Nutramax Labs Avoca ASU - is a vegetarian/shellfish-free
joint health supplement that contains non-shellfish glucosamine, NMX1000
avocado/soybean unsaponifiables (ASU), and methylsulfonylmethane (MSM).
Avoca ASU also contains decaffeinated green tea for antioxidant health
benefits. All ingredients are from non-animal origin.
Nutramax Labs Avoca ASU Contains:
ASU (Avocado/Soybean Unsaponifiables): Reduces the
expression of inflammatory markers that are associated with joint
discomfort and the process of cartilage breakdown in the joints.
Glucosamine ((Glu-kos?-ameen): A "building block" molecule naturally produced by the body for the
production of a variety of structures essential to joint health.
MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane): Provides sulfur that is used for the structural integrity of joint
cartilage.
What role do the glucosamine and ASU in Avoca ASU play? - The glucosamine in Avoca ASU enhances the production of cartilage matrix
components that keep cartilage cells healthy and functioning properly.
ASU stands for avocado/soybean unsaponifiables, derived from avocados
and soybeans and used for joint health. Studies using cartilage cells
have shown that ASU lowers the expression of several compounds involved
in the process of cartilage breakdown in the joints. ASU complements the
positive effects of the glucosamine in Avoca ASU. A greater than
additive effect, known as a “synergistic” effect, on cartilage cells was
seen using ASU and glucosamine together. Avoca ASU also contains
decaffeinated green tea for antioxidant health benefit effects.*
What is OptiMSM, and why is it included in the formula? - OptiMSM is the pure and patented form of MSM (methylsulfonylmethane),
that provides sulfur which is used for the structural integrity of joint
cartilage.
How do I take Avoca ASU? - Following the schedule on the label, we recommend three tablets daily
for the initial administration period of 4-8 weeks. Some individuals may
respond sooner than others depending on the status of their cartilage
and joint health. Once response has been seen, the number of tablets per
day may be decreased to maintain comfort level. Some individuals on this
lower level may wish to go back to three tablets a day during the
weekends or times of increased activity.
What should I look for when taking Avoca ASU? - Avoca ASU is a supplement providing key components to maintain your
joint health; therefore, it works gradually. You should observe gradual
changes in your comfort level. Give yourself time to respond. Look for
subtle changes initially, such as an easier time going up and down
stairs or getting out of a chair or bathtub and more comfort in daily
activities, such as walking or any activity using your hands, knees,
hips or back.
Are there any safety concerns with Avoca ASU? - There are no known contraindications or known interactions between Avoca
ASU and any drug or nutritional supplement. If you have any condition or
allergy that requires medical attention, you should always consult your
physician before taking any drug or dietary supplement.
What is a joint health supplement? - A joint health supplement consists of ingredients that work in
combination to support and protect healthy joint cartilage. Nutramax
Laboratories, Inc. is an industry leader in research, development, and
manufacturing of high quality joint health supplements for you.
What is joint cartilage? - Cartilage is a slippery, cushion like tissue between your bones. Joints
are the junction between two or more bones. The ends of the bones are
covered with cartilage which serves as a smooth, resilient cushion that
allows the joint to move freely. Joints also have a synovial tissue
lining that encloses them and secretes a lubricating fluid. The
stability of the joint is supported by ligaments that connect bone to
bone; and tendons that connect the ends of muscles to bone. Cartilage in
the joint is produced and maintained by its own specialized cells. When
you do even the simplest of everyday activities, there is tremendous
pressure on your joints. The protective cartilage cushion and joint
fluid work together like a shock absorber to allow for proper joint
flexibility.
Why is cartilage important for joint health? - Cartilage serves as a protective layer between bones allowing them to
move freely without pain. With age and other factors, cartilage starts
to break down, resulting in stiffness and pain. The body cannot correct
this process by itself, but using joint health supplements can help. |
