To support the joints of cats with osteoarthritis
Lack of movement of the affected joints also aggravates the problem. Joint diseases are often caused by injuries or age-related wear and tear.
Typical osteoarthritis is a chronic joint disease that involves inflammation and progressive loss of healthy joint cartilage.
A sensible supplementation of the diet with special nutrients can support joint diseases such as osteoarthritis. Doppelherz Joint Complex Licks for cats contain valuable essential fatty acids from salmon oil, green-lipped mussel, chondroitin and glucosamine, rosehip as well as vitamin E, methionine and manganese.
- Salmon oil is a high-quality supplier of valuable omega-3 fatty acids. It contains the essential fatty acids EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) in particularly high concentrations - they help to counteract inflammatory processes in joint diseases.
- Green-lipped mussel power supports with GAG (glycosaminoglycans) and special omega-3 fatty acids.
- The 100 % natural rosehip contains the antioxidants beta-carotene, vitamin E as well as vitamin C, which contributes to collagen formation and thus supports the joints.
- The antioxidants vitamin E and manganese as well as the amino acid methionine support the joint metabolism in cats with osteoarthritis.
- Glucosamine and chondroitin are the body's own building blocks of cartilage tissue. They promote the maintenance of healthy and elastic joint surfaces.

Green-lipped mussel
The green-lipped mussel (Perna canaliculus) from the coasts of New Zealand was already used centuries ago by the Maori as a food source. Scientific studies revealed a connection between the consumption of the mussel and the very good joint health of this indigenous people. Today, green-lipped mussel powder is also successfully used for animals: In addition to important glycosaminoglycans (GAG), the meat of the green-lipped mussel also contains omega-3 fatty acids and thus provides important substances for supporting the joints.
The body's own joint building blocks: glucosamine and chondroitin
As building blocks of healthy articular cartilage, glucosamine and chondroitin ensure, quite literally, smooth joint function. Joint problems can lead to changes in cartilage composition or cartilage damage. The body therefore needs these building blocks to maintain and build up a functional cartilage layer.
Rosehip - naturally good for joints
The rosehip is a widespread fruit in Central Europe. Its pulp is valued as a traditional herbal remedy and food. Besides beta-carotene and vitamin E, rose hips also provide vitamin C, which contributes to collagen formation and thus supports the joints. All these ingredients also serve as antioxidants for cell protection.
