LAB ONE N°1 Active Flex 90 capsules

The dietary supplement LAB ONE N°1 Active Flex 90 capsules is a product containing 8 ingredients - glucosamine, chondroitin, vitamin C, hydrolyzed type II collagen, ginger extract, oyster extract, hyaluronic acid, and manganese - in convenient capsule form.

Glucosamine is a natural ingredient found in the intercellular substance of cartilage, the tissue that covers joints or forms elements such as the ear pavilion. It strengthens cartilage tissue and is therefore recommended for people who engage in regular physical activity, where this tissue is often damaged.

Chondroitin is also a natural constituent of cartilage tissue. Its function is to reduce friction between contacting elements. In the preparation, it is present as chondroitin sulfate and influences the production of joint fluid.

Vitamin C is a component for the biosynthesis of collagen, a protein that builds, among other things, blood vessels. [This protein makes them elastic and tight, thus preventing excessive bleeding.

Collagen is the main protein of connective tissue, giving it proper tension, elasticity, and flexibility. There are more than a dozen subtypes depending on its structure. Type I is found in skin and tendons. Type II is found in articular cartilage, and type III forms the fibers of reticular connective tissue, which constitutes the scaffold of the body's organs. [1]

Ginger contributes to maintaining joint mobility and reduces morning stiffness [ID 2649]. Additionally, it supports proper muscle function [ID 2806]. Furthermore, it has a positive effect on many body systems.

Oyster or turmeric is also a plant very beneficial for health. In the musculoskeletal system, it influences the good condition of bones [ID 4012] and the good condition of joints.

Hyaluronic acid is a glycosaminoglycan present in the body. It is produced in the joint cavity, where one of its roles is to ensure the sliding of articular cartilage as a component of synovial fluid. This helps prevent cartilage wear. Additionally, this substance has a mild anti-inflammatory effect, which prevents further cartilage damage. [2]

Manganese is part of antioxidants [ID 309], participates in the formation of connective tissue [ID 404], and contributes to maintaining bones in good condition [ID 310]. Moreover, it affects energy metabolism [ID 311].

In summary, LAB ONE N°1 Active Flex 90 capsules is a dietary supplement containing ingredients that strengthen bones and joints, actively supporting the body's musculoskeletal system.
