Hello Bengt,
Noni juice is highly nutritious for horses (and for humans -- I take it myself!). The EE Flex -- I haven't found it on line and it you could send me the ingredients, that would give me a good idea if it is worthwhile. But, any joint supplement should containt glucosamine as well as chondroitin sulfate. MSM is good to add as well, and if you can get one that also contains hyaluronic acid, that would be best of all.
All the best,

Hello Bengt,
Thank you for the link -- that was very helpful. The ingredients are good, so this would definitely be a worthwhile product for joint health as well as omega 3 and vitamin E assistance.
All the best,

Hello Bengt,
The Noni Flex is a good product to use since it combines the benefits of Noni Juice with the benefits of joint supplementation.
All the best,
