BioCell Collagen^® is a concentrated source of bioavailable, hydrolyzed collagen type II, chondroitin sulfate, and hyaluronic acid. A patented process produces a low molecular weight mixture of components that are easily absorbed and readily available for use in the body to protect connective tissues, promote cartilage synthesis, support repair, and improve the overall appearance of the skin.^† Collagen type II, the most abundant protein found in joint cartilage, helps support new cartilage synthesis and quenches free radicals in joint tissue.^† Hyaluronic acid is an important nourishing agent that helps to retain the natural moisture content of skin tissue and joint fluids.^† Chondroitin sulfate supports synthesis of cartilage tissue and inhibits cartilage-degrading enzymes.^† OptiMSM^®, a sulfur and methyl donor, supports joint structure and comfort. Vitamin C is required for hydroxylation, a biochemical process required for cartilage synthesis.^† Two capsules twice daily supplies approximately 1 g of collagen type II protein, 400 mg of chondroitin sulfate, 200 mg of hyaluronic acid, and 1 g of OptiMSM^®.

Iodine is an essential element. Although its main function is in the production of thyroid hormones T3 and T4, other organs in the body have a need for iodine in order to function normally.

Biofilm consists of microorganisms encased within a self-produced matrix of exopolysaccharides and exoproteins that strongly adheres to interfaces and resists dislodgement. Microorganisms residing within biofilms are highly resistant to antimicrobials including antibiotics and bacteriocins produced by probiotics. InterFase^® is a unique enzyme formulation that is especially designed to disrupt the biofilm matrix that embeds gastrointestinal organisms.^† Enzymes in InterFase^® are selected for their ability to lyse the extracellular polymers commonly found in biofilm as well as degrade bacterial and yeast cell wall structures.^† The enzyme blend in InterFase^® was developed using in vitro testing of antibiofilm activity and was found to have significant antibiofilm activity resulting in meaningful degradation of undesirable biofilm communities.^† InterFase^® is intended for use in conjunction with efforts to support normal gastrointestinal function and microbiota.^† As an adjunct, it is best combined with use of a high-strength, broad-spectrum, multispecies probiotic formulation and a prebiotic to encourage the formation of healthy intestinal microbial biofilm communities.^† The capsules should be taken away from meals to maximize the enzyme effects.
