OsteoLiv® Gold

THE PATENTED INGREDIENTS

BIOACTIVE COLLAGEN PEPTIDES (Germany)

Bioactive Collagen Peptides^TM (BCP) are derived from the enzymatic hydrolysis of collagen, primarily consist of the amino acids glycine (Gly), proline (Pro), and hydroxyproline (Hyp) ^[1]. BCP is readily absorbed into the articular cartilage and promotes cartilage regeneration through the anabolic pathway ^[2]. BCP is scientifically proven to stimulate the synthesis of joint cartilage matrix substances such as Type II collagen and glycosaminoglycans (GAG) to counteract the processes of wear and tear on the cartilage ^[3]. 

AQUAMIN® SEA ALGAE EXTRACT (Ireland)  ~ Providing Elemental Calcium & Magnesium

Aquamin® is a patented Sea Algae Extract (Lithothamnion Sp.), clinically proven in 33 peer-reviewed publications to enhance bone density, bone mineralization and joint health. Derived from a natural, seaweed source, Aquamin® contains substantial amounts of elemental calcium and magnesium, along with 72 bioactive trace minerals.

With its superior bioavailability, Aquamin® demonstrates a three-fold (3x) increase in bone mineralisation ^[4], and significantly inhibits the production of key pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α & IL-1β, thereby reducing inflammatory conditions in osteoarthritis ^[5,7-8].

MENAQ7® VITAMIN K2 (Norway)

MenaQ7® is the most clinically validated, patented Vitamin K2 as MK-7 derived from fermented soybeans (natto) and supported by over 22 human clinical trials focusing on bone health and cardiovascular benefits. MenaQ7® effectively prevents elemental calcium from accumulating in arteries by binding it to the bone matrix. This ensures that the calcium reaches the bones, preventing calcification in blood vessels, and thus averting both osteoporosis and arterial calcification.

​OVOMET® EGGSHELL MEMBRANE (Spain)

Ovomet® is a patented, bioactive, native form of eggshell membrane extract that is standardized to contain undenatured Collagen type I, V & X (33-38%), Sulfur-bearing amino acids (10%), Hyaluronic acid (4%), Glucosamine (2%), Chondroitin sulfate (2%), Keratin protein (1%) and Lysozyme (1%) ^[13-15]. This patented composition contains more than 500 different proteins as Growth factor β, Ovocalixine, Ovocleidin, Ovotransferrin, Elastin, Desmosine and Isodesmosine. These components demonstrate unique anti-inflammatory, analgesic, joint regenerative and tendon-protective properties ^[18]Multiple human clinical trials have concluded that daily supplementation of 300mg of Ovomet® is effective in reducing joint pain as early as 3 days, and with no reported side effects ^[16-18].

CURCUWIN® ULTRA+ TURMERIC EXTRACT

Curcuwin® Ultra+ employs the patented, proprietary Ultrasol Tech® -- a cutting-edge nutrient delivery system meticulously crafted not only to enhance the bioavailability of curcuminoids but also, to shield these vital bioactive compounds from degradation within the intestines ^[19]. It has a significant increase in plasma concentration of curcuminoids in human subjects when compared to the standard 95% turmeric extract commonly found in the market.

Curcuwin® Ultra+ boasts an impressive 144 times greater absorption rate compared to standard curcumin coupled with a 40% faster absorption rate ^[19]. Oral administration of 250mg of Curcuwin® Ultra+ on a daily basis demonstrates potent anti-inflammatory properties, effectively enhances joint mobility, flexibility, knee muscle strength and even healthy blood flow in patients with mild knee osteoarthritis. Simultaneously, it mitigates joint discomfort, curbs cartilage degradation and inflammation, thereby reducing the necessity for rescue medication to alleviate pain ^[20].

VITAMIN D3

Optimal levels of Vitamin D are crucial for healthy bone and cartilage metabolism. Insufficient concentrations of this vital nutrient can lead to adverse effects on calcium metabolism, osteoblastic activity, matrix ossification, bone density, and articular cartilage turnover ^[24].
