Description:
GLYCO-FLEX® III provides maximum support for joint function and connective
tissue health in dogs with severe joint dysfunction. GLYCO-FLEX® III
represents stage III of our comprehensive stage of life program for joint
support and long term mobility. It’s also recommended by veterinarians for
geriatric and retired working and sporting dogs as well as a follow-up to
orthopedic surgery.
Perna canaliculus (New
Zealand Green-Lipped Mussel) is a good source of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs),
protein, minerals, and chondroitin sulfates for joint support.
Along with Glucosamine,
MSM and Perna canaliculus, GLYCO-FLEX® III contains N,NDimethylglycine (DMG),
Vitamins C and E, Selenium, Manganese, Grape Seed Extract and L Glutathione
for additional antioxidant support. Vetri-Science holds 3 U.S. patents on
DMG in the area of immune response, which demonstrates the multiple benefits
that this ingredient can provide for the health and well-being of the dog.
The Perna canaliculus
used in GLYCO-FLEX® III is produced by freeze-drying the entire mussel
(excluding the shell).
Available in a smoke
flavored chewable tablet or an artificial beef flavored soft chew.
