Joints & Movement
UC-II® Collagen
Undenatured type II collagen shown in canine studies to support joint comfort through immune-mediated pathways. Research in dogs demonstrates significant improvements in mobility and activity levels compared to placebo.
10mg per scoop

Gut Health & Digestion
Calsporin® Spore Probiotic
A spore-forming probiotic designed for stability and survivability through the digestive tract. Bacillus species have demonstrated benefits in improving nutrient digestibility and immune markers in dogs in controlled feeding studies.
1bn CFU per scoop

Gut Health & Digestion
Chicken Bone Broth
Naturally rich in collagen peptides, amino acids and minerals that support connective tissue and gut integrity. Bone-derived collagen has been shown to support joint structure and digestive health through glycine and proline content.
1,500mg per scoop

Joints & Movement
New Zealand Green-Lipped Mussel
A natural source of omega-3 fatty acids, glycosaminoglycans and bioactive lipids. Multiple veterinary trials show green-lipped mussel supplementation can improve joint flexibility and reduce discomfort in dogs with osteoarthritis.
250mg per scoop

Dental & Oral Health
Norwegian Kelp
A nutrient-rich cold-water seaweed traditionally valued for oral health. Research in dogs shows daily Ascophyllum nodosum helps keep plaque and tartar in check and supports fresher breath.
330mg per scoop

Immunity
Yeast Beta-Glucans
Natural fibres from the yeast cell wall, long studied for their role in priming the body's everyday immune defences. Research in dogs shows beta-glucans help support a healthy, responsive immune system.
150mg per scoop

Joints & Movement
Glucosamine
A structural precursor for glycosaminoglycans, essential components of cartilage. Clinical trials in dogs have shown glucosamine supplementation can improve mobility scores and reduce signs of osteoarthritis over time.
300mg per scoop

Joints & Movement
Chondroitin
A key cartilage component that helps maintain joint cushioning and resilience. Veterinary studies indicate that chondroitin, particularly when combined with glucosamine, supports joint comfort and mobility in dogs with degenerative joint changes.
150mg per scoop

Gut Health & Digestion
E. faecium Probiotic
A clinically researched probiotic strain widely used in canine nutrition to support digestive balance. Studies in dogs show E. faecium can improve stool quality and support recovery from gastrointestinal disturbance by stabilising gut microbial populations.
1bn CFU per scoop

Gut Health & Digestion
Whole Pumpkin
A natural source of soluble and insoluble fibre that supports stool regularity. Pumpkin has long been used in veterinary nutrition to help normalise digestive transit and maintain healthy bowel function.
815mg per scoop

Gut Health & Digestion
Chicory Root Prebiotic
A well-studied prebiotic fibre that selectively feeds beneficial gut bacteria. Research demonstrates that inulin increases short-chain fatty acid production, particularly butyrate, which supports intestinal barrier integrity and immune modulation.
250mg per scoop

Immunity
Milk Thistle (80% Silymarin)
Standardised for silymarin, a group of potent plant antioxidants that support the liver and the body's natural defences against oxidative stress. Research in dogs and other animals shows silymarin helps protect cells and support healthy liver function.
150mg per scoop

Energy & Metabolic Function
Biotin
An essential B vitamin and metabolic co-factor that supports healthy skin and a glossy coat. Research in dogs shows biotin helps maintain skin and coat condition, while its central role in fat and energy metabolism supports steady everyday vitality.
5mg per scoop

Immunity
Northern Bilberry
Rich in anthocyanins, powerful plant antioxidants that support vascular and cellular health. Research in animals shows bilberry compounds help combat oxidative stress and support visual and immune function.
100mg per scoop

Energy & Metabolic Function
Spirulina
A nutrient-dense microalgae rich in protein, antioxidants and phytonutrients. Research in dogs indicates spirulina supplementation may support immune response and reduce oxidative stress markers.
124mg per scoop

Joints & Movement
Algal Astaxanthin
A potent carotenoid antioxidant that helps neutralise oxidative stress. Emerging animal research suggests astaxanthin supports joint health and cellular protection by modulating inflammatory pathways.

