Chondroitin or Glucosamine ? Both ? Or Cortaflex ?
Chondroitin and Glucosamine are widely believed to stimulate the joint cells to produce better quality joint fluid (synovial fluid, which acts as a cushion), and to trigger the cartilage matrix to help prevent damage to the joints.
Cortaflex is an effective human joint supplement because it contains the key refined, pharmaceutical-grade isolates of Chondroitin and Glucosamine. These smaller molecules are easily absorbed into the bloodstream, where they filter through the capillaries to their intended destination – the joints !

Once the key isolates are present in the joints, they trigger the body to produce its own natural Chondroitin and Glucosamine.
Cortaflex provides both the stimulus and building blocks for natural joint health – that is the Cortaflex difference !
Cortaflex has been clinically proven in the equine world to improve joint function. Our next project is a study exploring the effectiveness of Cortaflex for Humans – watch this space !
How is Cortaflex different from other Glucosamine
and Chondroitin products ?
Cortaflex is beyond Glucosamine and Chondroitin ! Molecules of Glucosamine
and Chondroitin, even in their purest form, are simply too large to travel
efficiently to the soft tissues of the joint.

Instead of loading Cortaflex with thousands of milligrams of Glucosamine and Chondroitin, we have specially formulated our product using their key isolates:
Glutamine
Glutamic Acid
Glucuronic Acid
Glycine
Proline
The unique formulation of Cortaflex allows these building blocks, assisted by Sulphur, to be more readily absorbed by the body. We only use pharmaceutical grade ingredients in Cortaflex, so you are assured of getting a safe, natural, quality product.
How does Cortaflex work ?
Glucosamine and Chondroitin are produced naturally by the body. These two substances provide the building blocks for cartilage and cushioning joint fluid.
Cortaflex, a nutritional dietary supplement, relies on the bloodstream to deliver key nutrients throughout the body; it is formulated with the key isolates of Chondroitin and Glucosamine:
Glutamine
Glutamic Acid
Glucuronic Acid
Glycine
Proline
The key isolates used in Cortaflex stimulate the body to produce its own Glucosamine and Chondroitin !
These smaller molecules travel efficiently from the bloodstream to the soft tissues of the joint. The larger molecules of Chondroitin and Glucosamine, are not processed as effectively by the body, as their movement from the bloodstream is restricted.

I see that there are 3 versions of Cortaflex - Human, Canine and Feline, and Equine. What is the difference? Can I give Equine Cortaflex to my dog ?
There are fundamental differences in the formulation of the three versions. Horses require different nutrients than dogs or humans, for example equine Cortaflex contains copper at levels which are beneficial to horses but not recommended for dogs.
Aside from having unique combinations of nutrients, the three versions of Cortaflex are also blended to be palatable to the species for which it was intended ! Human Cortaflex is in capsule form; the Canine and Feline Cortaflex is beef and liver flavoured; the Equine Cortaflex is alfalfa-based.
How long does Cortaflex need to be taken ? Is it supposed to be administered as a course ?
Cortaflex is a nutritional dietary joint supplement - not a medicine. As such, Cortaflex can be taken indefinitely ! We believe taking Cortaflex on a regular basis can help to protect joints from the stress and strain of modern daily life.
I don't actually have any pain or trouble with my joints… is it ok for me to take Cortaflex anyway ?
Cortaflex is safe for people of all ages and physical conditions ! It is a joint supplement for natural joint health - not a medicine. If you are eager to maintain an active lifestyle, doing the things you love to do for as long as possible, then Cortaflex is for you.
Do I need to take Cortaflex at a specific time of the day, or with food ?
Many people take Cortaflex at the same time every day, simply because it is easier to remember to take it ! It is not necessary to take it at a specific time of day, nor is it necessary to take Cortaflex with food.
I am on other medication - can I take Cortaflex ?
Cortaflex is not a medicine - it is an all-natural dietary supplement. There are no known side effects of Cortaflex, and there are no known contra-indications. We always advise you to consult your doctor if you have any concerns about prescribed medication.
