Joint-Flex is one of my own formulations I decided to create after seeing many
patients with joint issues. In addition to Glucosamine, I added Chondroitin, MSM and Ginger which together form a very powerful and effective combination if you have any type of arthritis. I know it works, because many of my patients tell me so, and so do
practitioners like several practitioners in NZ who now are using Joint Flex in their clinics.
Joint Flex was created in a high potency form, particularly to give the patient a high level of Glucosamine. Many studies show that 1500mg daily is the optimal dose to assist in rebuilding cartilage and connective tissue. Joint Flex contains 2100mg glucosamine per daily serve of one capsule three times daily, along with co-factors which assist the patient who has osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis or muscular discomfort. It is a powerful product specifically designed to help support healthy joint function and maintenance and when taken regularly over time will help to support damaged cartilage while supporting mobility, flexibility and circulation.
Dosage: Try one cap twice daily with meals for a few weeks, then 3 per day. Reduce dosage if digestive discomfort occurs, and try a short period of
liver treatment.

Digestive discomfort: Some people develop digestive discomfort on three capsules of Joint-Flex per day (even when taken with or during meals). If this is the case, I would recommend two weeks of liver treatment. Liver congestion is common and can make one feel "queasy" when taking glucosamine sulphate. Generally speaking, a light liver treatment will pave the way and allow you to take this product without experiencing many digestive issues.
Duration: Studies have shown the products like Joint-Flex are best taken three times daily for at least 3 months (12 weeks) before a significant benefit is experienced. Once your body incorporates glucosamine and utilises the chondroitin and MSM, you can reduce the dosage to two or even one capsule for extended periods of time, utilising the occasional "top-up" when pain is experienced.
