Order Healthy Joints

We have formulated this new product Healthy Joints, to be the most effective Glucosamine-Chondroitin product on the New Zealand market. containing 50/50 of the highest quality marine Glucosamine and shark cartilage Chondroitin to keep your healthy joints healthy, and assist in the production and regeneration of joint cartilage as you age.

Plus chelated Boron and organic Silca and natural Vitamin D for long term effectiveness.

Glucosamine has been a popular product on the New Zealand market for years for treating arthritis.

However many CAA users have told us that CAA works better for them than Glucosamine, especially long term, so we have not offered this kind of product in the past. Double blind trials have also indicated that Glucosamine alone has limited benefits.

Equal amounts of
Glucosamine and Chondroitin necessary to be effective

However, recent research has shown that when Glucosamine is combined in equal parts, with Chondroitin extracted from shark cartilage, it is much more effective. Especially when over 1000 mg a day of both is taken.

Due to the very high price of Chondroitin derived from shark cartilage (ten times the price of Glucosamine), it is rare to find a product on the New Zealand market with enough Chondroitin to be fully effective.

As far as we can see, all the other formulations available in New Zealand except one, have only small amounts of Chondroitin, ranging from none, to only 25%.

What is Glucosamine?

The Glucosamine we use in Healthy Joints is a natural substance, derived from shellfish, and is found in and around the cells of your joint cartilage and connective tissue.

Glucosamine is believed to reduce cartilage wear, and help improve lubrication and nutrition to your joints.

What is Chondroitin?

Our high quality Chondroitin is extracted from shark cartilage, which is why it costs so much. (A cheaper but less effective form can be obtained from cow, pig or chicken cartilage).

Chondroitin is also found naturally in healthy human cartilage. It helps the cartilage of your joints to retain water, elasticity and to resist compression. And also aids in the lubrication and nutrition of the joint.

       Healthy Joints contains genuine,
           top quality Chondroitin from shark cartilage.

It is also a major source of the protein building-blocks used in your joints, so it helps form new cartilage. As we age these building blocks become in short supply, yet they are important for the elasticity, resilience and shock-absorbing properties of your cartilage.

Chondroitin is known to inhibit enzymes that break down cartilage and cause inflammation and stiffness.

How does Boron and Silica help?

Chelated Boron helps your bones absorb the two most important bone minerals, calcium and magnesium from your food.

Organic Silica helps maintain the health, flexibility and youthfulness of your joints, and is also excellent for your skin and hair.

How does Vitamin D help?

Vitamin D also assists your body absorb calcium and other bone minerals.

It also helps protect against cancers and heart attacks, strengthens your immune system so that it does not attack your joints, and relaxes you so that your sleep is deep and healing.

Testimonials

 •  “I had problems with my knees when I bent down, I struggled to come up straight again and it was very sore. After I started using Healthy Joints I stopped having this problem. I also find that many of my joint pains are gone.” Mike, Wanganui

 •  “Recently I started taking your new Healthy Joints capsules. Today I received the enclosed medical data and could not resist sending to you. (Her condition has improved so much that a scheduled operation is not now necessary.) I’m not having the operation. I was convinced your capsules were the best available. I am almost 91. I have no cartilage in my right knee, but no pain.”  Annie, Hastings.

Adults Take 1 capsule 3 times a day (1300 mg of glucosamine and chondroitin). When joint pain or inflammation has gone, this can be reduced to 2 capsules a day.

Healthy Joints should work for pets too

In veterinary medicine, 50/50 glucosamine and chondroitin are
 successfully used in the treatment of degenerative joint problems
 in older dogs, cats and horses.

We suggest 1 capsule a day per 10 kgs of pet body weight. After
 six weeks, if symptoms disappear, this dose can be reduced to half.
