Er zijn nogal wat wetenschappelijke studies over standaard Chondroitin sulfaat en de opneembaarheid hiervan bij paarden.
In sommige gevallen wordt zelfs gesproken over nihil opname. Wellicht hebben jullie hier wat aan.

Vooraanstaand orthopedisch chirurg Ian Wright van De Paardenkliniek "New Market" in de UK heeft nogal wat studie er over gedaan.
Conclusie: Quote:"In my opinion, therefor, Chrondroitin Sulphate is not an appropriate oral supplement for Horses with joint disease and I suspect that over the next few years it will fall into disuse in that role"
In the Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine (Michael T. Murray, N.D. & Joseph E. Pizzorno, N.D.)
Quote: "While the absorption rate of Glucosamine Sulfate is 90 to 98%, the absorption of intact Chondroitin Sulfate is estimated to be anywhere from 0 to 13 %. The difference in absorption is large due to the difference in size. Chondroitin Sulfate molecules are at least 50 to 300 times larger than Glucosamine Sulfate molecules and are too large to pass through the normal intact intestinal barrier.
