A, vitamins in the B group, vitamin C, vitamin D, vitamin E, and vitamin K.

My top horse Malin Head Clover is fed on MaxaFlex. The flex as well is a great product I took him off it mid season when he had a week off after Tattersalls and I could really see a difference in just the way he walked out of his stable!!

My horse, Bobby, has been on numerous vitamin supplements and joint supplements for years, which has not only made him a fussy eater but also made feed making a painful chore! MaxaFlex has been brilliant! With one scoop not only does he receive all his necessary vitamins but also his joint care, which has left him looking healthy and his stiffness has been at an all time low! I now can make my feeds in half the time…..thank you Maxavita!

I emailed a couple of months ago, but just wanted to say for everyone to see how fantastic Maxaflex is. Teq had been on every joint supplement in the book, but Maxaflex gave her a new lease of life and this year she was galloping around the paddock like a two year old again.

I have used MaxaFlex for several years now to a variety of horses, but always with very good results. I currently feed it to a dressage horse training at Grand Prix, an ex-racehorse being retrained towards eventing, as well as a veteran polo pony. All three horses are in excellent condition thanks to MaxaFlex, and even the fussiest of horses are happy to eat this product. I highly recommend this product to anyone who would like to prevent any joint problems for their horse, or horses that already show signs of wear and tear. 5 star review from me!

We tried Maxaflex upon recommendation from the chiropractor that we used for our 15.2 cob cross suggested we find a supplement with green lipped muscle in it. Atla was intermittently lame in a hind leg & the vet couldn’t find anything obviously wrong when he was put through a series of testing. He has been on Maxaflex for about 18 months now & fingers crossed, remains sound and happy.

I have been using MaxaVita with my eventer for the last year. Joints all doing fine, gives me a good long-term peace of mind and no issues with him refusing his feed despite being a fussy eater.

I have been feeding this product now for over a year and truly believe it has made a difference to my old chap. He’s an extremely fussy feeder and eats all of his feed with this in! Would highly recommend.

I have been using maxaflex on my horses for the past two years. It has worked wonders on all of them, especially my older eventers with more mileage. Highly recommend this product !
