Ingredients explained
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid)
Vitamin C serves as a cofactor for enzymes that cross-link collagen fibers, which may support the normal structure of connective tissue.
Caution: May cause mild stomach upset in some people; taking with food can improve tolerance.
Mucopolysaccharides
Mucopolysaccharides, also known as glycosaminoglycans, help attract and retain water in connective tissues, contributing to the matrix that supports tendon structure.
Caution: Individuals sensitive to shellfish-derived materials should check the source, as some mucopolysaccharides can be sourced from marine or animal tissues.
Collagen Type 1
Type 1 collagen provides structural amino acids that the body can use to build and maintain collagen-rich tissues like tendons and ligaments.
Caution: Contains animal-derived collagen; those avoiding animal products should be aware.
How they work together
Vitamin C supports collagen cross-linking and stabilization, while Type 1 collagen supplies structural amino acids for collagen-rich tissues. Mucopolysaccharides contribute to the hydrated extracellular matrix around collagen fibers, complementing collagen’s structural role.

Overview
- Physical Movement
- Featuring Tendaxion®
- Dietary Supplement
- Bend, Stretch and Move With Ease by Nourishing Your Tendons
- Featuring Collagen Type 1 to Address an Overlooked Aspect of Mobility
- Science-Backed Quality Since 1969
There are a lot of options out there for mobility support with supplements for joint health, muscle health, bone health, etc. But one major aspect of mobility has been overlooked, until now. Tendon Support Formula - Featuring Tendaxion® is a well-researched formula that can help promote the health of over 4,000 tendons in your body.
Every move you make is dependent on strong tendons. They are the elastic bands of tissue that connect muscle to bones and joints. Think of them as rubber bands, specifically the old bands that have been stretched too far, that have perhaps dried out and started to crack. Tendons are very much like rubber bands.
The problem is tendons are basically avascular, meaning there's very little blood supply to the tendons... meaning it's hard to deliver supporting nutrients. Tendon Support Formula utilizes the latest research out of Europe to deliver to your body the building blocks of healthy tendons. If you supply the body with what it needs to build and maintain healthy tendons, then the concern of delivering agents directly to them via the bloodstream is less of an issue.
Tendons are made primarily of collagen, but not Type 2 Collagen. Ninety-five percent of the collagen in your tendons is Type 1. You produce this in your body, but research shows that as we age, our metabolism shifts and we begin producing less Type 1. Tendaxion delivers Collagen Type 1, the precise type of collagen the tendons need to remain strong.
