KynoSil is a proprietary joint health complex combining glucosamine hydrochloride, methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), and colloidal silica in a single, precisely formulated ingredient — delivering three complementary joint and connective tissue actives in a stabilised, bioavailable form designed specifically for companion animal supplementation.
Rather than simply combining these ingredients mechanically, KynoSil presents them as a co-processed functional complex. Glucosamine HCl provides the building blocks for glycosaminoglycan synthesis; MSM provides bioavailable organic sulphur for connective tissue cross-linking and antioxidant pathway support; and colloidal silica provides silicon, a trace mineral increasingly recognised for its role in connective tissue and bone health.
A co-processed complex of three connective tissue actives — glucosamine HCl for cartilage matrix synthesis, MSM for structural sulphur and antioxidant support, and colloidal silica for silicon provision — working through complementary mechanisms to support joint, cartilage, and connective tissue health in dogs.
Glucosamine HCl provides glucosamine, a key substrate for the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans including hyaluronic acid and chondroitin sulphate — the building blocks of cartilage extracellular matrix. The HCl salt form offers high purity and consistent bioavailability.
MSM provides organic sulphur that contributes to collagen cross-linking and the structural integrity of connective tissue, as well as to the synthesis of glutathione, the body’s primary endogenous antioxidant — protecting joint and other tissues from oxidative damage.
Colloidal silica provides silicon in a finely dispersed form with high surface area and bioavailability. Silicon is a structural component of glycosaminoglycans and collagen, and plays a role in bone mineralisation and the formation of connective tissue, contributing to joint and skeletal health.
By delivering these three actives as a combined complex, KynoSil supports multiple stages of joint tissue maintenance — from the availability of cartilage matrix precursors, through the structural reinforcement of connective tissue, to the protection of joint cells from oxidative stress.
Science Informed Reasons to Include This Ingredient in Your Dog’s Diet:
Cartilage Matrix Precursor Supply — glucosamine HCl in KynoSil provides the primary substrate for glycosaminoglycan biosynthesis, supporting the production and maintenance of cartilage matrix components including aggrecan and hyaluronic acid.
Connective Tissue Structural Support — organic sulphur from MSM contributes to the cross-linking of collagen and other structural proteins in cartilage, tendons, and ligaments, supporting the mechanical integrity of the connective tissue throughout the musculoskeletal system.
Silicon for Collagen and Glycosaminoglycan Formation — silicon is a structural component of the proteoglycan and collagen networks in connective tissue. Colloidal silica provides silicon in a bioavailable dispersed form, contributing to the formation and maintenance of these structural networks.
Antioxidant Pathway Support — sulphur from MSM supports glutathione synthesis, contributing to the protection of chondrocytes and other joint tissue cells from oxidative damage associated with inflammation and normal metabolic activity.
Bone Mineralisation Contribution — silicon has a documented role in bone matrix formation and mineralisation. By providing silicon alongside glucosamine, KynoSil offers support that extends from cartilage to the underlying bone structure.
Three Complementary Mechanisms in One Ingredient — glucosamine, MSM, and silicon each act through distinct but interrelated mechanisms, providing broader coverage of joint tissue maintenance needs than any single ingredient would achieve alone.
Stabilised Co-Processed Form — KynoSil’s co-processed format provides a stabilised, consistent delivery of all three actives, supporting reliable bioavailability and precise dosing within the supplement matrix.
Foundation for the Bounce Joint Health Stack — within the Bounce formulation, KynoSil provides the core connective tissue building block layer upon which chondroitin sulphate, hyaluronic acid, ASU, boswellia, and the anti-inflammatory botanicals build — addressing joint health through structural, enzymatic, inflammatory, and antioxidant mechanisms simultaneously.
