Chondrosamine® Plus MSM 250g Nutritional Support for Healthy Joints Glucosamine sulfate and chondroitin sulfate support the maintenance of healthy joints through their role in the synthesis of joint matrix structural components. Along with methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), vitamin C and trace minerals provide nutritional support for connective tissue. Arthritis is characterised by joint inflammation and cartilage tissue breakdown. Osteoarthritis is caused by the degeneration of cartilage. Cartilage has a gel-like nature and protects the ends of the joints in the body by acting as a shock absorber. Without cartilage in the joint, bone literally rubs against bone leading to inflammation, pain, deformity, and limitation of movement in the joint. Glucosamine sulfate provides nutritional support for the metabolism and repair of joints and cartilage. Chondroitin sulfate is a glycosaminoglycan which is a fundamental component of cartilage and other connective tissue. MSM is a natural source of sulfur which has many structural and functional roles in the body. It is required for healthy development and maintenance of connective tissue and is a component of the antioxidant compounds N-acetylcysteine and glutathione. Vitamin C and minerals such as magnesium, potassium, and zinc provide additional nutritional support for healthy connective tissue and bone mineralisation. Key Features and Benefits •May provide symptomatic relief of joint pain associated with osteoarthritis. •May help to reduce joint swelling associated with arthritis. •May help to increase joint mobility. •May assist in the management of osteoarthritis. •May help to slow the progression of osteoarthritis of the knee.

AnthoBerry® ORAC 6000 is a great-tasting food powder blend of standardised berry and fruit extracts, sourced specifically for their high quality, antioxidant potency - it’s a delicious way to increase your daily intake of free radical quenchers. Berries and coloured fruits are rich sources of antioxidants - the red, blue and purple pigments include the important anthocyanins that play a protective role as free radical quenchers in the body. AnthoBerry® ORAC 6000 has been designed to utilise the latest scientific research underlining the importance of antioxidants in the diet. The AnthoBerry® blend offers standardised, high ORAC (oxygen radical absorbance capacity) value extracts of blueberry, raspberry, strawberry, cranberry, cherry, prune, grape and blackcurrant - all specifically chosen to provide a powerful antioxidant combination. Because the antioxidant value of foods varies markedly depending upon soil, climate, processing, freshness and other factors, standardisation is critical. Antioxidant potency is now measured by the ORAC value, which represents the total antioxidant value of foods without differentiating between individual antioxidants. Key Features and Benefits A naturally sourced, delicious and versatile powdered daily supplement which provides a substantial amount of antioxidants. Improves the body’s antioxidant status, and hence free radical quenching capacity. Two teaspoons per day supplies 6000 ORAC units, approximately the same amount of antioxidants as two cups of blueberries.

To a certain extent, free radicals are just a part of being alive. It is estimated that every single cell in the body is attacked by a free radical about 10 000 times a day! Our bodies are constantly breaking down molecules to simpler ones (e.g. carbohydrates in food to simple sugars for fuel) and building bigger molecules (e.g. using amino acids to make protein). These are the processes of metabolism, and involve energy production. Most of the time energy production requires oxygen; and this naturally produces a great deal of free radicals. As we age the number of free radicals we naturally produce increas... » read more
