Ridecamp: RE: [RC] Will ingredients test in these joint products

Why is it that the first question asked about supplements is
"WILL IT TEST?" when in all reality the first question
should be "ARE THESE SUPPLEMENTS NECESSARY FOR MY HORSE TO
BE IN COMPETITION!"

If they are not necessary, then why use them?

I haven't had time to play in here much lately, but I have a
spare second so
I'll touch on this (supplements have my interest as of late
as a
nutritionist)--MSM has anti-inflammatory properties.  If I
remember an
earlier topic on this correctly, that makes it subject to
the rules banning
such substances.

Also, the FDA is finally getting around to doing some
concentrated testing
on several types of nutritional supplements in humans(about
time,IMO), and
those containing chondroitin and glucosamine are in the
targeted groups.
The results of the studies may have an impact on the use of
such things in
horse products down the line.

lately...doesn't it
know I'm already broke to stand quietly??)
