FYI^® formulas from Garden of Life^®

The FYI® products from Garden of Life®

FYI^®, FYI^® ULTRA and FYI^® Restore are three formulas from Garden of Life's Immunity Support line, that provide potent support for healthy joints, connective tissues and muscles.  While they all work similarly, in some sense, they each have distinct functions in the body.  This is a synopsis of how they work.

Q: How are FYI^®, FYI^® ULTRA and FYI^® Restore the same?

A: Each of these products provides key nutritional factors that support healthy tissue recovery, including antioxidant protection.

Q: What is the difference between FYI^®, FYI^® ULTRA and FYI^® Restore?

A: FYI^® is a comprehensive joint health formula, with chicken collagen type II and botanicals, designed primarily to support normal joint function and mobility.  It also contains systemic enzymes, which aid in the reduction of inflammation in the tissues, which supports faster recovery and healing for stressed tissues.

FYI^® Restore is an advanced, highly active systemic enzyme blend, to support normal fibrin turnover, tissue repair and recovery.  It includes some antioxidant activity and ionic minerals, as well as botanicals that support healthy tissues, but it is mostly systemic enzymes that support the recovery tissues by modulating inflammation and improving microcirculation to the tissues.

FYI^® ULTRA is a multi-faceted joint and cartilage formula, supporting joint and connective tissue health with clinically studied amounts of glucosamine.  This formula supports both the body's ability to rebuild cartilage tissue and maintain healthy joint status.  It also includes turmeric, pomegranate, selenium and other carefully selected natural antioxidants, that assist the body's response to everyday wear and tear.

• Glucosamine which supports the body's ability to rebuild cartilage tissue and maintain healthy joint status.
• Turmeric which supports normal joint and surrounding tissue volume and promotes healthy joint mobility.
• Pomegranate, selenium, natural astaxanthin and Boswellia support the body's capacity to withstand free radical damage in joint and cartilage tissue.
