Why Pure Supplements Are Better for Your Pet’s Health than Diluted Foods and Treats

As pet owners, we want to give our furry friends the best possible care, and that includes ensuring they get all the essential nutrients they need to stay healthy including joint support. One of the most effective ways to do this is by adding pure supplements to your pet's diet to help their mobility. While many foods and treats claim to contain beneficial supplements, they often fall short of delivering the necessary amounts to truly benefit your pet. Here’s why using pure supplements is a better choice for your pet’s health—and your wallet.

What Are Pure Supplements?

Pure supplements are high-quality, concentrated forms of specific nutrients, designed to target your pet’s health needs directly such us joints. At our store, we offer a variety of these supplements, including:

  • Green Lipped Mussel: Known for its anti-inflammatory properties, it's great for joint health. Element 5 is our go to for joint issues. Element 5 Motion Renewal has become recognized as one of the most effective natural anti inflammatory supplements on the market. Element 5 Motion Renewal supplies a natural blend of proteins, minerals, glycosaminoglycans and essential Omega 3 fatty acids . The unique Motion Renewal substances help joint mobility, cartilage maintenance, and maintaining good health.
  • Glucosamine HCL and Glucosamine HCL Chondroitin Sulfate MSM: These are joint supplements that support cartilage repair and reduce pain in pets with arthritis or joint issues sourced straight from a pharmacy with no diluting ingredients.
  • Probiotics: Pure probiotic powders help promote a healthy gut, improving digestion and boosting immune function.
  • Salmon and Herring Oils: Rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, these oils help support healthy skin, coat, joints, and heart.

By using these supplements in their pure form, you ensure that your pet is getting the full dose of the nutrients they need, without any fillers or unnecessary ingredients.

Why Foods and Treats with Supplements Don’t Measure Up

Many commercial pet foods and treats for joints advertise added supplements like glucosamine, probiotics, or omega fatty acids. While this may seem like a convenient way to give your pet these benefits, the reality is that these products often contain such small amounts of the active ingredients that they don't provide significant health benefits.

Here’s why relying on these foods and treats may not be enough and are more costly to supplement with:

  • Low Dosage: Many foods and treats contain minimal amounts of supplements, far below the levels needed to improve your pet’s health. For example, the glucosamine in a bag of kibble might be insufficient for a dog with arthritis. Levels are usually indicated by how many MG per KG such as 700mg/kg of glucosamine - so to get this dose your pet would need to eat 1kg (2.2lbs) of food to receive 700mg.
  • Degradation During Processing: The heat and processing methods used in making pet food can degrade the effectiveness of supplements like probiotics and omega-3s, leaving your pet with little to no benefit.
  • Fillers and Additives: Pet foods and treats often contain fillers, artificial flavors, and preservatives, which dilute the nutritional value and may even be harmful in the long run.

In contrast, pure supplements are concentrated, delivering the full benefit without unnecessary extras.

The Health Benefits of Pure Supplements

Pure supplements offer targeted support for your pet’s health needs. Here’s how they can make a real difference:

  • Joint Health and Mobility: Pure glucosamine, chondroitin, and MSM are proven to support cartilage health, reduce joint pain, and improve mobility in pets with arthritis or joint problems. When given in appropriate doses, these supplements can help your pet stay active and comfortable.
  • Skin, Coat, and Heart Health: Salmon and herring oils are packed with Omega-3 fatty acids, which are crucial for healthy skin, a shiny coat, and heart health. Pets with allergies, dry skin, or dull coats can see significant improvements when these oils are added to their diet in pure form.
  • Digestive Health and Immunity: Pure probiotics improve gut health, aid digestion, and boost immune function. They help regulate your pet’s digestion and reduce issues like diarrhea, constipation, and bloating.
  • Anti-Inflammatory Support: Green-lipped mussel has powerful anti-inflammatory properties, making it a natural solution for reducing joint pain and stiffness, especially in senior pets.

Price Benefits of Using Pure Supplements

At first glance, buying foods or treats with added supplements may seem like a cost-effective solution. However, because these products often don’t contain enough of the active ingredients, you may end up spending more over time without seeing the results you expect.

Here’s why pure supplements are a better financial choice:

  • Higher Potency: Since pure supplements are more concentrated, you only need to give small amounts to your pet, meaning one bottle or container can last for weeks or even months.
  • More Effective: You won’t need to buy multiple products or extra supplements to make up for the lack of nutrients in commercial foods. One high-quality supplement does the job right the first time.
  • Fewer Vet Bills: By supporting your pet’s health with the right supplements, you can prevent or manage chronic conditions like arthritis, skin issues, or digestive problems. This means fewer trips to the vet and less money spent on medications down the line.

Conclusion

When it comes to your pet's health, pure supplements are the best way to ensure their nutritional needs are being met. While pet foods and treats with added supplements may seem like a convenient option, they often don’t provide enough of the nutrients your pet requires. Pure supplements, on the other hand, deliver concentrated, high-quality ingredients that support your pet’s health effectively and affordably.

So, whether you’re looking to support joint health with glucosamine, boost digestive health with probiotics, or enhance your pet’s coat and skin with salmon and herring oils, adding pure supplements to your pet's diet is a smart choice for long-term wellness. Plus, you’ll save money in the long run by investing in products that truly make a difference.
