Nearly 1/3 of all Americans suffer from chronic joint pain at some time in their lives. Few people consider the health and well being of their bones and joints.  Throughout a lifetime, the body's joints sustain significant physical stress from everyday activities like walking, bending and lifting. Under normal conditions the body is able to accomplish all of these activities with no problem because of the existence of cartilage. Cartilage is the smooth elastic tissue that covers the ends of bones, allowing them to glide across and cushion each other as the body moves. Bones and joints are intended to work synergistically to provide structure and flexibility.

   The body sustains healthy joint maintenance by continually rebuilding and regenerating cartilage; this is what allows the bones and joints to uphold their shock-absorbing capabilities. However, as the body ages or incurs injuries it is sometimes unable to sustain healthy cartilage regeneration. When the body is injured or there is a breakdown in cartilage it responds by producing inflammation within the joints to increase blood flow that allows more nutrients and oxygen to aid in the healing process.

   The Joint Relief Rx™ formula contains a proprietary blend of 6 all-natural ingredients. Joint Relief Rx™ helps to alleviate the discomfort in the bones and joints. It supports healthy joint function and helps protect the joints and tendons from injuries. *

   Our blend also contains 5 other ingredients that have been proven to help with joint relief including MSM and horsetail both used by thousands of people daily to help ward off joint pain. This carefully balanced formula has been successfully created by our biochemists to help athletes and individuals go about their lives without the constant aches and pains generated by joint inflammation. *
