What is it?

Joint Synergy is an advanced joint support system that helps reduce joint pain by improving the health of the joints, preventing joint degradation. It also contains several key ingredients shown to soothe the muscles, fibers and bones surrounding the joints, increasing flexibility and mobility. Nearly all of its ingredients have been clinically proven to promote joint health as well, including glucosamine, a naturally-occurring amino sugar.

What ingredients does Joint Synergy contain?

Joint Synergy contains glucosamine sulfate, MSM, noto-panax ginseng, chondroitin complex, collagen complex, sea cucumber, CMO, boswellia serrata, bromelain, white willow bark, turmeric and manganese.

Do the ingredients in Joint Synergy help reduce joint health?

A study sponsored by the National Institutes of Health says it could, especially for those suffering from osteoarthritis. According to a 2006 clinical trial reported by About.com, an oral glucosamine-chondroitin combination was shown to reduce joint pain in people suffering from moderate to severe osteoarthritis of the knee, and further evidence suggests it can also reduce cartilage loss in osteoarthritis sufferers. Cartilage loss is a common symptom that can cause arthritis by reducing the cushioning between the joints. Furthermore, turmeric has been shown in some studies to reduce joint pain, especially for arthritis sufferers.

Is Joint Synergy safe?

Although glucosamine sulfate may reduce blood glucose levels, Joint Synergy contains very few side effects. It may not be safe for diabetics, however, due to its glucose-lowering effects.

Verdict:

Joint Synergy has been shown to reduce joint pain in several types of arthritis, including osteoarthritis.
