PhyCox®
Is a naturally derived extract of blue-green algae that is grown in the USA
Offers joint health support
Relieves joint discomfort
Provides scientifically demonstrated health benefits, including*
1. Anti-inflammatory activity
2. Antioxidant activity
3. Improves joint mobility
PhyCox® is a naturally derived extract of wild blue-green algae grown in the United States. Blue-green algae are a rich source of phytonutrients including Phycocyanin, a biliprotein that has scientifically demonstrated health benefits. They PhyCox® patented process produces a highly concentrated source of Phycocyanin, offering strong joint support and relief of discomfort in two ways:
1. Proven Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) Inhibition: Numerous studies demonstrate the high concentrations of Phycocyanin found in PhyCox® specifically inhibit the COX-2 enzyme, blocking the synthesis of inflammatory eicosanoids, the natural mediators of imflammation in the body.
2. Dynamic Antioxidant: Phycocyanin has powerful free radical scavenging properties. It can help enhance the body's defense against the degradative effects of free radicals that cause cellular damage and play a role in a host of degenerative conditions in dogs.
Turmeric
Turmeric is a natural botanical extract from the roots of the Curcuma longa plant with well-researched health benefits. Due to its ability to inhibit leukotriene biosynthesis and modify prostaglandin production, Tumeric has demonstrated antiinflammatory and antioxidant capabilities.
Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM)
MSM provides dietary sulfur that aids in the efficient function of cellular membranes and supports healthy muscles and joints by reducing inflammation.
Omge-3 Fatty Acids
Omega-3 Fatty Acids help reduce inflammation by altering the production of inflammatory mediators and support joint health by inhibiting enzymes involved in cartilage matrix destruction.- Promotes healthy coat condition
JOINT SUPPORT
The Phycox®-EQ formula offers a joint support matrix for healthy synovial maintenance as wells as bone and muscle support.
Glucosamine HCI
As a precusor for glycominoglycans, glucaosamine supports joint health by stimulating GAG production. Glucosamine rduces the activity of inflammatory mediators and damaging anzymes that can degrade cartilage.
Boron
Normal bone metabolism requires the mineral Boron. Boron supplementation increases bone strength and the mineral content of the bone organic matrix.
Creatine Monohydrate
Creatine is a significat amino acid found in skeletal muscle and it plays a role in muscular energy and may have value in improving muscle strength enabling the horses to feel more energetic.
Antioxidants
The PhyCox® formula also contains a special blend of antioxidants to complement the potent protection from oxidative damage offered by Phycocyanin and Tumeric.
Alpha Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E)
Alpha Lipoic Acid
Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C)
Citrus Bioflavonoids
Grape Seed Extract

Arthritis is a painful condition
There are two major forms of arthritis. Rheumatoid arthritis is a common form of arthritis which involves inflammation of the jonts, swelling, pain, and loss of function. The primary sympton of rheumatoid arthritis is inflammation of the synovial membrane. The membrane thickens and synovial fluid accumulates. The resulting pressure causes pain and tenderness.
The most common form of arthritis, osteoarthritis, is a degenerative joint disease that is far more common than rheumatoid arthritis. It is characterized by the deterioration of articular cartilage and the formation of new bone in the subchondral areas and at the margins of the joint. The cartilage slowly degenerates and as the bone ends become exposed, small bumps of new osseous tissue are deposited on them. These bumps decrease the space in the bone cavity and restrict joint movement.
Phycocyanin
It has been discovered that a blue-green algae extract and, more particularly, phycocyanin functions as a COX-2 inhibitor that is effective in treating arthritis and other inflammatory conditions in animals. The use of phycocyanin is now patented and effective in reducing inflammation in animals through its ability to selectively inhibit the COX-2 enzyme.
PhyCox® has all the joint support benefits od many commonly used products, plus scientific research has shown Phycox® to be effective at reducing pain and inflammation in dogs.

