Description:
GLYCO-FLEX® II provides comprehensive support for joint function and connective tissue health in dogs with moderate joint dysfunction. GLYCO-FLEX® II represents stage II of our comprehensive stage of life program for joint support. It's also recommended by veterinarians for adult and maturing dogs, sporting and working breeds as well as follow-up to orthopedic surgery.
Perna canaliculus (New Zealand Green-Lipped Mussel) is a good source of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), protein, minerals, and chondroitin sulfates.
Along with Glucosamine, MSM and Perna canaliculus, GLYCO-FLEX® II contains Manganese and N,N-Dimethylglycine (DMG) to support joint function and and antioxidant activity. 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® II 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.
