Granite Supplements – Joint Care

There are six main types of joints in the human body: pivot, hinge, saddle, flat, ellipsoid and ball joint. These are held together by cartilage, ligaments, tendons and the synovial membrane. The wear and tear that athletes exert on joints results in the destruction of cartilage, loss of lubrication and inflammation.

Nourishing your joints from the inside out helps preserve cartilage and repair damage. Granite Supplements Joint Care formulation is designed to relieve joint pain quickly and effectively by reducing discomfort caused by swelling and stiffness while improving overall joint health. You may notice a distinct lack of glucosamine + chondroitin note. Those supplements may be sufficient for non-active lifestyles and pets, but athletes just need something more effective. UC-II® non-denatured type II collagen is supported by a large number of clinical studies to significantly improve joint comfort and function. In fact, it improved joint health parameters 35% better than glucosamine + chondroitin (via WOMAC-validated test method). We added the recommended dosage of 40 mg for maximum effectiveness.

Curcumin C3 Complex® Turmeric root extract is the leading clinically studied natural anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. We have ensured the best ingredients by choosing a Curcumin C3 Complex® that contains a minimum of 95% curcuminoids. It also contains two curcumin compounds that together provide more health benefits than curcumin alone, including protection against oxidative stress and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract.

Boswellia Serrata extract with AKBA Maintains healthy 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) activity and inhibits leukotriene biosynthesis. In other words, it prevents inflammatory effects at the cellular level. AKBA helps maintain the structural integrity of articular cartilage. Hyaluronic acid Hyaluronic acid binds to water and produces a viscous, jelly-like consistency that acts as a shock absorber in the joint. It promotes the growth of new cells and tissues and reduces inflammation. Ginger combined with curcumin and Boswellia is a perfect trifecta of natural anti-inflammatory herbal extracts.

Black pepper The piperine in black pepper has a significant advantage as it can increase the absorption of curcumin in turmeric by up to 2,000%. Boron is an important trace mineral essential for bone growth and maintenance. It also reduces levels of inflammatory biomarkers, increases levels of antioxidant enzymes and is an important addition to any joint health regimen.
