DEVIL’S CLAW (Harpagophytum procumbens)
- Devil’s claw is a perennial plant that thrives in dry conditions in the southern part of Africa.

- The other iridoid glycosides include harpagide and procumbide.

- It is well- known for its analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects of these substance, and also the ability to relieve osteoarthritis and lower back pain.
INCENSE TREE (Boswellia serrata)
- The incense tree is found primarily in India, has anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties.
- Physalis Joints+ makes use of the resin of the boswellia serrata which contains the active components that are known as boswellic acids. Boswellic acids inhibit the production of leukotrienes that are normally responsible for instigating and perpetuating inflammatory reactions.
WILLOW (Salix alba)
- Salix alba is a fast-growing tree that is often found growing close to water. The salix extract in Physalis Joints+ is standardised at 15-20% of salicin, which is the natural equivalent of synthetic acetylsalicylic acid or aspirin, helps reducing pain and swelling, also with analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects.
- Salicylic acid not only causes the blood sugar level to rise more slowly but also allows it to decrease more slowly. This is because the salicin compounds in salix alba are more slowly metabolized than synthetic salicylate compounds. As a result, the pain-relieving effect lasts for longer.
- The anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of willow may also possibly be contributed by its active components include the polyphenols, such as flavonoids and catechins.

- This unique patented complex ensures that the curcumin is optimally available in the bloodstream and for the target tissues. Scientific and clinical studies have confirmed that LongvidaR is 95 times more biologically available than a standard curcumin extract and that its formula also prevents it from being broken down in the acid-rich environment of the stomach.
- Curcumin has strong anti-oxidative properties (it captures free radicals) and a powerful anti-inflammatory These are by far the most important processes that contributeto the protection of the joints by curcumin.
VITAMIN C
- Physalis Articulations+ also provides 180 mg of vitamin C witheach daily dose. Vitamin C or ascorbic acid functions as a co-enzyme in the production of collagen from amino acids. As a result, vitamin C helps to create stable collagen fibres and, consequently, healthy bones and cartilage.
