JANUARY-FEBRUARY 2001

Do you sometimes feel as tough you don’t know all the answers to a problem? Well, let me tell that it just happened to me recently. One of my daughters has a beautiful female golden named Kelly which unfortunately suffers from hip dysplasia. It is a hip development anomaly that eventually leads to osteoarthrosis. Dogs affected by this condition suffer greatly. They have great difficulty getting up, climbing stairs, and their back legs limp more or less severely. The other day, as I was watching the television, the actor Luc Picard was on a t.v. show on animals. He was sharing how he had resolved his dog’s hip dysplasia with glucosamine sulfate. Why hadn’t I thought of giving Arthrex to that poor dog? It would have reduced it’s sufferings. Changing the subject, the Contact offers you in its chronicle “What’s new?” an excellent article on food supplements and you will find in “My reference” pertinent information and numerous recommendations for Alzheimer’s disease. All subjects are covered starting from diet to plants recommended and medication commonly prescribed (as well as their side effects). In “The essential”, we share with you our new adhesion policy and new services for 2001. Finally, you will find in “New products” a brief description of our three new products. Good reading to all Jacqueline B.Blouin
