What you may not know about pet supplements
and what makes Longlife's shark cartilage formula more effective
Although pet supplements have become very popular in the last few years, many people do not realize that they are typically manufactured for humans — not pets.
Because we digest food relatively fast, human supplements are ground to a fine powder, making it easier for our stomachs to absorb the active ingredients. However, the digestive process of dogs and cats is very different. They don't chew their food; they swallow it. Since the food reaches their stomach in fairly large pieces, it takes longer for them to digest it and absorb the vitamins and minerals. When a pet is given a supplement manufactured for humans, it usually doesn't stay in the pet’s system long enough for the ingredients to be fully absorbed.

Better absorption means a more effective treatment for your pet
What dogs and cats need is a high-quality supplement designed specifically
for their digestive tracts. That's the idea behind Longlife
Pet Supplements.
While they are safe enough for human consumption, they’re designed to permit
maximum absorption of such anti-inflammatory natural ingredients as mucopolysaccharides
and the chondroitin sulfates A, B, and C, which are vital for the health of your
pet's cartilage, connective tissue, and tendons.
