Phytonutrients to help regulate inflammation.
The body's ability to maintain a natural balance of enzymes such as cyclooxgenase 1 and 2 (COX-1 and COX-2) that regulate inflammatory physiological response mechanisms is critical to the health of the entire body. In fact, this metabolic process appears to play a crucial role in supporting cardiovascular, immune, neurological, and joint and connective tissue systems. Each of the herbal extracts included in InflaThera™ contain multiple, beneficial compounds and have documented ability to help modulate COX enzymes, scavenge free radicals, and promote physiological balance in susceptible tissues in a safe and harmonious fashion. InflaThera™ features Meriva®, a proprietary turmeric-phospholipid complex with superior bioavailability and clinically proven benefits for persons with inflammatory conditions. Oral absorption of curcumin, the active component in turmeric, is generally poor due to its low solubility and instability in the intestinal environment. The Meriva® phytosome complex greatly increases stability and enhances oral absorption by over 20-fold creating a highly bioavailable form of curcumin. This is a powerful, synergistic combination that can be useful for almost all types of patients.
