OSTEOARTHRITIS
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disorder and is the most type of arthritis suffered by the old and the obese. Joint deterioration and inflammation are direct results of increased aging-related stress and the wear and tear of joints.
Osteoarthritis is brought about by cartilage breakdown and synovial proliferation which cause much pain and joint stiffness. Thus, OA sufferers are confined to an almost inoperative lifestyle as their condition worsens with physical activities.
5-LOX & MMP-3 – THE KEY ENZYMES INVOLVED IN OSTEOARTHRITIS (OA) & RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS (RA).
5-LOX is a member of the lipoxy-genase family of enzymes. 5-LOX itself facilitates undesirable cell division changes, It also plays a key role in the biosynthesis of pro-inflammatory compounds ( leukotrienes) that mediate attacks to joints, arterial walls, and other tissues. The typical modern diet rich red meat, poultry, eggs and dairy products, trigger the body to produce more 5-LOX, worsening the inflammation progress.
Matrix metalloproteinase 3 (MMP-3) is an enzyme that breakdown proteins and peptides in the synovial tissues in response to inflammation, and that leads to cartilage destruction in RA and OA. In the extracellular space, MMP-3 triggers microglia to produce pro-inflammatory and cytotoxic molecules which further degrade cartilage matrix and other components of connective tissue in the joints.
BOSWELLIA SERATTA
In recent years, the gum resin extracted from the ancient plant, Boswellia Seratta, has gained considerable attention as a potent anti-inflammatory, anti-arthritic agent. 3-0-acetyl-11-keto-beta boswellic acid (AKBA) is the most active compound of Boswellia extract and is a potent inhibitor of 5-lopoxygenase (5-LOX) and MMP-3.
TRUFLEX
TRUFLEX is formulated with clinically proven Boswellia serrata gum resin extract rich in AKBA. Unlike other Boswellia serrata extracts which have poorer bioavailability, TRUFLEX employs a patented enrichment process, selecting the most active AKBA and blend it with the know-how Boswellia seratta non-volatile oil extract. This synergistic composition results at least 20% bioactive AKBA for direct absorption, making TRUFLEX a more powerful ingredient for overall joint health, far more efficacious compared to the existing Boswellia extracts

Independent testing showed +99% kill of bacteria & mold in both the air & surfaces*. It has also been recently proven to kill COVID-19 (MHV-1 Surrogate) through independent TGA registered laboratory*.
Anti-microbial agents can either be biocides which kills bacteria, viruses or molds within 15 seconds of contact or biostats which can kill within 15 minutes.
All chemical microbial agents are biocides. Biocides in the process of instant killing can release mycotoxins which is another form of toxins.
San-Air is a biostat which does not cause any release of mycotoxins. When San-Air gel evaporates into the air, and comes into contact with air borne particles or surfaces, the active ingredient in San-Air causes bacteria and viruses to stop reproducing and molds to suffocate**.
