Natural support for<br />
healthy joints<br />
Joint issues will affect most of us at some time.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y can appear in any joint, such as the neck, back,<br />
shoulders, elbows, wrists, hands, hips, knees, ankles<br />
and feet.<br />
Cartilage is the protective surface between<br />
moving bones that allows them to move freely. It<br />
is constantly worn away and needs to be rebuilt<br />
constantly. This repair process slows down for most<br />
of us as we age. <strong>The</strong> result is not enough cartilage<br />
in some joints causing the joint function to be less<br />
smooth. This is the most common form of arthritis,<br />
called osteoarthritis, and it leads to inflammation,<br />
pain, stiffness and reduced joint mobility.<br />
Joint pain can also be a factor in falls. Generally,<br />
joints with the most use or stress show problems<br />
first.<br />
Many people seek pain relief from their doctor.<br />
<strong>The</strong> usual prescription is non-steroidal antiinflammatory<br />
drugs, or NSAIDs, which offer pain<br />
relief but do nothing to stop the progression of<br />
arthritis.<br />
According to the British Journal of General<br />
Practice, NSAIDs are not recommended for longterm<br />
use and are responsible for 30% of hospital<br />
admissions, mainly due to internal bleeding, heart<br />
attack, stroke and renal damage. Research shows<br />
that all NSAIDs double the risk of hospitalization<br />
due to heart failure.<br />
Supporting the body with the proper<br />
supplementary nutrients is beneficial in helping<br />
joint health for many people.<br />
A local Christchurch company, Kiwi Natural<br />
Health or KNH, has produced an advanced, highpotency<br />
formula called “Joint Care Plus” to support<br />
healthy joint function.<br />
Inflammation of joints can cause pain and slows<br />
the healing process. Joint Care Plus contains<br />
turmeric, ginger and black pepper to help reduce<br />
inflammation and pain and enhance digestion and<br />
absorption of nutrients. <strong>The</strong> formula also contains<br />
nutrients that have been researched to support joint<br />
health, including boron, selenium, zinc, manganese,<br />
proline and MSM, and the highly researched<br />
glucosamine sulfate-potassium chloride complex, as<br />
well as chondroitin sulfate.<br />
This comprehensive formula is in an easy-toswallow<br />
capsule. Due to the number of nutrients in<br />
the formula, taking two or three capsules once daily<br />
is recommended to achieve the necessary amount<br />
of each nutrient. A loading dose of three capsules<br />
twice daily may be used in severe cases.<br />
