Life Extension ArthroMax with Theaflavins and ApresFlex, 120 caps
As people grow older, age-related stiffness and discomfort in the joints becomes a fact of life. Activities once routine become a challenge as limited mobility hampers your every move. You now have a more potent option to provide broad-spectrum support for aging joints.
ArthroMax is available with Black Tea Theaflavins (without UC-II) to protect against immune attack in the joints via a separate mechanism.
Inflammatory reactions are regulated by a series of "cytokines" produced in the body. Normal aging results in an unfavorable balance of these cytokines that contributes to persistent inflammatory conditions. Studies have shown that a special fraction found in black tea suppresses proinflammatory cytokines at the genomic level.
Scientists have found that these compounds called theaflavins uniquely downregulate the expression of genes and cytokines associated with inflammatory conditions.
ArthroMax with Theaflavins and AprèsFlex provides these bioactive theaflavin fractions, along with methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), which contains sulfur components that are critically important in maintaining comfortable joint function.
ArthroMax with Theaflavins and AprèsFlex also contains FruiteX B OsteoBoron, a patented form of boron that is identical to natural plant forms found in food. Considered more bioavailable than other forms of boron, FruiteX B OsteoBoron also supports healthy bones and joints.
AprèsFlex represents a quantum leap forward in the delivery to aging joints of boswellia, long prized for its ability to help with inflammatory issues.
It is a superior inhibitor of the enzyme 5-lipoxygenase or 5-LOX. Excess activity of 5-LOX results in the accumulation of leukotriene B4, a pro-inflammatory compound that affects aging joints. Boswellia has been shown to bind directly to the 5-LOX enzyme in our bodies, preventing it from facilitating production of pro-inflammatory leukotrienes.
AprèsFlex boswellia absorbs into the blood 52% better than previously available forms of boswellia, for superior effectiveness.
Boswellia is widely regarded as a potent anti-inflammatory nutrient, wherein its primary active ingredient, acetyl-11-keto-β-boswellic acid (AKBA), inhibits the inflammatory enzyme 5-lipoxygenase.
Excess 5-lipoxygenase is common in joint pain, allergies, respiratory conditions, and cardiovascular problems. A number of new studies give insights into boswellia, a unique nutrient, even expanding its potential usefulness.
