How does hyaluronic acid benefit a pet’s joints?
The HA in Hyaflex™ acts to help improve joint movement, lubrication and cushioning. If we can compare the joints of the pet to an automobile engine; the joint mimics the oil in a car engine. At regular intervals we replace the oil in our car engines because the heat and friction of normal operation causes a breakdown of the oil viscosity. The oil becomes thinner and less able to protect the metal surfaces from excessive wear. Hyaflex™ acts the same way in the joints. With age the viscosity of the joint fluid breaks down. It becomes thin and is unable to cushion the joint cartilage, leading to increased friction and wear on the cartilage surfaces of the joints. Administering Hyaflex™ helps restore the normal viscosity of joint fluid. Dogs and cats can become sore in their haunches with old age, and Hyaflex™ helps restore normal mobility.
