Change your habits. Change your life.

In today's world, life is moving at a fast pace. We train, work, and take on passions that require focus and energy — but sometimes forget what the body actually needs.

Stress, unbalanced diet and lack of time for nutritious meals often create gaps in our nutritional intake. Add to this an active lifestyle, and the need for proper nutrition will become even greater.

A lack of nutrient intake affects everything from your energy and stamina to gut health and immune system. Suddenly, exercise feels heavier, recovery slower, and everyday life more challenging.

Relivo has been developed to help you fill those nutrient gaps in less than 60 seconds per day.

About our unique formulation

Your body is a complex set of interwoven systems and structures. This means that a holistic approach to the nutrition and health of the body is required.

Research and clinical studies show that nutrition is a complex web of interactions between nutrients, nutrient components, and cells. Relivo's basic idea is based on these collaborative principles.

The formula takes aim at three main categories:

1. Muscles, Joints & Bones

2. Gut Health & Immune System

3. Vitamins & Minerals

To achieve these synergistic effects, Relivo contains collagen peptides, boswellia, MSM, rose hips, ginger, other herbal ingredients, algae, beta glucan from oats, lactobacilli, flavonoids, enzymes, vitamins and minerals in powder form.

Together, this results in a product that not only provides an important supplement of nutrition, but also provides support for health-promoting effects.

The research behind a selection of our ingredients

Collagen

Marine collagen type I is a key ingredient in Relivo and comes from Seagarden AS on the Norwegian west coast - a pioneer in manufacturing marine collagen peptides from sustainably caught whitefish in MSC certified waters.

Collagen is the body's most abundant protein and makes up about 25-35% of all protein in the body. It is a vital structural protein found in the skin, bones, teeth, tendons, ligaments, cartilage, eyes, blood vessels, intestines and the disks of the vertebrae - basically in all the tissues of the body.

Of the 28 collagen types identified, type I is the most dominant and functionally most important, especially for joints, ligaments, skin and bones.

Why Collagen Is Crucial

Collagen is the biological building block that keeps tissues strong and elastic. It affects the mechanical, structural and regenerative properties of the body and interacts with cells via specific receptors that control, among other things, the growth, movement and differentiation of cells.

With advancing age - but also in case of stress, physical strain or overweight - the breakdown (catabolism) of collagen in the body increases. It leads to weakened tissue structure, reduced recovery and poorer skin elasticity.

Scientific support for collagen peptides

Recent research shows that hydrolyzed collagen peptides not only serve as building blocks in the form of amino acids, but also as bioactive signaling molecules.

They can stimulate the body's own fibroblasts to increase the new formation (synthesis) of collagen in joints, muscles and skin, among other things - thereby counteracting the natural degradation.

Clinical studies have shown that daily intake of collagen peptides can:

• Improved skin texture, elasticity and moisture balance (Proksch et al., 2014; Asserin et al., 2015)
• Strengthened joint and tendon health and increased muscle strength during physical activity (Zdzieblik et al., 2015)
• Increased bone mineral density and improved tissue regeneration (Yamada et al., 2013)

In recent years, further evidence has been added:

• A randomized trial from 2023 showed that daily intake of a hydrolyzed collagen complex improved joint comfort, mobility, and recovery (Effectiveness of a Hydrolyzed Cartilage Matrix Supplement, 2023).
• A another study from 2023 confirmed that oral intake of the collagen peptide NS significantly improved skin moisture, elasticity, smoothness and reduced wrinkles (Oral intake of collagen peptide NS improves hydration, elasticity, desquamation, and wrinkling in human skin, 2023).

The collagen in Relivo is optimised for uptake and efficacy

Relivo contains 6g of marine collagen per day in the form of low molecular weight peptides (< 3 kDa) - which is the form that has shown the best bioavailability and efficacy in the body.

The low molecular weight means that the peptides can be quickly absorbed, circulate in the blood and reach the tissues where they do the most good.

