Doppelherz® für Tiere Omega-3 Oil for Joints is a complementary feed for cats and dogs, combining high-quality oils and specially selected active ingredients to support joint metabolism in osteoarthritis:
- Salmon oil provides the two essential omega-3 fatty acids EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), while flaxseed oil and hemp seed oil are rich sources of ALA (alpha-linolenic acid) and GLA (gamma-linolenic acid). Essential omega-3 fatty acids have been shown in numerous studies to support inflammatory processes resulting from joint problems.
- Green-lipped mussel powder (Perna canaliculus) is a source of GAGs (glycosaminoglycans), essential omega-3 fatty acids, and chondroitin.
- Vitamin E and manganese are important antioxidants. Together with the amino acid methionine, they support joint metabolism.
- Chondroitin is a naturally synthesized substance in the body and is an essential component of cartilage tissue. It keeps the joint surface smooth and elastic.
- The active substance in devil's claw root (Harpagophytum procumbens) is harpagoside. It promotes metabolism in tendons, ligaments, and joints.
