Glucosamine,
chondroitin sulfate, and vitamin C provide the building blocks
necessary. Liquid Joint Care is a highly bio-available liquid
formulation. It has been designed to provide essential nutrients.
This unique joint support formula not only provides critical
nourishment but also delivers serious joint protection at
the cellular level. Joint injuries do far more then just hurt.
When
an athlete joints are damaged the pain and loss of flexibility
cause a loss of mobility, function and can affect strength.
Joint damage can rob you of months of hard-earned gains and
fitness. It doesn't matter if you're a runner, a cyclist,
a bodybuilder, or a ball player - joint injuries affect all
types of athletes.
The
Five active ingredients have been shown clinically to be important
for healthy joints. These components are Glucosamine, Chondroitin,
bioavailable sulfur Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), Cetyl myristoleate
(CMO) and vitamin C. Glucosamine, an amino sugar, is an important
structural component of glycosaminoglycans. Chondroitin sulfate
lends additional structural support via its high degree of
interaction with collagen fibers. Bioavailable sulfur (MSM)
plays an important role, Vitamin C, essential for the production
of collagen, also serves as an effective free radical scavenger
to protect cells.
MSM
is naturally occurring organic sulfur found in the tissues
of all plants and animals (including humans). In fact, sulfur
is the fourth most abundant mineral in the body. The proper
acid/alkaline balance of the body cannot be maintained without
it. It must be present for collagen to be produced, and is
a major component in the formation of cartilage and connective
tissues. Symptoms associated with sulfur deficiencies include
a poorly functioning immune system, gastrointestinal problems,
allergies, arthritis, nail, hair, and skin problems. If the
body is not receiving enough sulfur it produces weak, dysfunctional
cells. Our highly processed modern diet, air, soil, and water
pollution, over farming and deforestation have made adequate
nutritional sulfur unavailable to most people through food
alone. Supplementation with MSM is a safe way to insure sufficient
sulfur intake. MSM is virtually nontoxic (about the same as
normal water) and poses none of the risks associated with
other supplemental sources of sulfur. MSM should be present
in all the produce we consume; however it is easily destroyed
by heat or processing of foods. Therefore finding MSM in our
readily available foods is getting harder to do. The half-life
of MSM is only 12 hours when consumed within the body. Therefore
supplementation with MSM should be repeated during the entire
day. The body uses amino acids and particularly Vitamin C
with bioflavonoids to metabolize MSM to sulfur; therefore
adequate Vitamin C intake is also important. Jacob, S. W.,
“The Current Status of MSM in Medicine,”
Glucosamine
is a natural sugar produced by the body and found in certain
foods. It is found largely in cartilage and plays an important
role in the health and resiliency of this tissue. As we age,
we lose some of the glucosamine and other substances in cartilage.
This can lead to the thinning of cartilage and the onset and
progression of arthritis.
When taken orally, (liquid) glucosamine sulfate is absorbed
readily into the system and can be traced to cartilage as
soon after consumption. Additionally, in some studies, the
supplement demonstrated a protective effect on the cartilage
as well.
Chondroitin
Sulfate is a glycosaminogly that enhances the synthesis
of glycoproteins. Chondroitin has the added ability to protect
existing cartilage. Chondroitin sulfates act like 'liquid
magnets'. It helps attract fluid into the proteoglycan molecules.
This is important for two reasons; the fluid sweeps nutrients
into the cartilage and the fluid acts as a spongy shock absorber.
It has been demonstrated that chondroitin can protect existing
cartilage from a premature break. Glucosamine sulfate and
chondroitin sulfate can work synergistically when taken together.
Cetyl
Myristoleate is made from fatty acid, myristoleic acid,
and is combined with a long-chain alcohol molecule, cetyl
alcohol. Both of these molecules are found in nature. Cetyl
myristoleate seems to function as a surfactant to lubricate
joints. Some researchers claim that it not only lubricates
the involved joints, but also lubricates the entire body.
For this reason both osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis
sufferers report the ability to cope better with their condition.
Vitamin
C plays an important role as an antioxidant and free radical
scavenger of inflammatory bio-chemicals, which may further
damage normal joint tissue. Vitamin C also enhances the absorption
of and synergy between glucosamine and chondroitin and is
essential for the proper formation of collagen in connective
tissues. “Vitamin C is essential for the building of collagen,
the most abundant protein built in our bodies and the major
component of connective tissue. [Wolbach, S. B.., and Howe,
P. R. Ïntercellular substance in experimental scorbutus" Arch.
Path., 1:1, 1926] This connective tissue has structural and
supportive functions which are indispensable to heart tissues,
to blood vessels, --in fact, to all tissues. Collagen is not
only the most abundant protein in our bodies, it also occurs
in larger amounts than all other proteins put together. It
cannot be built without vitamin C. No heart or blood vessel
or other organ could possibly perform its functions without
collagen. No heart or blood vessel can be maintained in healthy
condition without vitamin C.” (Roger J. Williams, Nutrition
Against Disease, 1971.) “One important function of vitamin
C is in the formation and maintenance of collagen, the basis
of connective tissue, which is found in skin, ligaments, cartilage,
vertebral discs, joint linings, capillary walls, and the bones
and teeth. Collagen, and thus vitamin C, is needed to give
support and shape to the body, to help wounds heal, and to
maintain healthy blood vessels. Specifically, ascorbic acid
works as a coenzyme to convert proline and lysine to hydroxyproline
and hydroxylysine, both important to the collagen structure.”

Liquid
vs. Capsules or Tablets:
According to the Physician’s Desk Reference * liquid preparations
provide up to a 98% absorption rate in the body as compared
to the 10% to 20% absorption by pills and capsules. (*2000
Issue page 1674). Liquid supplements work faster than capsules
or tablets. Many individuals, very young and elderly, have
a hard time taking capsules or tablets. Many times capsules
become more of a problem than a solution. The digestive system
of some elderly people is often too weak to assimilate capsules.
A liquid is easy to swallow and can be given to either a baby
or senior citizen with safety and confidence. Because Liquid
Joint Care is absorbed much more efficiently and works faster
you simply get better results, sooner.
