What is it?

Iceland Health Joint Relief is a dietary supplement that claims to ease joint and muscle discomfort caused by poor bone health, which could eventually lead to arthritis, or worse, an increased risk for painful bone fractures. It also claims to increase joint lubrication, increasing flexibility in the joints. Its ingredients have also been clinically proven to work: collagen and chondroitin sulfate have both been shown to improve joint health by Harvard and Johns Hopkins.

What ingredients are in Iceland Health Joint Relief?

Iceland Health Joint Relief contains omega 3 fish oil concentrate, omega 3 fatty acids, EPA, DHA, and a proprietary blend of glucosamine sulfate, collagen, chondroitin sulfate and hyaluronic acid.

Do the ingredients in Iceland Health Joint Relief help improve joint health?

Yes--its ingredients have been clinically shown to reduce joint pain and inflammation. According to a 2004 study conducted by the University of Pittsburgh, fish oil may have the biggest benefit for joint pain sufferers--especially for those suffering from additional joint inflammation. The study, which surveyed 120 patients and their reaction to omega-3 fatty acid supplements, showed that it significantly decreased joint pain, and in some cases, worked better than non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It also had few side effects compared to anti-inflammatory medications.

But it gets better: both collagen and glucosamine sulfate have also been clinically shown, and in some countries, approved to treat joint pain caused by rheumatoid arthritis, a inflammation-causing disease that can cause moderate to severe joint pain.

Is Iceland Health Joint Relief safe?

Yes--there have been few side effects associated with any of its ingredients.

Verdict:

Iceland Health Joint Relief is natural—and it works, especially for those suffering from moderate to severe joint pain.
