grompz 706 Posted August 29, 2017 Report Share Posted August 29, 2017 any of you guys used this product on your dogs, to aid joints and mobility movement,heard various good comments from horse owners, and humans who swear it helps them,been thinking about giving it a try, it is quite costly at £34 for 227 gms,but it seems to have been on the market for a few years,be intrested to hear from any greyhound men that have used it with good results as it is targeted at them,atb.

sandymere 8,263 Posted August 29, 2017 Report Share Posted August 29, 2017 (edited) The majority of ingredients are pretty pointless, just give the dogs some meat and bones and it will get lots of them without the price. Having said that Hyaluronic acid may give some benefit https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4729158 [/spoiler] although all very small studies and strangely none of the more negative studies that have been undertaken are mentioned https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22868835 which make me somewhat doubtful of the validity of this piece. Perhaps a more specific form, source may be a better bet, especially as the ingredient list for this product does not contain any mention of it https://www.equestriansupplements.co.uk/greyhound-cortaflex-ha-227gm-equine-america.html Bottom line you could buy some Hyaluronic tablets or just give the dog a bone.

trigger2 3,469 Posted August 29, 2017 Report Share Posted August 29, 2017 i know a few people who have taken it there selves and swear by it. by all accounts its some good stuff. i believe it was originally made for race horses and was that successfull they made other forms for humans and dogs. i currently take some stuff called moveit its the same as cortaflex and that seems to have helped me, i do a fare amount of running.
