Glucosamine helps repair and regenerate worn joint tissue, while N-acetyl-glucosamine (NAG) supports the body’s ability to reduce inflammation. Chondroitin helps regenerate synovial fluid, the lubricant between the joints that cushions friction.

Essential Fatty Acids EPA, DHA and GLA (from fish oil) improve blood flow to the joints, which also helps reduce inflammation. Natural Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that helps prevent free radical joint tissue damage. Manganese Aspartate helps the body synthesize all of these components.

Andraflex contains a blend of Glucosamine, MSM, Turmeric, Boswellia and Celadrin®.

Glucosamine plays a role in the maintenance of cartilage and connective tissues in the joints whilst MSM stabilises the connective tissue matrix of cartilage, tendons and ligaments. Turmeric and Boswellia are both powerful anti-inflammatories.

Andraflex also contains Celadrin® which may help with the cause of joint pain and promote healthy joint function by reducing inflammation and restoring mobility.

In addition to Glucosamine and MSM it also contains Ginger which has been shown to suppress inflammation by blocking the release of inflammatory chemicals and Tumeric which is also a natural anti-inflammatory agent which helps to ease stiff joints.

It also contains Trans-reservatrol which is a powerful phytonutrient that helps protect against free radical damage and Boswellia known for its joint support properties.

It is well established that many people’s diets are deficient in the two essential bone-making nutrients, calcium and magnesium, and the low calcium intakes can contribute to osteoporosis. Magnesium which is increasingly absent from the food we eat is know to help in the deposition of calcium in the bones. A dietary intake in the ratio 2:1 calcium: magnesium is often recommended.

Osteoguard provides calcium and magnesium in a 2:1 ratio along with boron and the vitamins D and K which facilitate the utilisation of calcium.

A study of middle aged British adults showed that the majority, 60%, have less than optimal levels of vitamin D and 90% have less than optimal levels during winter and spring.  (American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, March 1 2007) 

Sources of vitamin D include fortified milk, cod liver oil, certain fish (sardines, tuna, salmon and mackerel), yogurt and sunlight. During the winter there is reduced exposure to the sun so one has to rely on intake through dietary supplements and foods.

Celadrin Cream with menthol and fatty acid esters provides minor pain relief for sore muscles and joints and the surrounding areas. Celadrin Cream can be used for temporary relief of minor aches and pains associated with simple backache, joint pain, strains, bruises and sprains.
