My wife Linda and I are trying out two new feed supplements MSM (Methyl
Sulphonyl Methane) which is an organic Sulphur source and helps to maintain
the skeletal system and helps in the healing of joint injuries, which is
what we have been using it for.

The other supplement we are trying is C.S. (Chondroitin Sulphate) which is
more commonly sold under the brand names Flex Free or Xtra Flex. This is an
essential element found in conective tissue between cartilage, mussle
tissue, and other conective tissue. We have been feeding C.S. to a 14 year
old endurance horse to improve his action which it has done.

We would be very interested to hear from other endurance riders about their
experiences with these products and any other supplements people are using.

Thanks in advance, Ed and Linda Blanchard
