Description: COLL AGAIN MAX COLLAGEN PEPTIDE SUPPORT* HIPS, JOINT, BONE and CARTILAGE* CAPSULES FOR DOGS and CATS*

Did you know that collagen is vital to the health and wellness of your dog and cat, comprising about 30% of your pet's body as well as comprises about 75% of your pet's skin?

Collagen is the key protein in our pets' body, comprising 70% of their skin and coat, and 30% of their bones, cartilage, tendons, teeth and joints, plus it is found in your pet's lungs, heart and digestive tract. Collagen is tasked with supporting and maintaining tensile strength and elasticity in moving points of your pet's body, like joints.

Not only are our pet's body systems linked, but collagen links and binds to other structural supports in the body like elastic and keratin, and together, support fluid and flexible movement throughout your pet's lifetime. As your pet ages, the ability to produce collagen declines.

COLL AGAIN MAX COLLAGEN PEPTIDE SUPPORT* contains a diverse array of natural, healthy plant phytochemistry and potential nutritional values related to its water and fat soluble antioxidant vitamins and minerals, proanthocyanins, anthocyanins, flavonoids, mixed carotenoids, plant steroids, digestive enzymes, bio-available proteins, phenols, flavonols, flavones, tannins, xanthones, alkaloids (including a novel anti-inflammatory alkaloid called alchorneine), triterpenes, amino acids, sesquiterpenes, glucosinolates and glycosaminoglycans (GAG's) content.

The master blend plants contained in COLL AGAIN MAX COLLAGEN PEPTIDE SUPPORT* are primary collagen producers that from the structural and smooth muscle tissues found throughout the animal body, but are especially critical to working and performance dogs and breeds predisposed to significant joint decline. Collagen primarily affects bones, joints, connective tissues, teeth and eyes, but also, smooth muscles found in every body system of your pet's body.

COLL AGAIN MAX COLLAGEN PEPTIDE SUPPORT* can be used two ways; as a possible preventative for working and performance dogs and breeds that are predisposed to joint decline; but is best used as a layering product for cases related to EXTREME cartilage, joint or bone decline. COLL AGAIN MAX COLLAGEN PEPTIDE SUPPORT* can be combined with either JOINT EASE or JOINT REVIVAL MAX for extreme cases such as an ACL tear or other causes of destructive joint decline where an additional layer of supplemental support is suggested.

Its phytochemistry has been studied to potentially be regenerative in nature, and may help stimulate collagen production, which is the structural framework of your pet's bones, teeth, eyes, connective tissues and joints.

Some of the documented plant actions include antioxidant, muscle relaxant, anti-inflammatory, anti-rheumatic, anti-arthritic, broad based analgesic (back, muscles, stomach, arthritis, rheumatism), endocrine regulator, immune stimulant, and tonic (tones, balances, strengthens overall body functions)

Vitamins A, B1, B2, B3 and C, fatty acids, selenium, calcium, protein, thiamin, bioflavonoids, plus mixed carotenoids (including lutein, astaxanthin and zeaxanthin); resveratrol, proanthocyanins, glycosaminoglycans, glucose, potassium, phosphorous, iron, plus the amino acids serine, valine and leucine; co-factor enzymes, terpenes alpha-pinene and d-limonene and flavonoids, have been studied for their effects to potentially help regenerate up to 30% of bone and tissue content when loss has occurred, may help build bone mass, bone strength, bone mineral density, cartilage, joints and joint health, muscles, connective tissues, blood vessels, myelin sheath, eye tissue health and immune response.

Did you know that naturally occurring vitamins and minerals have a greater assimilation rate than synthetic forms and the extensive and complex plant chemistry synergistically compounds potential benefits that can be derived and delivered to all body systems?

In a traditional medical system, the plants in COLL AGAIN MAX COLLAGEN PEPTIDE SUPPORT* are used for both nutritional support to muscles and joints as well to help address conditional needs related to rheumatism, arthritis, muscle pains, for helping support flexibility and range of motion as well as symptomatic relief for osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

COLL AGAIN MAX COLLAGEN PEPTIDE SUPPORT* also contains ingredients with potential plant actions of PCK (protein kinase C) and PCA (protein kinase A)inhibition, which is directly related to helping control pain and inflammation in the body. What's interesting about the adaptogen plant actions found in COLL AGAIN MAX COLLAGEN PEPTIDE SUPPORT* is that in cases of osteoarthritis, it may help stimulate immune response as needed, whereas in cases of rheumatoid arthritis, it does not stimulate immune response which would cause further decline, making it a potential positive support for all cases of episodic or chronic joint pain and inflammation.

