Cortaflex HA is an even more powerful version of the original Cortaflex.
It has the addition of Hyaluronic Acid (that's the HA bit!) and versions are available for horses, dogs & cats and people.
For people, there are Cortaflex HA Capsules. These have double the strength of the regular ingredients PLUS the addition of Hyaluronic Acid.
Cortaflex HA Capsules are the most powerful joint supplements you can buy.
You can get Cortaflex HA Capsules from our "human" website Natural Joint Health.
You may have tried supplements containing chondroitin and glucosamine and are probably still suffering some joint discomfort... so... try Cortaflex HA and feel the benefit within just a few days!
In all mammalian joints, the ends of the bones that "rub together" (or... articulate) are covered in cartilage. This helps the bones articulate smoothly and without wearing away or causing pain.
However, that's not all! Each joint is enclosed in a "capsule" and this capsule is filled with Synovial Fluid which acts as a lubricant and shock absorber - literally "joint oil" - helping the whole joint work better.
Hyaluronic Acid is a major component of Synovial Fluid AND is a key component of cartilage, responsible for the viscoelastic behaviour of Synovial Fluid and the hydration and elastic strength of cartilage.
Through wear and tear or injury, cartilage gets damaged and the quality Synovial Fluid deteriorates.
In Cortaflex HA the Hyaluronic Acid is vegetable sourced (not extracted from Rooster Combs as with other forms!) and provides an extra boost to joint fluid, maximising the joints' shock absorbing properties.
Hyaluronic Acid is NOT just found in the joints but is distributed, and used, widely throughout the body - especially in the skin and the eyes.
In the skin - Hyaluronic Acid is involved in tissue repair and because of this it is a common ingredient in skin care products. An injectible version of HA has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration as a treatment for filling soft tissue defects such as facial wrinkles. Its effect is to add volume under the skin by "plumping up" the skin tissue - thus smoothing wrinkles away.
In the eyes - high levels of HA are found in the vitreous humour of the eyes. Its first medical use was involved in assisting the healing of the eye following surgery.
Hyaluronic Acid has been likened to the cement in a brick wall - it is the "scaffolding", or support structure, around living cells - especially in the eyes, joints and skin.
The benefits of Cortaflex HA for joints are undisputed, it may also be very good for the eyes and skin!
Equine Cortaflex HA and all versions of Canine & Feline Cortaflex are available from our "animal" website Natural Animal Health where you can also buy Human Cortaflex HA.
If all you need are Human Cortaflex HA Capsules (or the regular human capsules) then visit our "human" website Natural Joint Health.
ALL versions of Cortaflex for dogs & cats are now fortified with Hyaluronic Acid - liquid, capsules and powder.
This makes the new range of Cortaflex the most effective ever in supporting the health of every joint in the body, providing key nutrients for lubrication and felxibility of movement.
You can get all versions of Canine & Feline Cortaflex from our "animal" website Natural Animal Health - see the bottom of the centre section of this page.
Regular Equine Cortaflex is also fortified with Hyaluronic Acid but for horses and ponies in hard work or those who have experienced excessive wear and tear there is Equine Cortaflex HA which has much higher levels of Hyaluronic Acid.
Again, Equine Cortaflex and the HA version are available from our "animal" website.
