| As people age, systemic inflammation can inflict degenerative effects throughout the body. A primary cause of this destructive cascade is the production of cell-signaling chemicals known as inflammatory cytokines. Along with these dangerous cytokines, imbalances of hormone-like messengers called prostaglandins and leukotrienes also contribute to inflammatory processes. People who suffer from joint discomfort often take pain relief products. Regrettably, those can pose health risks and accelerate cartilage loss in the joints. And while glucosamine and methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) supplements can safely improve joint structure and functionality, it may take weeks or even months for their effects to be fully felt. Scientists have identified several innovative compounds that work to provide safe, effective, fast-acting support for aging joints. These novel compounds are combined in Fast-Acting Joint Formula, a one-a-day formulation designed to promote joint comfort and ease of motion in days, rather than weeks or months. One capsule a day supplies: - 300 mg of solubilized keratin, a bioactive form of keratin protein that supplies cysteine and other high-sulfur precursors needed to quickly rebuild vital joint tissue. Solubilized keratin helps regulate prostaglandin E2 associated with joint degradation, while increasing activity of antioxidants like superoxide dismutase and glutathione that shield joints from free-radical assault.
- 200 mg of Decursinol-50™, a fast-acting fluid-regulating compound derived from the herb Korean Angelica (Angelica gigas Nakai). Decursinol-50™ goes to work immediately, helping to maintain the normal healthy function of DNA transcription factors and inhibiting inflammatory factors.
- 40 mg of Hyal-Joint™, a unique, patented form of hyaluronic acid that increases viscosity of the synovial fluid that cushions joint cartilage. Like premium motor oil for a car engine, Hyal-Joint™ protects against joint wear and tear, supplying a patented blend of hyaluronic acid, collagen and other glycosaminoglycans to lubricate joints and help rebuild joint tissue.
Designed to help maintain the healthy function of the articular cartilage, the sturdy yet elastic tissue that covers the ends of bones in joints to facilitate smooth movement.
