Aflapin+collagen Peptide
About
Aflapin+collagen Peptide belongs to the class of medications called nutritional supplements primarily used to reduce the symptoms of osteoarthritis which leads to joint discomfort and pain. It also improves flexibility and mobility. Osteoarthritis is a painful, degenerative, and inflammatory disease that affects synovial joints and eventually results in loss of mobility.
Collagen Peptide and Aflapin are the two active components in Aflapin+collagen Peptide.

Habit Forming
Diet & Lifestyle Advise
- Weight is the essential connection between diet and osteoarthritis. Obesity or being overweight puts more strain on your joints. Inflammation is also caused by excess fat, which can exacerbate symptoms. Losing weight may decrease pain and improve physical function and mobility.
- An appropriate exercise can help you manage your weight, keep your joints flexible, strengthen muscles around your joints, and offers more support.
- Heat and cold treatments can help relieve arthritis pain and inflammation.
- A diet that’s rich in fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole foods can help boost your immune system and your overall health.
- Avoiding a diet rich in red meat, processed foods, saturated fat, added sugar and salt as it might aggravate inflammation, a characteristic of arthritis.
- Limit alcohol, caffeine intake and quit smoking.
