Source

• UC-II® standardized cartilage is derived from chicken sternum cartilage using a patented, low temperature manufacturing process and standardized to contain 25% total collagen.
• Low molecular weight hyaluronic acid is derived from fermentation.
• MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) is synthetic.
• Meriva® turmeric phytosome is derived from turmeric extract (Curcuma longa) root and standardized to contain 18% curcuminoids, and phospholipids derived from sunflower.
• 5-LOXIN® AKBA extract is derived from Boswellia serrata gum resin and standardized to contain 30% 3-acetyl-11-keto-beta-boswellic acid (AKBA).
• Ascorbyl palmitate is derived from corn dextrose fermentation and palm oil.

Science & Research

Joint Complex (single dose) contains UC-II® undenatured type-II collagen complex, hyaluronic acid and MSM to support joint health, flexibility, and comfort. In a randomized, double-blind trial involving 52 subjects, 40 mg of UC-II® was more than twice as effective in promoting joint health as 1,500 mg of glucosamine and 1,200 mg of chondroitin as rated by WOMAC, VAS, and the Lequesne functional index. Another study involving five women supplemented with 40 mg of UC-II® for 42 days, indicated statistically significant support for joint comfort and flexibility. MSM provides sulfur to enhance the structure and integrity of proteoglycans. A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial indicates that MSM promotes joint comfort and function. Researchsuggests that MSM may also support antioxidant capacity during exercise. Hyaluronic acid helps maintain tissue hydration to support joint lubrication5 HyaMax® sodium hyaluronate provides a low molecular weight source of hyaluronic acid produced through fermentation. In a pharmacokinetic study, orally administered HyaMax® hyaluronic acid was incorporated into joints, connective tissue, and skin, with a particular affinity for cartilaginous joints. Lastly, 5-LOXIN® AKBA boswellia and enhanced absorption Meriva® turmeric extracts help maintain healthy 5-lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase-2 enzyme activity and cytokine metabolism to offer additional joint comfort support.
