How Does Flex Now Differentiate Itself From Its Competitors?
Unlike most over-the-counter medications, Flex Now does not have any side effects for users. It also does not contain any ingredients that people would most likely be allergic too (e.g. nuts, soy, and gluten). It is also environmentally sustainable. Shea is one of the prime components in Flex Now. Manufactures purchase this from local villagers in bulk.
Ingredients
The complete list of ingredients for Flex Now is not provided on the website. African shea fruit is the prime component in the product, but there’s most likely other ingredients included in it. African shea trees are commonly found in the tropical regions of eastern and western region of the continent. It is commonly used as a natural remedy in holistic healthcare. When it comes joint support, there is insufficient evidence to support the claim that any type of extract from shea trees can aid in joint support. More evidence is needed to prove the legitimacy of its uses.
Triterpene is another ingredient that is mentioned in the product. It is a natural compound that is commonly found in plants. It is said to contain anti-microbial and anti-inflammation properties, but more evidence is needed to support this claim.
How to Use Flex Now
Flex Now comes in a soft gel form. Each bottle comes with 90 soft gels, but the website fails to mention their recommendations on how many soft gels to take per day. It appears that Flex Now is only being sold two bottles at a time as a two month supply. Since 90 soft gels is considered a month supply, one could infer that they recommend users to take 3 soft gels per day. The two month supply of Flex Now is priced at $59.95, and it can be purchased directly from their website: powerofshea.com. As of now, this product is not available in retail stores.
Conclusion – Is Flex Now Legit?
It is very hard to determine the legitimacy of the product due the website failing to provide a sufficient amount of information on Flex Now for the potential buyer. They say that their products a side effect and allergy free but fail to provide evidence on their claim. Someone who suffers from allergies would not be interested in buying a product that does not show a list of ingredients before buying due to the potential health risk.
Based on the two ingredients mentioned for this product: shea fruit and triterpene, there is insufficient evidence to support the claim that these ingredients can alleviate and/or improve joint pain and stiffness. More scientific evidence and a complete ingredients list is needed before this product can be recommended to potential buyers.
