FlexiMax Pain Relieving Natural Supplement
A new advanced joint care supplement containing one of nature's best kept secrets has been launched, offering a 100% natural choice for the 10 million British adults suffering mild to moderate joint pain in the UK. FlexiMax is ideal for sufferers of joint pain as it aids to alleviate inflammation. Joint pain caused by inflammatory disorders like arthritis can be extremely debilitating. With the ease of use of NSAIDS (Non steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs), it is easy to turn to medication to help relieve the symptoms of pain. But if there is a natural alternative, why not choose it?
Size : 60 Capsules
Tropical Mangosteen fruit extract offers hope to UK's 10 million joint pain sufferers...
By taking FlexiMax daily, you can help prevent painful joints as the high strength formula possesses anti-inflammatory effects that relieve symptoms effectively.
MangoSelect ™ - Clinically Studies proven to reduce joint pain
and improve flexibility
The VAS (visual analogical system) was used to score the pain levels of the patients in both groups. Each patient expressed a personal pain level where "0" was "No pain" and "10" was "Worse pain possible" - and named a figure along this scale at the start and at the end of the 5 day trial.
Group 1 - taking MangoSelect got a reduction in pain relief between 25% and 55%. The average pain relief amount over the 5 days was 34%
Group 2 - taking the Nimesulide got a reduction in pain relief between 33% and 75%. The average pain relief amount over the 5 days was 54%
The results show that MangoSelect is almost as effective as a proven licensed drug. Nimesulide is approved for the "treatment of acute pain" and the "symptomatic treatment of Osteoarthritis". This suggests that MangoSelect would also be effective for treating acute pains and arthritis related ailments.
Nimesulide is available in over 50 countries worldwide since 1985 but has now been withdrawn in many countries, including Ireland as it has side effects (liver toxicity). Most NSAID's have unpleasant side-effects. MangoSelect is a 100% natural fruit extract and has NO side effects and can be for long-term usage with no problems and continued results.
Dr Constantin Dallas, founder of Fytexia who carried out the research said: "In a double blind study of patients suffering arthritic pain and joint inflammation, we found that senior patients experienced a 50 per cent reduction in joint pain, and those suffering sports injuries reported a 31 per cent decrease. On average, patients reported a 37 per cent reduction in joint pain overall. In a further study inflammation was shown to be significantly reduced. For this reason, we believe Mangoselect® offers a unique natural and effective treatment for joint pain ."
The study could mean that for many of the 10 million people who have a daily struggle with joint pain and inflammation there may be a natural alternative to traditional medicines such as NSAIDS (Nonsteriodal anti-inflammatory drugs), which can have side effects that can include damage to the lining of the stomach and intestines when used long term .
To complement Mangoselect, Fleximax also contains Turmeric, Aloe Vera and Olive leaf extract, all traditionally used to aid joint health and flexibility.
• Turmeric has the unique ability of using its antioxidant powers to seek out and destroy free radicals in the body which contribute to pain and swelling.
• Mangosteen exhibits anti-histamine and anti-inflammatory properties. Clinically proven to reduce joint pain, Mangosteen is the alternative for joint health formulations.
• Aloe Vera's has been shown to successfully repair damaged tissue by regenerating cells. Because of it's anti inflammatory properties and effective pain relief properties, aloe vera can reduce the swelling and ease the pain in the joint.

