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 />
