PetSpec Joint Mobility for Dogs
A nutritional support system to promote the comfort zone in and around
synovial joints
PetSpec Joint Mobility contains an excellent specification of nutrients
to help the development and maintenance of healthy joints. Synovial
joints are stabilised by a complex network of tendons, ligaments and
muscle in and around the joint, and by the joint capsule itself. In
ideal circumstances this enables joints to function smoothly and
comfortably.
However, if any part of this network fails because of injury or
disease, repair may be necessary. In these circumstances additional,
specialised nutritional support to promote elasticity and
shock-absorption within the body may be beneficial for certain dogs.
The types of dogs most likely to benefit are the elderly and those used
for working or competing in agility.
PetSpec Joint Mobility contains a generous combination of natural
sources of Glucosamine (100mg/g), MSM (50mg/g) and Chondroitin
(12.5mg/g)
Glucosamine is a component of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), which are
essential constituents of cartilage and synovial fluid. Hyaluronic Acid
(HA) is a well-know GAG that plays an important role in maintaining the
viscosity of joint fluid. This think fluid acts as a lubricant for
joint surfaces and together with cartilage provides most of the
shock-absorption to minimise the concussive forces travelling up the
limbs. Glucosamine is also an important precursor of Chondroitin, a
constituent cartilage. Ample Glucosamine is produced in healthy joints
but damaged joints produce less.
MSM is a bio-available source of sulphur and helps to maintain optimum
function in connective tissues such as tendons, ligaments and muscles.
It promotes fluid dispersion at injury sites via its role in the
permeability of cell walls. Sulphur is needed for the production of
collagen, which is an important component of cartilage. It is common
for insufficient healthy cartilage to be made when joint function is
compromised.
PetSpec Joint Mobility also contains a blend of
Anti-oxidants.
Vitamins E and C are included to combat excess free radicals around the
joint and to boost the immune system.
