Glucosamine for joint health

As dogs age their joint health begins to decline. Glucosamine has been shown to be beneficial to aging dogs by promoting overall joint health. Glucosamine is found naturally occurring in cartilage and synovial fluid. Studies have found that oral supplementation of glucosamine is absorbed within joint tissue and is beneficial in supporting normal regeneration of cartilage, promoting normal joint flexibility and movement and helps support joint comfort.

PetHealth™ OPC Formula combines the benefits of glucosamine with powerful OPCs (oligomeric proanthocyanidins), antioxidants like pine bark extract, grape seed extract, red wine extract, citrus bioflavonoids and bilberry extract to promote joint health and comfort, normal joint flexibility, healthy blood platelet activity, healthy circulation, cardiovascular health and vision health. OPCs are potent antioxidants, nearly 50 times more powerful than vitamin C and 20 times more powerful than vitamin E. Free radicals can wreak havoc on your pet’s health and antioxidants, like those found in PetHealth OPC Formula, are powerful free radical scavengers.

OPCs and glucosamine are very bitter extracts; PetHealth OPC Formula is designed to be more palatable for your pets, especially when sprinkled over their food. Several antioxidants blended together in moderate amounts may be more effective than high levels of one antioxidant. PetHealth OPC Formula combines five powerful antioxidants in moderate amounts with a therapeutic amount of glucosamine. Antioxidants, like those found in PetHealth OPC Formula, help fight the damage caused by free radicals. They can also help support immune responses and support normal vaccine recognition in dogs and cats. Young animals can benefit tremendously from antioxidants. Antioxidants can help maintain optimum health in your animal's gastrointestinal and cardiovascular systems, liver, kidneys, eyes and immune system. Another important role of pet antioxidants is their ability to support immune-cell function for dogs and cats in their senior years.

Dog or cat, young or old, PetHealth OPC Formula is the perfect supplement for optimal health for your pets. Click here for more information on glucosamine. Check out Buzzilions.com for great testimonials on PetHealth OPC Formula.

We began giving our 12 year old golden retriever the Pet OPC about 2 months ago. She began getting around much easier within days of having the OPC added to her food! She gets up and down the stairs easier too! Highly recommend it!

My dog has a torn ACL, due to the cost of surgery, we have decide to just let him rest and give him his OPC for pets once a day. He is not limping as bad as he was before giving the OPC for pets. This is an awsome product. Very easy to give.
