Glucosamine
Glucosamine is a naturally occurring compound found in cartilage, the firm, flexible tissue that helps cushion our joints. Glucosamine plays a role in the structure of connective tissues like cartilage, tendons, and ligaments. Because natural production can vary and isn’t directly obtained through many diets, many people look to supplemental glucosamine as a way to support their daily movement.* Our bodies produce it in small amounts, but many supplements, including ours, get it from the shells of shellfish.
Boswellia
Boswellia comes from the resin of the Boswellia serrata tree. Known for its distinctive fragrance, it’s a close relative of Boswellia sacra, the tree where biblical frankincense comes from. Serrata originates from India and has been used in centuries-old Ayurvedic wellness practices for whole-body support.*
Ginger
Familiar for its sharp flavor and aroma that is both sharp and soothing, ginger has long been used in culinary traditions and wellness routines.* Its inherent compounds, gingerols and shogaols are associated with soothing properties.*
Turmeric
Another common kitchen spice, turmeric is treasured for its golden hue and naturally occurring compounds, including curcuminoids, which give the root its distinctive color.* It has been used for centuries as a colorful and flavorful addition to wellness routines.*
Japanese Knotweed
This hardy, bamboo-like plant isn’t just a staple in Eastern traditional wellness practices—it’s one of honeybees’ favorite plants.* It contains resveratrol, a compound that is often linked to the “French Paradox,” the idea that people get certain health benefits from grapes and wine.*
Kava
Super Flex® Joint Formula also includes kava, a root native to the South Pacific with a long history of cultural and traditional use in the region. Its key compounds, called kavalactones, are valued for the sense of ease and balance they’re known to promote.* They are absorbed in the gut, processed by the liver, and excreted by the body without evidence of bioaccumulation.
We love kava so much, we use it in two premium formulas:
