Taking 3 capsules a day of ArthroAid Plus gives you the following premium ingredients
supported by the exclusive research and science relating to joint care and rehabilitation.
Glucosamine Sulfate (1500mgs.) -(GS) is an amino sugar and a main biological chemical that
helps build all the major cushioning ingredients of the synovial fluids and surrounding tissues in
joints. Scientific research shows that (GS) helps produce glycosaminoglycans. Simply put,
glycosaminoglycans are like the mortar that holds collagen fibers of the cartilage structure together.
In addition, (GS) is required for the synthesis of hyaluronic acid by the synovial membrane of the
joint. (HA) increases the viscosity of the synovial fluid and serves to reduce the wear and tear stress
on the articular cartilage and related joint structures. Therefore the combination of the natural (GS)
and (HA) and Collagen in ArthroAid Plus presents a powerful set of building blocks for healthy joints.
CM Complex with Cetylmyristoleate (624mgs.) -Discovered by a research scientist at the
National Institute of Health, cetylmyristoleate is one of the unique fatty acid esters found naturally in
our CM Complex. Multiple human clinical trials have shown that this CM Complex of unique fatty acid
esters has helped relieve joint pain and increase mobility while causing no side effects compared to
a placebo group. In the most recent study published in the 2005 Journal; Food Science and Nutrition
(vol.1 O; pgs. 285-289) a double-blind, placebo-controlled human clinical trial of arthritic patients
showed a 70% and 53.8% improvement in arthritic symptoms after a 3 month trial period.
Collagen Hydrolysate (360mgs.) -Collagen is the main protein found in articular cartilage.
Hydrolyzed Collagen is a unique protein, containing high amounts of important amino acids for joint
health. This unique form of collagen has gone through extensive manufacturing research and
development to provide a very low molecular weight ingredient which provides easier absorption.
Collagen is a main building block in healthy cartilage.
Chondroitin Sulfate (200mgs.) -Articular cartilage has no blood supply so all of it's nutrients and
lubrication come from the liqiud that flows in and out of the cartilage. Chondroitin Sulfates act like
"liquid magnets", without this fluid cartilage would become malnourished, drier and more brittle. (CS)
helps provide a synergistic matrix of joint building ingredients.
MSM (150mgs.) - This is a natural form of organic sulfur that is found in all living organisms.
Unfortunately, we lose much of this important nutrient when we process our foods. It is imperative
that our bodies have enough dietary sulfur to assist in the synthesis of collagen and other important
cell structures.
White Willow Bark Extract (100mgs.) - The white willow bark has been used for centuries as a
natural pain reliever. The salicylic acid in white willow bark lowers the levels of prostaglandins,
hormone like compounds that can cause aches, pain, and inflammation. Because the body
metabolizes the salicylic acid differently than aspirin it doesn't cause stomach bleeding or other
detrimental side effects.
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) (1 0mgs.) -Synovial fluid is made up of molecules of Hyaluronic Acid (HA)
that enable cartilage to glide smoothly. Published clinical studies have confirmed that (HA), is safe
and effective in relieving pain and stiffness in joints and encourages overall joint health in adults.
(HA) is an important component of healthy articular cartilage.
