My picky eater loves the taste.
Chief has been using Flex-Max for two years now. He is an 17 year old OTTB, with an old suspensory ligament injury. We just competed in a dressage show and received two blue ribbons. I am convinced that Flex-Max helps my guy feel and perform his best.

works great
This is a great product, I have an older horse now in his twenties and this keeps him jumping and I really makes a difference. I have used a lot of other joint supplements and I think that this has worked the best. The pellets are great because they are eaten right up. Overall I highly recommend this product.

works well for my 19 year old TWH
I had my horse on other joint products this Absorbine flex +Max worked the best for him. He is less stiff in the morning when he comes out of his stall and he is moving with greater mobility! Great Product

Lots for a relatively low price
I chose this as a "broad spectrum" supplement for a 15 year old mare. She likes it, gobbles it right up in her grain, and I think she starts out more easily and warms up faster since putting her on it 4 months ago.

Great product and my picky Mare likes it !
Really great product for my 16 yr old Hanoverian mare. She is picky and eats this right up. I can tell and also my Farrier can tell when I started her on this months ago, that she easier to work on her feet, and her right back hock is not nearly as sore
as it was previously.. she moves like she is 6 years old!

Great supplement, and great price!
This has been working well for my mare. Of the top ingredients that my vet wanted her to have in a supplement, in high amounts, this hits the nail on the head without breaking the bank. Other comparable supplements are way way way more expensive for not much difference in formula! As for taste, my mare will eat almost anything I put in front of her, so it's hard to say about picky eaters. Sometimes after a hard workout I give her extra, and I give it by itself with no grain and she eats it just like grain though.

Good product & my horse likes it. The bucket I got said it should last 60 days and it only lasted 30 though.

My horse does great on this product!
I can tell a big difference in my horse since he has been on this product. With him being a 12 yr old appendix gelding and 18 hands he needs a joint supplement that works.

I like to change my horses joint supplement every 6 months. I knew this was going to be a hard decision after being on the SmartFlex products but I went with the Flex+Max and he is doing very well on it. No allergy issues on it and he loves the taste. Great product to alternate with.

Helps my narvicular horse feel better
It took about 6 weeks on this before I noticed a difference in my horse's willingness to go back into the trails. He often refused due to joint pain and pain related to his disease. He is much better now.

works great for my horse
I am feeding Flex max to a 10 year old Standardbred gelding, a retired racehorse. He has ringbone and arthritis. He frequently walks "sore" but wouldn't classify him as "lame". He is strictly a pasture horse, never worked anymore. Winter cold is terrible for him. Usually I just fed him this supplement in the colder months, but this year he is sore through spring and summer. Started him on it two weeks ago, and he is now showing signs of no stiffness and pain.I have used it many times for him in the past but took him off in summer. I plan to keep him on it year round. Wish it was cheaper to purchase, but it really works so I will continue to get it for him. Good product ingrediants cost more, plain and simple. I tried other brands from the big box farm stores, none of them made a difference at all, as FlexMax has much higher amounts of t he ingredients it needs to be effective. Smartpak is the cheapest place to get it, and the free shipping helps too. It is always on my doorstep in 2 or 3 days from when I order. Very, very, happy with this product's
results. Love SmartPak as well.

I'm giving this to a 14 year old mainly for maintaining his joints. I can't tell if it is making a difference, but I'll probably continue to give it to him.

THE most finicky eater EVER loves this !!!
We just started this product yesterday and I'm only writing this to help others with extremely picky eaters. Our 10 yr old Belgian gelding LOVES IT!!! After trying numerous other products that he refused, we will anxiously await the outcome of this supplement. He has a bum stifle from a pasture injury. I will update his progress.

My gelding isn't as stiff coming out of the stall and warmup doesn't take as long as it did.

really works
Seems like after a week or two my older gelding started using Absorbine Flex + Max, he was able to get up in the morning without being so stiff after an evening race. Really helped him out so I started giving it to my other 2 boys so they could repair joint and cartilage before they got broke down and stiff

Pickiest Horse on the Planet Approved
I literally have the pickiest horse on the planet when it comes to food. This is a horse that will starve himself to death before he eats something he does not like. He refuses grain if it does not have molasses in it, he refuses hay if it is not the right texture, he refuses every supplement I try, even if it is mixed in with a senior feed he does like, he will not eat the supplement or the grain. When I saw this supplement I was wary of trying another, but with the satisfaction guarantee, I gave it a try. I was shocked to see him eat this from the very start. I did not have to start out with hiding just a few pellets in his grain. True to it's word, it is picky eater approved.
Since I have only been feeding it a short while, I can not say quite yet if it has improved his joint issues or not. He has pretty severe arthritis in his hock as the result of a broken and repaired splint bone. He does appear to be running around more, and I have yet to see him canter 3 legged like he has done in the past. Yes, on three legs. I am hoping that this supplement is helping and I will for sure order another container.

Really works!
There is a noticeable improvement in my wonderful 15 yr old Paint gelding. While always happy to go trail riding, he has more "go", definitely more forward and less stiff. He has been playing in the pasture with my younger QH - galloping and bucking! I am very happy with the results. He cleans it up and the SmartPak is a great convenience. Worth the money.

Amazing product!!!
I have bee using this on my 12 year old cob who's joints would pop every step he took. I felt so bad for him after 2 months of being on this he has completely stopped popping. He will not go without it from now on.

most complete formula for cost
Researched joint supplement ingredients some years ago. Flex+Max has almost everything I want at therapeutic levels. I sometimes add MSM because I've been told that 10 g. is necessary to make a difference. There are one or two other combination joint supplements that I might rather use, however, Flex+Max was the most economical. My mare is 19, moderately fit, never worked all that hard, and so far hasn't demonstrated any significant/consistent joint problems. She does have arthritis in one hock/ vet. Has had some chiropractic issues this year. My own orthopedist said that glucosamine and chondroitin supplements might be preventative. With my previous horse, he did feel better on a joint supplement as he aged and began to show discomfort. So, I'm hoping to prevent or at least slow down any more deterioration and control what she does experience from time to time.

Love at first bite!
My two AQHA's are fussy supplement eaters and they loved this at first bite! They clean it all up! No product waste. Therefore, I saw results in two weeks. Joint stiffness gone completely in my mare and more flex to my gelding--ages 11 yrs old and 14 yrs old. I will keep using this in their daily rations. Flex-Max delivers!

Very Pleased
My mare had spinal degeneration and was very uncomfortable in spite of bute, steroids, and generic glucosamine. I started her on the Absorbine Flex + Max to try out a different supplement approach. She responded well and we were ultimately able to stop the steroids. She spent her final year on the Flex + Max. She was also a fussy eater, so finding a supplement she would eat was a big bonus.

Joint comfort
Epic is an 18yr old Oldenburg mare used for dressage. She also is a proven broodmare having 6 foals of which 2 are premiums during inspection. I feel dressage can be hard on a horse because they must work off of their hindquarters. I take glucosamine myself - I am definitely older than 18 - and I believe it helps me. So why not try it for your horse too?
