How it works
Inflammation is the body?? reaction to physical, chemical or biological
injury. Normally this process localises the problem and results in
regeneration or repair of damaged tissue. Unfortunately this process is not
always beneficial in some people, and in some circumstances can actually
cause further damage and injury, such as in rheumatoid arthritis and asthma.
There are many mechanisms in the body involved in the inflammatory
response. Lyprinol? helps to reduce inflammation and swelling by directly
inhibiting the action of the enzymes involved in the inflammatory pathway
called the LOX pathway. By inhibiting this enzyme Lyprinol? can reduce both
inflammation and pain, and yet does not interfere with the more positive
aspects of the normal inflammatory response.
Lyprinol? has a more complex lipid structure compared to other marine
oils. This includes the presence of a number of compounds known to be
anti-inflammatory, such as omega-3 fatty acids. This complex mixture of
lipids is regarded as being essential to explaining the potent action of
Lyprinol?.
