PetHealth OPC is a food supplement made from a combination of bilberry, grape seed, red wine, pine bark extracts, citrus extract bioflavonoids, and glucosamine, designed to help maintain healthy joints and provide a strong antioxidant defense. Oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs) are bioflavonoids (complex organic plant compounds) found in fruits, vegetables and certain tree barks that provide exceptional nutritional benefits to your pet’s body. Studies have shown OPCs to be more powerful than vitamin C and vitamin E in neutralizing free radicals. PetHealth OPC Formula with Glucosamine offers a unique, great-tasting powder that is sprinkled over your pet’s regular food. It represents the latest technology available today in naturally based pet food supplements. PetHealth OPC Formula is available in a tasty beef flavor that your pets will love – and you’ll love knowing that you’re doing all you can to help your pets stay health and love long, healthy lives. Pets face many of the same issues as humans. Many pet foods are over processed and have little nutritive value. Dogs and cats breathe in the same pollution as we do, inhaling free radicals. Powerful antioxidants like OPCs help to strengthen your pet’s free radical defenses. Antioxidants promote cardiovascular health, support healthy visual acuity, promote healthy blood vessel dilation and promote healthy platelet activity.

Your Pets and Joint Health

As pets become older, antioxidants become even more important in the fight against free radicals and their associated effects on cells in joints and other tissues. All animals need joint support as they age. Many factors can affect joint health and the integrity of cartilage, including diet, genetic make-up and activity levels. The cold wintery months can also contribute to a decline in joint comfort. Each animal's genetic code, for example, can influence the thickness and durability of its cartilage and its overall joint health. Proper nutrition, especially antioxidant supplementation, is critical in maintaining healthy joints. Glucosamine has been shown to promote the retention and normal regeneration of cartilage, support normal movement and flexibility of joints and promote joint comfort.

PetHealth OPC Formula for Dogs and Cats with Glucosamine is a supplement designed to promote healthy joints and provide a strong antioxidant defense. Potent antioxidants like OPCs help to strengthen your pet’s free radical defenses as well as help promote cardiovascular health and support healthy vision. PetHealth OPC also contains glucosamine that has been shown to promote the retention and normal regeneration of cartilage, support normal movement and flexibility of joints and promote joint comfort.

What are OPCs?
OPCs, or oligomeric proanthocyanidins, can help reduce the effects of free radicals, support the strength of blood vessels and support healthy vision.  OPCs can also help maintain normal histamine levels.  Not limited to being just strong antioxidants, OPCs are also crucial in their role in supporting the circulatory system.

What are antioxidants, and why should I give them to my pets?
Antioxidants are nutrients that help maintain optimum health by protecting against free radicals.  Antioxidants are found in the body as well as in many plants. Even cells that function normally generate large amounts of oxygen free radicals. Free radicals develop as byproducts of physiological processes that occur within the body. This process is largely responsible for the aging process.

Certain factors in everyday life encourage an increase in the formation of free radicals. These factors include exercise, pollution and food. We need a "neutralizer" in our body to counteract these reactants and a strong and effective antioxidant is the best way to fight free radicals.

It is becoming increasingly apparent to veterinarians that antioxidant supplementation could very well provide optimal health support for dogs and cats. Pets could benefit from a "neutralizer" operating in their systems that fight free radicals.  A strong antioxidant is the best way to fight free radicals.

What is a bioflavonoid?
Bioflavonoids are complex organic plant compounds. Plants and fruits differ in colors based on the specific bioflavonoids they contain.  An increasing number of clinical studies have shown how bioflavonoids support health. Bioflavonoids and OPCs play a key role in supporting cardiovascular health and maintaining vascular integrity. Bioflavonoids have been shown to support healthy circulation and cell vitality. Normal collagen renewal is promoted, which supports firmness of the skin, joint cartilage and connective tissue.
