3 effective ingredients for joints, muscles and immune system

Cartimare MSM contains three active ingredients for joints, muscles and immune system: MSM, green shell mussel and shark cartilage.

MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) is organic sulphur compound, which is an indispensable component in human nutrition. It is found in every cell in the body and the body requires sulphur for many its functions. It is the fourth most plentiful mineral in the body and essential for life. MSM is a component of the proteins necessary for the formation of skin, hair, nails and muscle and also of bones, joints, ligaments, strings, teeth and collagen. MSM may have preventive effects on degenerative arthritis of gristle and provide help on its reformation and reduces the formation of scar tissue.

MSM is water-soluble and does not accumulate in the body.  MSM is a nutritional mineral that can help to normalize the immune system. MSM helps to relievee pain and inflammation in several ways. It blocks pain impulses by precluding their passage along C fibres within nerves. MSM promotes blood flow, which enhances the healing processes. It reduces muscle spasm, which is present when the musculoskeletal system is damaged. MSM is used for relief from muscle pain, joint pain, gastrointestinal distress, inflammation of the mucous membranes and allergic reactions. MSM supports normal immune and respiratory function.

Green shell mussel (Perna Canaliculus) contains plenty of omega-3 fatty acids (EPA, DHA and ETA). Especially ETA-fatty acids (eicosatetraenoic acid) are very reactive and participate in many different functions in the human metabolism. In inflammation reactions, like in joint inflammations, the ETA-fatty acids inhibit the cyclo-oxygenase pathway (COX) that converts Arachidonic Acid into inflammatory prostaglandins. ETA-fatty acids inhibit the formation of the intermediary agents creating from Arachidonic acid. ETA-fatty acids decrease expressly the formation of l eucotrins and prostaglandins which stimulate the inflammation reactions. In this task ETA’s have turned out to be very effective in reducing pain, swelling and stiffness in joints and by improving the mobility of the joints.

Shark cartilage contains about 40 different proteins which operate in the joints as “lubricants” and help them to maintain their normal functioning and bring relief for the rigidity and swelling of joints. According to studies shark cartilage contains components which improve as well the immune defence. Sharks have been interested scientists because despite of all environmental pollution sharks have very seldom any diseases. Shark’s very strong immune system protects them effectively against bacteria, viruses, chemicals and other adverse factors.
