Gentle tendon supporter with collagen: ESS Tendo Sensitive

Tendon damage - a diagnosis causing nightmares for horse owners: It not only needs a long recovery period with severely restricted movement and changed routines but also tends to leave the horse less resilient than before the injury.

Veterinary facilities are seeing an increase in patients with damaged or irritated tendons. On the one hand this is due to the more advanced diagnostic methods that allow problems to be identified at an early stage and on the other hand to the breeding development and keeping of modern sport horses: slim limbs with the most spectacular movements possible take their toll in the long term. Overloading, injuries and premature wear and tear of the locomotor system are now the main reason why horses have to withdraw from active sport or have to recover in the long term.

In addition to feeding in acute cases, preventive treatment with important nutrients to keep tendons and ligaments healthy is particularly important.

How does ESS Tendo Sensitive work?

ESS Tendo Sensitive contains high-quality collagen peptides, chondroitin and glucosamine and an amino acid complex .
As a "structural protein", the body's own collagen gives tendons, ligaments, joints and muscles the elasticity and strength they need to allow movement sequences to run flexibly and stabilized. The horse's body can produce collagen itself at a young age - however, the need for it increases sharply in the event of acute damage or with increasing age, so that additional support makes sense.

Sulfur plays a very important role in keeping the locomotor system healthy, which is why many products for tendons and joints use MSM as an additional source of sulfur. Unfortunately long-term feeding of MSM is not suitable for horses that are particularly sensitive or have a sensitive stomach. For this reason we have integrated stomach-friendly sources of sulfur into the product which can also be easily metabolized by sensitive horses.
