We at DTC Health recommend FlexicosePlus® for both athletes and those looking for a more potent and natural formula. Athletes are particularly sensitive to joint trauma or injury due to their increased activity and pounding on their joints. Over time, this can lead to permanent joint complications. Because athletes push themselves harder and faster than average people, their bodies (specifically their joints) tend to wear out or become injured more often than the average person.
With FlexicosePlus® you can experience all the benefits of our original Flexicose®, now with extra strength Chondroitin and MSM. FlexicosePlus® also contains Hyaluronic Acid (HA) and all-natural sweetener, flavor and color. Due to overwhelming customer demand, FlexicosePlus® is sweetened with Stevia only!
What is Stevia?
Stevia is an all-natural sweetener that is safe for diabetics and hypoglycemics due to its zero glycemic index. In December of 2008, it was FDA approved as a food additive. It contains zero calories and zero carbohydrates making it ideal for weight management. Stevia is a non-addictive sweetener that has been clinically tested in humans and animals and has been used by humans without negative effect for centuries. We chose to use Stevia only in FlexicosePlus® because it is safe for everybody to take and individual users can "doctor it up" with any sweetener they choose, if desired.
What is Hyaluronic Acid (HA)?
Hyaluronic acid is a type of polysaccharide that occurs naturally in the human body and is central to regulating cell growth and renewal. In fact, it is found extensively in connective, epithelial, and neural cells. It assists in the repair of joint connective tissue, induces the body's own HA production and increases cartilage synthesis.
