PEGASUS POST Tuesday [Edition <strong>July</strong> <strong>19</strong> datE] <strong>2016</strong> 151 FOCUS ON HEALTH Do Your JOINTS Ever Hurt? Our bOdy has a padding called cartilage, a protective spongy coating, between all moving bone surfaces. Cartilage allows the joints to move freely. Cartilage however is easily worn away or damaged with activity but is normally being constantly rebuilt. If the replacement and repair of cartilage slows down the moving bone surfaces become closer and may start scraping together. This can eventually cause joint inflammation, pain and reduced mobility. If it continues the bone surfaces become rough and symptoms worsen. This process is called wear and tear arthritis or osteoarthritis. researchers have found certain nutrients may stimulate the body to produce more cartilage and also support the healing of connective tissue, ligaments, bone and muscle. GO-Healthy New Zealand has developed a highly effective combination of nutrients to support all areas of joint health. The formula called Go GLuCOSAMINE 1-A-day provides well researched nutrients like glucosamine, chondroitin, proline, manganese and vitamin d3 to support the formation of cartilage, connective tissue, ligaments, bone and muscle. It is known when the joints are inflamed they can be very painful and this inflammation may also slow the formation of new cartilage. For this reason GO-GLuCOSAMINE 1-A-day also contains an effective blend of ginger, turmeric and celery to help reduce joint inflammation and pain. Inflammation may be further reduced by also taking a therapeutic amount of high purity fish oil or krill oil.

We are Always Happy to Help! Are You Magnesium Deficient? MINErALS ArE the building blocks of good health. Some minerals are only needed in trace amounts where others like magnesium are needed in much larger amounts and on a regular basis to prevent deficiency and maintain optimum health. A large number of us do not obtain sufficient magnesium from our diet and may notice some of the common signs of deficiency. Some of the more common symptoms that may be caused by insufficient magnesium are: leg and muscle cramps, twitches, muscle pain, muscle fatigue and weakness, tremors of hands, blurred vision, restlessness, poor sleep, raised and/or unstable blood pressure, poor circulation, irregular heartbeat, shortness of breath, swallowing problems, dizziness, headaches, anxiety, agitation, irritability, seizures, poor concentration and many more. Although many young people now show signs of magnesium deficiency symptoms generally worsen as we age due to our digestive system being less efficient. Taking a magnesium supplement of sufficient strength may be a sensible option to top up our vital magnesium levels. Not all magnesium supplements however are well absorbed by everyone. Luckily a new marine sourced magnesium has been found that offers good levels of absorbable magnesium as well as many trace nutrients that are low in the diet but essential for good health.
