Hi! What about COSEQUIN glucosamine? On the bottle it says : Glucosamine hydrochloride 600 mg Sodium Chondroitin Sulfate (derived from bovine cartilage) 300 mg MSM 250 mg Manganese Abscorbate 3 mg Is this a good product ???

[@mikahundin]

The speaker discusses the importance of glucosamine for dogs with arthritis or joint pain, emphasizing that aging dogs produce less glucosamine naturally, leading to joint issues. They highlight green lipped mussels as the top food-based source of glucosamine due to their high content of glucosamine and chondroitin. Green lipped mussels also provide anti-inflammatory benefits without harming the liver and gut lining. The speaker advises using green lipped mussels with at least 5% fat and provides a recommended dosage of 400mg for every 25 pounds of weight. The speaker also mentions eggshell membrane (NEM) as another effective source of glucosamine, containing joint-friendly proteins like chondroitin and hyaluronic acid. They recommend a dosage of 150mg per 25 pounds of weight, with a higher initial dose for the first 10 days. Additionally, the speaker suggests incorporating certain foods rich in glucosamine into a dog's diet, such as bone broth and animal joints containing bone and cartilage. However, they caution against feeding bones with skin, as it is high in pro-inflammatory omega-6 fats, which can exacerbate inflammation. Overall, the speaker provides comprehensive information on natural sources of glucosamine for dogs and encourages viewers to ask questions about natural supplements. They conclude by asking viewers to like, share, and spread the word about the video.

Several viewers inquire about specific brands of green lipped mussel supplements for their dogs. They seek recommendations for reputable brands that offer quality products. However, specific brand names are not mentioned in the comments provided. Instead, viewers express interest in finding supplements made from whole freeze-dried green lipped mussels, emphasizing the importance of sourcing high-quality products for their pets' joint health. Therefore, while viewers seek guidance on brand recommendations, the comments do not specify particular brands of green lipped mussel supplements.

Hi! Thank you for this! May i share my advice for arthritis in dogs? We have 3 dogs with arthritis and we've been using Antinol for the past couple fo years and its made such an amazing difference. Changed our dog's lives! would highly recommend to any pet owners with pets suffering from arthritis.

[@create-hx7pe]

Are your dogs seniors? And where do you buy it from?

[@JC83JC]

I'm curious about where to buy as well.

[@go2greenland]

Thank you for this life changing info! 💖🤯 really, this changed my life!! About how many eggs do I need in order to get the 125mg? Better question, about how many milligrams are in one egg? Thank you again! 🐾

[@talr.4202]

Hi Dana, great video. My 8 y/o mutt have been pausing before the stairs after our strolls, so I'm suspecting the beginning of arthritis. I'm thinking of using chicken bones/legs (no skin) as a source of glucosamine since from your recommendations it's the most available here. I read that using a crockpot to slow cook the chicken would make it safe for her to eat the bones as well. My questions are: 1. Is that a good idea in general? 2. Would it be ok to cook a full pot, deep freeze most of it and heat a portion in the microwave every day? 3. Can you recommend a daily portion size (even a ballpark estimate would be great)? she is about 60 lbs. Her usual food is senior super premium kibble and an omelette from 2 chicken eggs every other day + a bit of treats. Thanks!

[@GENIUSDurdySa]

Your video is very interesting but you dont let us know a product with green lipped mussel why ??😢please help us 🙏

Hi, nice video, thankyou. 8 have a question…..if you need to take off poultry skin because of omega 6, are the dried chicken feet ok…..or are they high in omega 6 as well? Thankyou very much.

[@jeanmedina3765]

How about if your dog is less than 25 pounds how much did you give?

[@elmagiza]

I think that green lipped mussel is frequent the reason for liquid or very soft poop.

[@Shiryone]

Can you please tell me how quickly I should see improvement with pain/mobility if I start giving my dog Four Leaf Rover's Green Eggs ?

[@Ademirb123]

I use chicken feet to feed my dog with hip and joint problems and it works like magic. You'll have to cook it for many hours though. In another language "Off the bone"

[@Lucky-wt6fg]

Are the dried ones ok?

[@moonflwrmama8184]

Can dogs have a shellfish allergy to the green lipped mussels?

[@janicem4384]

Hi Dana, We switched our 11 year old Golden retriever to an all raw diet recipe that we saw from you a couple of years ago. It calls for chicken necks, which we use. Would chicken necks contain much omega 6? Our Golden has stiff joints and we now have her on the Four Leaf Rover Hip and joint(just started it). thanks

[@pushyreyes3651]

My Boston Terrier loves to run and jump. How early or at what age can we start giving her glucosamine?

[@keshnimanickchand182]

Will adding chia to a dog's diet to help with joint pains be recommended?

[@DogsNaturallyMagazineDNM]

Green lipped mussels are high in anti-inflammatory fats, so that might be a better option to help with joint pain. NEM eggshell membrane has also been studied and it shows that it can reduce joint pain within 7-10 days.

Hi Dana! We have a 3 year old yellow lab and recently found out that she is allergic to chicken. We have been giving her pure mobility max strength joint support but the first ingredient is natural chicken flavor. Do you recommend ny natural joint support that does not contain chicken?

[@tonlag123]

Hi Dana, Thanks for excellent info! Have a 9 year old malteese who is starting to have joint problems I feed him 1 or 2 dried greenlipped muscles (Suggested to grow in pristine New Zealand waters) per day and also a small bit (About 2 inch of small diameter) of shark cartlidge Also making some gelatine treats for him and give him some bone broth (small amount) made from lambs bones Any comments to improve on this and so extend his "Quality of Life"? He also gets a monthly Synovan injection!