Seagarden's process preserves the balance of the natural amino acid profiles and provides a pure, neutral collagen with high solubility and proven safety.

The collagen is produced in Norway under GMP and HACCP certified conditions and is used in several published clinical studies on marine collagen.

Probiotics - Lactospore®

Relivo contains 2 billion spores of Bacillus coagulans MTCC 5856 (Lactospore®) - a clinically proven probiotic strain from Sabinsa Corporation, one of the world's leading players in evidence-based nutrition and nutraceuticals.

Unlike common lactic acid bacteria, Lactospore® consists of spores, which makes it extremely stable against heat, acid and gastric juice.

That means the bacteria can survive all the way through the digestive system and reach the gut alive -- where they actually do benefit.

Why Probiotics Matter

The intestinal flora affects more than just digestion. It has been shown to have a central role in immune system, metabolism, mood and energy. An imbalance (dysbiosis) can occur with stress, illness, antibiotic or nutritional deficiency, affecting the entire body - from the stomach to the brain.

Lactospore® helps restore balance by increasing the amount of beneficial bacteria while inhibiting the growth of unwanted microorganisms.

Scientifically documented effects

Several randomized, double-blind studies have shown that Lactospore®:

• Improves abdominal comfort and reduces bloating, gases, and irregular bowel function (Majeed et al., 2016)
• Strengthens the intestinal barrier and reduces inflammation in the intestine (Hun, 2009)
• Reduces IBS symptoms and improves quality of life in case of irritable bowel (Dolin, 2009; Majeed et al., 2020)
• Supports the immune system by increasing the production of short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and balancing the immune response (Ratna Sudha et al., 2019)
• Improves mental well-being and reduces stress-related stomach upset, thanks to gut—brain axis impact (Kato-Kataoka et al., 2016)

Effective where it counts

Each daily bucket of Relivo contains 2 billion CFU Lactospore®, an amount that is on par with the doses used in clinical studies.

Unlike many other probiotics, Lactospore® does not require cold storage, and its spore shape makes it resistant to acid, heat and oxidation - ensuring that the bacteria are activated first in the small intestine, where they colonize and support the microbiome.

When the spores reach the intestine, they transition to their active form and begin to produce lactic acid and other metabolites that favor good bacteria such as Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium, which creates a more balanced and resilient intestinal flora.

Boswellia serrata

Boswellia serrata, also known as Indian frankincense, is a plant extract with a long tradition in Ayurvedic medicine to relieve pain, stiffness and inflammation.

In modern research, the boswellic acids in the extract have received great interest for their clinically proven anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, especially for joint problems and mobility.

Relivo contains 500 mg of Boswellia serrata extract per day - a dose that has been shown in several clinical studies to show tangible improvements in joint comfort and mobility and gut health with no known side effects (Kizhakkedath, 2013; Haroyan et al., 2018; Majeed et al., 2019; Yu et al., 2020; Majeed et al., 2024).

How Boswellia works

The boswellic acids - most notably AKBA (acetyl-11-keto-β-boswellic acid) - inhibit the inflammatory enzyme 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) and reduce the production of leukotrienes, a major cause of problems in the joints, muscles and intestines.

In addition to this, Boswellia has been shown to:

• reduce oxidative stress and breakdown of cartilage tissue,
• support circulation and tissue regeneration,
• contribute to normal intestinal barrier and microbial balance.

Scientific support

A series of double-blind, placebo-controlled studies have shown that daily intake of 300—1000 mg of Boswellia serrata produces significant improvements in mobility and joint function. Several of these used exactly 500 mg per day, often divided into two doses, with good safety and tolerability.

• In knee problems, 500 mg per day has shown increased mobility even after a few weeks (Kizhakkedath, 2013; Majeed et al., 2019; Majeed et al., 2024).
• A systematic review (Yu et al., 2020) confirmed improved joint function with no reported adverse events.
• A recent multicenter study (Majeed et al., 2024) showed significant improvements in joint problematics and quality of life as early as five days.

