Our unique premium functional blend contains 20 selected ingredients, including plant extracts and antioxidants such as turmeric, frankincense and astaxanthin, plus a targeted selection of vitamins and trace elements including zinc, manganese and vitamin C for normal collagen formation, for bones and cartilage and to protect cells from oxidative stress. All the ingredients contained in Joints Support Sports Recovery Complex come from purely plant-based sources or from vegan production (e.g., through fermentation).
This blend is based on two turmeric extracts and frankincense (Boswellia serrata) extract, which has been specially produced for us with a particularly high bowellic acid content of 85% and 20% AKBA. The blend also contains plant extracts from green tea, rhodiola and tamarind, pure vegan trans-resveratrol and key vitamins and trace elements.
The pure plant extracts are extracted using only water as a solvent or a combination of water and food-grade alcohol. In addition to frankincense and turmeric, this specially formulated functional blend contains the following plant extracts: Rhodiola extract with 5% rosavins as well as 2% salidroside, green tea extract with 99.8% polyphenols, 77% catechins and 47% EGCG, an OPC-rich pine bark extract and extract from the seeds of the tamarind tree (Tamarindus indica). Other important bioactives include our original Veri-te™ resveratrol from fermentation (at least 98% trans-resveratrol) and a purely plant-based astaxanthin from the microalga Haematococcus pluvialis, which is cultivated in highly purified spring drinking water instead of river water. This unique blend is rounded off with an extract from the fruiting body of Tremella fuciformis functional mushroom, which comes from organic cultivation and is standardised to contain at least 30% mushroom polysaccharides.
This functional blend is supplemented by a range of important vitamins and trace elements: vegan vitamin D as a premium D3 raw material from special productionthat has been dissolved in high-quality coconut MCT oil for optimum bioavailability plus pure K2Vital® from Kappa with a minimum 99.7% all-trans K2 MK-7; vitamin C coated with bioflavonoids and plant-based fatty acids (special active ingredient PureWay-C®); and bioactive vitamin B6 as pyridoxal 5'-phosphate. The trace elements zinc, manganese and copper are included as zinc bisglycinate, manganese glycinate and copper lysinate as particularly bioavailable amino acid chelates. Silicon is contained as a natural bamboo shoot extract, boron as sodium borate (borax) with a purity of at least 99% and selenium in organic form from nutritional yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) with 84% selenomethionine.
