  • Aim Frame Essentials – 120 Caps

    N$557.00

    Frame Essentials

    AIM Frame Essentials is a joint health, dietary supplement that combines four effective ingredients: glucosamine sulfate, glucosamine hydrochloride, boswellia extract and methylsulfonylmethane (MSM).

    The human skeleton provides strength, stability and a frame to support physical movement. The ends of your bones are covered in cartilage – smooth, tough, protective tissue that acts as a shock absorber between individual bones and reduces friction.

    Joint anatomy differs significantly depending on their function. Synovial joints allow for free movement at the point where bone ends meet, for example, elbows, knees and ankles. These types of joints have a protective cushion of cartilage that provides pain-free, smooth motion at the joint. The capsule of the joint is lined with soft tissue called the synovial membrane, which produces synovial fluid. This viscous fluid lubricates the surface of bone ends protected by cartilage.

  • Genologix Astaxanthin – 60 VegCaps

    N$246.75

    Astaxanthin is a carotenoid pigment that has powerful cardiovascular, cosmetic and antioxidant benefits. It is a naturally occurring orange-red pigment which can be found in freshwater and marine life such as trout, shrimp, salmon and algae, giving them their pink colouring.

    Astaxanthin is a Carotenoid, which is an antioxidant that assists in reducing inflammation in the body. Antioxidants are molecules that combat free radicals in your body – when levels of free radicals become too high, they can become harmful to DNA and are linked to multiple illnesses and premature aging. The body has its own antioxidant defenses to manage free radical levels which are constantly being formed. Without antioxidants, free radicals would cause harm quickly.

    Carotenoids are highly fat-soluble compounds, meaning that they are better absorbed when consumed with fat. They are then absorbed and metabolised in the same manner as fat where it makes its way into lipoprotein particles, where it can be transported to essential tissues. Its similarity to fat absorption is advantageous as this allows Astaxanthin to directly affect the way in which fat is metabolised, assisting in the reduction of cholesterol and triglycerides. This, along with its inflammatory and antioxidant capabilities make Astaxanthin beneficial to cardiovascular health by protecting from heart disease and preventing arterial walls from being blocked.

     

    • Promotes healthy skin, eyes and joints
