Celadrin 350 mg 90 Softgels

Product description: Celadrin® - fatty acids esterified into a wax-like form that stays in cell membranes instead of being burned for energy. Supports joint comfort and mobility. A different route to the joint: it does not add building blocks, it looks after the membranes of the cells already there. Nature has a trick for making fat last: it turns it into wax. Bees do it, the jojoba shrub does it, and the whale from whose oil the word "cetyl" comes did it best of all. With this in mind, Swanson developed Celadrin 350 mg 90 Softgels! Celadrin® is a proprietary blend of ordinary fatty acids - myristic, myristoleic, oleic, palmitoleic and palmitic - that have been esterified, bonded to a long-chain alcohol so that they take on a waxy, stable form. The change matters because of what the body does with a fatty acid: normally it burns it for energy or stores it, and either way it is gone within hours. An esterified fatty acid is handled differently - it is not a fuel, so it is left alone, and it settles into the place fats belong in a living cell, the membrane. That is the whole idea of Celadrin: fatty acids delivered in a form that stays where it is put. It comes in a small softgel that fits easily into a daily routine.First and foremost, Celadrin supports joint comfort and mobility. Its route is different from the joint supplements that supply building material: it does not add bricks to cartilage, it looks after the membranes of the cells that are already there - the cells of the joint lining, the cartilage and the tissues around them. A membrane rich in these esterified fatty acids stays more fluid and flexible, and a flexible membrane is one that lets nutrients in and keeps its structure intact under load. Because the fatty acids are esterified they persist in the membrane rather than being burned, which is why the effect is built up by taking the softgel regularly through the day, as the label suggests, rather than in one dose. Taken daily, it arrives in a steady, measured amount.Support your body at the highest level with Swanson Celadrin!
