The key to joint health is relieving discomfort and rebuilding cartilage. I recommend the following nutrients for supporting joint health.

Nutrients

Aboriginal herbs for health

Use these herbs twice daily to help remove the toxins that are often associated with joint discomfort:

  • Lemon myrtle leaf (40 mg): helps clean joints naturally of harmful toxins.
  • Aniseed myrtle leaf (30 mg): Contains complex antipathogenic compounds that counteract the buildup of toxins in joints, and possesses natural anesthetizing properties.
  • Mountain pepper leaf (10 mg): Helps to promote joint flexibility.
  • Wild rosella calyce (50 mg): Promotes joint comfort.

Extra relief

To help comfort your joints, I recommend combining the herbs above with these more common herbs twice daily:

  • Yucca leaf extract (25 mg): helps support joint flexibility.
  • White willow bark extract (25 mg): contains salicin, which enhances the body's natural defenses against discomfort.
  • Feverfew flower extract (15 mg): helps maintain flexibility.
  • Devil's claw root extract (31 mg): promotes joint comfort.
  • Celery seed extract (8 mg): helps diminish free radical damage to joints.
  • Boswellia oleo-gum-resin extract (75 mg): promotes flexibility.
  • Niacinamide-B3 (250 mg): boosts joint circulation, enhances cartilage repair, maintains joint flexibility.
  • Capsaicin (cayenne pepper): has been used in foods and herbal medicine since ancient times. Recently, scientific studies have found that topical creams containing capsaicin promotes joint comfort and flexibility.

Care for your cartilage To rebuild cartilage, use 50 milligrams of organically processed bovine cartilage twice a day. Bovine cartilage is one of the best sources for a complete mix of essential sulfates that help build healthy cartilage and enhance joint repair.

I also suggest you use bromelain (150 mg twice a day) and papain extract (4 mg twice daily). These enzymes improve digestion and absorption of sulfates. In addition, bromelain by itself provides a healthy inflammatory response.
