Solutions Pet Products | Inflammax – 8oz

What is this product used for?

This product is formulated to assist with inflammation and pain.

Yucca schidigera is a root plant known for reducing inflammation and pain. It contains resveratrol and inhibits the initiation of multiple inflammatory responses.

*This product is not intended to assist with repair of tissues that may be causing pain. This product can help decrease inflammation (which may further degrade the tissues if not controlled) while using other products in tandem to assist with structural support such as:

• Bone Broth (contains minerals)
• Fermented Fish Stock (contains minerals, collagen, elastin, glucosamine* and chondroitin*)
• Trachea or other Cartilage chew
• Fermented Chicken Feet (contains all the same things as the Fish Stock and Turkey Kvass)

Ingredient Highlights

Cat’s Claw

Uncaria tomentosa (bark)

Cat’s Claw herb is from the bark of the South American Uncaria Tomentosa tree. It possesses cytostatic, anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory activity as well as mutagenic and antimutagenic properties. Studies show that Cat’s Claw is beneficial for:

• Cancer – while it may benefit many cancers, in Melanoma it displayed a 9-13% decrease in tumor size/weight
• Arthritis
• Gastritis
• Reducing fatigue Stimulating the immune system
• Stabilizing solid tumor cancers for as long as 8 months in some patients
• Decreasing side effects to chemotherapy and radiation
• Restoring cellular DNA
• Preventing mutations and cell damage caused by Chemotherapy drugs
• Modulating the immune system (such as the proliferation of normal T and B lymphocytes)
• Modulating certain cytokines, including IL-1 and IL-6, and RNF-a
• Myelostimulating effects, through myelopoiesis stimulation and colony-stimulating factors (G-CSF)
• Thrombocytopenia
• Increasing resistance to diseases that occur when the body is stressed, malnourished, or affected by medicationy.

Chuchuhuasi

Maytenus krukovii (bark)

Multiple studies have established that Chuchuhuasi has powerful anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties. Antioxidant alkaloids found in Chuchuhuasi trunk bark inhibit enzyme production of PKC (protein kinase C). Chuchuhuasi’s ability to inhibit the PKC enzyme is one reason it’s been stated to be effective against arthritis, rheumatism, certain cancers and tumors, asthma, and cardiovascular disease. It has also been shown to help prevent some forms of nerve damage by its ability to inhibit aldose reductase activity.

Spikenard

Aralia racemosa (root)

The key bio-active compound in Spikenard, continentalic acid, has been shown in studies to block the enzymes that cause the breakdown and deterioration of cartilage in the joints. It is anti-inflammatory, anti-arthritic, and supports joint health through the aging process.

Feverfew

Tanacetum parthenium (leaf)

Also known as “medieval aspirin,” scientists have found a plethora of sesquiterpenes, flavonoids, tannins, etc which are responsible for its medicinal effects. Some of its terpenes are able to prevent extracellular calcium from entering smooth muscle tissues, thus preventing pain, Feverfew inhibits pro-inflammatory prostaglandins and serotonin (5-HT)-mediated activities which could be why it reduces fever and relieves inflammation in the muscles and nervous system.

*Feverfew is related to ragweed and may cause allergies in some.

Yucca

Wild harvested Yucca Schidigera

Yucca is a rich source of steroidal saponins. It has the ability to reduce the inflammatory response. Yucca also inhibits the production of inflammatory nitric oxide. Yucca is also as effective at killing giardia protozoa as Metronidazole**. Yucca phenolics are free radical scavengers and suppress ROS (reactive oxygen species) which stimulate inflammatory responses.

Diatomaceous Earth

 Amorphous Silica

Diatomaceous Earth is a powdery substance made from tiny creatures called diatoms. Diatoms are microalgae which are found in waterways and soils around the world. Diatomaceous Earth contains a significant amount of safe, non-synthetic, symbiotic silica. Silica is a necessary building block for tissues, including the bones, cartilage, ligaments, blood vessels, and even skin and hair. Increased natural silica intake can boost the benefits of collagen. Not just the presence of collagen, but the absorption and utilization of it (supported by sufficient vitamin C, silica and other nutrients) improves joint health, organ health, skin health, nail/hair health and digestive health. Solutions uses Organic, Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth.

Turmeric/Ginger Blend

Curcuma longa (root)/ Zingiber officinale (root)

The primary healing constituent in Turmeric is it’s high level of curcuminoids. Curcuminoids are capable of effectively reducing chronic pain and inflammation. There is an overall lack of treatment options for neuropathic (chronic) pain. This could be because there is a poor understanding in the scientific community about the pathological mechanisms that cause chronic pain. Chemical compounds found in Ginger, called gingerols, inhibit multiple cytochrome drug metabolism pathways. This same metabolic action can prevent the liver from allowing curcuminoids to be excreted quickly. The more time that the curcuminoids in Turmeric are available in the digestive tract and liver, the longer and more effectively they can elicit their beneficial effects. As such, Ginger improves the benefits of the curcuminoids in Turmeric by as much as 2,000%.

Witch Hazel

Hamamelis virginiana (bark & leaf)

Witch Hazel is an astringent herb. This means that is “draws out” toxins, which can include parasites and other agents that may be inflammatory to the body and joints.

Devil’s Claw

Harpagophytum procumbens

Devil’s Claw has been used for a variety of different sources of pain including headaches, menstrual cramps, tendonitis, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and back pain. It has also been shown to be beneficial for blood glucose regulation. Chronically elevated blood glucose levels are linked to metabolic diseases such as cancer, obesity and type II diabetes. An improvement in blood glucose levels, therefore, could potentially improve pain and inflammation as well. Multiple studies have found Devil’s Claw to be analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects. Excessive use can cause elevated liver enzymes. Very little Devil’s Claw is used in Elemental Solutions Inflammax for that reason, to ensure safety while also benefiting from it!
