Suntory Locomore Joint and ligament support, 180 tab x 2 pcs (set)

Suntory Locomore Joint and Ligament Support - a chondroprotector with a combination of a muscle component and a cartilage component that supports the smoothness of the knee joint, supplies the muscle ligaments of the joints that affect endurance when walking, as well as the cartilage ligaments that affect the smoothness of movement.

In a food additive Locomore it contains "muscle" components (imidazole peptide) obtained from fish and cartilage components (chondroitin, type II collagen, proteoglycan) obtained from sharks and salmon.

The drug helps to prevent the destruction of cartilage, slows down the process of degeneration of cartilage tissue, has a moderate anti-inflammatory effect, reduces pain at rest and when walking.

Suntory Locomore Joint Support last year (2018), it took the first place in the chondroprotectors market and sold more than 5 million units in Japan. According to the manufacturer's estimates, 82% of customers expressed the effective-positive effect of the supplement. 

The main ingredients in the composition: 

Glucosamine it participates in the biosynthesis of proteoglycans and hyaluronic acid, which are necessary for the formation of articular cartilage and the synthesis of collagen, contributes to the normal deposition of calcium in bone tissue.
Chondroitin it is used as a building material for the restoration of connective tissue and cartilage. It is also important for the formation of tendons, membranes and bones. Chondroitin is a necessary element for the synthesis of proteoglycans, it attracts synovial fluid to proteoglycan molecules and thus improves joint lubrication. Chondroitin also stimulates the production of collagen, an ingredient that forms shock — absorbing structures at the ends of joints.

Type 2 Collagen it is a peptide and a component of articular cartilage. Oral administration reduces autoimmunity to the body's own type 2 collagen, which leads to a lower degree of inflammation in cases of osteoarthritis and rheumatism and has a beneficial effect on the condition of the joints.

The dual muscle components-anserin and the unique ingredient quercetin, improve blood flow in the leg muscles and suppress muscle atrophy.

Anserin - an ingredient that improves blood flow in the leg muscles and supports the base of the muscles, suppressing muscle atrophy.

Quercetin it is one of the polyphenols contained in vegetables. It works to prevent the loss of the muscle component and is believed to suppress the weakening of the muscle strength of the legs. Suntory focused on quercetin, which is obtained from the Enju legume plant, based on years of research on polyphenols. After further research, the absorption capacity in the form of quercetin plus was improved.

The recommended age for taking the supplement is men and women over 60-65 years old
