Turmeric for joints

Joint pain is widespread in dogs and current treatment consists of reducing pain with anti-inflammatory drugs, both steroidal (corticosteroids) and non-steroidal (NSAIDs), but at the cost of a long list of adverse effects: ulcers, kidney or liver failure, among others.

Studies show that curcumin is a natural and effective alternative for reducing joint pain in dogs because it inhibits the secretion of prostaglandins, substances that cause cartilage degeneration and joint inflammation. (Dejonckheere 2016).

A study published in 2017 concluded that a dog diet supplemented with a combination of turmeric and hydrolysed collagen, for at least 3 months, significantly reduces pain in dogs with osteoarthritis. The explanation lies in the fact that curcumin inhibits the expression of COX-2, thereby inhibiting the synthesis of inflammatory substances such as cytokines, prostaglandins, leukotrienes and thromboxanes. (Comblain 2017).

Product made in Belgium according to ISO 22000, HACCP and food standards for complementary pet food.

Turmeric grown in India:

Turmeric rhizomes are grown in the Karnataka region in collaboration with over 200 local producers. The plantations and production methods are meticulously audited to obtain a high quality curcumin.
