PURE Glucosamine Extra 500g is a basic supplement that is good for joints, cartilage, joint fluid, tendons, ligaments, capsules, and ligaments. For maintaining strong bones and healthy cartilage. With added herbs and building blocks for effortless movement.
As dogs and cats get older, they can suffer from their joints. This can manifest itself in changes in their behavior and mobility. In dogs, for example, you see that they move less smoothly, have difficulty climbing stairs, find it harder to get up from their basket, or are less enthusiastic about walking longer distances. Cats can show this by playing less, jumping less, or spending more time quietly. These signals indicate that the joints could use extra support. By paying timely attention to this, you can improve your pet's quality of life and ensure they feel comfortable and active for longer.
Glucosamine is an important endogenous protein that plays a crucial role in joint health. It occurs naturally in the body, especially in the joints, where it helps maintain smooth and healthy movement. In young animals, glucosamine is produced sufficiently naturally. However, as an animal ages, this production can decrease, which can affect joint health. Since glucosamine is not found in normal food, it is sensible to give it as a supplement to the diet, especially in older animals. This can contribute to supporting their mobility and overall well-being.
With glucosamine as a dietary supplement, you give your animal the extra support it needs to stay active and comfortable, even in old age.
Dosage
1 – 2 times a day (1 scoop contains approximately 4 grams)
Dog > 25 kg 1 scoop
Dog 10-25 kg ¾ scoop
Dog < 10 kg and cat ½ scoop
If it is practically difficult to administer this product multiple times a day, once a day or once every 2 days is sufficient. In that case, give the maximum daily dose. Even then, this product can be used effectively, but the reaction may be slightly delayed. When your animal walks smoothly again, you can reduce the dosage to half of the indicated dosage.
Administration
Can be given with food. Moisten the powder so that it is not blown out of the food bowl.
For flexible joints, exercise deserves extra attention. Regular exercise is very important, such as walking, cycling, and swimming. Extreme exertion should be avoided, as well as abrupt movements and jumping. Overweight also puts extra strain on the joints, ligaments, and tendons. Animals that have difficulty losing weight despite adjustments to their diet and exercise pattern can be supported with Phytonics Gluco balance. Always ensure good quality food.
Duration of treatment
In an acute situation, the duration of treatment is relatively short. This can vary from a few days to 3 weeks. If there is an improvement, continue administering this product for a few more days.
For long-term discomfort, the effect is usually visible after 1 to 3 weeks. If there is an improvement, a maintenance dose can be started. This is usually half of the dosage indicated on the package. When dosing this product, carefully observe the animal's reaction. Initially, a higher dosage may be necessary; this product can be safely given in a double dosage. Gradually reduce the dosage to the lowest possible dosage.
This product can be given continuously.
