Orlando, FL— February 24, 2016 — Both glucosamine and chondroitin are popular natural remedies for individuals who suffer from arthritis. The good news is that they are not just a popular natural solution for humans, but also animals recovering from surgery.
Glucosamine and chondroitin are believed to be helpful in fighting post-surgery joint pain in dogs. Both are popular supplement ingredients, and they are thought to make an ideal combination in fighting a range of symptoms caused by arthritis.
In Europe, both glucosamine and chondroitin have been a long-accepted effective remedy for osteoarthritis. Today, they are recommended by physicians and veterinarians in the United States as a pain relief option for people and animals with chronic joint pain.
Older ad huge breed dogs are often more susceptible to hip dysplasia and disk problems. It is believed that the two ingredients could potentially help provide pain relief and mobility restoration. Both ingredients are thought to supply the nutrients necessary for cartilage repair and function.
Since both have the potential ability to do repair, they are ideal for dogs that are recovering after surgery. These ingredients are naturally-occurring molecules inside the body. They are abundantly found in the joint fluid, cartilage, and the connective tissue that prevent friction between bones during movements.
According to experts, chondroitin takes care of absorbing the fluids needed for a healthy cartilage. It is also believed to aid in the generation of new cartilage as well as prevent tissue break down. Glucosamine, on the other hand, works by strengthening the cartilage and triggering the production of glycosaminoglycans, which makes up the connective tissue.
Both glucosamine and chondroitin are available in varying human and animal formulations. There are those ideal for dogs, cats, and horses. Vets recommend 250 to 500 mg of glucosamine to dogs weighing 5 to 20 pounds. Those more than 90 pounds could get a dose of 1,500 mg.
For chondroitin supplements, it is 900 mg for dogs less than 80 pounds and 1,800 mg for those more than 80 pounds. There are signs when the natural remedies become beneficial for the dogs. It is when they lick their joints, refuse to step up or down, or when they get reluctant to play or jump.
Owners may consult a vet to see if their pet needs the natural remedies, especially when their furry-family members just had a surgery. There are many glucosamine supplements available nowadays, and the most popular ones are those that contain other ingredients such as chondroitin. There are even products that do not only contain glucosamine and chondroitin, but also MSM and turmeric (amazon.com/Glucosamine-Sulfate-Chondroitin-Supplement-Turmeric/dp/B00DUMO9X4).
