  The benefits of these, apart from innate immune stimulation, include support for formation of new cartilage tissue, elasticity of articular cartilage and build up of new cartilage tissue. Additional benefits include anti-inflammatory, improved blood flow and positive effects on the intestinal mucosa.
  
  Vitagard H -includes Greenshell Mussel Concentrate of the highest quality (Certified by: Marine Biotoxin Management Program, HACCP - Certificate of Health). Manufactured using an especially well-balanced production process incorporating a special freeze-drying method that maximises nutritional values and gives a higher content of Glycosamine-glycans (Chondroitin sulphate, Glucosamine, amongst others) and Omega-3-fatty acids.
  
  Added Vitamins:
  ■ Vitamin E provided as alpha-tocopherol acetate
  ■ Vitamin C as Vitamin C Trace Elements:
  ■ Zinc provided as zinc oxide
  
  Vitamin E
  Protects body cells against hazardous metabolites, antioxidant action at the site of the cell membrane
  (partitions into cell membranes between fatty acids and lipoproteins). Improves supply and utilization of oxygen in muscles and acts as a natural antioxidant agent
  
  Vitamin C
  Antitoxic effects due to reducing properties. Scavenges free radicals in the brain, the blood, and in cells. Also noted for the synthesis of norepinephrine and attenuating the effects of stress.
  
  Zinc
  Known as the 'power plant' of cells and indispensable for many enzymes (polymerases) of the
  immune system which are responsible for the synthesis of immunologically active proteins
  
  Vitagard for Dogs is primarily designed to strengthen the Immune System and Prophylaxis during recuperation or convalescence.
  
  In gestating Animals Vitagard can benefit:
  
  ■ Activation of macrophages
  ■ Stimulates the proliferation of immune cells
  ■ Boosters the formation of specific antibodies
  ■ Optimization of hormone synthesis
  ■ Antioxidant properties
  ■ Positive effects on muscle metabolism
  
  Effects in puppy's after feeding the female dogs during gestation:
  
  ■ Increase of IgG content in the milk
  ■ Colonization of natural intestinal microflora
  ■ Migration of immune cells into the lungs
  ■ Protection of cells against free radicals

All leading to a vital and healthy young dog

In older animals there tends to be a decreased function of T and B lymphocytes; decreased repair functions and increased damage of the immune system weakened by free radicals Vitagard can help by:
■ Strengthening the body's defense mechanisms
■ Supporting cell regeneration

In Stressful Situations:, Unfamiliar environment, Travel / transport, Tournaments / competitions. Physical exertion Vitagard can be essential.

Additional benefits can include:

• Colonization of the intestines by a natural microflora preventing diarrhoea etc..
• Defense against pollutants and their destruction
• Activation of Langerhans' cells (phagocytic cells in the skin) helping Eczema, fungal infections etc..
• Migration of immunocompetent cells into the lungs helping with acute and chronic bronchitis

Also recommended before and after medical interventions such as vaccination, deworming, operations etc..
