Why is Inflammation Management Important?
Inflammation is a double-edged sword. While short-term inflammation is a necessary and healthy response to injury, recurring inflammation due to prolonged stressors can cause a healthy inflammation response to get stuck in an overactive cycle. If the body is unable to reset the balance, sustained or chronic inflammation can compromise the body’s ability to self-heal.
Cyactiv is a proprietary formula proven to reduce systemic inflammation that has been associated with a myriad of health issues. Balancing whole-body inflammation assists the homing of stem cells to affected tissues.
Clinical research shows Cyactiv helps balance multiple inflammation pathways, supporting a fully active lifestyle.
PRODUCT EDUCATION Inflammation
What is Inflammation?
Redness, swelling, tenderness, heat and disturbed function of an area of the body, especially as a reaction of tissues to injurious agents.
For example, if you have a cut, an injury or an infection, local compounds are then released to increase the blood flow to that area to attract immune cells and adult stem cells, so that these cells can do their job and repair the tissue.
Then when this area is repaired, everything goes back to normal. However if the area doesn’t repair and fully recover, the inflammation continues and can become systemic and silent.
Examples of this are:
Getting up in the morning with pain in your knees, discomfort and stiffness in your hips, shoulder or neck. You may have trouble turning your head to back your car, lifting your arms to hang out the washing, difficulty turning over in bed at night.
These are all examples of inflammation that you can feel. When you have inflammation that you can feel, you can guarantee that you have inflammation that you can’t feel.
For example, in the blood vessels or the liver, lungs, or heart etc. Where we don’t have pain, this is systemic inflammation and this is the engine that drives many of the most feared illness of middle and old age.
How does inflammation affect Adult Stem Cells?
It prevents adult stem cells from properly identifying the tissues that are in need of repair.

Cyactiv is a patented extract of spirulina standardized to phycocyanin content of greater than 30%. Phycocyanin acts in synergy with other compounds present in the extract, in order to calm and balance whole body inflammation.
Cyactiv®
Arthrospira platensis, also known as spirulina, is a blue-green algae like AFA (Aphanizomenon flos aquae). It provides a wide variety of micronutrients and macronutrients and contains specific active compounds such as phycocyanin, which constitutes the blue pigment of blue-green algae.
Spirulina is cultivated and harvested in sunny regions of the world such as the United States, Greece, Spain, Japan and India (Karkos et al., 2011). It is well known for its nutritional richness in macro and micronutrients. It is composed of more than 60% proteins and 14% of carbohydrates. It is a good source of polyunsaturated fatty acids, essential amino acids, and micronutrients such as Iron, Calcium, Magnesium, Phosphorus and Selenium. It is used in nutritional supplementation all over the world.
Spirulina is a good source of phenolic compounds and beta carotenes, which represent two categories of antioxidants. It supports the immune system (Finamore et al., 2017) and helps maintain vitality.
After more than 2 decades of experience in aquatic agriculture and harvesting, Cerule has become an expert in the production of exclusive and unique extracts. Recently, Cerule has extended its production capacities to transform spirulina in order to isolate phycocyanin and other active compounds present in spirulina.
