About TRANSCEND supplements (UC-II) for dogs
If you’re new to Transcend (UC-II) collagen supplements, here are a few key points to keep in mind:
- UC-II HAS BEEN PROVEN SUPERIOR TO GLUCOSAMINE/CHONDROITIN SUPPLEMENTS in many studies and, for some pets, is as potent as NSAIDs in reducing pain.
- Most “collagen” products work only to improve skin and nail health. Unless a collagen supplement contains UC-II by name, you are not helping your pet do anything other than avoid a split nail.
- Undenatured Type II Collagen, or UC-II, is a special and patented type of collagen that has been shown to reduce arthritic pain and the progression of arthritis in humans, pets, and horses.
- UC-II collagen for dogs and humans is a very safe supplement. Large studies with hundreds of subjects typically show ZERO negative side effects.
Common problems that TRANSCEND supplements can help with
The UC-II in TRANSCEND can help address many problems with your pet such as:
- Painful Joints: Studies show that 20% of dogs over age 1 have some form of osteoarthritis, meaning these aches and pains are very common. TRANSCEND helps increase flexibility and range of motion while decreasing pain.
- Cartilage degradation: TRANSCEND supplements can actually help slow or halt the degeneration of cartilage! That once again means less pain and irritation for your pet.
Benefits your dog WILL experience with TRANSCEND (UC-II) collagen for dogs
- Improved range of motion: Because TRANSCEND uses UC-II, it can directly address the areas of your dog most affected by arthritis, strengthening joints, and allowing them to move more freely.
- Improved quality of life: Dogs that can run, walk, jump, and play without constant aches and pains are happier dogs. There’s no question that this can improve your dog’s quality of life!
- Pain relief equal to NSAIDs: Studies have shown that UC-II provides pain relief equivalent to NSAIDs in some patients. Even if we’re not able to eliminate NSAID therapy, UC-II may reduce the dosage needed to keep your pet comfortable.
- Reduced cartilage degeneration: Studies have shown that the UC-II in TRANSCEND can reduce the cartilage degeneration caused by arthritis, resulting in better joint health and reduced discomfort for your pet long term.
