GERIATRIC GG Nutri-Bites

With Glucosamine, Devil’s Claw & Marshmallow Root

For the golden oldies who hold a special place in our hearts.

GERIATRIC GG Nutri-Bites bring together Glucosamine, Devil’s Claw and Marshmallow Root in a convenient treat created with older horses and ponies in mind. Made in New Zealand, they offer a simple way to add these carefully selected ingredients to your horse’s daily feeding routine.

Whether they’re enjoying retirement or still joining you for adventures, treat your much-loved companion to a little extra attention.

What’s inside?

  • Glucosamine — an added nutritional ingredient.
  • Devil’s Claw (Harpagophytum procumbens) — a botanical ingredient.
  • Marshmallow Root (Althaea officinalis) — a plant-derived ingredient.

No powders to measure or mix—just feed the recommended number of Nutri-Bites alongside your horse’s usual balanced diet.

Size: Large Nutri-Bite
Daily feeding amount: 4 Nutri-Bites per average 500 kg horse.

How long does a bag last?

  • 450 g bag: Approximately 2–3 weeks per horse.
  • 1 kg bag: Approximately 6–7 weeks per horse.

Bag duration varies with individual treat size and feeding amount.

Important: Although these are soft, feed only to horses and ponies able to chew treats comfortably. Seek veterinary advice about suitability if your horse has a medical condition or receives medication.

Competition warning: Contains Devil’s Claw (Harpagophytum procumbens). Do not feed during competition periods. Check the rules of your governing body and event, and seek veterinary advice about an appropriate withdrawal period before competing. This applies to registered and unregistered events where substance rules are enforced.

 

 


One of the most impacted parts of the horse when it comes to old age is the gastrointestinal tract health. These Nutri-Bites contain Marshmallow Root (Althaea Officinalis) which helps relieve inflammation of the respiratory and digestive tract while also being an aid to soothe gastric linings. 

These Nutri-Bites contain a natural herbal supplement known for its anti-inflammatory properties, and used for many centuries in traditional medicine to help relieve pain. Multiple studies have shown that Devil’s Claw (Harpagoside) can help reduce joint inflammation and improve mobility, so it was a no brainer that these Nutri-Bites were formulated with this in mind!

Unlike Bute, Devil’s Claw has fewer potential side effects and is often preferred by horse owners looking for a more natural approach to pain relief - particularly for long-term use. This is perfect for your older horse to keep them more comfortable.

As Osteoarthritis is usually more prominent at an older age after a life of wear and tear, the Glucosamine contained in these Nutri-Bites is the perfect companion to Devils Claw, helping to maintain joints. Glucosamine is converted to GAGS which is the natural chemical. As a horse ages, their natural levels of GAGS are reduced and in turn, the cartilage dries out and becomes hardened. By increasing their glucosamine levels, the cushioning effect will return, helping maintain joint health and ultimately creating a more comfortable horse in the most convenient way that your horse will LOVE you for - Nutri-Bites!

My gorgeous man Bruno is now 25 years old. He deserves the best so when I discovered the Geriatric GG's, I was thrilled that he loved them. He thinks he is getting 4 yummy biccies as a treat. I know they are packed with essential ingredients to help his joints and mobility especially at his age so these are a game changer and now an absolute essential part of his day. It is a bonus they seem to be so tasty!

We’ve been really impressed with the Geriatric GG bites from health horse. They’re easy to feed, highly palatable, and have been a great addition to supporting our older horses’ overall health and condition. It’s reassuring to have a product specifically designed with senior horses in mind, and our old boys absolutely love them. Highly recommend for anyone looking to support their ageing equine partners.
