INDICATIONS:
Inflacalm helps calm inflammation, ease pain, and increase circulation to joints and
tissues. It is indicated for those seeking safe, drug-free relief from any inflammatory
ailment whether it be acute or chronic. By regulating numerous signaling pathways
in the body, including the eicosanoid pathway involving COX and LOX enzymes,
the synergistic blend of herbs in Inflacalm help modulate one’s natural inflammation
response. It can be used as an alternative to NSAID’s like ibuprofen to help relieve
pain and inflammation without gastrointestinal side effects. It is indicated for any
inflammatory and auto-immune type disorder. If corticoid-steroids help a condition,
Inflacalm might also help. In addition, it is a powerful antioxidant that scavenges the
tissue damaging free radicals released during the inflammatory process.
Ginger inhibits nuclear factor-kB (NF-kB), cyclooxygenase (COX) and lipoxygen ase (LOX) enzymes and has been shown to inhibit the actions of prostaglandins.
It increases peripheral circulation to muscles and joints and helps rid the body of
toxins. It also exhibits anti-ulcer effects and can help protect the intestinal mucosa
from damage.
Holy Basil is an Ayurvedic herb that has been used for centuries to treat inflammation as well as many other conditions. It contains key polyphenols such as eugenol,
ursolic acid and rosmarinic acid that fight inflammation, inhibit production of COX-2
enzymes, and act as strong antioxidants to fght free radicals and protect cells from
oxidative damage. In addition, Holy Basil helps counteract the effects of stress, calm
the mind, and lift the spirt, which makes it helpful in the midst of injury and pain.
White Willow is a analgesic (pain reducing) and anti-inflammatory tonic. It is the
original source and natural form of parts of aspirin. It has all the same indications
as aspirin (headaches, body aches and pains, overexertion, pain from inflammation), but is structurally different from aspirin and does not have the potential side
effects of those of aspirin.
Turmeric produces a systemic anti-inflammatory effect by keeping naturally occurring cortisone at higher blood levels. It is helpful for many conditions including
autoimmune disorders (MS, lupus, psoriasis, asthma, arthritis). One of Turmeric’s
most active constituent, Curcumin, has been found to have anti-inflammatory and
antioxidant properties and has been investigated by the National Cancer Institute
for its cancer-preventative activities.

Green Tea’s powerful antioxidants help reduce inflammation by inhibiting interleukin-1 beta-induced activity and expression of COX-2 and nitric oxide synthase-2 in
chondrocytes. It is rich in polyphenols, particularly epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG).
Peer-reviewed scientific research has shown that EGCG is a potent antioxidant that
deactivates health damaging free radicals.
Rosmarinic Acid, naturally found in Rosemary, is a polyphenolic compound with
strong antioxidant capabilities. Studies have demonstrated it to reduce inflammation
and help in the treatment of inflammatory conditions.
Boswellia has been used for centuries to treat various types of chronic inflammatory
diseases. The resinous part of Boswellia contains four major pentacyclic triterpenic
acids, which inhibit specific enzymes that cause inflammation.
