RFLX Care* – Digestive support with an innovative twist
RFLX Care* from EssentialSeries is a food supplement made with sodium alginate and minerals.
At HSN, we developed RFLX Care* with those looking for digestive support in mind, thanks to the calcium that helps enzymes work normally, all from a natural perspective. Its blend of sodium alginate from brown seaweed (Lessonia nigrescens), calcium carbonate, and sodium bicarbonate creates a unique synergy in an easy-to-take veggie capsule, free from unnecessary additives and with a meaningful dose in every serving.
RFLX Care: your daily buddy for keeping well in a simple yet practical way
The inspiration behind RFLX Care*
RFLX Care* was born to meet the need for a practical, concentrated formula that delivers key compounds for those meals when you need support the most.
We rely on scientific evidence
Every ingredient in RFLX Care* has been chosen based on studies backing its features and relevance in food supplement formulas.
- Sodium alginate: extracted from Lessonia nigrescens, a brown seaweed rich in polysaccharides, used for its ability to form gels and create barriers thanks to its viscosity.
- Calcium: sourced from high-purity calcium carbonate. Calcium helps enzymes work normally.
- Sodium bicarbonate: A kitchen classic we never miss after heavy meals. Its alkaline nature and pH-modifying ability are used in the formula to reduce acidity.
Together, this combo follows a clear approach: offer a real, quality, and transparent formula.
The key role of calcium in the formula
The calcium in RFLX Care* comes from calcium carbonate, a mineral source known for its excellent supply and stability. Beyond its well-known role in maintaining bones and teeth in normal conditions, calcium has a specific effect that fits perfectly with this formula’s goal: support the normal function of digestive enzymes.
This benefit is strategically integrated into RFLX Care*’s overall composition, since digestive enzymes break down food and allow proper nutrient absorption. Adequate calcium intake boosts these enzymes’ performance, optimizing digestion as a whole.
Combined with sodium alginate and sodium bicarbonate, calcium brings a double win: a science-backed effect and a functional role within the ingredient synergy that defines our formula.
A composition designed for quality
At HSN, we believe the quality of a food supplement starts with choosing the right ingredients. In RFLX Care* we went for a clean, concentrated formula with top-notch raw materials.
The formula’s base is sodium alginate, paired with pure calcium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate, all in a veggie capsule format, suitable for vegans, without colorants, preservatives, or unnecessary additives.
Sodium alginate: one of RFLX Care*’s key players
The sodium alginate in RFLX Care* comes from Lessonia nigrescens, a brown seaweed native to the cold waters of the South Pacific. This species is especially rich in long-chain polysaccharides, responsible for its most valued properties.
Its ability to form viscous gels in watery environments makes it an ingredient with very specific uses in food supplements. This trait lets it create a low-density physical film in the medium where it’s mixed, something that’s caught the attention of recent scientific studies.
In RFLX Care*, this alginate is dosed at a relevant 1000 mg per serving, providing enough alginate according to reference amounts used in scientific literature.
High-purity calcium with optimal bioavailability
In RFLX Care* we use calcium carbonate as the mineral source for its high elemental calcium concentration and excellent stability.
The choice of calcium carbonate is based on two key points:
- High purity: delivers a high fraction of elemental calcium per unit, allowing significant doses in a practical veggie capsule format.
- Optimal bioavailability: calcium carbonate has been widely studied as a calcium source and is considered a reference option.
Each serving of RFLX Care* provides 150 mg of elemental calcium that supports the normal function of digestive enzymes, a recognized benefit naturally fitting the formula’s purpose.
Sodium bicarbonate: a classic in alkaline nutrition
Sodium bicarbonate is one of the most well-known and versatile compounds in nutrition and supplementation. It has been traditionally used for its ability to modify pH and create a more alkaline environment.
In RFLX Care* we include 300 mg per serving, a carefully adjusted amount to optimally join the ingredient synergy. Its inclusion is no accident: sodium bicarbonate complements the roles of sodium alginate and calcium, adding a functional touch that enhances the formula’s overall profile.
The power is in the dose: here’s how
In RFLX Care* we didn’t just pick quality ingredients, we also designed precise proportions so each serving really delivers the most relevant amounts for the compounds to do their job. The combo of 1000 mg sodium alginate, 150 mg elemental calcium from calcium carbonate, and 300 mg sodium bicarbonate per serving isn’t random: it’s all about maximizing each component’s benefit in the formula.
This means that with just 2 veggie capsules per serving, shortly after eating, the intake is optimal to enjoy the full benefits of our supplement’s formula.
The recommendation of 2 servings daily ensures a steady, balanced supply throughout the day, supporting the formula’s function at least during the two main meals. All this follows HSN’s clean label philosophy, without adding unnecessary ingredients and keeping the formula free from additives used just for looks.
Clean Label Composition – How we work at HSN
At HSN we believe a supplement’s quality depends not only on what’s inside but also on what we choose to leave out. Under our clean label philosophy, we design formulas containing only the necessary ingredients to do their job, avoiding superfluous additives and ingredients used for aesthetic reasons.
RFLX Care* is a clear example of this approach:
- Veggie capsules made with hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, suitable for vegans or vegetarians, a hallmark already established in our capsule formulas.
- Minimal use of fillers and technological ingredients only to ensure uniform distribution of compounds in the capsules.
- Complete absence of unnecessary additives, preserving functionality in every serving.
This commitment means selecting the best raw materials and making conscious choices about ingredients for our formulas, not just from a functional standpoint. The result is a transparent, clean, and top-quality composition.