[@DogsNaturallyMagazineDNM]

Beef trachea, raw, dehydrated or freeze dried, would be a great chew to add in to help with joint problems. Adding NEM eggshell membrane would also help with pain and inflammation, it's also rich in chondroitin sulfate, hyaluronic acid and collagen.

[@carolynwowk1522]

So interesting, I'm trying to learn as much as I can as our dog is almost ten years old and has been healthy but is starting to have knee pain not sure yet what it is.

[@lindseykettledon7989]

Hi Dana! Thank you for the great information. Our beautiful 8 year old golden retriever is just starting to show signs of stiffness in her back legs. Just scheduled x-rays for her hips and knees. She has been taking Green Eggs from Four Leaf Rover for just over a year now. She is 80lbs and we increased her dosage to 1 1/4 tsp daily. ( suggested serving for up to 100 lbs) should we increase this amount. Thank you for your time

[@DogsNaturallyMagazineDNM]

You could try giving her 1 1/2 teaspoons and see how that helps🙂

Thanks for this Dana, very educational indeed. Are gizzards a good source of glucosamine too? I also have a question about decaf green tea. I read in one of your newsletters that they are safe and healthy for dogs. The one I bought contains 10mg of caffeine per tea bag. Though it is labelled as decaffeinated. Will 10mg of caffeine harm my dog? I haven't tried giving it to him though. Thanks for all your help!

[@DogsNaturallyMagazineDNM]

Gizzards are not a good source of glucosamine. I don't love green tea for dogs, it does make me nervous. What are you using it for? Many of the polyphenols found in green tea are also found in fruit.

[@MrCutty07]

Great watch Dana, thanks! One thing you missed is letting people know to make sure the GLM supplements they buy are from “whole freeze dried” GLM as a lot of the GLM supplements out there come from GLM that has already had the oil extracted, so a lot of the fatty acids and health benefits are gone. And what about Deer Velvet as a natural source or aminos? Cheers!

[@DogsNaturallyMagazineDNM]

I don't think deer velvet can be ethically harvested so that's a hard stop for me personally. - Dana

You could replace pig ears with beef trachea.

[@KarenmitchellANI]

Can I give cooked green lipped mussels, how many?... What are your thoughts on turmeric golden paste for joints, I'm hesitant to offering it too often because of the studies done on Iron deficiency anemia. I start when they're pups... raw meaty bones which contain cartilage I think is the best natural support for bones. My dogs love stuffed dehydrated, or raw trachea as a lovely treat. Also the dog needs to be absorbing nutrients, if it has digestive imbalances, it won't be absorbing all nutrients from their diet. Gut microbiome is important. Bone broth is great for the gut too

[@DogsNaturallyMagazineDNM]

Bone broth can be high in lead and glyphosate, so be careful. If you cooke the GLM, you will destroy the fatty acids and phospholipids that are a large part of their benefits. As for golden paste, I do question the bioavailability - I would opt for a natural product that is water soluble.

Where can you buy nem eggshell membrane in Canada

Hi Dana, I have a miniture Shar Pei that was diagnosed with FSF after several episodes. The green lipped mussels, being high in protein, can this be dangerous for her?

Would deer trachea have similar benefits? Either raw or roasted.

Question: if im going to give my dog NEM, do i just put egg shell in her food bowl? Do i separate the membrane from the shell and give just the membrane? Can she get salmonella from that?

You can peel eggshell membrane off the inside of an eggshell yourself. But a supplement is a much easier way to give your dog NEM®.😊

Glucosamine, green lipped mussel, ashwagandha, MSM, Bromelain , Olive tree, salmon oil..........my dogs daily supplements

[@luxmunk]

I’m interested in this topic as I have a 13 year old pug with decreasing mobility. I read the following so now I need to educate myself on the source location of the mussels that I buy: Other potential negative impacts include competition with the oyster fishery, displacement of native mussels, and carriers of diseases and parasites harmful to native species. In addition to parasites and diseases, the green-lipped mussels can accumulate toxic substances when they grow in polluted waters, which wen consumed can cause Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning.

[@DogsNaturallyMagazineDNM]

Green lipped mussels ARE native to New Zealand. The mussels we purchase are thoroughly tested for heavy metals and toxins.

[@warrenshort2493]

OK so where do I get the muscles at so I can get glucosamine in my dog

[@DogsNaturallyMagazineDNM]

You may be able to find them in the seafood section at your local grocery store.

[@DogsNaturallyMagazineDNM]

You can buy Green Lipped Mussels online or get them at your grocery store. You can also find supplements with them in it.

[@ACDSuperDog]

I would think that pasture-reared pork skin would be okay to feed as it is probably much lower in Omega-6. Any studies on this? What about truly free-range chicken that has minimal grain supplementation, too?

Yep! Pastured pork and poultry are quite good i their omega 6:3 ratio

How do you know if a green lipped mussel powder is made from mussels that are 5% fat?

[@DogsNaturallyMagazineDNM]

They should all come with an analysis - otherwise, don't buy them. The mussels we source for Green Eggs contain more than 5% fat. Here's a link to Green Eggs (and you can ask the customer service team for the analysis of the mussels too): thenaturaldogstore.com/products/four-leaf-rover-green-eggs

[@fernazkrgz3164]

Hello. Do I also need to remove the skin of chicken feet?

[@DogsNaturallyMagazineDNM]

The problem with chicken skin is the gross amount of omega-6 fats. Why not try an alternative source? The skin should be removed but it would be really hard! The alternative is to find pastured chickens that aren't fed grain.
