Notes
- Egg shell membrane does real work. ESM carries dermatan sulfate, chondroitin sulfate and hyaluronic acid, and is known to reduce expression of several proinflammatory cytokines.
- First ASU product for dogs in South Africa. Avocado soybean unsaponifiables are the evidence-led addition that separates this from a standard glucosamine supplement.
- Different job to ArthroFocus. CartliFocus is aimed at cartilage regeneration and joint integrity; ArthroFocus at managing established degenerative disease.
