Key Ingredients

Glucosamine has a well-documented ability to maintain joints, cartilage and collagen. We use a novel, vegetarian source of glucosamine hydrochloride, not derived from shellfish but from fermenting corn, activated by Aspergillus Niger and in its more bioavailable form – making it suitable for vegans and people allergic to shellfish.

Vitamin C* as a non-acidic form of Magnesium Ascorbate contributes to the normal function of connective tissue and collagen synthesis.

Vitamin B6 is required for protein synthesis and healthy cell replication.

Rutin supports the integrity of small arteries and veins under the skin and stabilises the effects of vitamin C.

Rosehip, Rutin, Quercetin, Vitaflavan® Grape Seed Extract and Green Tea Extract. All sources of a range of beneficial bioflavonoids and polyphenols to help support and maintain tissue integrity and the healthy function of the microcirculation.

* Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin. Vitamin B6 contributes to normal protein and glycogen metabolism.

CONNECTING THE STRANDS OF CONNECTIVE TISSUE

Connective tissue constitutes the immediate environment of every cell in the body, wrapping and uniting all structures with its moist, fibrous, strands. It is responsible for gluing cells into colonies, defining shapes, forming and suspending them into their correct relationships within us and also anchors skin to muscle.

Think of dense randomly arranged bundles of collagen fibers, fibroblasts (found in fascia dermis of the skin, and membrane capsules around organs) and tendons. Then rethink elastin connective tissue as branching elastic fibers and fibroblasts allowing tissues to recoil after stretching working alongside cartilage with its flexible and rubbery matrix.

WHAT IS THE SPRING BACK OF YOUR SKIN LIKE?

Imagine touching a freshly baked sponge cake that gives you that beautiful spring back when baked to perfection. This is what we want to feel when we gently press our skin – that same beautiful bounce of ‘pillow like’ plumpness and velocity. And we’d ideally love to keep it that way – for as long as we can, at least.

Everyone talks about collagen; everyone can’t get enough of it – so much so people are drinking it. We take a different approach. We are about nurturing what nature has blessed us with, because even though we are all aware collagen levels decline as we age, we still have ample to hold onto.

However, collagen is just one aspect of your connective tissue – there are other important connections to nurture.

LET’S LINK IT UP

(And here is another analogy for you.)

Let us refer to the mycelium – a genius interconnected matrix (also called the Wood Wide Web) that is made up of incredibly tiny ‘threads’ of the greater fungal organism that wrap around or bore into tree roots, creating what is called a ‘mycorrhizal network’ which connect individual plants to efficiently transfer water, nitrogen, carbon and other minerals.

And just like with the mycelium, resilient youthful skin is all about the delivery of nutrition.
