Special cultivation techniques and a patented drying process are used to make i-flex™ from the fruit of the Rosa Canina plant. This unique process protects the delicate ingredient complex provided by nature in order to maximise the benefits of i-flex™.
In-vitro studies have shown that the unique i-flex™ complex, inhibited chemotaxis and subsequent migration of peripheral blood neutrophils and monocytes into human tissue. This may not mean anything to you and I, but it sheds light on the joint-soothing and joint-comfort- providing properties of the active ingredients, enabling scientists to propose a possible mode of action of i-flex™.
i-flex™ is made from specially cultivated rosehips, which grow under natural conditions. No fertilizers, pesticides or other chemical treatments are used - just sunshine and rain.
Unlike conventional processing, our patented process ensures that the delicate ingredient complex is not destroyed and helps explain why i-flex™ is able to demonstrate such remarkable joint-health-supporting properties in a host of scientific studies1-7.
In addition to these effects, further benefits can be expected from the antioxidative ingredient cocktail that nature provides in i-flex™. Most significantly, the naturally occurring vitamin C, vitamin E and bioflavonoids that are known to help reduce oxidative stress and support the maintenance of tissue integrity and health.
The net result is an ingredient complex, which has been shown in scientific studies to have a beneficial impact on certain key biochemical markers related to joint health. It underlines the various benefits that i-flex™ can provide in promoting healthy joints and an active lifestyle. |
