What is Hyaluronic Acid?

Hyaluronic acid is a special mucopolysaccharide occurring naturally throughout the body. It’s function in the body is, amongst other things, to bind water and lubricate movable parts of the body, such as joints and muscles. It is one of the most heavily researched substances in medicine today with many clinical trials mostly in the fields of orthopedics and eye surgery.

Why Choose Hyaflex™?

HIGH QUALITY – The hyaluronic acid in Hyaflex™ is one of the purest and highest in molecular weight of any oral hyaluronic acid product on the market today. Higher molecular weight can hold more water, has better lubrication properties and better shock absorbing properties than low molecular weight hyaluronic acid.

Hyaluronic acid is used in humans and horses, so it's only natural
to bring these benefits to man's best friend!

EASY TO ADMINISTER - Hyaflex™ is a tasteless liquid that your pet won’t spit out or sort from its food, unlike competitive joint products!

Directions for use: 30-60 servings per bottle

Benefits of Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic acid, (HA) exists naturally in all living organisms in the body, it is found in greatest concentrations in the synovial fluid of joints for lubrication, the vitreous humor (fluid) of the eye, and most abundantly in the skin.

HA plays an important role in tissue hydration, lubrication and cellular function, and is able to hold more water than any other natural substance. It's unmatched hydrating properties result in increased smoothness, softening and decreased wrinkles.

The anti-aging formula for
overall joint and skin health

HA is a  special mucopolysacharide that is the normal lubricant in small animals' joints. When present in a joint, even a joint with minimal or no cartilage, it can provide a  cushion effect.  As your pet’s body ages, it produces less and less HA.  The joints may become stiff; the skin dry and wrinkled.

 

 

Hyaluronic acid replacement, referred to as viscosupplementation, is done by injecting HA directly into the affected joints.  Although successful, it is very expensive, and yet only effective in the areas injected.  Now, the high molecular weight HA found in HyaFlex ™, a convenient oral solution, presents an easier and far more affordable way to replace the HA that your pet has lost. It also provides benefits to their entire body!  Read our testimonials to see for yourself. Pets are experiencing results noticeable in a short period of time,  plus a variety of beneficial effects --- from softer coat, to clearer and healthy eyes, even anti-aging properties.

Hyaluronic acid (HA) was first used commercially in 1942 when Endre Balazs applied for a patent to use it as a substitute for egg white in bakery products. He went on to become the leading expert on HA, and made the majority of discoveries concerning HA during the next 50 years.

In the last two decades, the uses of hyaluronic acid have been extended to a number of areas, including orthopedics, use in fertility clinics, and tissue augmentation. In the past few years, biotechnology has been used to develop hyaluronic acid derivatives with tailor-made molecular sizes, which will further increase the potential applications of this remarkable molecule.

 

HyaFlex Testimonials

 

"My dog Toby will be 14 years old this summer. We never thought he'd make it through this last year because of his hip dysplasia. I started Hyaflex as recommended by our vet. After a month he was doing so much better walking and now is much more alert and enjoying life again. We had used Flex \Free and Cosequin before but nothing has helped like Hyaflex.

Thank you for you product!"

- R. Jones

"You sent me samples to try and I have sent the following endorsement to the GSD Chatline - some 1500 of the TOP GSD Breeders in the US.  Thank you for this wonderful product.

I was recently approached by a company called Hyaflex to test about their product for older dogs.  The compound has "Hyaluronic" acid, the fluid that is in the joints of animals.  I asked him to send me some samples to try on two old dogs, on 11 and the other almost 12.  The 11 year old was to the point of almost not walking and doing so only when he really had to "go".

The 12 year old was stiff, but still doing pretty good.  I have to say, I am truly impressed with this product.  The 11 year old, after a week,  was "sneaking" around the kennel at night to investigate - he was not crated as he could not get in and out of one.  The 12 year old has turned into a puppy - to the point that she has become a bit obnoxious - running and barking at the other dogs.  Needless to say, I will be placing an order for more of this product today.

No, I don't sell it, it is the first thing I have found to "really help the oldies".  Our almost 12 year old is none other than the #2 highest living ROM Bitch, Silverhill's Sumthin Special,
OFA, ROM.  I hope it keeps her active the rest of her life."

- Mary

"My buddy, Snickers, is 10 years old, and he was starting to have some trouble jumping in the car to go for a run, and getting up on the couch for a good petting.  I have been using Hyaflex on his food daily for about a month and now he is jumping right up, and his hips don't seem to be bothering him at all! Thanks, Hyaflex, for putting the spring back in Snicker's step.  His coat seems glossier, too."

Thanks to Hya-Flex™, Rudy is back to his old self running and chasing rabbits and squirrels and bringing me his favorite toys to play fetch with.  It became evident after about three days that his activity and demeanor had improved.  I wish I'd known last year that this product was available - it's so easy to use.

- Susan H.

We tried the products on 12 dogs that varied in size from 10 to 86 pounds.  All the patients that were in this limited study were dogs that had radiographic verficiation, physical signs and symptoms of hip dysplasia or osteoarthritis.  All the patients’s activity levels were increased following administration of the product.  Six out of 12 showed excellent activity levels within 3 days of administration of HyaFlex.  Four out of 12 patients showed dramatic levels of jumping ability; two out of 12 showed moderate levels of activity after receiving HyaFlex.

 

Based on this limited study, I would conclude that in my professional opinion, HyaFlex is a product that I would recommend to my clients for use in their pets with hip dysplasia and/or osteoarthritis. In fact,  I’m afraid to take my own dogs off HyaFlex!

Sincerely,

William C. Jones D.V.M
