The following are excerpts from Zuke's FAQ on Glucosamine:
- "What is Glucosamine?
- Glucosamine HCl is an integral building block of joints. Glucosamine is composed of glucose and the amino acid glutamine. Glucosamine is a substance that the body uses to build up cartilage and keep joints hydrated and flexible. Glucosamine HCl provides the raw material your dog's body needs to produce glycosaminoglycans, which are required to produce healty new cartilage.
- How does glucosamine help canine arthritis and hip displasia?
- Glucosamine stimulates cartilage cells (chondrocytes) to synthesize glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans which in combination with collagen, and water make up the large part of cartilage. Glucosamine also helps retain water in the joints, this acts like a lubricant which keeps bones floating in the joint without actually making contact. Taking extra Glucosamine HCl helps your dog's body restore cartilage production and results in more flexible, nourished joints. Your dog will notice the difference. When taken in combination with an additive like Chondroitin, the effects can be remarkable!"

| Per Zuke's Feeding Guidelines: "Feed your dog Zuke's Hip Action morsels according to the table below. A good idea is to supplement their meal(s) with a the proper Hip Action dose. Supplementing your dogs diet regularly with Hip Action is important because the Chondroitin and Glucosamine HCl in Hip Action condition your dog's hips and joints. Zuke's Hip
Action isn't a 'quick fix' for hip displasia and joint problems, but if
you use it everyday you will see results.
Please remember that the increase in
comfort and mobility will be incremental over time. Results are
usually not seen until after at least 3 weeks of daily treatment. In most cases the effects will be noticeable after 4-6 weeks."
