The Health Aid Osteoflex Plus is a dietary supplement with a composition of green-lipped mussel (Green Lipped Mussel) extract, glucosamine, chondroitin, MSM, collagen type II, turmeric extract, vitamin C and magnesium. The package contains 60 tablets.
It is aimed at adults who want to cover their intake of these components through a dietary supplement.
Magnesium contributes to the normal maintenance of connective tissues and bones, as well as to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. Vitamin C contributes to the normal synthesis of collagen, for the normal function of bones and cartilage, as well as to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. These are the two components of the composition with an approved health claim.
Glucosamine, chondroitin and MSM are natural ingredients associated with cartilage and connective tissue. Green-lipped mussel extract, collagen type II and turmeric extract are also components that are the subject of research in relation to the joint. None of these currently have an approved health claim from the EFSA, so they are presented here as composition ingredients, without a specific claim of effect such as relief of pain or inflammation.
It suits adults who want to cover their intake of these components as part of a balanced diet. The product is not intended for the prevention, treatment or cure of arthritis or any other joint condition, and does not replace a medical diagnosis or treatment. Anyone experiencing joint pain or diagnosed with a joint condition should consult a doctor.
Composition per tablet: green-lipped mussel extract (Green Lipped Mussel) 350mg, glucosamine sulfate 250mg (of which free glucosamine 195mg), MSM 150mg, chondroitin sulfate 200mg, vitamin C 60mg, collagen type II 100mg, turmeric extract 100mg, magnesium 2mg.
There are formulations on the market with a different combination of components associated with cartilage and joints, in different quantities. When choosing, it is worth knowing that most of these components currently do not have an approved health claim in the EU, so the choice is often based on other criteria, always in consultation with your doctor.
