Total Tendon Repair

My 9 year old border collie tore his rear, right Achilles tendon (gastrocnemius) while playing soccer. It was completely ruptured and separated from the bone according to multiple vets and surgeons and the only option was complete reconstructive surgery which had a high likelihood of doing damage to one or both of his knees from not being able to use his leg for a full 6+ month recovery if the surgery went well and they could drill a wire through his bones to reattach the tendon. He couldn't put weight on it at all (shown in photo it was his birthday when it happened). After doing research on how large animals that you can't really make lay down for 6 months heal, I came across a lot of horse products and this one in particular. I researched how the collagen helps cell regrowth and healing as well as tendon support and reducing inflammation (as his tendon was completely dangling off the to side and swollen like a golf ball in his hind leg). I kept him on mostly bed rest for a few weeks (still walking stairs to go potty) and in a brace for a few hours a day for a few weeks. I mixed this powder with water in his food once a day, microdosing from horse size to dog size, and within weeks I really saw a difference in his tendon (that was said to be impossible to repair). With a 45 pound border collie one tub of this lasted me about 6 months and within 6 months his tendon is completely straight again, flexible, and has grown back to the bone and he can apply full pressure with the elasticity to have the bend in his foot again. Though I did repurchase another tub as maintenance. He is stepping with full pressure again, can go on walks, run, play, all of the things the vets said he could never do in his lifetime again even with surgery. Obviously use caution as this product is intended for horse use, but please consider your options and amazing products like this one before choosing dangerous, damaging, painful surgeries especially for elderly animals where it could just cause so many more issues. I would even suggest using this as maintenance for animals getting older as a support to maintain elasticity and health of the tendons and muscles. The vets were very shocked and in disbelief that we were able to rehabilitate his leg seemingly back to normal and faster than the heal time for the surgery theh were saying was the only option. I cannot express how grateful I am and I cannot advocate for this product enough! Thank you so much!

Great product

A friend put me on to this supplement about a month ago, and I figured—why not? My knees already sounded like bubble wrap. I play soccer and hadn’t been able to kick with my right leg in forever because of joint pain and fluid buildup. I started taking just 1/4 tablespoon in my drink daily. Fast forward a month—during a recent tournament, I actually kicked with my right leg and my knee didn’t swell up at all! No pain, no puffiness, no regret. Whatever’s in this stuff, it’s working. My knees are finally acting like they belong to someone under 80 😂

This product works extremely well for my horses. I continually give this to my horse w tendon issues.

My horse was diagnosed with an annular ligament desmitis injury in November. He was treated by a sports med specialist. Dr felt it was an older injury that hit a breaking point. I started him on total tendon repair in November, did a couple rounds of shockwave, some at home therapies like red light, and microcurrent, and I have to say he was cleared to start a program end of March. That’s less than 5 months of down time, and by first week in may, his ligament scanned completely healed. No scar tissue, no effusion. I strongly believe this supplement helped him form healthy, elastic , new fibers without scarring. A combination of a good supplement and other therapies, and this horse is feeling better than ever!

This dissolves easily in liquid. I put it in my cereal with no bad taste. I started out with 1 teaspoon to start with no side effects. I have had surgery 2 times on my ankle that i broke and the doc said i may have to have reconscutive surgery on my tendon that tore away from my foot. He put in screws to my bone and sewed my tendon and said my body would have to heal itself. So i wanted a little extra help and i saw this on amazon and connected horses, tendons, and the repair i needed. The product clearly says not for human consumption so use at your own risk.

It seems to be helping my dog with some discomfort he's been having. i put a little in his food, he doesn't smell or taste it.

I had a complete achilles tendon rupture on jan 1st 2021. Doctor recommended surgery but i didnt want to go that route (cost/risk of complications).I got into a boot with wedges, started taking this and after a month or so started doing some at home stretches and excersizes with my foot. 3 months Later id say im about 90% recovered. My tendon feels good only thing left is to work on stretching it because it is tight from being in the boot. I am 6'1 210 lbs and was taking about 1/4 scoop every evening (mixing it into yogurt or a drink) with no side effects. This does say not for humans so use at your own risk.
