What do sprains and strains, arthritis, sports injuries, headaches, sinusitis and allergic rhinitis all have in common? Inflammation.
Inflammation is a core underlying feature of many chronic diseases and injuries. Inflammation, accompanied by pain, is an incredibly common symptom that we see amongst our patients. Typically, over-the-counter pain medications can have unpleasant side effects and sometimes can lead to dependence. Many natural and effective solutions to reduce inflammation and pain exist.
Inflammatrix by Cyto-Matrix is a great example of a supplement that provides a blend of ingredients to reduce inflammation and pain without hindering the recovery and healing processes of the body. It is a fast-acting, safe, effective, and natural alternative for non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and can aid in conditions like those listed above.
Some specific ingredient highlights include:
– Bioavailable Curcumin: a powerful anti-inflammatory herb that works to reduce pain, decrease stiffness, and increase range of motion in chronic pain conditions such as osteoarthritis (OA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
– Proteolytic enzymes: powerful anti-inflammatory and analgesic agents, with fibrinolytic activities, making them useful in both acute and chronic pain.
– Serrazymes: a type of plant enzyme that is known to help regulate immune cell migration injury sites and reduce pro-inflammatory pain signals. They also have fibrinolytic activity, which is particularly useful to prevent scar tissue formation synergistically with bromelain.
– Bromelain: is natural enzyme that is sourced from pineapple. Just like proteolytic enzymes, bromelain has anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and fibrinolytic activity. In addition, Bromelain can be effective at decreasing pain, swelling and joint stiffness in those with osteoarthritis.
Inflammatrix is an incredibly useful product for many conditions where inflammation plays a significant role. One of the best features of this supplement is that the recommended daily dose is typically only 1 capsule per day; whereas other anti-inflammatory supplements may have you taking 3 or more doses to get the same effect. This means worrying less about remembering to take multiple supplements and more time enjoying your life!
