Joint Health Support / with Glucosamine & MSM
Joint Health Support is a superior formula designed for supporting joint and connective tissue health. It contains 1000 mg of fully reacted glucosamine sulfate along with chondroitin complex, both well known for their cartilage supporting properties. Boswellia, turmeric and bromelain provide additional antiinflammatory benefits to the joints. Several other key nutrients including MSM round out this high powered formula. MSM is a potent source of organic sulfur which plays a crucial part in proper collagen and cartilage formation for healthy pain-free bones and joints.

DESCRIPTION
Supporting a healthy balance between the processes of cartilage synthesis and degradation is crucial for proper functioning of the joints. Joint Health Support provides key nutraceuticals to help support a healthy inflammatory response, facilitate cartilage synthesis and provide antioxidant support.
FUNCTIONS
Articular cartilage is the smooth, white tissue that covers the ends of bones where they come together to form joints. Healthy cartilage makes it easier to move by allowing the bones to glide over each other with very little friction. Cartilage is slow to regenerate and despite its toughness, normal wear and tear and inflammation can outpace repair, leading to pain and limited range of motion. Proper nutrition can, however support healthy joint function and several nutrients have been studied for their efficacy. These are included in this Joint Health Support formula. To help support the structural integrity of joint cartilage, glucosamine and chondroitin offer significant benefits. Glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate are both integral components of healthy joint tissue and are the forms that have been used in the major clinical trials. Glucosamine sulfate helps support the production, and limit the breakdown of proteoglycans, a class of compounds that make up the cartilage matrix of joint tissue.
Chondroitin sulfate has been shown to support the structural matrix of joints as well as the production of hyaluronic acid (major component of synovial fluid which keeps joints “lubricated” and moving freely). Chondroitin sulfate may also help limit chondrocytes from producing enzymes and other compounds that stimulate the breakdown of the cartilage matrix of joint tissue. OptiMSM® is the purest and most bioavailable MSM on the market. MSM is a source of the mineral sulfur which plays a significant role in formation and retention of healthy cartilage and other types of connective tissue. MSM may also help support a normal, healthy inflammatory response. Standardized boswellia can effectively inhibit pathways involved in the inflammatory process and support healthy joint function. Herbal preparations of turmeric, quercetin, grape seed extract and ginger contain powerful antioxidants that reduce free radicals that are found in inflamed joints and contribute to cartilage degradation. Other nutrients like vitamin C, manganese and L-proline facilitate cartilage synthesis.
INDICATIONS
Joint Health Support may be a useful dietary supplement for those who wish to support healthy joint function by providing key nutrients to support cartilage synthesis.
