"As a competitive gymnast PainX really helps reduce pain and swelling and no side effects like Advil." -Claire

Inflammation is a natural part of the body’s immune response, a cascade triggered to protect the body and maintain normal tissue repair. This physiological response is part of the innate immune or non-specific immune system, a first line of defense comprising the cells and mechanisms that defend against unwanted organisms in a non-specific manner. The inflammatory cascade is mediated by eicosanoids, which have been shown to balance inflammation and immunemodulating cytokines. PainX provides a blend of nutrients which support a healthy inflammatory cycle by balancing eicosanoid and cytokine metabolism and inhibiting the activities and synthesis of a wide variety of compounds implicated in pain and inflammation.

PainX is formulated specifically to support healthy inflammatory balance and musculoskeletal health. Traumeric includes the key ingredient-turmeric, standardized to include 95% of curcumin. PainX also includes the pineapple enzyme bromelain, as well as flavonoids quercetin and rutin for full-spectrum, high-intensity support to maintain a balanced cycle of inflammation.

INGREDIENT BENEFITS

Turmeric Root Extract

Turmeric is a bright orange-colored spice that has been in use for thousands of years in cooking and medicine. Curcumin has been shown to play a crucial role in maintaining normal inflammatory balance in a variety of bodily systems due to its strong NFkB-modulating properties.

Bromelain

Bromelain is a proteolytic enzyme derived from the stem of the pineapple plant. Bromelain has been shown to support musculoskeletal health and normal inflammatory balance by working on the kinin pathways and inhibiting arachidonic acid formation via phospholipase A.

Quercetin

A flavonoid found in a variety of botanicals, vegetables and fruits, quercetin is a potent antioxidant which inhibits inducible ICAM-1 expression, an important pathway for maintaining normal inflammatory balance.

Rutin

Rutin is a flavonoid that has been shown to help maintain normal inflammatory balance. Rutin helps maintain levels of the major antioxidant in the body, glutathione. Rutin also works in synergy with other flavonoids such as quercetin to support connective tissue health by inhibiting the enzymes that break down connective tissue: hyaluronidase, collagenase, LOX and COXs.
