Schiffs New Move Free® Ultra Features UC-II®

BENICIA, Calif.The new version of Move Free® Ultra from Schiff Nutrition International Inc. includes UC-II®, a joint-health ingredient from InterHealth Nutraceuticals. InterHealths CEO, Paul Dijkstra said the popularity of the Move Free brand should help increase consumer awareness of the UC-II brand.

InterHealths UC-II offering provides Schiff with a key ingredient for our once-a-day Move Free product without compromising on the science, safety and quality of the Move Free brand," said Schiffs senior vice president and chief marketing officer, Jennifer Steeves-Kiss. In addition, UC-IIs clinical data is impressive, and it works in a unique way to inhibit joint cartilage damage, enabling the body to rebuild healthy joints."

UC-II undenatured type II collagen may help trigger a series of events that slows down the secretion of joint-cartilage degrading enzymes. It not only works differently than other collagens on the market, but a study showed it to be more effective than glucosamine and chondroitin. UC-II is supported by peer-reviewed published clinical research demonstrating that just 40 mg increases joint mobility, flexibility and quality of life twice as effectively as glucosamine and chondroitin.

UC-II is a published and notified new dietary ingredient (NDI) in the United States as well as a non-novel food in the EU. UC-II is sourced and manufactured in the United States.
