Product: New Joint Juice® Easy Shot™ with Hyal-Joint
November 2011Each of us has individual needs, especially when it comes to joint health. What works for some may not work for others. That's where Joint Juice® Easy Shot™ Hyal-Joint® comes into play. Combining glucosamine with a special high potency form of hyaluronic acid, Joint Juice® Easy Shot™ Hyal-Joint® version is another great option for your joints. It's the perfect complement to the other components of the Joint Juice® Easy Shot™ Hyal-Joint® product: Glucosamine, Vitamin C and Vitamin D. All of these ingredients have known benefits for joint health, so it's great to have them all in one easy to consume product.
Why hyaluronic acid (HA)?
As we age and lose joint health, it's not only the bone and cartilage that becomes affected in a joint. The specialized fluid-called synovial fluid, thins out and contains less hyaluronic acid. Healthy synovial fluid is very important because it helps provide lubrication and ease of movement in the joint, along with shock absorption. Hyaluronic acid is also a key component to healthy skin and many other tissues in the body. You're probably seen it in various beauty products as well, such as in topical creams, or as an injectable product in the Dermatologist's office. In healthcare, HA got its start in joint health as a prescription, injectable treatment for people with osteoarthritis of the knee. They can provide very long-lasting relief after a series of 3 to 5, weekly injections. Injecting HA directly into the joints, however, can be somewhat painful, inconvenient and costly. That's why the ability to have an oral form of HA is a breakthrough.
The Hyal-Joint® form of oral hyaluronic acid is superior to other forms in that it has a unique (patent pending) and specialized combination of collagens and other constituents of healthy joints (proteoglycans). Hyal-Joint® oral hyaluronic acid has been shown to stimulate special cells present on the inside of the joint capsule (synovial cells) to produce more hyaluronic acid. In addition, Hyal-Joint® has been evaluated in a growing number of human, clinical studies. It's been shown to improve joint comfort, function, and even allowed its users to experience a greater quality of life.
The new Joint Juice® Easy Shot™ with Hyal-Joint® is available at select Costco clubs and on our website at http://jointjuice.com/jointjuice-easyshot.jsp
