Joint and cartilage function is supported and the production of synovial joint fluid for lubrication is encouraged.&nbsp;</p><p>For hundreds of years the coastal Maoris of New Zealand have eaten Green Lipped Mussels as a major part of their diet. The Maoris would harvest the mussels growing naturally on the seashores and would eat them raw. Even though they saw the mussel as an important part of their diet, they did not realise the benefits they were gaining, until settlers in New Zealand later realised that these Maoris had far superior joint health compared to Westerners. Veterinary surgeons often now promote the addition to the diet of green-lipped mussel as a means of long-term maintenance of joint health. <strong>Why do our dogs need joint supplements?&nbsp;</strong></p><p>Dogs are a species whom we increasingly realise may need additional nutrients to maintain optimum joint and limb health; larger breeds even more so. The increasing use of dogs in sport and leisure activities such as Agility, Flyball, Cannicross, Dog Sledding and Field Sports is another factor that increases long term wear and tear on the joints. How do you know if your dog is a likely candidate for joint supplementation and could use green lipped mussel extract for dogs? Perhaps you have simply noticed for yourself an uncharacteristic lack of enthusiasm for exercise, stiffness after rest, awkwardness mounting steps or jumping into the car. It really makes no difference if your aspirations were to shine in the breed ring, at obedience or agility or simply to enjoy a naturally active life-style with your pet – no doubt you will be looking around for the best way to keep him as comfortable as possible for as long as possible. Remember though that dogs do still need exercise, not so much as to cause an excess amount of wear and tear but sufficient to keep muscles toned so that they can work to support the joints.&nbsp;</p><p><strong>What’s in Green Lipped Mussel that helps dogs?</strong>&nbsp;</p><p>Unique Omega 3 Fatty Acid - ETA The Green Lipped Mussel possesses a profile of Omega-3 essential fatty acids which is unique . No other marine or vegetable sources contain anything like as much beneficial Omega 3 oils. Most sources of Poly-unsaturated fatty acids (eg fish oils, flax oil etc) are a mixture of Omega 3 and Omega 6 oils. The balance between the amount of Omega 3 and 6 consumed is vital because Omega 6 oils can increase inflammation. Our Flex Green Lipped Mussel extract is rich in Omega 3 oils providing up to 200 times as much per milligram as fish and vegetable oils. Natural Glucosamine and Chondroitin Flex Jointcare provides a rich source of all major classes of Glycosaminoglycans (GAGS) which are principle components of cartilage and the synovial fluid found in the joint. These GAGS provide flexibility, elasticity and tensile strength to the articular cartilage. Good joint health can depend on promoting GAGS content within the joint and surrounding cartilage. As a source of GAGS, Green Lipped Mussel can provide chondrocytes with Chondroitin Sulphate and essential fatty acids which are critical for maintaining joint health.&nbsp;</p><p><strong>A complete joint care formula</strong>&nbsp;</p><p>Flex Jointcare is the complete joint-care product as it is well balanced with Chondroitin Sulphates 4 and 6, chelated minerals, Glycosaminoglycan GAGS, amino acids and essential fatty acids which together give a synergistic effect that promotes healthy cartilage and provides shock absorbing properties to the joint</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>We use Glycomega Plus Green Lipped Mussel. Grown in New Zealand in the Marlborough Sound on our suppliers own farms. It is a fully sustainable process with no adverse marine effects either on the environment or wildlife. The mussels filter their own food from the sea with no added involvement. Glycomega Plus provenance is therefore beyond question.&nbsp;</p><p><span style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255);color:rgb(0,0,0);">Because cheaper Green Lipped Mussel extracts have some of the fatty acids removed they are not as effective at reducing inflammation. Flex Green Lipped Mussel is full strength with no oils extracted. It is supplied direct to us from the New Zealand producer who farms the mussels, processes them and then has every batch tested by an independent body. The mussels are harvested at their peak once per year and the process uses cold extraction and drying technology. &nbsp;</span></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Active Ingredients/capsule:</strong>&nbsp;<br>Green Lipped Mussel (cold extracted not de-fatted 220mg&nbsp;<br>Proprietary Cetylated Fatty Acid Complex with Celadrin 180mg<br>selenium 1mcg,&nbsp;<br>zinc (gluconate) 3mg,&nbsp;<br>vitamin E 3mg, &nbsp;<br>vitamin C 4mg,&nbsp;<br>algae extracts (spirulina and ascophylum)</p><p><br><strong>Capsules</strong>; vegetable cellulose</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
