NutraBio Extreme Joint Care

Athletes and active individuals are unique in that they put their bodies through high levels of physical stress day in and day out which, over time, can cause excessive wear and tear on joints, tendons, and cartilage. Over time this "wear and tear" can often lead to more serious issues such as musculoskeletal injuries, joint inflammation and stiffness, and in the worst case scenario symptoms of osteoarthritis can appear. These issues can often have a crippling effect when it comes to further exercise and activities of daily living. This is why NutraBio developed Extreme Joint Care... a full joint and musculoskeletal support matrix containing clinically validated and scientifically dosed patented ingredients that supports overall joint health, and helps to support cartilage and joint function.

The Science Behind NutraBio Extreme Joint Care
A closer look at the key ingredients and doses used to make NutraBio Extreme Joint Care the premier joint support matrix on the market.

VITAMIN D3 (2000 IU)

Vitamin D, also known as the sunshine vitamin, has many health benefits as a fat soluble vitamin.*

Vitamin D assists with calcium absorption and maintains calcium and phosphate levels. Without sufficient Vitamin D, bones can become weakened.*

Vitamin D serves other functions in the body including neuromuscular function and immune function.*

Low levels of vitamin D have been shown to correlate with many joint issues such as inflammatory joint disease, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, and musculoskeletal back pain.*

MANGANESE (10mg)

Manganese is a trace mineral that is present in tiny amounts in the body. It is found mostly in bones, the liver, kidneys, and pancreas.

Manganese helps the body form connective tissue, bones, blood clotting factors, and sex hormones.*

Low levels of manganese in the body can contribute to infertility, bone malformation, weakness, and seizures. Some experts estimate that as many as 37% of Americans do not get the recommended dietary intake (RDI) of manganese in their diet.

D-GLUCOSAMINE SULFATE 2KCL (1500mg)

Glucosamine Sulfate is an amino sugar and a precursor in the biochemical synthesis of glycosylated proteins and lipids found in the body. Glycosaminoglycans are highly polar, and attract water which in turn is useful for the body to use as a lubricant component of cellular fluidity and joint mobility.

Glucosamine produced in the body is a natural component in the maintenance of cartilage.

CHRONDROITIN SULFATE (540mg)

Chondroitin Sulfate functions as a glycosaminoglycan to form what are called proteoglycans. Proteoglycans and collagen comprise the two most important components of connective tissue.

Proteoglycans form the structural framework of collagen, not to mention promote water retention within the joint structure, and increase joint flexibility and resistance to compression forces.*

OPTI-MSM (METHYLSULFONMETHANE) (500mg)
MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) is made up of 34% sulfur—the fourth most abundant mineral in the human body. Sulfur is an important nutrient for the maintenance of healthy joints, tendons, ligaments and other connective tissue.

MSM supports overall joint health and normal range of motion.
MSM plays a role in maintaining the cushion between joints to support mobility and protect healthy cartilage.

MSM may improve joint stress recovery time and prevent chronic joint issues.*

In studies, OptiMSM has been shown to encourage a significant reduction in pain and deterioration of cartilage matrix in joints. Also revealed was the ability of OptiMSM to improve mobility and modify the immune response.

GELATIN (442mg)

Gelatin is a protein that contains collagen, which is one of the materials that make up cartilage and bone. It is thought that gelatin might help arthritis and other joint conditions.

MERIVA CURCUMIN PHYTOSOME

Curcumin, the active component of turmeric, has an established history of supporting joint health, a healthy inflammatory response and potent antioxidant activity, but its health benefits are limited by its poor absorption from the gut.

Meriva is a unique tumeric phosphatidylcholine complex (phytosome) that is significantly better absorbed than regular turmeric extracts. Meriva enhances oral absorption by over 20-fold, thus helping to maximize the beneficial impact of turmeric on the body's inflammatory response.

MERIVA is supported by 22 clinical trials demonstrating effectiveness for joint health, and healthy inflammatory response after exercise and similar exertion.

Three studies conducted with MERIVA on subjects demonstrated significant improvements related to stiffness, muscle soreness, physical function and overall quality of life.
In a recent eight-month human trial, Meriva was shown to support a healthy inflammatory response. Individuals also experienced improvements in clinical and biochemical end-points associated with joint health.

