L-Proline, L-Lysine and Vitamin C are central in connective tissue health. Proline is a key building block of the connective tissue proteins collagen and elastin. Glucosamine Sulfate and Chondroitin Sulfate are substrates for the synthesis of GAGs and proteoglycans (PGs), which are part of the basement membranes of connective tissue (e.g. skin, internal epithelia, intima of blood vessels, heart valves, lens and sclera of the eyes, synovial fluid and lining of joints). N-Acetyl-DGlucosamine is one of the disaccharides that makes up hyaluronic acid, a GAG that forms the backbone of proteoglycans and is a major component of synovial fluid and also acts as a free radical scavenger in synovial tissues. Horsetail extract provides a rich source of naturally occurring and readily absorbed silicon, a trace mineral critical for connective tissue and skeletal development and maintenance. Boron supports the regulation of vitamin D, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium and hormone levels, with a net effect of opposing bone mineral loss and promoting bone anabolism and protection. Lysyl oxidase is a copper dependant enzyme that is essential for stabilization of the extra-cellular matrix, specifically the enzymatic cross-linking of collagen and elastin. Zinc is required by over 300 enzymes in the body, involved with nucleic acid synthesis, protein metabolism and connective tissue repair and maintenance. Zinc, copper and manganese induce the production of superoxide dismutase (SOD), which converts damaging superoxide free radicals into harmless metabolites. Selenium and Vitamin E work synergistically in replenishing key antioxidant systems. Magnesium and Calcium regulate cell trafficking of nutrients and wastes and help regulate cellular energy mechanisms vital for connective tissue maintenance and repair. Bromelain is an enzyme derived from pineapple that has systemic proteolytic activity, which supports the body’s repair function.
