Boswellia Carterii – a potent variety of Boswellia subject to heavy research in recent years, Boswellia Carterii has been used for centuries in the management of mobility-related issues due to its fantastic anti-inflammatory properties. The active compounds within Boswellia, the boswellic acids, are thought to work by preventing the formation of Leukotrienes in the body, which are a cause of inflammation. Boswellia Extra packs in an impressive 45% boswellic acid content per serving, ensuring high levels of support.
Linseed Meal – research has suggested that Boswellia is a fat-soluble compound, meaning that it is best absorbed into the bloodstream when fed alongside a source of fat. Linseed Meal, with its high omega-3 oil content, is the perfect partner to ensure optimal bioavailability and utilisation of the Boswellia. Linseed also provides additional benefits for the digestive system and skin and coat quality.
Ginger – providing anti-inflammatory properties due to the presence of compounds such as gingerols and shogaols, which have been shown to inhibit the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and enzymes. These compounds also have antioxidant properties that help to protect against oxidative stress, which is a major contributor to inflammation.
Black Pepper – containing many anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, black pepper works alongside Ginger and Boswellia to support comfortable and fluid joint movement. The active ingredient Piperine is also highly beneficial in increasing the absorption of Boswellia and other nutrients into the bloodstream.
