If you suffer from arthritis, you know that knee and hip pain is miserable.
The cause of the pain is inflammation. And the root cause of that inflammation, in osteoarthritis, is a deterioration in cartilage.
JointShield addresses both these issues.
JointShield first helps bring you short-term relief by reducing inflammation. Then helps support the growth of cartilage to bring long-term improvement in the flexibility, suppleness and mobility of your knees and hips.
The Triple Action formula is suitable for everyone – vegan and gluten-free.
Step 1: Curcumin has powerful anti-inflammatory properties that help address the root cause of the discomfort and starts to bring relief. Lecithin and piperine have been added to increase the bio-availability of curcumin.
Step 2: Boswellia has been used for centuries for arthritis and other inflammatory conditions, as it inhibits a pro-inflammatory enzyme called 5-lipoxygenase. Arthritis sufferers have found it can bring relief from swelling and stiffness in as little as 7 days.
Step 3: Glucosamine is a vital component of cartilage, but needs to be combined with vitamins K (ideally K1 and K2) and D in order to support cartilage regeneration. We use vegetarian-source glucosamine hydrochloride.
Extra vitamin D helps calcium absorption for stronger bones.
Unlike drugs, Uni-Vite JointShield supports the process of long-term improvement in the basic structure and function of cartilage, and the joints as a whole.
IMPORTANT
The body naturally uses glucosamine to produce cartilage to cushion the joints and synovial fluid to lubricate them, BUT glucosamine on its own is largely ineffective, as it needs vitamins D and K to initiate the rebuilding of bone and cartilage.

Unlike some drugs, the only side-effect of the nutrients in this supplement is better health generally.
Why we DON’T include chondroitin or MSM
The differences between glucosamine and chondroitin are very minor. Both are naturally occurring substances in bone cartilage and both help slow the destruction of joint cartilage and improve mobility. Glucosamine – providing it is in the presence of vitamins D and K – is enough.
MSM or Methylsulfonylmethane is an organic sulphur and its main function is as an anti-inflammatory – but we believe the curcumin and other anti-inflammatories in JointShield are more effective.
Add Omega 3 from fish oil for further anti-inflammatory action
