Product Description
ArtiFlex by Vitobest is a food supplement based on UC-II collagen, chondroitin, glucosamine sulfate, and MSM (OptiMSM). It contains other high-quality bioactive components and is recommended for maintaining joint health. Available in titanium dioxide-free capsules, ArtiFlex by Vitobest is a food supplement that combines the action of excellent active ingredients to help improve joint health, reduce inflammation and pain, and repair damaged cartilage. Vitobest's ArtiFlex contains hydrolyzed UC-II collagen (Lonza). Why is UC-II collagen so effective? It can resist hydrolysis in the intestine, which improves absorption. This intestinal hydrolysis is part of the digestion process, where much of the classic collagen is normally eliminated, with only a minimal amount being absorbed. Lonza's UC-II collagen has a unique mechanism of action that directly stimulates collagen production through chondrocytes (cells of cartilage tissue responsible for maintaining the tissue and producing collagen). Why is type II collagen so important in the body? Type II collagen is the main component found in cartilage tissue. Joint cartilage is a highly specialized tissue that covers the surfaces of the bones that make up the joints. It helps protect the bones and facilitates movement. Articular cartilage does not have blood vessels; instead, it is nourished superficially by synovial fluid and bone, and it has a limited capacity to regenerate. Chondrocytes (the only cellular element present in cartilage) are responsible for the maintenance and synthesis of the extracellular matrix, which is composed of 20% solid matter and 80% water, and whose main components are proteoglycans and type II collagen. For this reason, the consumption of external collagen such as UC-II is vital to contribute to the recovery and prevention of cartilage loss. Clinically proven. Multiple studies have demonstrated the efficacy of UC-II collagen in both prevention and treatment. WOMAC scale reduction. Greater efficac
