HOW DOES CHEMIX JOINT WORK?

Cissus Quadrangularis (std. for 2.5% ketosteroids): Cissus quadrangularis has been used in traditional Eastern medicine for hundreds of years. Cissus quadrangularis is loaded with antioxidants, ascorbic acid, calcium, carotene/carotenoids, resveratrol and triterpinoids.

I truly believe this is an extremely undervalued ingredient when it comes to joint and collagen supplementation. We used a whopping 750mg per serving!

Pamlmitoylethanolamide: Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA, a mouthful) is your body’s main naturally produced. PEA is one of many fatty acids that have the enthanolamide functional group attached to it. Its origins go back to an obscure study in the 1940s showing that PEA derived from purified egg yolks. In 1964, it was first isolated in mammalian tissues and has over 350 studies since. PEA binds to the nuclear receptor, where it then elicits a variety of biological activities.

CurcuWIN (Curcuma longa L. 20%): Curcumin is one of the main curcuminoids found in turmeric. There have been hundreds of studies on curcumin and its positive effects on overall health. NVP helps encase and disperse the curcuminoids to help them be more hydrophilic(water soluble). This allows your body to utilize much more of the active curcuminoids.

AprèsFlex Boswellia serrata gum resin std. for 20% AKBA: The gum resin from Boswellia serrata has been used for centuries because its rich in terpene and triterpenic acids, known as boswellic acids. The most potent of them being 11-keto--boswellic acid and 3-O-acetly-11-keto--boswellic acid(AKBA). Studies show that taking 1 serving of AprèsFlex begins to work in as little as 5 days! No more taking big chalky pills for 30days to help.

UC-II Standardized Chicken Cartilage(Providing 10mg Total Cartilage, Including Undenatured Type II Collagen): Undenatured type-II collagen or UC-II has been extensively studies in humans. The key term here is UNDENATURED. This means the protein of the collagen is exactly has it is inside the body and includes all the necessary components like proteoglycans, glucosamine hyaluronic acid, and chondroitin sulfate. These make up the very basics of cartiliage and synovial fluid- the viscous, non-Newtonian fluid between your joints.

Tetrahydrocurcumin: We have already spoken about curcumin and its many benefits, we all as pitfalls. One major pitfall we spoke about was oral bioavailability, which I rectified using an highly-bioavailable form known as CurcuWin. However, we have yet to speak about one of the main metabolites of curcumin known as tetrahydrocurucmin. The “tetrahydro” means that there is a reduction in 2 double bonds on the molecule where 4 hydrogens are added in place. This dramatically improves the oral bioavailability of curcumin, especially in the intestinal tract.
