Czech Virus Joint Max Ultimate Blend 345 g

Joint MAX Ultimate Blend is the bestseller on the joint nutrition market from the most original Czech brand Czech Virus®. It is a complex joint nutrition with a high content of functional substances in one dose(over 8600 mg!!). The sophisticated composition targets the overall condition of the joints (combination of chondroprotective substances) and was designed according to the most up-to-date knowledge in this field. The great advantage of this product is also its good solubility and great taste - you won't believe you are drinking joint nutrition. And all this is absolutely NO SUGAR!

Peptan®

Peptan® are branded peptides of hydrolysed collagen. The effectiveness of collagen peptides in supporting joint health is supported by extensive scientific studies. Safe and natural, collagen peptides are the body's own building blocks for cartilage and an ideal substance to target not only older consumers but also those who frequently participate in repetitive sports such as fitness, running or cycling. Collagen peptides offer unique and proven benefits and are increasingly being used as a key active ingredient in successful joint health formulations.

Hydrolysed collagen peptides

The digestibility of Peptan® was tested in a model situation1 mimicking digestion in the human intestine. Over 90% of Peptan® was digested with a molecule size of 2000 Daltons - a size that is readily utilized in the gut. In an in vivo study2 the absorption of Peptan® into the blood was measured. Peptan® is absorbed approximately 30-60 minutes after ingestion. The results confirm that Peptan® is very efficiently absorbed directly into the blood.

Original formulation

The market is oversaturated with copies of horse joint nutrition that not only do not bring anything new, but their flavouring is not worth much (and that should be the only advantage of the copy...). We at Czech Virus® didn't want to settle for that and that's why we bring you our original recipe, which contains extremely high doses of active ingredients. Just for comparison - does your current joint nutrition have over 8600 mg of active ingredients in one dose? If not, we recommend looking for something stronger (and tastier).

Delicate taste

We get it, you're probably tapping your forehead right now wondering how we can write "delicate taste" to describe a soluble joint food. It's simple. Remember our Super Greens PRO bomb? To date, it's absolutely without question the best tasting blend of green superfoods. We decided to approach this product the same way, where the base really tastes terrible. After dozens of different tests, we've finally arrived at a completely unique taste that you won't find anywhere else on the market. So we are proud to say that our product has a truly delicate taste that you have not experienced in a similar product!

A comprehensive approach

When creating classic joint nutrition, we usually work with classic ingredients that you are probably already familiar with: MSM, Glucosamine, Chondroitin or even gelatine. Sometimes collagen is also present, but usually of a very basic quality. We wanted to take the product really holistically so that it could really help in the broadest possible spectrum. That's why we chose the branded and extremely high quality Peptan® (collagen peptides), turmeric or the excellent Sodium Hyaluronate in addition to the standard ingredients. In total, the product contains 7 active ingredients!

No extra stuff

You could say that this is standard for us, but it's good to keep it in mind. You won't find any cheap fillers, controversial sweeteners or synthetic colours in the product. Again, we created the product as pure as possible without any ballast. The ingredients in the product that are "inactive" have their reasons - there is flavouring, citric and malic acid and a little dried butter for a great taste. There is a small amount of xanthan gum for better texture. For colour, we used natural paprika extract (+ the active ingredient Turmeric also colours). All this is sweetened with the time-tested sucralose, which to date has not had a single controversial study like other sweeteners. And that's it, there's just nothing extra that the product doesn't need and it puts unnecessary strain on the body.

The importance of preventing joint, ligament and tendon pain

Today's market offers a plethora of dietary supplements. Unfortunately, however, joint nutrition is often neglected and preference is given to products that are more "in" (burners, preworkouts...). Subsequently, joint nutrition is only addressed when something hurts and by then it is too late in some respects. Prevention, i.e. the use of chondroprotective substances, should be the basis so that all joints, tendons and ligaments are supported and can continue to function properly. The biggest problems with joint nutrition are swallowing large quantities of tablets or, in the case of dissolvable mixtures, not very good taste. Also, most products only contain the so-called first generation substances (Glucosamine, Chondroitin, MSM) without any innovations, which may be sufficient as a basis, but why use the basics when there are many more modern and very effective substances available.

Peptan® is #1 in branded collagen peptides! Peptan® is the world's leading brand, manufactured by the Dutch company Rousselot. Collagen peptides are bioactive ingredients that have been specially formulated to provide multiple benefits and functional properties. Peptan® collagen peptides belong to type 1 collagen. This means they are identical to the collagen in human bones and skin. Peptan® is an extremely pure, natural and bioactive product that contains more than 97% protein (on a dry basis). Peptan® collagen peptides are optimized for high bioavailability and activity in the body and are very easily absorbed by humans due to hydrolysis. It is a natural, allergen-free substance that is used in a wide range of products worldwide due to its properties and effects. Peptan® has a unique composition of amino acids. It contains 18 amino acids, the building blocks of our tissues and the primary component of protein. Glycine, proline and hydroxyproline account for approximately 50% of the total amino acid content of this substance. The concentration of glycine and proline in Peptan® is 10 to 20 times higher than other proteins. Peptan® = world leader in collagen peptides.

Substances used

Peptan® Hydrolysed Collagen Peptides
Collagen peptides with a size of 2000Da are enzymatically cleaved collagen fragments that have proven biological activity. They nourish connective tissue cells and promote their proliferation, act as a building material and increase collagen production.

Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM)
MSM is an organic sulphur compound. Sulphur is contained in a number of molecules essential for the functioning of living organisms. It is one of the most widely used substances in similar products.

Glucosamine Sulfate 2KCl
Glucosamine is the most widely used substance in joint and cartilage care to date. It occurs naturally in the human body in articular cartilage and connective tissues.

Chondroitin sulfate (90%)
Chondroitin sulfate is part of the extracellular matrix of connective tissues. In humans, it is a physiological component of articular cartilage and is also found in bone, cornea or skin.

Vitamin C
Vitamin C contributes to the normal production of collagen for normal function of blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums, teeth and skin. Vitamin C (unlike other vitamins) has a logical use in this product. Other products usually contain illogically the whole vitamin spectrum, which is used only for "marketing" and subsequent counting of a large number of active substances.

Turmeric
Turmeric supports: normal digestion, liver function, cardiovascular system function - blood circulation, immune system function, joint and bone health.

Sodium Hyaluronate
Sodium hyaluronate is a naturally occurring glycosaminoglycan and is the salt of hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is one of the main components of intercellular matrix. It is a component of connective, epithelial and nervous tissues.
