Vitamin E has long been known as an effective antioxidant, but also reduces those enzymes associated with protein breakdown.

What we are also beginning to understand is what also happens to muscle and merely increasing protein intake is not the most efficient route to supporting muscular activity.Crucial for bone development. Also important for the immune system, fertility and the release of insulin. In line with all metabolic processes there is a balance between anabolism (building) and catabolism (breakdown). Normal levels of activity are within the natural constraints and muscle wear is matched by regeneration. Joint Aid for Dogs can be fed to all dogs, regardless of age, size or level of exercise.
