NATURAL NUTRITION SILICIUM Joint Wellness - 120 Vegetable Capsules

Silicium Formule Intégrale, the vegan reference formula for joints

Synergistic composition of 6 ingredients renowned for joint well-being

Silicon

Naturally present in the body (3 to 7 g), this essential mineral plays an important role in connective tissue (bones, tendons, ligaments, cartilage) and epithelial tissue (skin, mucous membranes). Its content decreases with age. Our complex provides plant silicon in the form of bamboo extract, which helps restore joint comfort and mobility, and highly bioavailable organic silicon (orthosilicic acid), as well as :

Glucosamine

Naturally present in connective tissue, it plays an essential role in maintaining the integrity of joint cartilage. In many dietary supplements, L-glucosamine is synthesized in the laboratory from chitin extracted from crustaceans (shrimps, langoustines, crabs, lobsters), presenting an allergenic risk for people allergic or intolerant to seafood and not suitable for vegans. Laboratoire Natural Nutrition has selected a glucosamine of non-animal origin, obtained through a biofermentary process.

Chondroitin

Naturally present in connective tissue, it is an essential constituent of bone and cartilage substance. In most dietary supplements, chondroitin is of animal origin (bovine, porcine or marine). For ethical reasons and to suit everyone, even vegetarians and vegans, Laboratoire Natural Nutrition has selected an innovative ingredient: Phytodroitin®. Composed of seaweed extracts (ulva lactuca linnaeus and fucus vesiculosus) and sodium hyaluronate, this plant-derived complex mimics the structure and composition of animal-derived chondroitin. It contains no animal derivatives.

Vitamin D

By promoting intestinal absorption of calcium, this vitamin contributes to bone mineralization, helping to build and maintain strong bones. It thus contributes to normal blood calcium levels and the maintenance of normal bone structure. Instead of the vitamin D3 traditionally derived from sheep lanolin, Natural Nutrition has chosen a vitamin of plant origin, derived from boreal lichen. This lichen, found in Canada, Alaska and Lapland, is the result of the symbiosis of an alga and a fungus. It has a vitamin D3 concentration of around 1 to 2 per 1,000 (1 kg of vitamin D3 per 1,000 kg of lichen).

Calcium

99% of the body's calcium contributes to the formation and strength of bones and teeth. At any age, it is essential to ensure permanent and sufficient coverage of calcium requirements in order to maintain normal bone structure and preserve bone capital.
