QUICK SUMMARY<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mobility Support is a complementary feed for dogs and cats with eggshell membrane?<\/span><\/span><\/span>, type II collagen?<\/span><\/span><\/span>, glucosamine?<\/span><\/span><\/span>, and chondroitin sulfate?<\/span><\/span><\/span>. Mobility Support is formulated for healthy cartilage and flexible joints. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

What’s in this supplement?<\/h2>\n

Each capsule contains 279 mg glucosamine, 100 mg eggshell membrane, 62.5 mg chondroitin sulfate, and 25 mg type II collagen (Collavant). The substances are encapsulated by liposomes?<\/span><\/span><\/span>: small fat bubbles made of sunflower lecithin. The capsule shell is made of HPMC and is therefore plant-based. <\/p>\n

What does Mobility Support do?<\/h2>\n

Mobility Support provides the building blocks found in cartilage itself. The ingredients are selected for healthy cartilage and flexible joints. <\/p>\n

The biochemistry per ingredient<\/h2>\n

Why cartilage is special<\/h3>\n

Cartilage is the smooth layer on the ends of bones in a joint. It has no blood vessels of its own and gets its nutrition from the synovial fluid?<\/span><\/span><\/span>. As a result, renewal is slow. <\/p>\n

Type II collagen<\/h3>\n

This is the most important collagen in cartilage. The fibers form a net that holds the tissue together and makes it strong when under tension. <\/p>\n

Glucosamine<\/h3>\n

Glucosamine is an amino sugar\u2014a sugar with a nitrogen group. The body produces it from glucose and glutamine. It uses glucosamine as a building block for substances in cartilage and synovial fluid, such as hyaluronic acid?<\/span><\/span><\/span>. <\/p>\n

Chondroitin sulfate<\/h3>\n

This substance is attached to the cartilage protein aggrecan and is negatively charged. Because of this charge, it retains water just like a sponge. This gives cartilage its resilience when under pressure. <\/p>\n

Eggshell membrane<\/h3>\n

This is the thin membrane between the eggshell and the egg white. It naturally contains collagen and substances like hyaluronic acid. Therefore, it is not suitable for those with a sensitivity to eggs. <\/p>\n

How strong is this evidence?<\/strong> The structure of cartilage is well-documented. Research into dietary glucosamine, chondroitin sulfate, and eggshell membrane shows varying results, and specific data for dogs and cats is limited. <\/p>\n

Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n
\n
\n

Can I give Mobility Support to a young animal?<\/h3>\n

Yes. Mobility Support can also be given to growing young animals, for example in large breeds. Cartilage is then in full development. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Why give it long-term?<\/h3>\n

Cartilage renews slowly and gets its nutrients via the joint fluid. Therefore, daily use over a longer period fits this product. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Is Mobility Support suitable for an egg allergy?<\/h3>\n

No. Mobility Support contains eggshell membrane. Do not give it to animals with a known hypersensitivity to eggs. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Works well with<\/p>\n

\n
\n

PEA Complex<\/a><\/p>\n

PEA?<\/span><\/span><\/span> Complex contains PEA and Boswellia serrata?<\/span><\/span><\/span> and is formulated for flexible joints. Mobility Support contains building blocks for cartilage. Thus, the two products complement each other. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

O-Mega Blend<\/a><\/p>\n

O-Mega Blend contains omega-3 fatty acids, which are incorporated into cell membranes, including those of cartilage cells.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Curcumin<\/a><\/p>\n

Curcumin is a polyphenol?<\/span><\/span><\/span> from turmeric. It is a different group of nutrients than the building blocks in Mobility Support. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Coenzyme Q10<\/a><\/p>\n

Coenzyme Q10?<\/span><\/span><\/span> is part of the energy production in the mitochondria?<\/span><\/span><\/span>. Cartilage cells need energy to create matrix. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
