Bones are covered with a layer of slippery cartilage. This enables them to glide against each other seamlessly. Unfortunately, through the normal aging process, the cartilage begins to wear out, impairing easy movement. Cartiflex® features two clinically tested ingredients for joint ease: BioCell® Collagen and chondroitin sulfate.*
BioCell Collagen is a patented ingredient whose composition is similar to your own joints. It provides highly absorbable hydrolyzed type II collagen peptides. These peptides are the main type of collagen in joint cartilage. It also contains hyaluronic acid, which lubricates the joints.* Finally, it includes chondroitin, which supports the matrix structure of cartilage.*
The ingredients in Cartiflex® have been shown in numerous double-blind, placebo-controlled human clinical studies to:
Cartiflex® also includes extra chondroitin sulfate.

BioCell Collagen® is a registered trademark of BioCell Technology LLC (U.S. Patents 6,025,327; 6,323,319; 6,780,841; 7,091,180; 7,799,348; other U.S. & foreign patents pending).
BioCell Collagen is clinically validated at 2 g daily, providing 400 mg of chondroitin. Stand-alone chondroitin sulfate studies typically use 800 mg/day. Cartiflex combines BioCell Collagen with extra chon- droitin to reach the clinically studied dosages of each ingredient.
Collagen is a key structural protein. It is one of the main constituents of connective tissue, which helps make up muscles, tendons, ligaments, cartilage, and skin. BioCell Collagen is a patented ingredient whose composition is similar to human joints, providing type II collagen peptides, hyaluronic acid, and chondroitin sulfate. Several double-blind, placebo-controlled human clinical trials have found BioCell Collagen improves joint mobility and promotes a more active daily life.*
Chondroitin Sulfate belongs to a family of molecules called glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) — highly viscous complex carbohydrates that are key constituents of connective tissue, which in turn helps make up muscles, tendons, ligaments, cartilage, and skin. GAGs provide structure to connective tissue and act as a buffer against compression.* Various human clinical trials have found that chondroitin sulfate helps maintain the space between the joints, supports joint flexibility, and preserves cartilage volume.*
Q: Is BioCell Collagen both hormone and antibiotic free?
A: BioCell Collagen is made from hormone and antibiotic free chicken sternal cartilage. Since it is a rich source of collagen type II, hyaluronic acid, and chondroitin sulfate it closely mirrors the composition of human articular cartilage.
