Healthy Aging

[Extra! Extra!] Three PLT Ingredients for Healthy Aging

by Eric Munson | March 1, 2025

Steve Fink, vice president, marketing at New Jersey-based PLT Health Solutions, elaborated on how AprèsFlex, Strengthera and Nutricog can benefit healthy aging and longevity.

AprèsFlex

AprèsFlex 5-Day Joint Support is a patented, synergistic Boswellia serrata gum resin extract. In four human clinical studies, it has been shown to enhance joint comfort, improve flexibility, functional mobility and cartilage health.

“AprèsFlex is distinguished by its low 100 mg/day dose in use and clinically demonstrated efficacy starting at 5 days–compared with traditional joint health ingredients that require much higher use levels with efficacy starting in the months range,” Fink said.

Strengthera

Strengthera Muscle Maintenance+Vitality is a new ingredient that has been clinically demonstrated in a senior demographic to improve strength, endurance, stability and mobility, enhancing independence, vitality and overall quality of life.

“This botanical complex is supported by multiple clinical studies including a newly completed study showing statistically significant improvements in muscle strength, muscle endurance and physical function in an over-55 demographic,” Fink said. “The low-dose ingredient works quickly, with study subjects showing improvements in lower body and grip strength, and muscle endurance with significant results beginning at four weeks.”

Nutricog

Nutricog Cognitive Performance Complex is a patented combination of haritaki (Terminalia chebula) and boswellia (Boswellia serrata) — standardized to gallic acid, ellagic acid and amyrins.

In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial, users of Nutricog demonstrated significant improvements compared to placebo across multiple cognitive domains, including learning, memory, sustained attention, working memory and executive function, where increases in cognitive speed were seen concurrently with improvements in accuracy while multitasking. The earliest clinically significant benefits (memory and focus) for Nutricog were shown to start at just 15 days after commencing use

The benefits of Nutricog on an aging population translate into everyday life:

• Improved memory, focus, decision-making and concentration

• Help for effortlessly remembering names and dates

• Avoiding distraction and maintaining mental agility

• Help in recognizing names, facts and places

• Help in making fewer mistakes in recalling and processing information

• Improving learning ability and learning rate

• Help in maintaining long term brain health

“From a consumer product development perspective, there are no other ingredients on the market that have statistically significant and clinically meaningful research results across as many cognitive domains as Nutricog,” Fink said. “From focus and attention, memory and learning to multitasking and decision making, Nutricog checks more boxes with benefits starting at 15 days and continuing to accrue through the end of the four-month study.”