Review for PhyCox Soft Chews (120 Soft Chews)
June 21, 2014
I have had my canine on this product for the last 3-4 years and it has made a difference. There have been times that I have run out and my canine has had more joint difficulties when not taking Phycox. I would highly recommend this product.

works well
June 18, 2014
Our dog was born with hip problems. At a year old he was limping. Our vet recommended PhyCox Soft Chews. Our dog is now six and running all over the place. Rarely, the dog will limp. So far this product has helped him to lead an active life. It was expensive at the vet's office so I was glad to find Entirely Pets.

Amazing Results
June 9, 2014
After a friend recommended PhyCox Soft Chews for my 10 year old Lab with arthritis, the results were pretty amazing. While she is still over weight, she is walking better than she ever did and it's not so hard for her to get up and down. I tried other "chews" but they didn't have the same results so I'm sold on PhyCox Soft Chews.

Seems to work great, dogs love the taste
May 23, 2014
Give this to all three of our senior dachshunds. They love the taste and can't wait to get their "nummy" every morning after they come in from their morning duties. If they seem extra sore (since they are ages 13, 16 and 18 in human years), we can give them an extra half at night and not worrie we are over doing it. Great stuff and the price here is one of, if not the, best on the internet.

May 20, 2014
Working very well. Rufus, who is 13 yrs old, is getting along quite well. Much more energy and back to playing. I didn't give it 5 stars for two reasons: 1) he doesn't like the taste so I have to hide them in his food and 2) he has only been taking them for about a month so I have not had a chance to see what the full beneficial effects may be.

Awesome Product with Great Results
May 14, 2014
2 years ago my GSD was diagnosed with hip dysplasia and was in serious discomfort. The vet prescribed pain meds, anti-inflammatory drugs as well as a recommendation for a TPO hip replacement surgery. Due to her physical drive, which is high, I chose not to do the surgery because it would hinder her quality of life, so instead we treat with hydro therapy, lasers and medications including the Phycox which has ingredients that help reduce her pain and inflammation. She has had significant improvement on the Phycox even after taking her off the prescription anti-inflammatory meds she has maintained her same flexibility and pain management. I am very happy with this product and how my dog has reacted to it.

Keeping Whopper Active
April 25, 2014
Since ACL repair a few years ago, I have been using Phycox soft chews. My dog has seldom needed to take his prescribed rimadyl and has remained happy and active. He loves his soft chew which is crumbled into his dry food everyday. Whopper says, "Woof woof" which is thank you for keeping him healthy.

As my dogs aged, my Vet recommended Phycox to keep their joints flexible. One of my Standard Schnauzers died last year at 15 1/2 years old - she had no trouble walking and was active up until the last 6 months. One of my guys is now almost 14 and the other is 10 years old. I believe the Phycox has been beneficial for both of them.

I give my dog two chews along with his night time cookie. He is a 70 pound lab mix, almost 11 years old and has no joint pain. Initially, he did not like them but after a while I tried them again and he loves them and has had them for several years now. I will begin giving them to my younger dog as well.

My Lab has been treated by the vet for arthritis in his mid-back and rear joints. I asked the vet if there was a supplement he recommended and Phycox soft chews was his recommendation. After initially buying from the vet I found the same product at Entirely Pets for half the cost. I occasionally give my dog a vet supplied pain medication (Rimadyl) if he has been running a lot, but have not had to have him to the vet for another shot or laser treatment. I believe the Phycox helps my dog.

Miracle Supplement
February 4, 2014
My 11 year old dog tore her ACL a year and a half ago. A vet told me to put her on Phycox giving her 1/2 chew each day. She runs with the best of them now! You would never know there was anything wrong with her leg.
I also put my son's chocolate lab on them after he tore his second ACL. No surgery - just Phycox and he is fine.
I have recommended Phycox to all of my friends who have older dogs or dogs with joint injuries. I think it works miracles.
The only complaint I have is that the container I ordered two times ago had very crumbly chews making is almost impossible to cut in half. I couldn't even press them together. All of my other shipments have been moist and fresh.
I really believe in this product and order 2 containers at a time for both of the dogs mentioned above.
