Then came the "miracle" of the COX2 inhibitors - Vioxx, Bextra, Celebrex, etc. These didn't cause ulcers and weak blood vessels and the expectations were high. But later we found that the great results experienced were offset by the fact that these anti-inflammatory drugs caused heart attacks and strokes because they induced clots in the blood. The risks were so great that the FDA temporarily took them off the market.

Remember that inflammation causes pain - both acute and chronic. If an anti-inflammatory product could be found that would inhibit COX2 without side effects, you could stop the cause of pain.

What’s in Phenocane:

Curcumin, Curcuminoids, dl Phenylalanine and Boswellia Serrata.

CURCUMIN is so well known in the nutritional science it needs no introduction. The internet will provide you with hundreds of excellent studies that have delineated the wonders of this herb. In one double blind study, curcumin matched cortisone as a pain and anti-inflammatory. The curcuminoid that we isolated is the best COX2 inhibitor that we know exists - and it is without side effects!

CURCUMINOIDS are compounds naturally occurring in curcumin. Curcumin has several of these curcuminoids and we have isolated one which is very specific for COX2 inhibition. The concentration follows this formula: Curcumin is derived from the herb turmeric. It requires a reduction of 60 parts of turmeric to get one part of curcumin. We then take 20 parts of curcumin and reduce it to one part of my special curcuminoid, which is the most active ingredient in this formula, although we do have some "regular" curcumin in the formula also.

BOSWELLIA is another fairly well known herb with COX2 inhibition properties which, while no-where near as powerful as the curcuminoid, works in a slightly different fashion to reduce COX2 enzyme, thus creating a synergistic effect.

DLPA is a common amino acid (dl Phenylalanine) which has the ability to help the body maintain higher levels of serotonin, the brain's "feel good" hormone. Physicians have written books about the many qualities of DLPA in helping mood elevation and reducing pain in general.

Nattokinase is an enzyme isolated from the traditional Japanese food staple Natto; a typical and popular soybean food in the Japanese diet. Nattokinase has been found to have blood clot dissolving abilities.

If you are concerned about pharmaceutical drugs with all their side effects and if you are tired of everyday pain, then the above formula known as PHENOCANE may be the answer you have been looking for.
