Dog Premium Hip and Joint Supplement - Powder

In each scoop of powder, you will find…

Methyl Sulphonyl Methane (MSM) is a naturally occurring sulphur compound that can be found in some plants, animals, and humans. MSM is used to support joint health and alleviate joint pain and inflammation. MSM works by reducing inflammation and increasing blood flow to affected areas, which can help reduce pain and stiffness. MSM is also thought to have antioxidant properties, which can help protect cells from damage caused by free radicals. Additionally, MSM may help support healthy skin, hair, and nails, as well as overall immune system function. MSM is used in combination with other joint-supporting ingredients, such as glucosamine and chondroitin, to provide a more comprehensive approach to joint health.

D-Glucosamine is a naturally occurring amino sugar that is used to support joint health. It is a key component of cartilage, which is the connective tissue that cushions joints and helps absorb shock. Glucosamine is believed to help support joint health by providing the building blocks needed for the repair and maintenance of cartilage. It may also help reduce joint pain and inflammation by helping to block certain enzymes that break down cartilage. Glucosamine is used in combination with other joint-supporting ingredients, such as chondroitin sulphate and MSM, to provide a more comprehensive approach to joint health.

Green-lipped mussel (GLM) is a type of mussel native to New Zealand that is commonly used in dog joint supplements because it contains high levels of omega-3 fatty acids and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), which are important for joint health. GLM is believed to help support joint health by reducing inflammation and pain, as well as promoting cartilage repair and regeneration. GLM also contains chondroitin sulphate and other GAGs, which are important components of joint cartilage. A study published in the Journal of Nutrition found that dogs with osteoarthritis who were given a GLM supplement had significant improvements in joint pain and mobility compared to dogs who were not given the supplement.

Chondroitin Sulphate is a naturally occurring substance and is a component of cartilage, which is the connective tissue that cushions joints and helps absorb shock. Chondroitin sulphate is believed to help support joint health by providing the building blocks needed for the repair and maintenance of cartilage. It may also help reduce joint pain and inflammation by blocking certain enzymes that break down cartilage and by reducing the production of inflammatory molecules. When combined with glucosamine and other joint-supporting ingredients, chondroitin sulphate may have a synergistic effect on joint health. Studies have suggested that chondroitin sulphate may be beneficial for dogs with osteoarthritis and other joint-related conditions.

Vitamin C also known as ascorbic acid, is an essential nutrient that is important for a wide range of functions in the body. In dogs, Vitamin C is believed to have antioxidant properties that help support immune function, skin and coat health, and joint health. Vitamin C is also a co-factor in the production of collagen, which is a protein that is essential for the maintenance of healthy joint cartilage, skin, and other connective tissues. Collagen production tends to decrease with age, which can lead to joint deterioration and other health problems. While dogs can produce their own Vitamin C, supplementation may be beneficial in certain situations, such as during times of stress or illness, or for dogs with joint issues or other health problems.

Curcumin is a natural compound that is found in turmeric, known for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and health benefits. In dogs, curcumin is believed to have anti-inflammatory effects that help reduce pain and inflammation associated with conditions such as arthritis and other joint-related problems.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a type of yeast. Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been shown to help support immune function in dogs, which can be especially important for dogs with weakened immune systems or those who are recovering from illness or injury. It also has digestive benefits for dogs, including promoting the growth of beneficial gut bacteria and improving nutrient absorption. Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a rich source of B vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients that are essential for overall health and well-being in dogs.

Manganese is a naturally occurring mineral that is essential for a range of bodily functions. It is an important nutrient for bone development, wound healing, and metabolism, among other things. Manganese is found in many foods, including nuts, whole grains, leafy vegetables, and tea. In dogs, manganese is important for several functions, including the formation of strong bones, the development of healthy connective tissue, and the proper functioning of the nervous system.

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) helps with osteoarthritis by promoting the natural lubrication of the joints and increasing the joint’s shock-absorbing capacity, all of which makes it easier for pets to stay comfortably active

is a naturally occurring molecule that is found in the body's connective tissues, skin, and joints. Hyaluronic acid is an important component of joint fluid and cartilage. It helps to cushion and lubricate the joints, which helps reduce friction and pain associated with joint issues such as osteoarthritis. It helps reduce inflammation and promote tissue repair.

Vitamin E is a fat-soluble nutrient that acts as an antioxidant in the body. Vitamin E helps protect cells from damage caused by free radicals, which are unstable molecules that can damage cells and contribute to aging and disease. It can help in reducing inflammation, improve skin and coat condition, and reduce the risk of skin infections. Vitamin E may helps support the immune system by promoting the production of white blood cells, which help fight off infections and disease.
