Baxaprin™ - 180 capsules

Baxaprin™ is a revolutionary approach for addressing occasional back and neck discomfort, which affects everyone from professional athletes and weekend warriors to those with occasional strain from overuse.* Baxaprin™ is designed to optimize core musculoskeletal physiology to limit stresses on the spine and associated tissues that may lead to pain, stiffness, or tension in the back, neck, or shoulders.* Unlike most commercially available products intended for this purpose, Baxaprin™ does not just address occasional discomfort after the fact, but instead helps deal with the underlying foundational causes at the tissue level that may lead to suboptimal functioning in the first place.

How does Baxaprin™ address root causes? The ingredients in this product help regulate the natural contraction and relaxation of muscles that influence the spine. They also support the neurological actions of the motor neurons that control muscle function. If an individual has insufficient levels of the nutrients required for optimal physiological function of individual muscle cells, adjunct therapies such as physical therapy will likely not be maximally effective.

Calcium, Magnesium, and Potassium: These three electrolyte minerals are essential for nerve transmission and the proper contraction and relaxation of muscle fibers; inadequate amounts of any of them may result in occasional muscle tension and stiffness. Calcium, magnesium, and potassium are abundant in commonly consumed foods, but certain circumstances may warrant supplementation with amounts greater than those typically obtained from diet alone. Although anyone may be at risk for marginal status in one or all of these minerals, individuals who may be at greater risk for muscle injuries—such as athletes or those with jobs that involve repetitive motion, particularly if performed outdoors—may have especially increased need for calcium, magnesium, and potassium due to losses in sweat.

Vitamin D: Vitamin D is included in Baxaprin™ based on the demonstrated advantages of vitamin D for helping to alleviate occasional aches in muscles and joints.* Nearly every cell in the body expresses vitamin D receptors, so vitamin D appears to be needed for proper functioning of every organ and tissue system, including muscle cells. Additionally, vitamin D regulates calcium homeostasis in the body, so it’s a crucial partner in ensuring the body has the calcium it needs for proper muscle contraction.

Valerian, Passion Flower, and Lemon Balm: These botanical extracts are recognized for their relaxant properties and have been employed for centuries in various traditional medical approaches. They work mainly by promoting the activity of GABA, the body’s primary calming neurotransmitter. Occasional psychological stress and tension may exacerbate physical pain, particularly in the back, neck, and shoulders.* (The phrase “carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders” is not entirely metaphorical.) Compounds that help alleviate this mental stress may be beneficial for addressing the associated physical tension as well.*
