Formulated By: Dr. Hengameh Allen
Price: $64.99 (USA Only)

Arthritis is a source of discomfort and pain in many people. There are different forms of this disease with different symptoms and prognosis. However, osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis. Osteoarthritis affects 70-80% of the population over the age 50. The most common symptoms are the presence of morning stiffness, popping joints and it is associated with varying degrees of pain and discomfort. Osteoarthritis is commonly treated by Non-Steroidal Anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID). Drugs like any other chemicals usually have unpleasant side effects. The NSAIDs inhibit a particular prostaglandin (PGE2) that is associated with induction of pain. However, the inhibition of PGE2 in certain susceptible individuals will result in increased stomach acid production and ultimately formation of a stomach ulcer.
It contains adequate amounts of the beneficial nutrients that work as co-enzymes. It contains:
• Glucosamine which, is a compound synthesized by the chondrocytes and its production is impaired in osteoarthritis.
• Chondroitin sulfate which, is an important component of cartilage matrix.
• Nettle leaf which, is an herb that has anti-Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (TNF-?) properties. Tumor necrosis factor alpha is an inflammatory cytokine and is thought to be partly responsible for the inflammation in the joints.
• Ginger, a natural compound that has important anti-oxidant properties.
• Borage Seed Oil contains large amounts of GLA (Gamma-Linolenic Acid) which, also has anti-inflammatory properties
