30 capsules | Net content 23.10 g

Description

CYTODRIVE is a food supplement that aims to fight inflammation by providing proteolytic enzymes and natural extracts with anti-inflammatory properties and promoting the proper functioning of the immune system thanks to the presence of vitamin C.

Turmeric and its active ingredient, curcumin, have recognized antioxidant properties1,2. Furthermore, curcumin is considered a natural anti-inflammatory3.

Anti-inflammatory properties are also attributed to saffron. In particular, this natural anti-inflammatory has been associated with a reduction in the levels of cytokines such as interleukins 6, 12 and 17A4.

Acerola, a source of vitamin C, is an antioxidant and promotes the body’s natural defenses2. Vitamin C contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system, to the protection of cells from oxidative stress and to the regeneration of the reduced form of vitamin E, a natural antioxidant5. 1 capsule of CYTODRIVE contains a dose of vitamin C corresponding to 100% of the reference nutritional values (NRV), equal to 80 mg6.

Bromelain is a complex mixture of proteases obtained from pineapples which are attributed anti-inflammatory and anticancer properties and the ability to modulate the immune system7.
