Ingredients explained
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid)
Vitamin C is a cofactor for prolyl and lysyl hydroxylase enzymes that help stabilise and cross-link collagen fibres, which may support healthy connective tissue structure.
Caution: May cause mild stomach upset in some people; taking with food can improve tolerance.
Mucopolysaccharides
Mucopolysaccharides, also known as glycosaminoglycans, contribute to the extracellular matrix where they attract water and support the viscoelastic properties of connective tissues.
Caution: Source is not specified; those with specific dietary restrictions should review for suitability.
Collagen Type 1
Type 1 collagen provides structural amino acids that the body can use to build and maintain collagen-rich tissues such as tendons and ligaments.
Caution: Contains animal-derived collagen; not suitable for vegetarians or vegans and may be unsuitable for those avoiding bovine or marine sources.
How they work together
Vitamin C supports collagen maturation and stability, while Type 1 collagen supplies structural peptides used to build connective tissue. Mucopolysaccharides contribute to the hydrated matrix around collagen fibres, complementing collagen’s tensile 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 utilises 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.
