What is Dasuquin with MSM for Dogs?

Dasuquin with MSM is a comprehensive joint health supplement for dogs containing proprietary ingredients, which goes above and beyond standard glucosamine/chondroitin sulfate supplements. It has the same ingredients as Dasuquin, but with the addition of MSM, which helps to relieve pain and inflammation.

For:

Dogs

Benefits:

• Supports joint comfort
• Inhibits certain enzymes that breakdown cartilage
• Support cartilage matrix production
• Contains MSM for additional joint health support

How it works:

Dasuquin contains avocado/soybean unsaponifiables (ASU), which have shown to help protect cartilage and improve joint function. The ASU also helps potentiate the activity of Glucosamine and chondroitin. The combination of all three ingredients supports cartilage production and blocks enzymes that break down cartilage in your pet's body. Glucosamine is a natural compound that is found in healthy cartilage in both humans and pets. It helps hydrate healthy joints by increasing the production of molecules that bind and hold water in the cartilage. Healthy cartilage provides cushioning which helps protect a pet's joints while exercising. Further research on the effectiveness of glucosamine is still needed, but many of our customers find it to be very beneficial to their pets. Dasuquin with MSM for Dogs also contains methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), which has been shown to be helpful in relieving pain and inflammation.

Cautions:

None.
