According to the American College of Veterinary Surgeons (ACVS), around 20% of dogs older than 1 year suffer from osteoarthritis.

CHRONIC PAIN

 

Research shows that more than 45% of dogs older than seven years exhibit signs of chronic pain (Source: Brown DC, et al. J Am Vet Med Assoc. 2008).

HIP DYSPLASIA

 

Hip dysplasia is a genetically predisposed disorder, often diagnosed in larger breeds.

According to the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA), around 15% of dogs have hip dysplasia.

Ingredients and their impact on dogs health

Glusocamine: 0,42%, Chondroitin sulfate: 0,17% , MSM: 1%

Aditives: Natural antioxidant, Vitamin C 7000 mg, Vitam E 5000 mg

Plant Derivatives
(hemp flour 13.5%)

Hemp flour is made from 100% pressed hemp seeds and contains essential fatty acids such as omega-3 and omega-6, which help reduce inflammation in the joints. It also has anti-inflammatory properties and supports the health of the skin and coat.

Oils and Fats
(salmon oil 18%, hemp oil 2.5%): )

Salmon oil is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which help reduce inflammation, support healthy joints, and alleviate arthritis symptoms. Hemp oil complements with its antioxidant properties, contributing to the overall health of the dog.

Meat and Animal Derivatives
(poultry 7%)

High-quality proteins from poultry are essential for maintaining muscle mass, contributing to the overall strength and stability of the dog.

Fish and Fish Derivatives
(salmon protein 6.5%)

Salmon protein contains omega-3 fatty acids, crucial for joint health, as they help preserve cartilage elasticity.

Mollusk Flour
(green-lipped mussel 1.1%)

Green-lipped mussel is a source of glucosamine glycan (GAG), which acts as a cartilage builder and helps reduce friction between joint surfaces, hyaluronic acid, and minerals that strengthen connective tissue and joints, beneficially affecting joint pain. It influences sufficient joint elasticity, allowing smooth and easy movement.
