Flexagen® Forte is a dietary supplement that contains formula of carefully selected active ingredients for comprehensive joint health and movement comfort. Flexagen® Forte contains substances that are normally produced by human body (collagen, hyaluronic acid, chondroitin, etc.), however over years or overuse of the joints (professional sports etc.) the ability to produce them in sufficient quantities decreases. Plant extracts contained in the product help maintain the flexibility and comfort of the joints (Boswellia serrata) and contribute to maintaining joint mobility and prevent the feeling of morning stiffness (Ginger).
The rich formula contains pure native (undenatured) collagen type II and collagen II hydrolyzate with chondroitin, glucosamine sulfate, ginger and boselia extracts, vitamin C and hyaluronic acid, as well as the natural mineral copper and manganese in the form of Albion® amino acid chelates:
- Collagen is a fibrillar protein found in the connective tissue of joints. Native type II collagen is a major component of articular cartilage, that makes up to 70% of cartilage and are responsible for its structure and strength.
- Chondroitin is a natural polymer present in the cartilage and connective tissue of articular cartilage, hyaluronic acid is an organic substance in the joint fluid while glucosamine sulphate (natural, derived from crustacean shells) is an important component in the structure of articular cartilage (glycosaminoglycans).
- Plant extracts – Boswellia serrata improve joint mobility, ensure joint comfort, have a beneficial effect on the health of the musculoskeletal system as a whole, while ginger extract can help the body control the inflammatory process by promoting the regulation of the balance of inflammatory hormones – prostaglandins, thus improving joint mobility and prevent the feeling of morning stiffness.
- Manganese and copper in the form of Albion® amino acid chelates, promote the formation of normal connective tissue and help maintain their health, as well as promote the protection of cells against oxidative stress, manganese helps to maintain bone health.
- Vitamin C promotes the formation of collagen, which is needed for the normal functioning of cartilage and bones, and helps protect cells against oxidative stress.
