Multi-Source Glucosamine For Dogs
Supports Joint Function and Connective Tissue
Vetri-Science Multi-Source Glucosamine is a nutritional supplement to support joint and connective tissue health. The
three forms of glucosamine, N-Acetyl Glucosamine, Glucosamine Hydrochloride, and
Glucosamine Sulfate are naturally occurring substrates used by the body for the
biosynthesis of special macromolecules called glycoproteins, glycosaminoglycans
(GAGs), and proteoglycans. Glucosamines are part of the structural elements in
cell walls, intercellular spaces, and connective tissues. Glucosamines give
shape, elasticity and rigidity to such tissues as cartilage, tendons, ligaments,
intervertebral discs, and mucous membranes. Glucosamine Sulfate and Glucosamine
Hydrochloride help glycosaminoglycans to hold more water thereby increasing
joint flexibility, cushioning ability and resiliency. N-Acetyl glucosamine is
produced from Glucosamine in the body and supports proper functioning of the
digestive tract lining. All three forms of Glucosamine are considered important
nutritional factors.
Note: The mineral levels in Multi-Source Glucosamine are too high for
cats. Vetri-Science Single-Source Glucosamine is recommended for cats.
