Inflammatory conditions debilitate millions of adults, resulting in restricted mobility and reduced strength. Inflamed joints can lead to extensive damage to surrounding connective tissues, which causes the hands, feet, and arms to become painful, swollen and stiff.
While conventional methods can produce side effects, Arthro-Immune Joint Support from Life Extension® combines two clinically proven plant extracts into one powerful formula to help those suffering from inflammation.
Andrographis paniculata has received acclaim for its beneficial effect on inflammation.1 A Chilean study involved 60 adults who took either 150 mg andrographis extracta day or a placebo. Those taking the extract showed dramatic improvement of several outcomes, including fewer numbers of tender and/or swollen joints. For joints that remained tender and/or swollen, the intensity was lessened.2
Curcumin is a compound that is universally recognized for its impressive antioxidant and fluid-regulating properties. In an as-yet-unpublished double-blind clinical trial, a form of curcumin with enhanced absorption was shown to have a beneficial effect on inflammation.3
Life Extension’s Arthro-Immune Joint Support contains PARACTIN® Andrographis extract, which has been used in clinical, animal and in vitro studies that have demonstrated its efficacy in combating inflammation. It also contains BCM-95® Bio-Curcumin®, which is considered the gold standard curcumin, with bioavailability far superior to that of most curcumin extracts.
Life Extension’s Arthro-Immune Joint Support provides scientifically validated plant extracts that have been shown to have significant salutary effects on tender or swollen joints.
