Sci-MX Joint Support Complex 120 Caps

Our joints undergo a vast amount of stress and wear throughout our lifetime. Exercise, injury, age and disease can all place strain on our joints. These factors can cause long term wear of the connective tissue and deplete the body’s stored levels of joint-supporting nutrients such as glucosamine, which is a naturally occurring amino-acid based sugar that is vital to connective tissue maintenance.

Our joints and bones are dependant on these nutrients for daily maintenance, repair and regeneration.Beyond its use as a sports performance supplement, Joint Support Complex is also a firm favourite for individuals suffering from various other joint related ailments.

Our joints are protected by cartilage, the “shock-absorbers” for our joints. Over time, cartilage can wear away. This can result in our bones (joints) making contact with each other and subsequently causing acute pain and discomfort. Joint Support Complex provides nutrients which are important building blocks needed by the body to manufacture specialized molecules called glycosaminoglycans, found in cartilage.

Joint Support Complex is a safe and effective way to reduce joint pain. Many athletes use it to protect their joints, making a future injury less likely. Glucosamine, which occurs naturally in the body, plays a key role in the construction of cartilage - the tough connective tissue that cushions the joints. Glucosamine stimulates the production of glycosaminoglycans (the key structural components of cartilage) as well as the incorporation of sulfur into cartilage. Sulfur is necessary for making and repairing cartilage.

Joint Support Complex may be effective in treating and possibly slowing the progression of osteoarthritis. This is a type of arthritis caused by continuous wear and tear on the joints leading to inflammation, breakdown, and eventual loss of cartilage. The tissues most affected by osteoarthritis are the weight bearing joints, such as the knees and hips, as well as the joints in the hands. Glucosamine, in combination with the other nutrients fount in Sci-MX’s Joint Support Complex, has been shown to speed recovery from injury, significantly reduce joint pain, and improve mobility.

Glucosamine can also reverse joint degeneration in osteoarthritis sufferers. A number of well-controlled studies show that glucosamine can reduce pain without the side effects often seen with commonly prescribed medications. Studies suggest that glucosamine is equally as effective as some of the medications frequently used to treat this joint condition, but with fewer gastrointestinal side effects. The medications used to treat osteoarthritis are known as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as ibuprofen and piroxicam. They tend to cause stomach upset, cramps, constipation, diarrhoea, and in some cases, stomach ulcers. Unlike these medications for joint pain (which only control the symptoms) Joint Support Complex reduces joint pain and tenderness, while at the same time rebuilding damaged cartilage. It will also reduce reliance on anti-inflammatory drugs, and, in many cases, will be superior to ibuprofen for controlling joint pain.
