As a result, compounds contained within the cell walls are released into the cell matrix. Some of these substances, such as histamine, give rise to inflammation and associated pain.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tInflammation is a horse’s natural response to injury. Inflammation is characterized by redness, swelling, heat and moderate to intense discomfort. When a joint becomes inflamed, your horse may experience any or all of these symptoms. This can prevent the joint from moving properly, leading to stiffness and loss of function.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tResearchers have found that the diseases of aging in horses such as arthritis, navicular and laminitis, have similar underlying factors: a decrease in cell stability leading to membrane damage and subsequent release of compounds that promote damage, spasm and inflammation.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tThe ingredients in RecoveryEQ work by stabilizing the membranes of the cells, promoting healing of existing damage and helping to prevent further damage.
