Description
Indications
Osteo Bi-Flex Gold is a dietary supplement used to temporarily improve joint function and relieve pain associated with mild to moderate osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee.
Moreover, Osteo Bi-Flex Gold contributes to sustaining healthy cartilage and may support collagen formation to maintain healthy bones.
Osteo Bi-Flex Gold contains four active ingredients: glucosamine, chondroitin, methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), and 5-Loxin advanced.
- Glucosamine is derived from shellfish shells and mimics the natural compound in human cartilage, promoting the creation of synovial fluids that lubricate joints.
- Chondroitin is sourced from animal cartilage and functions similarly to another human cartilage compound, aiding joints in retaining synovial fluids.
- MSM is a naturally occurring sulfur-based compound believed to combat inflammation and alleviate pain.
- 5-Loxin advanced is an enhanced form of Boswellia serrata (herbal medicine for arthritis) and is believed to reduce joint inflammation and pain.
