I think that is a huge price for a product that contains a list:
proprietary ingredients... which do NOT tell you how much of each is in there.

As well as misspellings of some of the ingredients as well.
Tumeric is not well absorbed, and hyaluronic acid is very expensive and requires high doses.

I never recommend that people try supplement mixtures that do not give better more complete information.

Only two ingredients are listed accurately...and both of them are very inexpensive to buy separately!

Marketing like this lures people in who like expensive technical sounding medical things. But in reality you may be receiving very little besides the Vit C and 1000 IUs of D.
And notice...you have to consume TWO caps to get what is listed!

I think this is very costly for what you get in return, IF you get anything out of it at all! Just my opinion.

There is another Flex Protex list of ingredients:

My comments regarding curcumin still pertain. This is poorly absorbed, unless it has an enhancing oil added, bioperine, or the new microencapsuled beads (this one is hard to obtain).
This one also has a proprietary blend. It appears to be changing or the name is being used by others?
This is a very expensive supplement.
