What Is It?

Joint Complex (single dose) supports joint function and comfort with cartilage building blocks and herbal extracts in convenient one-per-day dosing*
Joint Health: Joint Complex (single dose) contains UC-II® undenatured type-II collagen complex, hyaluronic acid and MSM to support joint health, flexibility and comfort. 
In a randomized, double-blind trial involving 52 subjects, 40 mg of UC-II was more than twice as effective in promoting joint health as 1,500 mg of glucosamine and 1,200 mg of chondroitin as rated by WOMAC, VAS and the Lequesne functional index. 
Another study involving five women supplemented with 40 mg of UC-II for 42 days, indicated statistically significant support for joint comfort and flexibility. MSM provides sulfur to enhance the structure and integrity of proteoglycans. A randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled trial indicates that MSM promotes joint comfort and function. Recent research suggests that MSM may also support antioxidant capacity during exercise. Hyaluronic acid helps maintain water retention in tissues and joints to support joint lubrication and shock absorption. HyaMax® sodium hyaluronate provides a low molecular weight source of hyaluronic acid produced through fermentation. In a pharmacokinetic study, orally administered HyaMax® hyaluronic acid was incorporated into joints, connective tissue and skin, with a particular affinity for cartilaginous joints. Lastly, 5-LOXIN® AKBA boswellia and enhanced absorption Meriva® turmeric extracts help maintain healthy 5-lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase-2 enzyme activity and cytokine metabolism to offer additional joint comfort support.
What Is The Source?
UC-II® undenatured type-II collagen complex is derived from chicken sternum cartilage using a patented, low-temperature manufacturing process and standardized to contain 10mg undenatured type-II collagen. Low molecular weight hyaluronic acid is derived from fermentation. MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) is synthetic. Meriva® turmeric phytosome is derived from turmeric extract, sourced
from Curcuma longa root and standardized to contain 18% curcuminoids, and a phospholipid complex, derived from soy. 5-LOXIN® AKBA extract is derived from Boswellia serrata gum resin and standardized to contain 30% 3-acetyl-11-ketobeta-boswellic acid (AKBA). Ascorbyl palmitate is derived from corn dextrose fermentation and palm oil.
