PhyCox Max Soft Chews are formulated with a synergistic combination of ingredients to help relieve inflammation as part of normal daily activity. Phycox is a naturally derived extract of wild blue-green algae grown in the United States. Blue-green algae are a rich source of phytonutrients including Phycocyanin, a biliprotein that has scientifically demonstrated health benefits. The Phycox patented process produces a highly concentrated source of Phycocyanin, offering strong joint support and relief of discomfort in two ways:
1. Proven Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) Inhibition – Recent studies demonstrate the high concentrations of Phycocyanin found in Phycox specifically inhibit the COX-2 enzyme, blocking the synthesis of inflammatory eicosanoids, the natural mediators of inflammation in the body.
2. Dynamic Antioxidant – Phycocyanin has robust free radical scavenging properties. It can help enhance the body’s defense against the degradative effects of free radicals that cause cellular damage and play a role in a host of degenerative conditions in dogs.
Glucosamine HCL:
Reduces the activity of inflammatory mediators and damaging enzymes that can degrade cartilage.
Turmeric:
Turmeric is a natural botanical extract from the roots of the Curcuma longa plant with well-researched health benefits. Due to its ability to inhibit leukotriene biosynthesis and modify prostaglandin production, Turmeric has demonstrated anti-inflammatory and antioxidant capabilities.
Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM):
MSM provides dietary sulfur that aids in the efficient function of cellular membranes and supports healthy muscles and joints by reducing inflammation.
Omega-3 Fatty Acids:
Omega-3 Fatty Acids help reduce inflammation by altering the production of inflammatory mediators and support joint health by inhibiting enzymes involved in cartilage matrix destruction.
