- Reparagen: From Concept to Product
Scientists have revealed a breakthrough in managing arthritis and joint damage. Published in BioMed Central’s BMC Complementary & Alternative Medicine, a natural product combination called Reparagen, has been shown to activate a critical repair gene, IGF-1, in human cartilage while blocking joint destruction associated with inflammation. This product was not originally created to specifically meet the needs of the joint health sector. Rather it is the result of a decade of research & development that was focused on the mechanism of action of the constituents. In this approach, elements of traditional knowledge are combined with new scientific discoveries, and novel ingredient combinations and applications can be created.