MSM

Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), is an organic sulfur-containing compound that occurs naturally in various fruits, vegetables, cereals and animals.

MSM is white, odorless, and contains 34% sulfur. MSM is found in cow's milk, coffee, tomatoes, tea, chard, maize, alpha alpha and horsetail.

Sulfur is an important nutrient in the body, mainly as a presence in amino acids and several vitamins, but also various coenzymes (e.g. Coenzyme A).

MSM is good because it helps build up skin, hair, connective tissue, muscles, cartilage, tendons, and skeleton in that it contains a substance needed to form collagen.

Test-tube studies have clearly shown that MSM has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Several clinical studies support that MSM can have a positive effect on joint problems (better mobility and less sore joints).

In another controlled study (2017) over 12 weeks, MSM (1500 mg/day with or without glucosamine) produced significantly lower soreness and swelling indices compared to placebo.

Magnesium bisglycinate

Magnesium is an abundant mineral in the body. Magnesium is a cofactor in more than 300 enzyme systems that regulate various biochemical reactions in the body, including protein synthesis, muscle and nerve function, blood sugar control, and blood pressure regulation.

Despite this, studies show that up to 40% of adults do not reach the recommended daily intake (Rosique-Esteban et al., 2018). Stress, physical exertion, caffeine, alcohol and sugar increase the body's consumption, making magnesium deficiency common even among otherwise healthy individuals.

Why Magnesium is Crucial

Magnesium is necessary for the production and storage of energy (ATP), oxidative phosphorylation, and glycolysis. It contributes to the structural development of bones and teeth and is required for the synthesis of DNA, RNA and glutathione, the body's main antioxidant (Volpe, 2013).

The mineral also plays a central role in the active transport of calcium and potassium across cell membranes, which is essential for nerve signaling, muscle contraction, and normal heart rhythm (Grober et al., 2015). With exercise and stress, levels can drop quickly, affecting both physical performance and mental recovery.

Scientific support for magnesium and health

Numerous clinical and epidemiological studies show clear associations between adequate magnesium levels and improved metabolic health, muscle function, sleep and stress resilience:

• Magnesium and Human Health (2018) describes the mineral's key role in neuromuscular control, glucose metabolism, and blood pressure regulation.
• Magnesium in Aging and Health (2021) shows that magnesium deficiency is associated with increased oxidative stress, inflammation and poorer muscle function in the elderly.
• Randomized studies have shown that magnesium bisglycinate supplementation improves sleep quality, energy levels, and reduces fatigue (Abbasi et al., 2012; Boyle et al., 2017).
• Further studies have demonstrated positive effects on anxiety, blood pressure, and muscle function (Cuciureanu & Vink, 2011; Volpe, 2019).

Magnesium in Relivo - bioavailable and balanced

Each serving of Relivo contains a carefully balanced amount of magnesium bisglycinate that covers approximately 40% of the body's daily needs. This form is gentle for the stomach, quickly absorbed and easy for the cells to use, making it ideal for daily intake.

Together with the B vitamins, amino acids and trace elements in Relivo, magnesium bisglycinate supports stable energy, mental acuity, recovery and sleep quality.

B12 Methylcobalamine

Vitamin B12 is one of the body's most crucial micronutrients. It is needed for energy metabolism, blood formation, nervous system and brain function, but is also central to cells' DNA synthesis and repair.

The active form the body actually uses

Relivo uses methylcobalamin, the active form of B12 that the body can use directly. Unlike cyanocobalamin (the synthetic variant), methylcobalamin does not require conversion in the liver, and has shown higher uptake into nervous tissue and cerebrospinal fluid (Kumar et al., 2021; Nguyen et al., 2022).

Methylcobalamin acts as a methyl group donor in the production of serotonin, dopamine, and melatonin, three neurotransmitters that control mood, energy, and the sleep cycle. It is also necessary to convert homocysteine into methionine, which protects the heart and blood vessels and contributes to stable energy production in the mitochondria.
