Henceforth Glykan Compact

With 40% green lipped muscle extract!

Glycan Compact is an ideal feed supplement to strengthen joints, tendons, ligaments and connective tissue. The dosage is particularly easy due to the tablets. The tasty, small tablets are usually taken up voluntarily by cats and dogs.

Glykan® Compact tablets with 40% green-lipped mussel extract are a further development of the Glykan® powder with 20% mussel extract, which has been tried and tested for many years.

The food supplement supports the formation of cartilage and strengthens tendons, ligaments, intervertebral discs and joint capsules. This strengthens the entire musculoskeletal system.

The anti-inflammatory properties of the green-lipped mussel (Perna canaliculus), which only grows in the waters of New Zealand, were only discovered in the mid-70s. Since then, the mussel has been used in food supplements for humans and animals. Green-lipped mussel extract contains three important components that are necessary for healthy joints: Glycosaminoglycans (GAG), Omega-3 fatty acids (especially DHA, EPA and alpha-linolenic acids) and a unique phosphorylated glycogen molecule. Each substance on its own has been shown to be an important element in promoting healthy joints. In combination, these three substances exhibit a synergistic effect that accounts for the anti-inflammatory phenomenon, exceeding the sum of the effects of the individual substances. Green-lipped mussel powder is also excellent for supplementing glucosamine and chondroitin in the case of joint problems.

The many anabolic substances (vital substances) contained in mussel flesh extract are unique. In addition to the GAG (glycosaminoglycans), the mussel extract contains 10 different minerals, 18 L-amino acids that are extremely important for the organism, omega-3 fatty acids, enzymes and trace elements for the nutrition of connective tissue and cartilage. Since neither cartilage nor connective tissue are supplied with blood, these tissues must be nourished in a different way. This is done by diffusion, a movement of fluids, between the synovial fluid, cartilage and connective tissue. A prerequisite for this is that sufficient synovial fluid is available and sufficient water is stored in the cartilage and connective tissue. Glycosaminoglycans serve as water reservoirs in cartilage and connective tissue, are thus responsible for the shock absorber function of the joints and help to form new synovia (joint fluid). They also promote the elasticity of the cartilage and stabilise the ligaments and joint capsule.

Arthrose

Arthrose ist eine degenerative Gelenkserkrankung, bei der Gelenkknorpel zurückgebildet oder zerstört werden. Das verursacht in weiterer Folge unangenehme Schmerzen. Bei Hunden sind häufig Ellbogen-, Hüft- und Sprunggelenke von diesem Gelenkschwund betroffen. Häufigster Auslöser ist das Alter, jedoch kann mithilfe bestimmter Substanzen der Prozess verlangsamt oder sogar aufgehalten werden.
