Disc-Flex is a vegetarian capsule formula from Pure Encapsulations designed to support intervertebral disc health. The formula combines BioCell Collagen®, a hydrolyzed collagen complex derived from chicken sternal cartilage, with Glucosamine HCl sourced from crab and shrimp, to support healthy disc composition, strength, and flexibility.
The formula includes L-Carnosine (beta-alanyl-l-histidine) and alpha lipoic acid (thioctic acid), alongside Grape (Vitis vinifera) seed extract standardized to 92% polyphenols, to support antioxidant protection and healthy advanced glycation end product metabolism. Vitamin K2 as menaquinone-7, together with Vitamin D as cholecalciferol (D3), is included to help maintain healthy calcium metabolism in cartilage tissues.
Devil's claw (Harpagophytum procumbens and Harpagophytum zeyheri) root extract, standardized to 5% harpagosides, and Indian frankincense (Boswellia serrata) gum resin extract, standardized to 70% boswellic acids, are included to support day-to-day spinal comfort and flexibility and to promote a healthy musculoskeletal inflammatory response.
Disc-Flex is certified gluten-free by the Gluten-Free Certification Organization and is free from GMOs, soy, and dairy. It is formulated without magnesium stearate, artificial colors, flavors, or sweeteners, and contains no unnecessary binders, fillers, or preservatives. The vegetarian capsule contains cellulose and water, with ascorbyl palmitate as the only additional inactive ingredient.
