The product for dogs and cats supporting proper functioning of the articular cartilages and joints. Indicated especially for:

• the elderly animals to support joint mobility, health and regeneration of joint cartilage,
• young animals during intensive growth to optimize joint development and ensure long-term protection of joint cartilage,
• animals with increased physical activity to have a positive effect on excessively loaded joints, tendons and ligaments.

GLUCOSAMINE AND CHONDROITINE  – necessary for the synthesis of extracellular matrix which form the structural basis for articular cartilages. Ensure the proper hydration of articular cartilages, guaranteeing their resilience and elasticity.

HARPAGOPHYTUM PROCUMBENS – shows anti-inflammatory properties, probably due to the inhibition of the activity of enzymes such as cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase.

DRY AVOCADO, SOY EXTRACT – show anabolic, anticatabolic, and anti-in-flammatory effects on chondrocytes; in-crease collagen synthesis; inhibit the 1-beta interleukin induced collagenase; boost the synthesis of aggrecan; inhibit the IL1β-de-pendent activation of extracellular matrix metalloproteineases (MMP)-3, IL-6, IL-8 and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2).

MANGANESE – serves as a building block of enzyme molecules known as glycosyltransferases, necessary for the synthesis of proteoglycans that ensure healthy bones and cartilages.
