Daily activities are normally taken for granted without ever thinking about the stress our joints have to bear. When our joints are working well, movement is easy. However, when joints are challenged, movement can be restricted, and our life becomes more difficult. Various nutrients may be used to nutritionally support joints and connective tissue. Researchers are now unraveling how the mechanisms of specific supplements may promote healthy joint function. Carlson NUTRA-SUPPORT JOINT is a specialty supplement that provides natural nutritional support for the joints and cartilage. It promotes normal joint function and provides components for healthy new cartilage. NUTRA-SUPPORT® JOINT includes the following nutrients: NATURAL-SOURCE GLUCOSAMINE SULFATE: Hailed in many journals, glucosamine sulfate provides components involved in the connective tissue matrix of ligaments, tendons, cartilage, and joints. Natural-source glucosamine sulfate from purified marine shellfish is easily absorbed, targets the joints and stimulates healthy function. NATURAL-SOURCE CHONDROITIN & COLLAGEN II: Cartilage is a natural and rich source of chondroitin sulfate, with the additional benefits of collagen II – an effective duo for the dynamics and demands of everyday movement.

Approximately 10% of our sulfur stores are found in our bones. Carlson NUTRA-SUPPORT JOINT provides MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane), a highly bioavailable form of sulfur, for nutritional and mineral support. VITAMIN C: Vitamin C contributes to the health of all our tissues, and is most recognized for its role in the production of collagen. Recent studies indicate that vitamin C may work to inhibit cartilage erosion by increasing our own production of glycosaminoglycans that are necessary for smooth and easy joint movement.
