Joint Health
Millions of people suffer from joint health problems.
Our Standard American Diet or (SAD) for short, does not supply all the nutrients for good joint health.
And as we age, our bodies lose the ability to repair our joints.
Our bodies are not able to renew the supportive cartilage structures surrounding joints and bones.
Glucosamine And Boswellia
Glucosamine is an amino sugar and a key building block for larger glycosaminoglycans (proteoglycans).
These large molecules are used to make cartilage and the lubricating fluid in joints.
Boswellia, or frankincense is the gum resin from the Boswellia serrata tree.
The principal compounds of frankincense are from the boswellic acids, which have been shown to improve joint comfort.
Why Doesn’t Shaklee Use Chondroitin
Some products contain Chondroitin Shaklee doesn’t use this compound.
Chondroitin sulfate is not easily absorbed by the body when taken orally.
It only works well when injected into the joint.
Also Chondroitin interferes with the absorption of glucosamine which is normally absorbed well.
Shaklee’s Formulas Are Complex
Shaklee’s Joint Health Complex also has 100% of Daily Value of Vitamin C.
Vitamin C helps your body produce Collagen and Collagen is a component of joint cartilage.
Shaklee’s Joint Health Complex Is Fast Acting
Shaklee’s Joint Health Complex contains a patent-pending fast-acting form of boswellia extract shown in clinical studies to have superior bioactivity compared to other boswellia supplements on the market.
In a recent published study, it was shown to improve joint comfort in as few as five days.
Up to 28% faster than claimed by the leading national brand.
And Shaklee’s Joint Health Complex is a all vegetarian supplement.
People who are allergic to shellfish (the main ingredient in other brands) can take this product without fear of a bad reaction.
Shaklee adds zinc, copper, manganese, and Vitamin C,
Each of these compounds play a critical role in building healthy connective collagen and cartilage.
I personally use Join Health Complex,
I had neck and joint pain for years from construction work,
and the Joint Health Complex with Boswellia helped relieve the pain when nothing else did.
