The Benefits of Arthriti-UM® Plus

Read what Mark & Chappell’s Pet Behaviourist, Sara Whittaker, DipCABT, has to say about Arthriti-UM Plus

Many dogs suffer from joint and mobility problems from hip dysplaysia, a condition where the hips don’t form properly, to injuries which have prolonged effects such as arthritis or obesity-related joint conditions. As veterinary medicine makes great strides in diagnosing these conditions, the provision of treatments such as anti-inflammatories and adjunct therapies such as hydrotherapy and physiotherapy are being increasingly utilised to assist pets with their condition and to give them the best chance possible of a normal, happy life.

An alternative approach to helping your pet is by giving supplements to try and maintain healthy bones and joints for as long as possible. Arthriti-UM® Plus is a unique, concentrated source of the natural supplements Glucosamine and Chondroitin Sulphate, developed by Mark & Chappell in conjunction with a well known animal physiotherapist, Dr Shahad Mohammed, to give the maximum benefit to the pet. Available in either tablet or in the form of a delicious high energy paste, this supplement given twice per day provides all the essential ingredients for the maintenance of healthy bones and supple joints.

Cartilage is a rubbery gel-like tissue that acts as a shock absorber between the bones. Under normal circumstances cartilage undergoes constant “wear and tear” however cartilage does possess the ability to counteract this because of its capacity to replenish itself. In damaged joints the breakdown of the cartilage can be faster than the repair rate. The key ingredients of Arthriti-UM® Plus are Glucosamine which helps in the natural cartilage rebuilding process and Chondroitin Sulphate which slows the natural breakdown of cartilage. Arthriti-UM® Plus also contains a range of specific vitamins, minerals and trace elements which are important co-factors in the natural repair and maintenance of bones and joints.

Combining these key ingredients helps to obtain optimal joint function by helping the cartilage to maintain its natural repair rate and also slow the breakdown of the cartilage. The other additional benefit of Arthriti-UM® Plus is it can be used in conjunction with prescription medication.
