As we age, structural alterations occur in our joints, leading to painful inflammation, discomfort, and loss of mobility. ArthroMax™ is a multinutrient formula designed to provide broad-spectrum support for aging joints and cartilage. Based on recent scientific findings, ArthroMax™ has been improved with higher potencies and an exciting new ingredient. ArthroMax and Joint Supplements The new ArthroMax™ contains more glucosamine sulfate along with a special Boswellia extract known as 5-LOXIN®. Glucosamine sulfate provides underlying structural foundation for joints, while 5-LOXIN® inhibits the 5-lipoxygenase enzyme, thereby reducing levels of pro-inflammatory leukotriene B4. New Ingredient - Black Tea Theaflavins 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. New studies have shown compounds in black tea called theaflavins suppresses proinflammatory cytokines at the genomic level. Scientists have found that theaflavins uniquely down-regulate the expression of genes and cytokines associated with inflammatory conditions. Joint Function and Healthy Bones The new ArthroMax™ formula provides these bioactive theaflavin fractions, along with methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), which contains sulfur components that are critically important in maintaining comfortable joint function.1 ArthroMax™ 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. ArthroMax™ with Theaflavins has less than 10 mg of caffeine per serving (the amount found in a quarter cup of brewed green tea).
