Nestle Purina PetCare introduces Joint Mobility brand Canine Formula as part of its Purina Veterinary Diets®. The formula was created to help improve mobility in arthritic dogs. The formula's blend of long-chain omega-3 fatty acids is a natural source of glucosamine and antioxidants that work to reduce enzymes involved in cartilage breakdown.
Joint Mobility brand Canine Formula
The product is created for adult and senior dogs and maintains a high protein-to-calorie ratio, the company says. The formula can significantly reduce the levels of prostaglandin (PGE2) and joint enzymes MMP-2 and MMP-9, resulting in a positive effect on joint health at the chondrocyte level, the company explains.
Omega-3 fatty acids reduce the mediators of cartilage degradation by delivering effective quantities of eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid to joints. Feeding a diet rich in long-chain omega-3 fatty acids alters the fatty acid substrates present in cell membranes, synovial fluid and plasma, the company adds. Management of canine osteoarthritis is multifaceted and includes a combination of body weight and body condition management, nutrition, controlled exercise, analgesic and anti-inflammatory medication to control pain and inflammation and disease-modifying osteoarthritis agents.
