AGILEASE AT A GLANCE

  • Supports and protects healthy cartilage and joints
  • Supports the body's natural inflammatory response associated with exercise
  • Helps support healthy joint flexibility and mobility
  • Contains highly absorbable, undenatured collagen, turmeric and frankincense powder which are full of inflammation-fighting antioxidants
  • Formula is specifically designed for optimal availability & absorption
  • Helps with joint discomfort to improve quality of life
  • Beneficial for athletes and active individuals of all ages who want to support and protect their joints and cartilage

You can use AgilEase to support acute joint health needs or as a preventative measure to protect joint and cartilage health. With collagen, glucosamine, turmeric, and more, this is a great supplement for just about everyone! It is a wonderful addition to a supplement routine to help with recovery after running, yoga, weightlifting or even just those long days of parenting (parenting a toddler should be an Olympic sport!).

BACKGROUND Think of AgilEase as a much better, more powerful version of glucosamine/chondroitin that you often see at pharmacies or health food stores. Young Living doesn't add anything to their supplements that doesn't need to be there, and they don't use excessive fillers, colors or dyes, so you know that what you're taking is the best possible

This supplement is especially beneficial for those with an active lifestyle, for athletes, and for aging individuals who may experience a natural, acute inflammation response in their joints after exercise. Whether it is running, Crossfit, working on your feet all day, weightlifting or any other physical activity, AgilEase can provide your body with the support it needs to recover.

COLLAGEN & INFLAMMATION So many things cause inflammation in our bodies - our diet, our environment, our activities - so anything we can do to support our bodies through that will pack a big punch. AgilEase is full of ingredients that can combat inflammation, especially the inflammation present in joints!

According to the late Dr. Mike Buch, previous head of Research & Development at Young Living, “all these ingredients provide individual contributions to the overall efficacy of AgilEase, but the unique UC-II collagen used in AgilEase is really special. Collagen is a protein, in fact, it's the most abundant protein in your body. It's found in connective tissue like tendons and ligaments, as well as skin and cartilage.

Collagen, like all proteins, is a very large molecule. Collagen is so large that it tends to fold over on itself producing a very distinctively-shaped molecule. This distinctive shape is called the “tertiary structure” of the molecule. This tertiary structure is critical to how the collagen is absorbed and used in the body.

When collagen is extracted from natural tissue (in our case it's chicken sternum), the tertiary structure of the molecule is usually destroyed. (Many extraction methods involve boiling and that makes these long molecules “unfold”). The UC-II collagen in Agilease is produced using a proprietary extraction process so that the molecule does not lose its native tertiary structure. Retaining this molecular structure makes UC-II the most bioavailable form of collagen for supplementation, and numerous clinical studies show that it can help your body fight inflammation and improve joint flexibility and mobility.”

KEY INGREDIENTS This powerful blend of ingredients can help you protect your joint and cartilage health and gain greater mobility and flexibility. Who doesn't want that?!

  • Frankincense resin powder: a strong antioxidant that helps repair oxidative damage at a cellular level
  • UC-II undenatured collagen: supports collagen production and provides cushion in the joints
  • Hyaluronic acid: helps in the growth and development of joint's cartilage and bone by promoting the growth of new cells and tissues.
  • Piperine: from black pepper, known to dramatically increase the absorption and supportive effects of turmeric
  • Glucosamine: studies show it helps form cartilage and reduce pain from inflammation and joint issues
  • Turmeric: a super powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory herb
  • Wintergreen: commonly known as methyl salicylate; supports the body's response to pain and inflammation, soothes discomfort and helps the body promote healing
  • Copaiba: is especially helpful for the body in the presence of inflammation and works much like a fire extinguisher to help put out the fires
  • Clove: a powerful antioxidant that supports the body's response to inflammation, soothes discomfort and helps the body repair oxidative damage.
  • Northern Lights Black Spruce essential oils: supports the body's response to pain and injury and helps to calm the natural inflammation process

FULL INGREDIENT LIST

  • AgilEase Blend: Frankincense (Boswellia serrata) resin powder, Calcium fructoborate (from plant minerals), Curcuminoids complex Turmeric (Curcuma longa) rhizome extract, Piperine (from Black pepper (Piper nigrum)) whole fruit extract, Collagen (with undenatured type II collagen), Glucosamine sulfate, Hyaluronic acid (as Sodium hyaluronate)], Wintergreen (Gaultheria procumbens) leaf oil, Copaiba (oleoresin) (Copaifera officinalis) wood oil, Clove (Syzygium aromaticum) flower bud oil, Black spruce (Picea mariana) whole tree oil (Northern Lights)
  • Other Ingredients: Rice flour, Hypromellose, Silicon dioxide

HOW TO USE

  • Take two capsules daily to support joint health or as a preventative measure to protect joint and cartilage health.

Remember that with supplements like collagen and glucosamine, you will see benefits after a 2-3 weeks of use as our bodies start increasing production of cartilage and collagen. When you stop taking a supplement like this, you will stop seeing the results!

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BLM AND AGILEASE? This is a commonly asked question, and there are a few differences! You could use them interchangeably if needed for stock issues, but looking at the individual ingredients helps you choose which is right for your specific needs:

BLM Ingredients:

  • Manganese, Glucosamine Sulfate, Type II Chicken Collagen, Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), Balsam Fir, Wintergreen, Clove

Agilease Ingredients:

  • Frankincense, Calcium Fructoborate, Turmeric, Black Pepper, Glucosamine Sulfate, Hyaluronic Acid, Potassium Chloride, Type II Chicken Collagen, Wintergreen, Copaiba, Clove, Black Spruce
  • Agilease doesn't contain Manganese and MSM.

In BLM:

  • Manganese has huge benefits to healthy bone structure, bone metabolism, and helps to create essential enzymes for building bones. It also acts as a coenzyme to assist metabolic activity in the human body.
  • MSM is found in the muscles, bones, and skin. It forms the keratin in your body needed to help build collagen. It is essential support for your body's inflammation support, aging support, and joint support. It is actually essential to most of your body systems.
  • Idaho Balsam Fir helps support the body in cartilage and bone health. Many feel they have better results with Idaho Balsam Fir on this one than with the Black Spruce in AgilEase.

In Agilease: Turmeric is essential for the support of over a dozen body systems (heart, brain, inflammatory, joints and more) and is a key player for inflammation. Frankincense, Copaiba, and Black Pepper make a power trio for discomfort. Black Pepper contains piperine, known to dramatically increase the absorption and supportive effects of turmeric!

Research these ingredients to be amazed! Many individuals take both supplements at different times/for different needs, and it could be beneficial for someone with severe joint issues to consider taking both supplements together.
