Nutrisage Joint Health

All ingredients synergistically work towards rebuilding of Cartilage and synovial fluid which is lost and thus regaining natural anatomy of joint.This process of rebuilding happens over a period of time.

1. GLUCOSAMINE

It is a simple molecule that is used by the body to form connective tissue, tendons, and ligaments. It is found naturally in high concentrations in joint structures throughout the body. It plays an important role in making glycosaminoglycans and glycoproteins, which are essential building blocks of many parts of your joints, including ligaments, tendons, cartilage and synovial fluid. Although the body makes its own glucosamine, supplements can be helpful in some situations, especially since the natural sources of the substance are inedible. Also, as we age, the levels in the body may decrease.

Available

Glucosamine is available as a supplement, usually derived from the shells of oysters, crabs, and shrimp.

2.CHONDROITIN

It is an amino sugar polymer, made up of glucuronic acid and galactosamine. It is a major component of the extracellular matrix. Its an important structural component of cartilage and is responsible for most of its resistance to compression. As a major component of cartilage, chondroitin sulfate helps cushion the joints. Chondroitin sulfate is believed to provide structure, hold water and nutrients, and promote elasticity in cartilage. It is considered an essential substance for the maintenance of healthy joints.

Availability

Chondroitin sulfate usually comes from animal cartilage

3. HYALURONIC ACID

It is a substance that is naturally present in the human body. It is found in the highest concentrations in fluids in the eyes and joints. Hyaluronic Acid , also called hyaluronan, is an anionic, glycosaminoglycan distributed widely throughout connective, epithelial and neural tissues. It is unique among glycosaminoglycans in that it is non-sulfated. Hyaluronic acid works by acting as a cushion and lubricant in the joints and other tissues. In addition, it might affect the way the body responds to injury.

Need

The loss of hyaluronic acid appears to contribute to joint pain and stiffness of joints. Studies indicate that supplemental hyaluronic acid may coax the joint into increasing its own production of this important substance, which may in turn help to preserve cartilage

Availability

Hyaluronic acid is available as a supplement, independently and in combination with other supplements. the common dosage are 120-240 mg per day.

Type II Collagen : Type II collagen (CII) is a peptide and a major component of joint cartilage. When taken as a supplement, CII is usually in one of two forms: undenatured or hydrolyzed. Undenatured collagen has been minimally processed at a low temperature to keep its peptides mostly intact. Undenatured CII has been proposed to improve joint pain through an effect on the immune system. More specifically, CII peptides are thought to induce the formation of regulatory T cells (Tregs) in areas of the gut known as Preyer’s patches. These Tregs can enter circulation, where they produce anti-inflammatory compounds (e.g., IL-10), which in theory can inhibit inflammation and tissue damage in joints. The hydrolysis of type II collagen seems to result in the breakdown of the most immunologically active peptides, meaning that the effect of hydrolyzed collagen on joints may not act via this mechanism. However, in higher doses, hydrolyzed CII might improve joint pain by supplying the amino acids used to repair the damaged tissue.

People who has chronic osteoarthritis(suffering from osteoarthritis from more than 6-12 mths)Generally, your uric acid level is high when:

Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis, affecting millions of people worldwide and >90% of Indian joint pain patients. It occurs when the protective cartilage that cushions the ends of the bones wears down over time. Although osteoarthritis can damage any joint, the disorder most commonly affects joints in your hands, knees, hips and spine.

SYMPTOMS

Osteoarthritis symptoms often develop slowly and worsen over time. Signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis include: PAIN: Affected joints might hurt during or after movement. STIFFNESS: Joint stiffness might be most noticeable upon awakening or after being inactive. TENDERNESS: Your joint might feel tender when you apply light pressure to or near it. LOSS OF FLEXIBILITY: You might not be able to move your joint through its full range of motion. GRATING SENSATION: You might feel a grating sensation when you use the joint, and you might hear popping or crackling. BONE SPURS: These extra bits of bone, which feel like hard lumps, can form around the affected joint. SWELLING: This might be caused by soft tissue inflammation around the joint.

Adult: 1 tablet twice a day(15-20 minutes after Meal) or as recommended by your physician.

FOR BETTER RESULTS: We recommend you take The Joints Co Ultra Ease for longer period.Arthritis is a long battle and you may see some results in first 2-3 months,however if you want significant results you need to keep taking it for longer period.Get in touch with our customer care for Subscription Plans or choose from provided ones.

CHRONIC OSTEOARTHRITIS

Use The Joints Co Advanced Herbs Plus along with The Joints Co Ultra Ease for first 3-4 months and once you see improvement in pain quotient,stop Advanced Herbs Plus and continue Ultra Ease.

Osteoarthritis involves loss of cartilage and synovial fluid so we recommend diets higher in collagen and calcium.

DO'S:

Include high calcium rich foods (beans, milk, cheese, tofu, fish, dry fruits) Eat fresh, alkalizing vegetables and fruits every day, preferably organic. Prefer home made foods over outside foods. Do check for iodine content on food labels. Include omega-3 rich foods such as fish, walnuts, almonds, flax seeds, olive oil, canola oil.

DON'TS:

Avoid consumption of caffeinated products.

Limit the intake of phosphorus containing foods- meat, soft drinks.

Never consume Iron rich foods along with calcium rich foods as that might lead to malabsorption.

Foods with high levels of oxalic acid such as spinach, collard greens, sweet potatoes, rhubarb and beans prevent calcium absorption. So don't consume calcium rich foods along with these foods.
