Thanks to a growing awareness of the benefits of functional food products, they are rapidly becoming part of many American's healthy lifestyles. This acceptance is not only coming from health professionals and consumers, but also the pharmaceutical industry, where more all-natural ingredients are being integrated into over-the-counter drugs and nutritional supplements.
Glucosyn RX™ contains 4 clinically proven natural ingredients for improving joint function. Clinical studies for the ingredients include the GAIT Study for Glucosamine and Chondroitin combination showing the combination reduces joint discomfort and improves joint function for those with moderate to severe joint pain, Celadrin® has numerous studies showing clinical efficacy and a recent clinical study showing that it inhibits the thromboxane synthase enzyme, which is a strong facilitator of inflammation and local tissue damage. Celadrin® has been shown to be orally effective on average within 14 days. Biocell Collagen II® has been shown in a clinical study directed by Dr. Eric Sheldon, a clinical research investigator at Miami Research Associated, that daily consumption of BioCell Collagen II® led to clinically meaningful improvements for patients with osteoarthritis that were significantly superior to a placebo control group. BioCell Collagen II® has also been clinically shown invitro to inhibit hyaluronidase, an enzyme that degrades Hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic Acid is important for collagen formation and therefore regenerating joint and skin tissue.
DC Greens20™ has ingredients known to contain phytochemicals that act as powerful antioxidants for the body. Antioxidant activity is tested and measured by the ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) test, which gives a means of measuring antioxidant equivalence. Based on the 2004 ORAC guide the average 100g serving of fruits and vegetables is approximately 400 ORAC units. One serving of DC Greens20 contains over
13,000 total ORAC units as tested by Brunswick Laboratories and so contains the ORAC antioxidant activity equivalent of up to 20 servings of fruits and vegetables!
