Secondary African root standardized in anti-inflammatory active ingredients
250 mg- Harpagophytum procumbens extract
- Standardized extract from the tuberous secondary roots of Harpagophytum procumbens, a plant native to the deserts of southern Africa traditionally nicknamed "devil's claw" because of its thorny fruits.
- Harpagosides, the main active compounds in the plant, modulate the biochemical pathways of inflammation by inhibiting specific enzymes (COX-2 and 5-LOX) — similar to those targeted by conventional anti-inflammatory drugs. This action helps limit the inflammatory cascade in joint and tendon tissues.
