Overview
Use this article as a practical way to think through your next wellness step. The goal is not a complicated routine; it is a clearer one you can return to consistently.
"Arthritis is the number-one disability in the United States. Yet, there's no medical cure and none in sight."(1)
"Approximately two out of three people age thirty-five and older have osteoarthritis." (2)
"Osteoarthritis is a much bigger problem than rheumatoid arthritis by thirty to fifty times. Put another way: One out of five people have osteoarthritis, one out of one hundred has rheumatoid arthritis." (3)
"Glucosamine (acquired by the body from food) is an important component without which our bodies cannot live." (4)
"Getting enough glucosamine from foods in the diet is not practical." (5)
"The best way of getting glucosamine is through dietary supplementation. (6)
"The advantage of taking glucosamine as a dietary supplement is that it can be grabbed by chondrocytes and used to build more cartilage." (7)
"In fact, glucosamine is the first-line drug of choice for treating osteoarthritis in several European countries. The research is solid and convincing." (8)
"No adverse side effects have been reported...."(9)
I have started my article with quotes from a book written by my friend, Dr. Luke Bucci, Ph.D. Dr. Bucci wrote "Healing Arthritis The Natural Way to help explain how certain nutrients can help people avoid joint pain and/or osteoarthritis. I met Dr. Bucci in 1996 in Salt Lake City when I participated in a nationally-televised 700 Club TV documentary that introduced the value of including the use of a dietary supplement, glucosamine, as a possible solution for joint pain symptoms.
In 1996, G HCl was not available in drug stores or health food stores. Now, after many years of success of helping thousands of joint pain sufferers lower the symptoms of osteoarthritis, it is available everywhere. In 1996, only vets were using it as they would put it in the feed for horses who were having joint problems. I would like to share my successful experience of using glucosamine, tell you what it is, how it works, and why you should consider using it for your joint pain problems and to prevent future problems.
Personally, I began using GHCl as a retail customer in 1996 because I had a severe problem in the big knuckle of my right hand. I could hardly bend my knuckle and I couldn't swing a golf club without pain. I began using GHCl seriously since there are no known side effects.
I began using 3 capsules (500 mg per cap) 3 times a day. For the first 2 weeks, I didn't notice anything, and I almost gave up using it. I figured that it was not going to help me. Most of us want instant results but, unfortunately, sometimes it takes several weeks to notice the value of using GHCl.
In my third week of using GHCl, I still had some pain, but I noticed that I had more flexibility in my knuckle. After a month, the pain was gone completely! After I knew that glucosamine worked, I introduced my Joint Decision™ product (G HCl) to customers at www.lifepriority.com.
Since 1996, Joint Decision™, has helped thousands of people lower or eliminate joint pain symptoms. My customers have told me that they are able to work without pain, play with grand-kids and live a more pain-free life because Joint Decision™ has helped them deal with joint pain without using medication.
Joint Decision (G HCl) is made by our body from the food that we eat but, in many cases, the food supply does not keep up with the demands on the cartilage to cushion the bones. Without adequate glucosamine from the diet, cartilage becomes thinner and inflammation begins. Without proper cushioning from healthy cartilage, bones can begin to rub together which is basically osteoarthritis.
Total Joint Complex™ ultimate joint support with glucosamine hcl and 6 essential co-factors: Glucosamine HCl, Chondroitin Sulfate, MSM, Boswellia Serrata, Bromelain, Curcumin Complex with Turmeric. This specific combination of nutrients has been prescribed by hundreds of chiropractors and health care professionals and shows encouraging evidence that they can provide support in the treatment osteoarthritis symptoms.
Glucosamine supplements are manufactured in a laboratory from chitin, a substance found in the shells of shrimp, crab, lobster. It is a dietary supplement and is not a pharmaceutical drug. It is illegal in the US to market any dietary supplement as a treatment for any disease or condition Of the available forms of glucosamine, I suggest that people use the glucosamine hydrochloride (GHCl) form since it is the more active form and does not contain salt. I do not support the use of chondroitin sulfate unless the use of GHCl does not lower the symptoms.
Useful reset points
Notice
Start with the pattern you can actually see
Energy, sleep, digestion, mood, movement, and recovery all leave clues. Paying attention to the pattern makes the next step more useful.
Simplify
A smaller routine is easier to keep
Choose one or two habits that fit your real week. Food quality, hydration, movement, sleep, and stress recovery usually matter before complexity.
Support
Match supplements to a specific priority
A focused supplement routine works best when it supports a clear goal and sits alongside the basics you already repeat.
Although our joints need a long list of nutrients If you, or anyone that you know, has joint inflammation or if you want to prevent inflammation, please consider using Joint Decision™ or Total Joint Complex™ from Life Priority, Inc. There is a difference in the quality of GHCl. Life Priority purchases the raw ingredient that is used in our Joint Decision™ product so we know that it is a pharmaceutical grade.
Do not continue to suffer with joint pain and use drugs for pain the rest of your life. Perhaps Joint Decision™ or Total Joint Complex™ is all that you need to eliminate the symptoms!
Let your joints decide and use Joint Decision™! To order Joint Decision™ online, go to www.lifepriority.com
