Getting older shouldn’t stop you living life to the full, but having stiff joints can sometimes hold you back.


The little things in life, like playing with the grandkids or a sunset stroll, can be the most enjoyable. But if your joints aren’t up for the task, these simple pleasures become a challenge. That’s why staying on top of joint wear and tear is so important.

WHY JOINTS BECOME 'RUSTY'
Healthy joints are made up of cartilage and other connective tissue, including ligaments and tendons.
Cartilage is the protective shock absorber between joints. It cushions joints and allows bones to slip freely over one another, providing the easy mobility we tend to take for granted. When joints become tired or stiff, it’s often due to cartilage breaking down.

WHAT JOINTS NEED
Glucosamine sulphate: Glucosamine and sulphur are major components of cartilage and tendons, and natural building blocks for healthy joints. While glucosamine can be manufactured in different forms, only glucosamine sulphate has been recommended in international clinical treatment guidelines.

Taken regularly, glucosamine sulphate may help manage the effects of wear and tear on joints.

Chondroitin: Naturally-occurring chondroitin acts as a sponge, drawing liquid and nutrients into the joint cartilage. Chondroitin works in conjunction with glucosamine to build new cartilage and support healthy joint function.
In supplement form, the combination of chondroitin and glucosamine sulphate may be more effective than taking glucosamine on its own.

CARTILAGE NEEDS NOURISHMENT
Cartilage breaks down as a result of both normal wear and tear and the body’s reduced ability to produce glucosamine sulphate and chondroitin – both essential building blocks for healthy joints, cartilage and tendons.

That’s why topping up your body’s own production of glucosamine and chondroitin is thought to help rebuild cartilage and support mobility. And that’s where a nutritional supplement like Nutra-Life Joint Care comes in.
