JointEssence
Pure Essence
Overview
JointEssence contains several well-researched ingredients for joint health, including Natural Eggshell Membrane (NEM), Boswellia Serrata Extract, and Boron Glycinate, which are dosed at or near clinically studied levels. NEM at 500mg daily has shown significant reductions in joint pain and stiffness, with detectable improvements within 7 days. Boswellia Serrata at 100mg, especially the ApresFLEX patented extract, can contribute to anti-inflammatory effects, though optimal doses often range from 300mg to 1g. Boron Glycinate at 8mg is within the effective range for bone health and anti-inflammatory properties. The inclusion of traditional Chinese medicine herbs like Fo-Ti, Cordyceps, Dong Quai, Red Sage, and White Peony extracts at 50-200mg provides additional potential benefits, but their direct efficacy for joint health within this specific formulation is less substantiated by high-quality clinical evidence for the specified dosages.
The Good
Clinically effective dose of Natural Eggshell Membrane (NEM) for rapid joint pain relief.
Includes patented Boswellia Serrata (ApresFLEX) which is known for its anti-inflammatory properties.
Contains Boron Glycinate at a dose supporting bone health and mild anti-inflammatory effects.
The Bad
Fo-Ti Extract has documented concerns regarding hepatotoxicity, especially with prolonged use.
Dong Quai Extract possesses estrogenic activity, posing risks for individuals with hormone-sensitive conditions or those on hormonal medications, and may cause photosensitivity.
Dosages for several traditional Chinese medicine herbs (Cordyceps, Red Sage, White Peony) might be below optimal or lack specific research for direct joint health benefits in this context.
