What is the difference between Extra Strength and Ultimate Strength Healthy Hip & Joint?

- Ultimate Strength Healthy Hip & Joint is formulated with all the above, plus 400 mg of chondroitin per 2 chews to deliver an extra boost of mobility support
For best results, both of these Healthy Hip & Joint supplements recommend a loading dose period of 4-6 weeks.

Ingredient Highlights
Supports joints, healthy tissues and overall health for dog arthritis and other conditions that cause pain and joint stiffness.
GlycOmega™ Green-Lipped Mussel (Perna canaliculus) is the foundation of our formula and nature’s perfect blend for joint support. This New Zealand mussel is a beneficial ingredient and a natural source of chondroitin and glucosamine as well as hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, and omega-3 fatty acids.
Glucosamine Hydrochloride (HCl) is a critical component for building healthy connective tissue and is one of the foundational compounds in cartilage. Ultimate Strength Healthy Hip & Joint uses only the highest quality forms of glucosamine from sources like shrimp & crab, which are some of the only natural sources of this nutrient. Some other joint supplements use synthetically produced glucosamine, which may not be as well-absorbed by the body.
MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) is a sulfur compound found naturally in your dog’s body that supports the structure of joints and connective tissue, as well as many bodily processes including collagen synthesis. Manganese also supports the formation of collagen, which is required for optimal cartilage structure and integrity.
Chondroitin Sulfate is a natural component of your dog’s connective tissue. It’s added to our science-backed formula to help support the structure and integrity of those tissues by absorbing fluids into existing cartilage and providing the building blocks for new cartilage. This helps to promote joint flexibility and overall mobility & comfort.
DMG (N-N-Dimethylglycine) supports your dog’s overall comfort and performance by supporting blood circulation, efficient oxygen utilization, and energy.
Vitamins E & C, Selenium, and L-Glutathione provide antioxidant support to promote free-radical-scavenging activities. Grape Seed Extract (Vitis vinifera) is another powerful antioxidant that can support blood flow and healthy joints.
Storage instructions: Store in a cool, dry place.
