Equistro Flexadin UCII 2 x 600g Twin Pack (Equine)
For optimal joint health and mobility.
FLEXADIN UCII is an original complementary feeding stuff. The formulation is based on a revolutionary concept, a patented natural collagen (UCII) in combination with methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) and chelated manganese, selected to support lasting joint health and mobility.
Flexadin UCII is particularly recommended for horses whose joint mechanism is subject to intense effort.
UCII®
- UCII®’s difference lies in its patented extraction process that ensures the undenatured (natural) preservation of its natural triple helix structure as opposed to the hydrolysed collagens often employed.
- A molecule of undenatured (natural) type II collagen (A triple helix 3D structure and associated epitopes corresponding to cartilage collagen)
- A molecule which privileges an interaction with the digestive tract and associated lymphoid tissues leading to «oral tolerisation»
- A significant improvement in joint comfort, superior to the one seen with GAGs
MANGANESE
- Helping to protect hyaluronic acid from the negative effects of oxidative reactions (Inflammatory joint pathologies = degradation of hyaluronic acid by free radicals)
- Helping conserve synovial fluid viscosity
MSM®
- A molecule rich in sulphur
- An ingredient that limits the potential loss of antioxidants from horses undergoing continuous effort (Significative improvement in the antioxidant enzyme levels (compared to not supplemented horses))
- A use that could help modulate the inflammatory response (reduction in the increase of NO relative to continued effort)
