What To Look For In A Joint Supplement

Perna Mussles can help pet joints

With so many different options for joint supplements, how can you be sure to get the right one for your pet? The key is to look at the ingredients printed on the label.

The following ingredients have been proven to reduce swelling, rebuild cartilage, relieve pain, improve mobility and support overall joint health in pets:

+Glucosamine is one of the building blocks of cartilage. Glucosamine has been proven to improve joint condition in cases of mild to moderate osteoarthritis.

+Chondroitin, another building block of cartilage, is essential for the production of cartilage. Along with glucosamine, it has been proven to help reduce pain, increase joint mobility, and decrease the need for pain killers.

+Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) contains sulfur, a necessary ingredient in the production of collagen, glucosamine, and chondroitin, which are all building blocks of cartilage. Sulfur is also essential in the formation of glutathione, one of the body’s best natural antioxidants. For an affordable option with MSM, try the Cosequin Soft Chews on sale at Allivet starting at $27.99

+Omega-3 Fatty Acids help reduce inflammation, pain, stiffness, and functional impairment. Omega-3 fats also increase bone mineral content to produce healthier, stronger bones.

+Perna Canaliculus are mussels from New Zealand. These green-lipped mussels have been long known for greatly improving the condition of joints, as they contain a powerful combination of glucosamine, glycosaminoglycans, and omega-3.

+Vitamin E is one of the most well-known and researched antioxidants that neutralizes free radicals. Vitamin E is used to improve physical endurance, reduce muscle damage, and increase energy.

+Bosweillia serrate Extract, widely used in India for Ayurvedic medicine, it is one of the most widely researched and recognized herbs. It is know to posses many anti-inflammatory effects and is often used to treat chronic inflammatory illnesses such as osteoarthritis.

+Curcuma Ionga, also known as Turmeric, it is a powerful anti-inflammatory widely used to treat arthritis and other inflammatory conditions as well as a variety of other ailments. Turmeric contains more than two dozen anti-inflammatory compounds, including six different COX-2-inhibitors (the COX-2 enzyme promotes pain, swelling and inflammation; inhibitors selectively block that enzyme).
