Muscles and bones
well-being
Bones, muscles, joints, tendons, ligaments and cartilage: these components, which make up the musculoskeletal system, work together in harmony to enable our bodies to move freely.
This balance must be carefully maintained, where necessary by supplementing the diet with specific nutrients, to preserve its functionality and thus ensure a good quality of life.
Bones are vital structures that undergo continuous remodelling throughout our lives. The inorganic component of bones is rich in minerals, particularly calcium, which they need to grow and remain strong.
The concentration of this mineral in the bones peaks around the age of thirty, after which it begins to decline. It is therefore important to ensure an adequate intake of calcium through diet and, if necessary, to take specific supplements.
Cartilage lines the joints and acts as a natural cushion that absorbs shock and reduces friction during movement. As we age, particularly in the presence of other predisposing factors, it can undergo progressive deterioration: as the cartilage thins, the joints lose their smoothness and everyday movements become increasingly difficult.
Glucosamine and hyaluronic acid are important components of joint cartilage which, together with methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), a source of sulphur-containing compounds, play a fundamental role in maintaining its function. And recent scientific evidence points to the gut-joint axis as a new frontier in tackling joint problems.
Muscles, on the other hand, are tissues composed of muscle fibres with the ability to contract in response to nerve signals. In situations of stress, when adopting poor posture, or following traumatic events, muscle contraction can become excessive and prolonged, leading to localised muscle tension. In such cases, it may be helpful to use natural active ingredients such as Magnesium, which supports muscle function, and Boswellia, which helps to counteract localised tension.
Here you will find Principium supplements designed to help maintain and restore mobility and wellbeing in muscles, bones and joints.
Calcium, for the development of bones and teeth
- elderly and postmenopausal women who need to counter the risk of osteopenia and osteoporosis;
- children growing up who need to strengthen bones and teeth;
- who has suffered a fracture and need to support bone repair.
The calcium deficiency can also affect vegans, people who are lactose intolerant, those who have problems with absorption in the intestines, those who exaggerate in alcohol or those who take certain medications.
This can be helped by specific supplements that provide Calcium and, through combination with vitamins, promote its absorption.

CALCIO K-D VEGETALE
is a dietary supplement of Calcium from Lithothamnium calcareum seaweed, a red seaweed rich in Calcium and other micronutrients, found in seawater, that promote its absorption.
The association with vitamin K2 assists the bone-promoting action of calcium, while vitamin D3 promotes its absorption and fixation in bones.
Principium Elarticol Forte offers a comprehensive approach to joint health: it provides the necessary nutrients to maintain the functional integrity of cartilage and preserves the integrity of the gut-joint axis.

ELARTICOL FORTE
is a supplement in sachets based on plant-derived glucosamine, OptiMSM® methylsulfonylmethane, HyaSource® Vita hyaluronic acid, and Arthelio®, a postbiotic complex based on lysed and freeze-dried Bifidobacterium longum CBi0703, combined with vitamin C, which contributes to normal collagen formation. The formula is completed by Vitamin D3 and Manganese..
The gut-joint axis: an innovative approach to cartilage health
To maintain good mobility, it is important to preserve joint function by nourishing the cartilage with key components such as glucosamine and hyaluronic acid, and with a source of sulphur-containing compounds such as methylsulfonylmethane.
However, joint problems can arise not only from mechanical wear and tear of the cartilage: the latest research on the gut microbiota has revealed the existence of a genuine gut-joint axis which, when the selective permeability of the intestinal barrier is altered by dysbiosis, can have a decisive impact on the integrity of the cartilage.
The synergy of the best active ingredients, for natural muscle relaxant action
Muscle tension is a vicious cycle that tends to become chronic and generally affects the neck, trapezius and shoulders, lumbar region, and leg muscles. The most frequent causes of this disorder typically are:
- stress, also related to states of anxiety, leading to tensive muscle contraction with neck and back pain;
- Prolonged poor posture;
- Traumatic events: muscle overload, whiplash, or joint trauma leading to antalgic postures and abnormal muscle contractions.
Principium has designed a solution based on natural actives that can relieve prolonged muscle tension by acting on several fronts.

TENSIOLEN
is the tablet supplement of Magnesium Bisglycinate, which promotes normal functioning of the nervous system and muscle function, and Boswellia gommo-resin titrated in Boswellic Acids, useful to counteract localized states of tension. The formulation is completed by Clove extract titrated in Beta-Caryophyllene, with antioxidant action.
