Information:
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.
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.
Joint Support:
In addition to relieving inflammation, the PhyCox formula offers a joint support matrix for healthy synovial maintenance as well as bone and muscle support. Glucosamine HCl A precursor for glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), essential building blocks of cartilage, glucosamine supports joint health by stimulating GAG production in the extracellular matrix of cartilage. Glucosamine reduces the activity of inflammatory mediators and damaging enzymes that can degrade cartilage. Boron Boron is a mineral required for normal bone metabolism. Boron supplementation increases bone strength and the mineral content of the bone organic matrix. Through its interaction with nutrients such as calcium, magnesium and Vitamin D, Boron improves overall bone metabolism. Creatine Monohydrate A vital amino acid found in skeletal muscle, Creatine plays a role in muscular energy and may have value in improving muscle strength, making pets feel more energetic. Antioxidants In addition to potent protection from oxidative damage offered by Phycocyanin, Turmeric and other key ingredients.
