blocks required for natural
replenishment.
-
Wheat gluten free.
-
Contains 11 active
ingredients, including: chondroitin,
collagen, curcumin, glucosamine,

Nutricine / Active Ingr.
|
Why We Use It
|
Chondroitin
|
Chondroitin is essential for the resilience of cartilage by
maintaining the resistance to compression. It also aids the repair and
formation of connective tissue.
|
Collagen
|
Collagen possesses great tensile strength and provides the body’s
tissues with their firmness and strength. Referred to as the “glue that
holds the body together”, it is essential for connecting and supporting
the bones, tendons, muscles and cartilage.
|
Curcumin
|
Curcumin is the active ingredient of the spice, turmeric. It is a
natural and powerful antioxidant and supports the normal
anti-inflammatory action of the body.
|
Glucosamine
|
Glucosamine gives cartilage its strength, structure and shock
absorbing qualities. It is involved in the formation of tendons, skin,
bone and ligaments and is found in high concentrations in connective
tissue and cartilage.
|
Glutamine
|
Glutamine is a protein derived amino acid that supports the natural
immune response and is essential for gut wall integrity.
|
MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane)
|
MSM is a source of natural organic sulphur. Sulphur is found in high
concentrations in joints and helps to form cross links with other
molecules that maintain the strength and integrity of connective
tissues.
|
Vitamin C
|
Vitamin C is essential for the production of collagen in the body
that forms the matrix of connective tissues in mammals. It directly
affects the level of tissue growth, development or repair after injury
so is crucial for healing and the body’s immune system.
|
Contains the
Oatinol®
Delivery System
For all of the above
nutricines to be utilised, they have to be
absorbed from the greyhounds’ digestive
tract. Oatinol supplies natural
antioxidants, polar lipids, beta glucans and
galactolipid emulsifiers, required to
maintain gut cell integrity, maintain the
lining of the gut, support the immune system
and aid the absorption of nutricines,
vitamins and trace elements.
Oatinol - Galactolipid Natural Emulsifiers
|
Galactolipids are a combination of sugar and fat molecules that help
establish the perfect medium for enzyme activity in the gut to absorb feed components.
|
Oatinol - Natural
Tocotrienol Antioxidants
|
Tocotrienol antioxidants are found naturally in oat bran. This
tocotrienol form of vitamin E is 40 to 60 times more readily recycled in
membrane systems and supports tissue integrity.
|
Oatinol - Oat Derived
Beta Glucans
|
Beta glucans provide nourishment for beneficial fibre degrading
microbes and helps maintain a high level of natural immunity.
|
Oatinol - Polar Lipids
|
Polar lipids are found in high concentrations in cell membranes and
are essential for tissue integrity and the controlled passage of
materials into and out of cells.