KOLLAGEN II-XS COLLAGEN TYPE II (200mg)

Type II collagen (CII) is a peptide and component of joint cartilage. Its oral ingestion appears to reduce autoimmunity to the body's own CII, resulting in less inflammation in instances of osteoarthritis and rheumatism and benefits to joint health.

Kollagen II-xs uses an exclusive water extraction technology process to extract denatured Chicken Collagen Type II Powder without using solvent (ethanol) or harsh chemicals. This process reserves important nutrients and molecules for optimum assimilation to help damaged cartilage.

Necessary amino acids and mucopolysaccarides found in kollagen II-xs are the perfect supplement blend of chondroitin, hyaluronic acid and collagen type II protein. This unique combination of natural nutrients has been scientifically proven effective for joint health and flexibility.

A recent study showed that kollaGen II-xs supplementation appears to benefit joint inflammation, secondary mobility (76% improvement) and other tertiary effects (62% improvement). KollaGen II-xs also significantly reduced pain (reduced 88%) and led to a normalizing of Saliva pH levels which is often indicative of a reduction in inflammation.

APRESFLEX (BOSWELLIA SERRATA EXTRACT) (100mg)

Boswellia serrata extract is a phytopharmaceutical which appears to be quite anti-inflammatory and be helpful against osteoarthritis. It also appears to have preliminary evidence for anti-inflammatory joint disorders.

AprèsFLEX is a new, patent-pending dietary ingredient targeting mediators of comfort and flexibility. These include 5-lipoxygenase, 5-lox activating protein (FLAP), TNF-α and other important mechanisms. By supporting normal, healthy levels of these mediators, AprèsFLEX promotes healthy joints and connective tissues.

AprèsFLEX also more effectively inhibits MMP-3 activity, helping protect against collagen degradation, an important component of connective tissues.

Tests show that compared to AKBA (Acetyl-11-keto-ß-boswellic acid) alone, AprèsFLEX promotes faster absorption, quicker therapeutic benefit, and the elimination pattern shows longer blood levels suggesting a longer lasting activity.

In a recent clinical study, AprèsFLEX supplementation demonstrated significant improvements in joint comfort, function and mobility. Several objective blood markers of systemic activity were significantly improved as well.

HYALURONIC ACID (100mg)

Hyaluronic Acid also known as hyaluronan or hyaluronate is a mucopolysaccharide occurring naturally throughout the body.

This incredibly versatile molecule binds to water giving it an almost "jello" like viscosity and plays a key role in cushioning and lubricating areas such as tendons, joints and muscles.

Hyaluronic acid is an important component of articular cartilage, where it is present as a coat around each cell. When aggrecan monomers bind to hyaluronan in the presence of HAPLN1 (Hyaluronanic acid and proteoglycan link protein 1), large, highly negatively charged aggregates form. These aggregates imbibe water and are responsible for the resilience of cartilage (its resistance to compression).

A common forgotten aspect of Hyaluronic acid is its powerful antioxidant properties and its ability to protect against free-radical damage to cells. It has been used by many for skin treatments, osteoarthritis, wound healing, eye injuries, and as a potent antioxidant.

A recent meta-analysis (Modawal et al., 2016) of the effectiveness of intra-articular hyaluronic acid for knee osteoarthritis that included 22 published and unpublished, single or double-blinded, randomized controlled trials in humans showed that hyaluronic acid has a therapeutic effect on joint pain relief when compared with placebo over the course of 5-12 weeks.

BIOPERINE (BLACK PEPPER EXTRACT) (5mg)

BioPerine is a patented extract of the fruit of black pepper that contains standardized amounts of the active ingredient piperine.

Numerous clinical studies suggest that when a 5-mg dose of BioPerine is taken with other supplements, it may increase the absorption of those supplements.

BORON (3mg)
Boron is a mineral used by the body to build bones, improve the absorption of calcium, and for building and repairing joint cartilage.

Boron may assist in preventing arthritis and is essential for optimal joint function.

Boron deficiencies can lead to arthritis, degenerative joint disease, muscle pain, and weak joint cartilage
In a study conducted by the US Department of Agriculture, boron was found to reduce the excretion of calcium by 44% in postmenopausal women who were given 3 mg of the nutrient per day. The results of the study showed that besides preventing calcium loss, boron also activated estrogen and vitamin D which slows the demineralization of the bone and protects against osteoporosis and arthritis.
