Contains 13 Active Nutraceuticals:

Nutraceuticals are nutritional substances that provide additional health benefits. Through the addition of the following nutraceuticals, Joint Aid provides complementary support for all dogs.

1 - Chondroitin

Chondroitin is essential for the resilience and natural regeneration of cartilage. It maintains normal enzymatic activity and water holding capacity to provide healthy resistance to compression.

2 - Collagen Matrix

Collagen possesses great tensile strength and provides a framework that gives tissues their firmness and resilience. It is essential for connecting and supporting the bones, tendons, muscles and cartilage.

3 - Curcumin

Curcumin is the active ingredient of the spice, turmeric. It is a natural and powerful antioxidant and supports the normal anti-inflammatory action of the body.

4 - Glucosamine

Glucosamine gives cartilage its structure and shock absorbing qualities. It is essential for the regeneration of cartilage and is also involved in the formation of tendons, skin, bone and ligaments.

5 - Glutamic Acid

Glutamic Acid is a natural flavour enhancer and important nutritional support for natural healing and gut health during times of stress.

6 - Hemp Oil Derived Omega 3 Fatty Acids

Hemp Oil is probably the best source of Omega 3 fatty acids found in the plant world. This unique combination enables the animal to produce other essential Omega 3 fats called EPA & DHA, both of which are normally only found in fish oils and are crucial for maintaining the natural anti-inflammatory action of the body.

7 - MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane)

MSM is a source of sulphur, which helps to form cross-links with other molecules that maintain the strength and integrity of connective tissues. It is also essential for the manufacture of collagen.

8 - Piperine Black Pepper Extract

Piperine Black Pepper Extract is a natural nutritional addition that helps to maintain the absorption of poorly retained active nutraceuticals, i.e. curcumin.

9 - Vitamin C

Vitamin C is essential for the production of collagen in the body that forms the matrix of connective tissues in mammals. It directly affects the level of tissue growth, development or repair after injury so is crucial for healing and the body’s immune system.

Oatinol is a natural high-quality oil-based concept developed by and unique to GWF Nutrition. When incorporated into the feed it supplies four active nutraceuticals to:

Maintain gut cell integrity.

Maintain the lining of the gut.

Support the immune system.

Aid the absorption of active ingredients, vitamins and trace elements.

10 - Galactolipid Natural Emulsifiers

Galactolipids are a combination of sugar and fat molecules that create the perfect medium for the absorption of active ingredients across the gut wall.

11 - Natural Tocotrienol Antioxidants

Tocotrienol antioxidants are a natural form of vitamin E. They are 40-60 times more readily available than other forms of vitamin E and help to maintain the integrity of the cells forming the lining of the gut to aid absorption.

12 - Oat Derived Beta Glucans

Beta Glucans have prebiotic properties that support beneficial bacteria in the gut to promote healthy absorption.

13 - Phospholipids

Phospholipids have emulsifying properties and have been shown to actively influence nutrient digestibility and absorption.
