What if a symbol of flexibility was the key to its resilience?

  • Reinforced bone and tendon structure: bamboo is naturally rich in organic silicon. A key trace element for the remineralization of supporting tissues.

  • Preserved joint flexibility: silicon is involved in the synthesis of collagen and elastin. It thus helps preserve the elasticity of tendons and the cohesion of cartilage subjected to the repeated stresses of work and age.

  • Long-term foundational action: this is not a painkiller. It's a structural builder, designed to work deeply on the musculoskeletal "framework."

 

Offer your horse one of the richest plant sources of silica:

  • 100% natural bamboo powder, standardized to more than 55% silica
  • Selected from a French laboratory specializing in premium equine nutrition
  • First effects usually visible within 3 to 4 weeks

For which horses?

This bamboo powder is designed for horses that need remineralizing support:

  • Seniors who are losing bone density
  • Horses with tendon or ligament fragility to support the consolidation of damaged fibers and cartilage support
  • Sport horses for foundational support of musculoskeletal resistance
  • Young growing horses to support bone mineralization and connective tissue construction

 

Your horse works. So do its foundations.

But you can act now to ensure they last over time.

What is Bamboo used for in my horse?

Bamboo is a remineralizing plant exceptionally rich in silica (> 55%). It strengthens bones, cartilage, and tendons by promoting calcium fixation and collagen synthesis. It is particularly recommended in cases of stiffness, bone fragility, or intense training.

How does silica work in the horse's body?

Silica is one of the essential components of connective tissues. It directly contributes to skeletal strength, tendon elasticity, and articular cartilage integrity. Without sufficient silicon, these structures progressively weaken—regardless of calcium intake.

Studies

Nielsen BD, Potter GD et al. (1993)
Training distance to failure in young racing Quarter Horses fed sodium zeolite A Journal of Equine Veterinary Science, 13(10), 562–567.

This pioneering study showed that silicon supplementation increased the training distance to injury in racing Quarter Horses. This is one of the first direct pieces of evidence of silicon's role in bone strength in athletic horses.NCBI

Lang et al. (2001)
Study on yearlings supplemented with silicon vs. control group

Research on young horses has shown a reduction in bone resorption markers (carboxy-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen) in silicon-supplemented horses compared to unsupplemented controls. NCBI

Silicon and bone health
Journal of Nutrition, Health & Aging, 11(2), 99–110 — PubMed

This review of 30 years of research establishes significant positive associations between dietary silicon intake and bone mineral density, suggesting a beneficial role in bone and connective tissues.

Orthosilicic acid stimulates collagen type 1 synthesis and osteoblastic differentiation in human osteoblast-like cells in vitro
Bone, 32(2), 127–135

High levels of silicon have been found to be strongly linked to connective tissues and their components—glycoaminoglycans, polysaccharides, and mucopolysaccharides—suggesting a fundamental structural role for this trace element.
