Joint Support Gummies for Joint Health and Support

We all strive to maintain healthy joint function and mobility as we age. Whether you are a professional athlete, weekend warrior, or simply moving around your home, maintaining the health of your joints, cartilage, and bones is essential for achieving your optimal potential.

Aging Joints Happen

Unfortunately, even with normal aging and the absence of any history of joint injury, our joints deteriorate, and we increasingly face reduced joint function and mobility and occasional joint pain. Several factors influence our joint health: age, sex, body weight, exercise, and genetics.

However, dietary factors such as high-quality protein, adequate and balanced micronutrient intake, and joint-supportive supplements may help reduce age-associated wear-and-tear on our joints.

Why Joint Support

And, among joint support dietary supplements, Isagenix has formulated a nutraceutical with an award-winning ingredient from specialized cucumbers.

Joint Support for Joint Function and Mobility

Joint Support features a patented extract from selected heirloom cucumbers (Cucumis sativus), known as Q-actin®. It supports joint health at a low dose of 20mg per day. In 2021, Q-actin won the 2021 Nutrition Industry Executive Award for the Healthy Aging category. This ingredient is unique in that it is rich in specific iminosugars. While most dietary sugars provide energy (calories) and are associated with food sweetness and palatability, iminosugars have a different molecular structure, which provides them with cellular and physiological functions, including strengthening joints, reducing joint pain, and reducing the breakdown of cartilage (1,2).

Two clinical studies have documented Q-actin’s benefits, including a study showing Q-actin’s superiority at promoting joint health compared to a much larger dose of glucosamine and chondroitin (3,4).

Finally, Joint Support tastes great in an easy-to-enjoy, raspberry-flavored gummy. Joint Support is also soy-free, gluten-free, and non-GMO.

Complementary Isagenix Products for Joint Support

Isagenix prides itself on combining a comprehensive systematic approach to nutrition with targeted solutions to achieve optimal health and wellness. For optimizing joint health, Joint Support can be paired with other Isagenix products, including Collagen Elixir™, Collagen Bone Broth, AMPED™ Repair, and Hydrate + Hyaluronic Acid. Each of these products provides complementary ingredients supporting overall joint health and function.
