Most people over age 35 have at least some wear and tear in their joints, but that doesn't mean it should cramp your style.
Osteoarthritis is the most common type of arthritis. It usually has a gradual onset and begins after the age of forty. The knees, hips, fingers and vertebrae are most susceptible. The joint deterioration is due to faulty or deficient repair of bone and cartilage in the joint. The standard North American diet is deficient in the minerals necessary for proper joint repair; therefore it is not surprising that osteoarthritis is a common concern. Osteoarthritis causes stiffness and joint pain on motion.
It is typically worse in the morning. Initially there is no inflammation or swelling of the joint. As the damage progresses the joint may become inflamed and deformed. Muscles around the joint can tense up, joint mobility may decrease and there may be a grating feeling on movement. The pain becomes constant and occurs even when at rest.
Drug Treatments Actually Worsen Arthritis
Conventional treatment with non-steroidal anti-inflammatories has been shown to worsen arthritis. Side effects of some drugs are gastrointestinal bleeding, stomach ulcers, heart attacks and liver problems. Some of these medications, especially the NSAID group can actually accelerate the degradation of joint tissue. Corticosteroids like cortisone and prednisone sometimes recommended for arthritis, while effective at relieving discomfort in the short term, can cause a loss of bone mass.
Joint Essentials
Joint Essentials is the natural solution for your joint health concerns. With a combination of active joint builders and natural side-effect free anti-inflammatory herbs, Joint Essentials offers both short term and long term relief.
- Reduce inflammation
- Reduce pain
- Improve mobility
- Stabilize joint tissue
About The Ingredients In Joint Essentials:
Glucosamine. When scientists first began studying glucosamine and chondroitin in the 1970s, they were amazed that no only did the subjects experience less pain, but also - and more importantly- their formerly degenerating cartilage had begun to repair itself. When they took a closer look at the way glucosamine and chondroitin were actually working to reduce pain and repair cartilage, they found that both of them were extremely important for normal joint health.
They found that glucosamine and chondroitin are both building blocks for the molecules that make up tendons, ligaments, bones, and synovial fluid.
They also supply a very important molecule called "proteo-glycans", a substance in joint cartilage.
The problem they found was that with age, the ability to regenerate and restore joint structure begins to fail, often due to a decrease in the natural production of glucosamine sulfate in the body. This deficiency causes the production of new joint and connective tissue to slow, causing it to both weaken. The result is pain and stiffness.
A deficiency in either glucosamine or chondroitin may lead to osteoarthritis, which is a break down of joint structure that manifests itself as stiffness (especially after periods of rest), creaking and cracking joints, as well as pain. Joint Essentials is formulated with a total of 500m of glucosamine.
Chondroitin. Chondroitin sulfate is a component of cartilage, the connective tissue disk that acts as a cushion in your joints. Cartilage also forms other parts of the body like the outer ear, tip of the nose and lining of the vessels. Cartilage is a mix of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and chondroitin is the most abundant type of GAG. Chondroitin sulfate absorbs water, making the cartilage thick and spongy, to distribute forces evenly over the joint. Loss of chondroitin makes the disk dry and brittle, lessening its ability to cushion. Chondroitin also inhibits enzymes that break down cartilage and is a part of other joint tissues.The chondroitin in Joint Essentials is 66.5mg of the superior 95% grade chondroitin.
Turmeric (Curcumin). The active ingredient in the spice turmeric is called curcumin; the same molecules inhibit inflammation, thus acting as pain relieving agents. Turmeric has been shown to improve joint mobility and reduce the pain and swelling associated with all forms of arthritis.Joint Essentials contains 66.5mg of curcumin.
Grape Seed. Grape seed extract contains nutrients called proanthocyanidins. These potent antioxidants help to stabilize collagen fibers and reduce the fraying of ligaments and tendons that contribute to joint stiffness, inflammation and pain. Joint Essentials contains 16.5mg grape seed extract.
Green Tea. Green tea's antioxidant properties neutralize free radicals and therefore reduce damage to tissue. Green tea's epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) has been shown to inhibit the growth of cancer cells and prevent the spread of tumours to other areas of the body.In respect to joint health, the active ingredients in green tea help to stablize the collagen fibers in cartilage and can help prevent further stiffening and fraying due to inflammation. The green tea content in Joint Essentials is 16.5mg.