As Used By Celebrity Lorraine Kelly
Is Prevention Better Than Cure - Queen of the Breakfast Shows says Definitely!
Name the diet and exercise regime and Lorraine will testify she's tried them all. But running the London marathon has helped to put everything in perspective and highlighted the importance of looking after her joint health as well as everything else.
Lorraine admits that she comes from a strong and healthy family but that doesn't mean that she takes her health for granted. Lorraine looks after herself by eating well and exercising but during and after her training for the marathons, her joints were the first thing to speak to her.
Lorraine said: "I want to be as healthy as possible and love walking my dog, playing tennis and cycling - so it's important to take a supplement that helps keep my joints supple."
She also prefers to take something natural rather than reaching for the painkillers and believes in prevention rather than cure, but with arthritis in the family she knows the importance of looking after her joints. She said: "I work hard to make sure I'm as healthy as I can be, eating well and exercising but I still know I need to look after my joint health."
At a spritely 51, Lorraine takes Pilates classes, has taken up tennis - an impact sport which helps to support the bones - and would rather spend her time cycling to her appointments than taking a taxi or the tube when in London. Lorraine said: "I'm not one for popping pills but I do take vitamins and minerals and I love it when something that really helps me is natural like FlexiMax."
Lorraine has discovered FlexiMax, a supplement to help support joint health that contains a unique ingredient Mangoselect®, a high dose formulation of Mangosteen which is a tropical fruit that has been shown to alleviate joint pain and swelling.
Knowing that she is actively looking after her joints by taking a supplement like FlexiMax means that Lorraine is more confident that she is doing all she can to look after her health and in particular her joints."It's great to keep fit and I love walking but you sometimes need a bit of help to make sure your joints don't suffer!"
Lorraine continues to present her ITV self titled breakfast show and will be visiting Peru in November for Comic Relief.
MangoSelect ™ - Clinically Studies proven to reduce joint pain
and improve flexibility
A clinical study was conducted in comparing MangoSelect with a well known NSAID (Non Steroidal Anti
Inflammatory Drug) called Nimesulide. In the study - 24 patients took part in the Clinical trial. They had
either Arthritic pains, inflammation of tendons or post traumatic inflammation.
There were two groups formed:
- Group 1: 5 male and 7 female, Treatment with MangoSelect taking 600mg per day for 5 days
- Group 2: 6 male and 6 female, Treatment with Nimesulide taking 100mg per day for 5 days
The VAS (visual analogical system) was used to score the pain levels of the patients in both groups. Each patient expressed a personal pain level where "0" was "No pain" and "10" was "Worse pain possible" - and named a figure along this scale at the start and at the end of the 5 day trial.
Clinical Results:
All participants in both Groups got a reduction in pain levels from 25% up to 75%.Group 1 - taking MangoSelect got a reduction in pain relief between 25% and 55%. The average pain relief amount over the 5 days was 34%
Group 2 - taking the Nimesulide got a reduction in pain relief between 33% and 75%. The average pain relief amount over the 5 days was 54%
The results show that MangoSelect is almost as effective as a proven licensed drug. Nimesulide is approved for the "treatment of acute pain" and the "symptomatic treatment of Osteoarthritis". This suggests that MangoSelect would also be effective for treating acute pains and arthritis related ailments.
Nimesulide is available in over 50 countries worldwide since 1985 but has now been withdrawn in many countries, including Ireland as it has side effects (liver toxicity).

The active ingredient in Mangoselect is xanthones. Xanthones are natural compounds that work as potent antioxidants and provide the body with powerful plant-based nutritional benefits such as excellent anti-inflammatory properties. Of all the known sources for xanthones, the mangosteen fruit supplies some of the highest amounts found in nature.
MangoSelect, extracted from the Mangosteen fruit has been clinically established as an extremely proficient anti-inflammatory agent. Those who consume Mangosteen extract regularly have a good, general wellbeing have a stronger immune system and have a greater enthusiasm for life. When taken regularly, Mangosteen can improve joint flexibility and reduce painful joints.
To complement Mangoselect, Fleximax also contains Turmeric, Aloe Vera and Olive leaf extract, all traditionally used to aid joint health and flexibility.
• Turmeric has the unique ability of using its antioxidant powers to seek out and destroy free radicals in the body which contribute to pain and swelling.
• Mangosteen exhibits anti-histamine and anti-inflammatory properties. Clinically proven to reduce joint pain, Mangosteen is the alternative for joint health formulations.
• Aloe Vera's has been shown to successfully repair damaged tissue by regenerating cells. Because of it's anti inflammatory properties and effective pain relief properties, aloe vera can reduce the swelling and ease the pain in the joint.
Case Studies
Jane Curry
Age 55
Over the last couple of years, I've noticed my joints becoming more painful and stiff, especially when I get up in morning. It's my neck, knees and left hip that seem to suffer the most, and it can be really painful at times. The most frustrating thing is that the pain makes it difficult for me to get a good night's sleep so I'm often tired and not feeling at my best.
The nature of my job means I spend a lot of time sat at a desk, so I do like to keep active by visiting the gym and talking long walks. But when my joints are playing up, it's difficult for me to hold down an exercise routine.
I'm not really one for taking lots of painkillers so I tried dealing with the problem by managing my weight and also visiting an osteopath who said it was caused by wear and tear over the years.
I have also started taking a natural supplement called FlexiMax which helps to reduce the inflammation of my joints.

Ways to improve your joint health
We do not tend to think about joint health until later life or once an injury or problem occurs, but whatever our age, everyone should be thinking about the health of their joints and what they can do to protect them.
Nutrition
• Eat at least 5 different fruit and vegetables a day, the vitamins in these foods, can be very beneficial for joint mobility
• Eat three portions of oily fish such as tuna, mackerel and salmon which are all high in Omega 3 per week as they may help maintain healthy cartilage and lubricate your joints
• Maintain good hydration and a flow of nutrients to the joints, drink 6-8 large glasses of water a day
Exercise and lifestyle
• Good joints require regular physical activity as this keeps the muscles around the joints strong and replenishes lubrication to the cartilage of the joint.
• There are many types of exercise that limit the stress on your joints. These include swimming, cross-training, cycling, rowing, yoga
• Regular stretching is vital as joints depend on flexible and strong muscles around them for stability – videos of simple yoga or tai chi moves can help here
• Warm showers and baths can help warm up sore and stiff joints and muscles, especially in the morning

I have only been taking this for a few weeks so probably can`t tell absolutely how good it will prove to be. So far it DOES appear to have given me increased movement in my usually very stiff finger joints. Optimistic that the longer I take it the better it will get - time will tell..... ..
