Joint Health
Nutrilite
Overview
This product contains Glucosamine and Boswellia extract, which have some research supporting their role in joint health. The inclusion of a proprietary blend and other ingredients with limited evidence diminishes the overall effectiveness. The use of standard Glucosamine Sulfate and 5-Loxin brands suggests higher quality, although the lack of transparency regarding other ingredients is a major concern.
The Good
Contains Glucosamine sulfate that may help with joint stiffness.
Includes 5-Loxin extract, a standardized form of Boswellia, which may help with joint inflammation.
Vitamin C is included, which is a general antioxidant and important for joint health.
The Bad
Proprietary blend makes it difficult to assess the dose of individual ingredients.
Potential gastrointestinal side effects from Glucosamine and Boswellia extract.
Limited evidence for long-term efficacy of glucosamine and chondroitin combination.
Is it for you?
Best For: Individuals seeking joint support, active adults, aging individuals
Skip If: You have shellfish allergies (if glucosamine is present), are pregnant or nursing without consulting a doctor.
