The Joint Health Range
Joining the stable of joint health solutions (ApresFlex, 5-Loxin, Dynagenix and AquaLOX) from our partner PLT Health is Kinexa.
With subtle distinctions in application these ingredients provide a complete set of solutions for formulators.
Below, we will look at their individual benefits of the various ingredients. If you need any help from EiraNor for your formulations please get in touch.
Kinexa
Kinexa Joint Longevity Complex is a patented combination of standardized extracts of Haritaki (Terminalia chebula), Turmeric (Curcuma longa), and Indian Frankincense (Boswellia serrata). More exciting than the unique composition is the clinical study that supports it in creating new categories for joint health. Key to the work was the broad use of imaging technology to actually see improvements in five different joint structures.
To date, most clinical work in the joint health sector has focused on enhancing comfort. But joints aren’t just “pain sensors”, they are load-bearing mechanical systems. This new study on Kinexa is revolutionary because we are impacting a much broader range of factors that contribute to joint health and longevity.
“Kinexa raises the bar because it evaluates the joint as a system, not just how it feels,” said Jennifer Murphy, Head of Innovation and Clinical Science for PLT. “In this clinical study, we saw significant
improvements in multiple measures of joint structure alongside functional outcomes, supported by advanced imaging. That combination is rare in our category, and it opens the door for our customers to develop new products that may contribute to long-term mobility across different life stages. We are looking forward to engaging the health and wellness community on what joint longevity can mean when you measure the whole joint.”
ApresFlex
AprèsFlex® is one of the world’s best-selling joint health ingredients – with multiple clinical studies that demonstrate efficacy starting at 5 days – with a low dose - proven efficacy at only 100mg/day.
It is one of the most clinically studied mobility support ingredients on the market.
AprèsFlex is the powerhouse ingredient inside many of the world’s leading joint health supplements. Made from the Boswellia tree and backed by clinical research, it is chosen by top brands because it delivers real results. With AprèsFlex, you get proven science, faster relief from stiffness, support for flexibility, and long-term protection for your joints and cartilage, helping users stay active and independent.
AprèsFlex helps joints in two key ways:
- Calms inflammation at the source - Aprèsflex blocks an enzyme that triggers joint inflammation, helping you feel more comfortable and move with ease.
- Protects the joint cushion - Aprèsflex helps safeguard cartilage (the cushion between your joints), slowing the wear-and-tear that can lead to long-term joint problems.

5-Loxin
5-LOXIN® is one of the world’s best-selling joint health ingredients – with multiple clinical studies that demonstrate efficacy starting at 7 days – with a low dose.
5-LOXIN® is a patented, clinically-studied dietary supplement
ingredient. In human studies, 5-LOXIN was shown to support joint
health and function and protect against collagen degradation.
5-LOXIN® inhibits an enzyme called 5-lipoxygenase.
5-LOXIN has been the subject of 13 pre-clinical studies and 2 human clinical trials. One of the key features of 5-LOXIN in any formulation is clinical work that has demonstrated efficacy starting at 7 days – at a significantly lower dose (100 mg) than other joint health ingredients.
Dynagenix
The starting point for Dynagenix – Boswellia serrata – is a plant that produces Indian frankincense. It is also known as Indian olibanum, Salai guggul, and Sallaki in Sanskrit. The plant is native to much of India and the Punjab region that extends into Pakistan. In partnership with Laila, PLT is committed to the safety and fair treatment of the people who harvest Dynagenix. We want to support the long-term health and well-being of the tribal culture and the natural environment upon which it relies.
“Dynagenix is exciting because it works at an exceptionally low dose and is water-soluble. This opens up a new world of innovation options for product formulators.”
Seth Flowerman, CEO, PLT Health Solutions
In a 2025 clinical study, 72 men and women (age 40-70) with Grade II osteoarthritis, received either 40 mg/day of Dynagenix or a matching placebo for 30 days. Key outcome measures tested were WOMAC pain, stiffness, and function; a 30-second Chair Stand Test; a 6-minute Walk Test; a Stair Climb Test; and knee flexion and range of motion. Biomarkers of inflammation were also evaluated. Subjects were assessed at baseline, 5, 15, and 30 days.
This study showed that Dynagenix delivered statistically significant improvements in joint comfort, stiffness, and function as early as 5 days.
