Treating your pet with Technyflex®, a high quality joint supplement, will assist in many ways. Administering prior to onset of these conditions is also recommended for increased mobility and as prevention for ageing joints.

Rebuilds Joints

A key component in rebuilding cartilage and connective tissues, are Glucosamine's and GAG's (Glycosaminoglycans/ Mucopolysaccharides). GAG's consist of precursors such as Glycosaminoglycans and Chondroitin suflates which provide the necessary building blocks to rebuild cartilage and connective tissues.

GAG's also contribute to the viscosity formation of synovial fluid, which are well known for their lubrication qualities of the joint. These characteristics (GAG's) also offer protection from free radicals and provides nourishment of the joint.

Anti-inflammatory Pain Relief

• A natural analgesic (pain reliever)
• Rich source of anti-inflammatory Omega-3 fatty acids
• Soothes stiff joints

By utilising the safe and beneficial COX-1 pathway, Omega-3's (ETA, EPA & DHA) inhibit and in effect block the inflammation pathways known as COX-2 and LIPOX-5.

I first discovered Technyflex® as a wonderful alternative treatment for my 9 year old Great Dane. At the time he could no longer take Vet prescribed drugs for arthritis due to their side effects.

Technyflex® relieved his pain and had no damaging side effects. I have since given it to my other dogs for inflammatory conditions due to injury as well, and have had the same excellent results.

Late last year I noticed my 17 year old Red Cattle dog was starting to develop quite a bad limp due to arthritis in his front left and rear joints. I started him on Technyflex® Canine capsules. At first there was no dramatic improvement, however around 7- 10 days later I noticed Max was not pulling his fur out and seemed to be able to get up a lot easier.

After two weeks he had noticeably more energy and was actually running alongside the car (something he had not done for months). His fur has grown back completely and he could get up a lot easier first thing in the mornings.

I am certain Technyflex® Canine capsules have had a positive effect on his general health, energy and mobility.

Paddy my 7 year old dog was begining to show the signs of athritis. I am very careful with his diet and want to avoid steroids. I decided to try Technyflex® and the results were dramatic. Clearly it helped him more than any supplement had in the past.

He now takes two tablets per day and our Vet says he looks wonderful- so free in his movement. I hope many others who want to maintain their dogs'health will give Technyflex® a try.