The novel, naturally occurring specialty plant actions include PKC (protein kinase C) and COX-1 inhibitors (cyclooxygenase-1inhibitory actions) as well as collagen producing plant chemicals (specifically proteoglycans and glycosaminoglycans) which may have a particular affinity for inflammatory conditional needs related to joint decline and inflammation and degenerative cartilage conditions.

PKC and COX-1 inhibitors are a specific type of plant action that may help restrict pain and inflammation related to all types of arthritis and degenerative cartilage conditions. COLL AGAIN MAX COLLAGEN PEPTIDE SUPPORT* contains specific PKC and COX inhibitor plant and marine compounds that are used holistically in a traditional, herbal medical system for symptoms related to all types of arthritis, rheumatism (aches, pain) and neuralgia.

COLL AGAIN MAX COLLAGEN PEPTIDE SUPPORT* contains specific collagen building botanicals that are also primary, first class adaptogens. Adaptogens function like body readers, in that they carry out what we call the "3 R Function," in that they may help help READ, REPAIR and RESTORE. First, adaptogens may help read or identify stress and imbalance in the body; next they may help repair nutritionally and phytochemically related defects in tissues, cells and organs; lastly they may help restore body system balance, known as homeostasis.

COLL AGAIN MAX COLLAGEN PEPTIDE SUPPORT*also contains the most importantantioxidant, free radical scavenging and analgesic (pain relieving) natural plants on the planet. It may help build your pet's defense system against viruses, bacteria, allergens, pathogens, microbes, colds, may help address conditional needs of either acute or chronic pain as well as its possible anti-aging benefits to possibly help promote longevity.

The ascorbic acid found in COLL AGAIN MAX COLLAGEN PEPTIDE SUPPORT*may help stimulate white blood cell production, which may help significantly boost the immune system, and is also a key component in all types of collagen production, which helps repair and develop cells, tissues, and organs. >How important is this process?

Collagen production is the primary building material of bones, ligament, tendons and tissues of your pet's bones. Collagen forms the rods that give actual structure and strength to every bone in your pet's body, which is required to sustain and nourish the health and strength of your pet's skeletal structure over its lifetime. Collagen production can become even more important in cases of arthritis, bone loss and joint diseases, such as Intervertebral Disk Disease and Degenerative Joint Disease.

In traditional medical systems, the plants found in COLL AGAIN MAX COLLAGEN PEPTIDE SUPPORT* has been studied for its strong antioxidant plant and fruit actions, its natural anti-inflammatory, anti-aging and skin-reparative phytochemical content, which may help slow down aging and help promote tissue regeneration. (*

COLL AGAIN MAX COLLAGEN PEPTIDE SUPPORT* contains natural phytochemical content which may be instrumental in helping to build all types of collagen, including:

Type I: The most common form of collagen, found in the GI tract; may help build bones, help heal wounds and may help maintain skin elasticity.

Type II: Related to helping build cartilage found in connective tissues, especially important in cases of age related joint pain and joint decline caused by arthritis.

Type III: Related to the tiny fibers that comprise organs, skin, blood vessels and heart tissues; may help provide tensile elasticity to skin and tissues. A deficiency of Type II collages has been attributed with cardiovascular conditions.

Type V: Comprises the many tiny fibers of collagen itself, found in hair follicles, cell surfaces and placenta tissues.

Type X: Collagen involved in direct formation of bones and articular cartilage and may be important in helping repair synovial joints and damage to bones, including breaks and strains.

COLL AGAIN MAX COLLAGEN PEPTIDE SUPPORT* may help play an important role in helping support eye health due to its mixed carotenoid content including lutein, zeaxanthin and astaxanthin, which are potent antioxidants that may help support critical connective tissues of the eye, such as the macula and retina, as well as may help nourish myelin sheath found in the Central Nervous System pathways.

Specific plant chemistry related to plant adaptogen content is used holistically to help improve your pet's resistance to metabolic, oxidative, physiological, biochemical, physical, emotional, environmental, immune, central nervous and neurological stress and dysfunction, due in part, to its alkaloid and amino and fatty acid content which may help nutritionally support the endocrine system.

Its natural phytochemical content may also combine synergistically to help promote maximum utilization and absorption of nutrients in the animal body, making it an ideal health boosting addition to all life stage diets.
