Why Chicken
Collagen II?
A: Of the 14 types of collagen found in the human body,
collagen II is the most predominant. It makes up 25% of the protein
found in the body and is vital to the structural integrity of
connective tissue which is found in bone, cartilage, tendons,
and ligaments. As we age our level of collagen II diminishes resulting
in weakened connective tissue contributing to weakened bone, cartilage,
tendons, and ligaments. Chicken Collagen II assists the body in
restoring this vital substance to healthier levels which researchers
have discovered to be beneficial in restoring healthy joint and
tissue function. Other natural substances found in Chicken collagen
II have been found to reduce inflammation, swelling, and pain,
while increasing lubrication and cartilage integrity, as well
as protect it from enzymes and free radical damage .

Why Glucosamine
Sulfate?
A: Glucosamine Sulfate is used by the body
to maintain healthy cartilage and synovial (lubricating) fluid
production. Recent landmark research, published in the Lancet
Medical journal, has demonstrated that glucosamine sulfate
reduces inflammation and increases lubrication easing joint movement
and increasing mobility. Research has shown that other forms of
glucosamine such as glucosamine hydrochloride and n-acetyl-glucosamine
are not as effective as the sulfate form. Neo
Flex™ contains glucosamine sulfate not
glucosamine HCI as found in other joint formulas.

What is LIGNISULTM
MSM?
A: MSM (Methyl-Sulfonyl-Methane) is a natural source of
biologically active sulfur, a molecule found in food, plants,
and every cell of the human body. Arthritics are known to have
deficiencies of this essential nutrient. Organic sulfur is critical
to maintaining healthy cartilage, bones, tendons, and ligaments.

Why Does Neo
Flex™
Contain Sodium?
A: The developers of glucosamine
sulfate discovered within two weeks of producing it that the moisture
in the air would cause it to slowly deteriorate making it very
unstable causing it to lose its effectiveness. In order to prevent
this from occurring researchers found that stabilizing it with
a base of sodium would protect it from the moisture in the air
allowing it maintain its effectiveness. Its also interesting
to note that in the Nutrition Science News, May 2000, there was
an article on glucosamine by Timothy J. Maher, Ph.D. On page three
of that article under the subheading it had this to say, "The
use of the non-salt glucosamine fails to provide bioavailable
glucosamine because the compound is not absorbed in the gastrointestinal
tract. Instead, it is metabolized by bacteria and excreted in
the feces."
A four tablet serving of Premier
Labs Neo Flex™ contains 120 mg of sodium to stabilize
the 1,500 mg of glucosamine sulfate for maximum effectiveness.
This is equivalent to the amount found in two large carrots, an
extremely small amount and poses no health risks. At Premier Labs
we will not cut corners or play on people's fears. We will use
only the best ingredients that have been scientifically proven.

What is the Recommended Dosage?
A: As a dietary supplement take 2 tablets twice per day
with food or as directed by a health care professional.
Return
Can You Take More
Than the Recommended Dosage?
A: Since Neo Flex™ is not a drug but an all
natural food supplement, an individual can take more than four
tablets a day. It is recommended that individuals who are 200
pounds and over should take a minimum of six a day. After consistent
use for 3 months you can cut back the dosage to a maintenance
level of two to three tablets a day.
Return
How Long Does It
Take Before Any Benefits Are Noticed?
A: Since everyone is different the time period will vary.
For the best results use a minimum of 8 to 12 weeks. For continued
benefits it is best to take Neo Flex™ on a regular
basis to provide the needed nutrients contained in the formula
to nourish and maintain healthy joint function.
Return
Are the Tablets Absorbed
Efficiently?
A: The tablets of Neo Flex™ are designed to break
down very quickly after swallowing, within 15 to 20 minutes, to
allow the nutrients to be absorbed.
Return
Does Neo Flex™
contain Antibiotics, Hormones, Pesticides,
etc?
A: DOES NOT CONTAIN: ANTIBIOTICS, HORMONES, PESTICIDES, STEROIDS,
yeast, dairy, egg, wheat, soy gluten, rice, sugar, preservatives,
artificial colors, flavors, or fragrances.
Return
Is there
anyone who should not take Neo Flex™
A: Neo Flex™ has been used
by thousands of people with complete safety. There are no unnatural
drugs or contaminants that would be harmful. And, even though
Neo Flex™ has proven to be very safe under all kinds
of situations, it is still advisable to consult your physician
or health care professional if you are pregnant, nursing, or are
under the care of a physician due to an extreme illness.
Return
Are There any Negative
Side Effects?
A: Neo Flex™ is not a drug there are no known
negative side effects. Some people may find that the1,500 milligrams
of MSM, which provides 500 milligrams of organic sulfur in a four
tablet serving of Neo Flex™, may be too much to take
in the beginning. If you should develop diarrhea or intestinal
gas from taking four tablets reduce the daily dosage to one or
two tablets a day for a week or two. Increase the dosage to two
or three tablets a day for another week and finally take all four
tablets on the third or fourth week. This will allow your body
time to adjust to the organic sulfur. Some individuals may have
to progress even more slowly.
For some people MSM can have an energizing
effect. If you are one of those then it is recommended that you
do not take Neo Flex™at supper or bed time so as
not to disturb your sleep. Instead, take Neo Flex™
with breakfast and lunch.
