Hello all-
I have been looking for any recent articles on the efficacy of oral HA. The posts and articles I see seem to be at least one year old. Also, is there any difference in the absorption if its given in the form of a powder vs a liguid or gel?

Hello Sara,
Efficacy for treating what? If it is degenerative joint disease (chronic arthritis) you are interested in see Treatments and Medications for Horses » Anti-inflammatories (NSAID's, Steroids, Arthritis Rx) » Glucosamine, Chondroitin Sulfate, and their use in Arthritis. It covers the oral nutraceuticals including hyaluronate. I see the title is not very clear on this. You should also check out the article on Overview of Arthritis as it covers this subject too. Note that all these articles are updated frequently as new information comes in regularly.
