Collagen

Collagen is a structural extracellular protein that constitutes almost 1/3 of the total amount of protein in the human body. There are 28 types of collagen, the most common of which is type I collagen. It occurs naturally in the skin, bones, tendons and ligaments. [4] Type II collagen is found in joint cartilage and, together with proteoglycans, is the main component of the cartilage matrix. [5] The ESSENSEY FLEXER dietary supplement contains collagen types I, II and III.

MSM

MSM is also known as organic sulfur or methylsulfonylmethane. It is a volatile component of the sulfur cycle and is one of the sources of sulfur in the diet. [7] MSM occurs naturally in food, e.g. in fish, unpasteurized milk, raw vegetables. It is destroyed by heat treatment. [8]

Glucosamine sulfate

Glucosamine is a substance naturally produced in the body from glucose and glutamine. It is a common component of human tissues and secretions. [11] It is synthesized in relatively small amounts, and its production may change with age. [11] Glucosamine is a substrate for the biosynthesis of glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans, which are compounds present in the extracellular matrix of cartilage. [11] Glucosamine is most often available in the form of sulfate, hydrochloride, or N-acetylglucosamine. [11]

L-proline

Proline makes up about 10% of all amino acids in collagen. Proline support is important in the biosynthesis of collagen, as well as other proline-containing proteins. [12]

Chondroitin sulfate

Chondroitin sulfates constitute more than 80% of the glycosaminoglycans of articular cartilage, which are responsible for its physiological functions. [9] Proteoglycans containing chondroitin sulfate are also found in the aorta, skeletal muscle, eye, lung, and brain. The chondroitin sulfate content of cartilage may change with age. [10]

Calcium

Calcium is a nutrient essential for the proper functioning of the body. It is found in 99% in teeth and bones, and only in 1% in blood serum. [13] Calcium is needed to maintain healthy bones and teeth. [1] Additionally, it contributes to the proper functioning of muscles and nerve impulse transmission processes. [1] It also supports proper energy metabolism, blood clotting and the functioning of digestive enzymes. [1]

Vitamin C

It is a water-soluble vitamin, also called ascorbic acid. It plays an important role in the functioning of the human body. [2] Vitamin C helps in the proper production of collagen, which supports the functioning of bones and cartilage. [1] Additionally, it supports the immune system and has antioxidant effects. [1]

Magnesium

Magnesium is one of the most important ions that affect the proper functioning of the body. It is a component of chlorophyll, which is why we can find it in food, for example in green leafy vegetables. [3] Magnesium helps maintain healthy bones and teeth, supports the functioning of muscles and the nervous system, and also contributes to proper protein synthesis. [1]

Omega-3 fatty acids

Omega-3 fatty acids are polyunsaturated fatty acids that are classified as essential fatty acids (EFAs). The most well-known include eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), as well as alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). [14] EFAs must be supplied in food, because humans cannot synthesize them on their own. In food, they are found, for example, in oily sea fish. [14]

Hyaluronic acid

Hyaluronic acid is a compound that occurs naturally in living organisms. In the human body, it is constantly exchanged as a result of degradation and de novo synthesis, and its amount changes with age. [6] It is found, among others, in joints, blood vessel walls, vitreous body of the eye, and also in the skin. [6]
