Maintaining healthy, flexible joints is essential to quality of life. Joint stiffness and discomfort can stand in the way of performing even simple everyday tasks.
Most people do not obtain critical nutrients shown to support youthful joint function and mobility. To meet this need, Life Extension® introduces Krill Healthy Joint Formula, a patent-pending blend of deep-sea krill oil sourced in Antarctica, combined with hyaluronic acid and astaxanthin. In a recent clinical trial involving over 100 maturing individuals, a 55% reduction in joint discomfort was observed in less than three months, with 63% of participants maintaining ease of motion.1
Three compounds for specific benefitsNew data reveal that whole krill oil is particularly effective for joint health.2 These fatty acids have been shown to specifically target joint tissue.2,3
Hyaluronic acid occurs naturally in the joints,4 where it acts to lubricate and cushion against repeated physical impacts.5 Because it forms a major component of cartilage and soft tissue,4 it is widely used to promote joint health.4-8
The difficulty has been that hyaluronic acid is a large molecule not well absorbed by the body. When combined with krill oil, it has been shown to reach significantly higher levels in the bloodstream than in standalone form.8
Krill oil is a natural source of the antioxidant carotenoid astaxanthin. Astaxanthin works in multiple ways, including suppression of free radical activity and enhanced mitochondrial function.9 It also maintains krill oil's molecular stability.
Most commercially available krill oils do not contain significant amounts of astaxanthin because it is nearly eliminated during processing. Krill Healthy Joint Formula is fortified with astaxanthin, for maximum stability and superior benefit.
Just one capsule a day of Krill Healthy Joint Formula duplicates successful human clinical trials.
