Vet Review | While the usual glucosamine/MSM combination products may be an important component of a comprehensive arthritis preventative and treatment program(such as the Flexadin plus product), as these conditions become more advanced over time, it is important to understand that additional supplements and/or prescription medications may be needed in our companion animals. For years, holistic veterinarians have employed collagen/cartilage products as part of this management program, and recently, this outstanding product was developed along these lines, and is backed by years of clinical studies and efficacy. I will often add this product to pets already on Flexadin plus or similar glucosamine/MSM products, especially when conditions are more advanced. The collagen in this product often significantly helps with easing stiffness and promoting mobility and flexibility in a synergistic manner with the glucosamine products. Advantages of this product include a "one size/dose fits all" formulation, as well as no loading dose required. It does require a few weeks to reach maximal effect but I have seen wonderful results with this and similar products of its kind. The chewable formulation also stays fresh much longer in the newer packaging. I give this product an overall rating of a 5. | I have only recently been using this excellent joint supplement, which has a tremendous combination of nutrients that help reduce inflammation and discomfort in inflamed joints when doing normal activity. You have to love the extract of blue green algae joint is one of the key components in providing joint support and stress relief, as well as helping fight free radicals that are involved in so many degenerative and cancer conditions in our pets. This product works so well because of the unique blend of glucosamine, MSM, boron, creatine, and omega 3 fatty acids, in addition to the blue green algae. I will often recommend this product even as a preventative in all senior pets, as it can improve health in so many ways besides joint function. The hypoallergenic formula is wonderful for most pets, but a formulation known as Phycox A is possible for those dogs with allergies. This is one of my favorite new products and I give it an overall ranking of 5 out of 5. | One of my favorite comprehensive joint supplements, synoviG3 has an excellent high concentration of glucosamine, MSM, creatine, and Perna Canaliculus. I have always favored products with perna canaliculus on the ingredient list, as this ingredient has been shown clinically in human trials to be very effective for both osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. With regular use, this product can not only support joint function and flexibility, but also help strengthen joint cartilage as well. The addition of antioxidants, omega 3 fatty acids, not only enhances the efficacy of this product, but also has other health benefits for the heart, brain and kidneys. Another excellent benefit of this product is the availability of it in several formulations to fit the needs of any dog. I have yet seen any side effects when using this product. The only drawback to this product is the somewhat high cost. I give this product an overall ranking of a 4.5 out of 5. |
