Superior Joints

Victoria Health Superior Joints with Natural Eggshell Membrane (NEM) is a food supplement for joints that aims to provide pain relief for arthritis, knee pain, muscle pain, backache & shoulder pain relief. Superior Joints new improved formula now contains vitamin c and copper together with the original specialist nutrients, turmeric, ginger, hyaluronic acid, to aid rapid pain relief.

Natural Eggshell Membrane (NEM) - is a clinically proven source of chondroitin, hyaluronic acid, collagen and other glycosamino-glycans essential for healthy joints. NEM is clinically proven to reduce pain and stiffness and often within days! In a double-blind placebo-controlled clinical trial published in Clinical Rheumatology, more than 50% of patients noticed an improvement within 10 days. 

Superior Joints also provides a unique blend of ingredients, natural herbs and antioxidants with proven anti-inflammatory benefits including:

• Vitamin C - Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of bones and cartilage. 
• Copper - Copper contributes to the maintenance of normal connective tissues and therefore can be beneficial to cartilage (as cartilage is made up of connective tissue)
• Ginger - aside from enhancing the availability of the ingredients through its action on the production of digestive enzymes, ginger extracts are well known to inhibit the compounds that cause inflammation. Ginger contains important antioxidants that clear the joint tissues of impurities and allows fresh blood to flow into the aching areas comforting joint sores and improving flexibility and movement of muscles and bones.
• Turmeric - is known to possess powerful anti-inflammatory properties limiting the activity of the enzymes involved in inflammation (LOX and COX-2). By reducing the effects of these enzymes, turmeric may also reduce associated inflammation and alleviate pain. Turmeric is a potent antioxidant and is hence an excellent choice to help protect the joint tissues from the adverse effects of free radicals produced during the inflammatory process and hence promotes the faster recovery and repair without affecting the immune function.
• Tart Cherries - contain natural anti-inflammatory compounds. In laboratory tests carried out by Michigan State University, tart cherry compounds were found to be at least 10 times more active than aspirin without side effects. Other studies indicate that tart cherries inhibit the chemicals involved in inflammation and these same compounds also have potent antioxidant properties further protecting the joint tissues against free radical damage.
• Hyaluronic Acid - helps to stabilise the degradation of the cartilage matrix as well as aiding in the removal of waste matter including acidic compounds that cause pain and stiffness.