Veterinary Reviews
Every benefit, reviewed by a vet
Every ingredient in MD1™ has been reviewed by a veterinary expert, who breaks down the science on the areas you care about.
Ingredients chosen for gut balance, liver health and cleaner teeth
“MD1 has 16 ingredients all designed to improve health. Milk Thistle is a powerful antioxidant which supports liver health by neutralising free radicals. Since the liver is the body’s energy centre your pets’ activity level is supported. Calsporin and Enterococcus faecium are probiotic components. These and Inulin, the Chicory root active ingredient along with Pumpkin all act to help balance the gut microbiome which can strengthen immune function and energy levels.”
MD1 has 16 ingredients all designed to improve health. Of note is Milk Thistle which is a powerful antioxidant which supports liver health by neutralising free radicals. Since the liver is the body’s energy centre your pets’ activity level is supported.
Calsporin and Enterococcus faecium are probiotic components. These and Inulin, the Chicory root active ingredient along with Pumpkin all act to help balance the gut microbiome which can strengthen immune function and energy levels. Inulin is a soluble diet fibre and it increases butyrate, a short chain fatty acid which can help the integrity of the Blood brain barrier.
The Norwegian kelp in MD1 has strong evidence that it will reduce existing plaque and reduce tartar accumulation over 2-3 months. The Kelp is absorbed in the gut and produces a bioactive compound in the saliva.
Clinically studied collagen for joint comfort and mobility
“As a vet, what I appreciate about MD1 is that joint care is built into the daily routine, using ingredients chosen with mobility in mind. UC-II® collagen stands out to me: canine studies have shown improvements in joint comfort and mobility, and it works differently to traditional glucosamine.”
As a vet, what I appreciate about MD1 is that joint care is built into the daily routine, using ingredients chosen with mobility in mind. UC-II® undenatured type II collagen stands out to me: canine studies have shown improvements in joint comfort and mobility, and it works through a different pathway to traditional glucosamine. Alongside it, green-lipped mussel adds a natural source of omega-3 fatty acids and glycosaminoglycans long associated with joint support. For owners, that means one simple daily step towards helping their dog stay comfortable doing the things they enjoy: the walks, the stairs, joining in with family life!
Multi-ingredient joint support for ageing dogs
“I appreciate MD1’s multi-ingredient approach to joint health, especially for ageing dogs that may experience joint discomfort and declining mobility. The inclusion of green-lipped mussel and UC-II collagen is particularly appealing, alongside glucosamine and chondroitin, as these ingredients may support joint structure and function through different mechanisms.”
Arthritis, particularly osteoarthritis (OA), is a common cause of chronic pain and reduced mobility in dogs. I appreciate MD1’s multi-ingredient approach to joint health, especially for ageing dogs that may experience joint discomfort and declining mobility. The inclusion of green-lipped mussel and UC-II collagen is particularly appealing, alongside glucosamine and chondroitin, as these ingredients may support joint structure and function through different mechanisms.
Omega-3 fatty acids may also help modulate inflammation and support joint comfort. I value the convenience of combining these ingredients in one daily supplement, making consistent joint support easier for owners to incorporate into their dogs’ daily routine.
Quality formula based on research without any filler ingredients
“The formulation is evidence-led and thoughtfully balanced rather than overloaded with unnecessary ingredients. From a clinical perspective, it gives me confidence knowing the team has clearly considered safety with quality and daily usability.”
As a Registered Vet Nurse, I spend a lot of time talking to owners about prevention rather than reaction. Many people only start thinking about supplements once their dog is already struggling with joints, digestion or skin issues. What stands out to me about MD1 is that it has been designed to support overall wellbeing proactively, with ingredients that work together to support multiple areas of health in one simple routine.
The formulation is evidence-led and thoughtfully balanced rather than overloaded with unnecessary ingredients. From a clinical perspective, it gives me confidence knowing the team has clearly considered safety with quality and daily usability. It is the sort of supplement I would feel comfortable recommending to owners looking to support long-term health and quality of life.

