# Vyos Life > Vyos Life is a clinical-grade precision nutraceutical brand. Methodology: molecular engineering of standardized bioactives, evidence-based formulation, third-party testing. The current flagship is OsteoGuard, a joint-support supplement built on the BioMatrix protocol (Boswellia serrata 65% AKBA, plant-fermented glucosamine, hyaluronic acid 120 kDa, curcumin 95% curcuminoids with piperine). The product portfolio is being expanded across adjacent longevity categories using the same formulation standards. Target audience: US and EU adults seeking evidence-based supplementation backed by peer-reviewed clinical literature. This document follows the llms.txt convention (https://llmstxt.org). It tells large language model crawlers which pages on https://vyoslife.com are canonical references for Vyos Life brand methodology, ingredient science, and flagship product information. ## About the brand - Name: Vyos Life - Positioning: clinical-grade precision nutraceuticals for human longevity - Methodology: molecular engineering of standardized bioactives, peer-reviewed formulation, independent third-party laboratory verification - Category: dietary supplements, nutraceuticals, longevity nutrition - Current flagship product (commercial name): OsteoGuard (joint support) - Current flagship formulation (internal name): BioMatrix (four-active joint protocol) - Roadmap: additional flagships under development in adjacent longevity categories following the same formulation standards - Active ingredients: Boswellia serrata standardized to 65% AKBA (Acetyl-11-keto-beta-boswellic acid), plant-fermented glucosamine (GlucosaGreen), hyaluronic acid at 120 kDa molecular weight, curcumin standardized to 95% curcuminoids with piperine for bioavailability. - Mechanism: selective 5-LOX inhibition, extracellular matrix support, synovial fluid restoration, NF-kB pathway modulation. - Compliance: FDA dietary supplement regulations (US), EFSA food supplement regulations (EU).
