What is liquid for dogs and cats?
ArthriAid liquid for dogs and cats helps improve joint stiffness & problems Why does a Dog or Cat need Arthri Aid? - As pets get older the ‘wear & tear’ on their joints may cause stiffness and lameness problems.
- Certain breeds of dogs are particularly prone to joint problems (e.g. Labradors, Dalmatians)
- These dogs need extra ‘joint nutrients’ to help rebuild and help their joints.
How does ArthriAid Work? - Glucosamine, an amino sugar, is the starting point for the production of new cartilage and is fundamental to maintaining joint function.
- Chondroitin is a major component of cartilage, maintaining the spongy texture. This is essential to absorb shock and nourish and lubricate the joints.
- MSM is a naturally occurring sulphur compound which helps soothe knocks and bumps, returning normal joint mobility.
- Manganese acts as a co-factor in the synthesis of collagen and Glucosaminoglycans.
- Vitamin C is a powerful anti-oxidant that acts as a free radical scavenger therefore protecting cartilage breakdown.