Questions?
-
What is MD1™ ?
MD1™ (Marlo Daily) is a daily powder supplement for dogs containing 16 science-backed functional ingredients. It's designed to be the one daily essential your dog needs, covering gut health, joint support, immune function, dental health and longevity in a single scoop. Think of it as the daily foundation for your dog's health, not a targeted fix for one thing.
-
Why powder instead of soft chews or capsules?
Soft chews contain up to 70% inactive ingredients: binders, fillers and palatability agents that leave very little room for what actually does something. Powder lets us hit functional doses across 16 ingredients without compromise. You get more of what works, none of what doesn't.
-
What are the 16 ingredients and what do they do?
-
Are the ingredients and their amounts informed by science?
Yes. We select each ingredient and its amount using the best available evidence, including published research, established nutritional guidance and practical veterinary experience. The type and strength of evidence varies between ingredients, so we explain the basis for each one on our ingredients page.
-
Is MD1™ safe for all dogs?
MD1™ is formulated for adult dogs. The feeding guide scales by weight up to a maximum of 3 scoops daily. If your dog has a specific health condition, is pregnant or is on medication, check with your vet first, as you would with any supplement.
-
Where is MD1™ made?
In the UK, in partnership with one of the world's leading veterinary supplement manufacturers. Every formula goes through review by a team of veterinary nutritionists and formulation scientists before it gets made. For us that meant our ingredient choices, dosing rationale and quality standards being stress-tested by people who spend their careers in this field. EFSA-approved ingredients, UK-manufactured, no corners cut.
-
How do I give it to my dog?
Mix the scoops for their weight into their food daily: up to ½ scoop under 5kg, 1 from 5-11kg, 2 from 11-34kg and 3 over 34kg. It works as a dry topper or mix with a little warm water to make a gravy. Most dogs prefer the gravy method.
-
Does my dog need to adjust to it?
We recommend starting at half the recommended amount for the first week. This gives their gut time to settle, which is particularly relevant for dogs with sensitive stomachs. From day 8, move to the full serving.
-
How long will one pouch last?
It depends on your dog's weight. Our subscription pricing is structured to give you a monthly supply for your dog's size, so you're always getting the right amount at the right price.
-
How should I store it?
Once opened, store in a cool, dry place or refrigerate to preserve freshness. Best used within 90 days of opening. We include a branded forever tin with first orders, made for exactly this purpose.
-
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. No minimum term, no cancellation fee. We'd rather earn your loyalty through results. Your first order also comes with a money-back guarantee: 90 days on 3-month plans, and 30 days on monthly plans and one-time purchases. See terms.
-
Who's behind this?
MD1™ was created by Lara Magnus-Moore, after failing to find a properly dosed daily supplement for her working line Golden Retriever, Marlo. The brand is named after him. The frustration was real and the product is the answer to it. The formula was developed in consultation with leading veterinary nutritionists and formulation scientists, so while the motivation was personal, the science behind it isn't.
-
How is MD1™ different from what's already on the market?
Most pet supplements do one thing: joints, or gut, or coat. MD1™ is a daily comprehensive, the equivalent of replacing a shelf of single-benefit products with one scoop. The closest human equivalent is AG1. That category doesn't yet exist for dogs. We're building it.
-
Why should I trust the formula?
Every ingredient is EFSA-approved, the product is manufactured in the UK and we publish the full ingredient list with exact dosages. No proprietary blends, no hidden quantities. If you want to cross-check the research behind any ingredient, we'll share the studies. Transparency isn't a marketing word for us. It's how we built the formula.
