Joint Support Advanced
 

A formulation to help promote healthy joints

Key Benefits:

Joint Support Advanced helps maintain healthy joint function. It also contains Selenium and Manganese, both of which are essential minerals.
 

Why You Need It:

Joint Support Advanced has been specially formulated to provide nutritional support for active people to help maintain healthy joints and for the temporary relief of joint pain. Due to declining amounts of selenium found naturally in soil, it

is important to supplement your diet. Selenium acts as a powerful antioxidant whilst Manganese is good for bone health and acts as a co-factor in several metabolic and enzymatic reactions.
 

Key Ingredients:

• Glucosamine hydrochloride - is clinically proven to support healthy joint function and comfort, and supports healthy ageing. Unlike pharmaceutical medicines that simply manage the symptoms, Glucosamine helps to delay the progression of osteoarthritis.

• Scutellaria baicalensis (root) - a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) herb, added for its antioxidant and healthy-ageing benefits.

• Selenium - an essential mineral vital for normal function of the immune system and thyroid gland.

• Manganese - a mineral that is good for bone and cartilage health and acts as a co-factor in several metabolic and enzymatic reactions.

• Copper - the third most abundant trace mineral in the body, but it is often deficient in a person’s diet because food sources high in this mineral are not always eaten frequently (such as oysters and liver).

• Copper works together with iron to make red blood cells and it is the major component of the outer coating of nerve fibres and collagen. Copper is used by the body to manufacture numerous enzymes, many of which work as antioxidants.

• Fourteen million Australians are overweight or obese.
• More than five million Australians are obese 
• If weight gain continues at current levels, by 2025, close to 80% of all Australian adults and a third of all children will be overweight or obese. 
• Obesity has overtaken smoking as the leading cause of premature death and illness in Australia. 
• Obesity has become the single biggest threat to public health in Australia.
• On the basis of present trends we can predict that by the time they reach the age of 20 our kids will have a shorter life expectancy than earlier generations simply because of obesity.

• More than 900,000 Australians suffer from diabetes. 
• Australians reporting heart, stroke and vascular diseases aged 15 years and over were much more likely to be classified as overweight or obese than those without heart stroke and vascular disease (65% compared with 51%).
• Health disorders in children like type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, asthma, hypertension and sleep apnea can be directly attributed to childhood obesity.
• Cardiovascular disease (CVD), diabetes and chronic kidney disease (CKD) account for approximately quarter of the burden of disease in Australia, and just under two-thirds of all deaths. These three diseases often occur together and share risk factors, such as physical inactivity, overweight and obesity and high blood pressure.
