RecoverX with Boswellian Acids

The same herbs as above but with Boswellic Acids added. Boswellic Acids are being studied for their ability to cause apoptosis in cancer cells but the reason they are included in RecoverXTM is that they are excellent anti-oxidants and they help to relieve joint pain. The active components in Boswellic acids, deactivate the hormonal triggers for inflammation and pain in osteoarthritis. These acids effectively shrink inflamed tissue by stimulating the growth of cartilage, increase blood supply to inflamed joints, and enhance the repair of local blood vessels damaged by inflammation. Boswellic acids also exhibit anti-inflammatory behavior by inhibiting leukotriene synthesis. Specifically, it inhibits the activity of the enzyme 5-lipoxygenase through a non-redox reaction. Therefore, Boswellic Acids can be useful as pain management with horses suffering from the following:

You can think of EquiKleenTM  as a horse cleaner from the inside out.  Consisting of Alpha Lipoic Acid, Silymarin, Cynarin and DL-Methionine, it works to clean or detoxify a horse's liver and gut and boost their immune system.  I rescued a 14 yr old mare that was starving and so had a blood and chemistry panel done on her to see what we were dealing with.  Her GGT* score was 176 when it should have been between 0 and 36.  That's an elevation of 488% over normal.  She went on EquiKleenTM for a month and was tested 5 weeks after starting the therapy.   This test went to a different lab and they used a different metric but  she scored 38 where the normal range was 5 to 24.  That's an elevation of 158%.  Still higher than normal but certainly going in the right direction and fast.   
Alpha Lipoic Acid: A powerful anti-oxidant that functions in water and fat and which for our purposes increases the formation of glutathione.  Alpha-lipoic acid has been administered by IV along with silymarin to treat people who have eaten the poisonous mushroom Amanita, which causes liver damage.
