Components and Nutritional Principles

5 Cartilagea, to nourish the cartilage deep down

It provides, at the same time, the maximum permitted daily dose of Glucosamine and Chondroitin, two substances essential to the working of the cartilage. Alongside these you will find: Hydrolysed collagen (from FORTIGEL®, a patented extract clinically shown to contribute to the generation of new cartilage*), Rosehip (Vit. C), Manganese, Copper and Selenium.

2 Omega 3 Krill Oil, to supply Superior Quality Omega 3

It contains essential fatty acids (EPA and DHA) important for the joints. The Omega 3 from Krill is up to 4 times more bioavailable than that from fish and leaves no fishy aftertaste.

2 x Glutatione Forte, to supply antioxidants

With Glutathione and Quercetin (at the highest permitted levels) as well as Naringenin, Selenium and OxiP®. The most powerful antioxidants in the world at your disposal!

2 Sanaos New Formula, for joint wellbeing

It contains Boswellia, Devil's Claw, Myrrh, Ash and Grape Seeds, which have positive effects on the joints, ligaments and on localised tension.
