Let’s Examine the Ingredients:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NEM® Eggshell Membrane – 500 mg
NEM® is an eggshell membrane ingredient with multiple published safety and effectiveness studies for joint health. Multiple human studies have shown fast and continued results for joint comfort and flexibility in as little as 7 to 10 days with a 500 mg. daily dose, the exact dose that is in Joint Edge.
NEM® has been shown in clinical studies to help reduce exercise induced pain and stiffness and to help protect against cartilage breakdown. It has also been shown to support healthy articular cartilage and surrounding synovial tissue by nourishing joints, as well as by supporting a balanced immune response to typical daily wear and tear.
Clinical studies have shown that NEM® can help to promote normal joint comfort and flexibility, usually within 7 to 10 days.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CurcuPrime® – 250 mg.
Tetrahydrocurcumin, sometimes abbreviated 4-HC, is a major metabolic constituent of curcumin that is commonly believed to be responsible for many of curcumin’s benefits.
Tetrahydrocurcumin has similar, if not stronger, properties to curcumin and it also helps overcome the poor oral bioavailability issues associated with curcumin.
Researchers have also shown that Tetrahydrocurcumin may reduce pro-inflammatory indicators like interleukin-1, interleukin-6, TNF-⍺, and prostaglandin E2.
CurcuPrime® Tetrahydrocurcumin is a branded ingredient from NNB Nutrition and is 100% naturally sourced and is extracted for purity and consistent potency from batch to batch.

Hyaluronic Acid – 200 mg.
Hyaluronic Acid is compound that is present in every tissue in the body, with the highest concentrations occurring in connective tissues such as skin and cartilage. It is an important constituent of joint fluid, where it serves as a lubricant and plays a role in resisting compressive forces.
Hyaluronic Acid is often taken as a supplement both to support joint health and lubrication as well as to promote retinal, skin, and hair health.

Boswellin® Super – 100 mg.
Boswellin® Super is obtained from the gum of Boswellia Serrata trees, commonly known as Frankincense, which has been used for its medicinal properties for hundreds of years.
In modern times, the most common uses for Boswellin supplements are for their anti-arthritic and anti-inflammatory benefits. Studies have shown that Boswellia Serrata has an anti-inflammatory action much like conventional non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) used for inflammatory conditions but without the side effects commonly associated with conventional NSAIDS. This makes Boswellia Serrata one of the most popular natural ingredients available for inflammation. However, not all Boswellia Serrata ingredients are equal as there are many different standardizations available and many lack the level of active ingredients to deliver on the potential of this awesome ingredient. That is why we picked Boswellin® Super for a very specific reason.
What makes Boswellin® Super so special?
Boswellin® Super is a specific form of Boswellin that is standardized for 50% β-Boswellic acids of which 30% is Acetyl-11-keto- β -Boswellic Acid (AKBBA). There are four major pentacyclic triterpenic acids identified in Boswellin® Super: β-Boswellic Acid, Acetyl-β-Boswellic Acid, 11-keto- β -Boswellic Acid, and Acetyl-11-keto-β -Boswellic Acid (AKBBA). The significance of having such a high concentration of AKBBA is that AKBBA is reported to have the most potent anti-inflammatory action and is also reported to be active against a large number of inflammatory conditions including arthritis, chronic colitis, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, and bronchial asthma.
Note: Many dietary supplements on the market mislead consumers by quoting research on an ingredient but then not including the dosage of the ingredient that was used in the studies or hiding the mg. of the ingredient in a proprietary blend. Joint Edge contains a dosage of Boswellin® Super that has been used in studies and that is recommended by the patent holder for its joint support benefits.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AstraGin® – 25 mg.
AstraGin® is a natural patented ingredient complex comprised of highly fractionated Astragalus membranaceus and Panax notoginseng and created using pharmaceutical grade extraction and processing technology and designed to help enhance nutrient absorption.
In short, AstraGin® is designed to help make sure you properly absorb the other great ingredients in Joint Edge for maximum results.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bioperine® – 10 mg.
Bioperine® is a standardized extract from the fruit of Piper nigrum L (Black Pepper) containing 95% piperine. Piperine has been shown to enhance the oral bioavailability of many supplements.
Bioperine® is included in Joint Edge because it has been shown in clinical studies to help increase the absorption of curcumin and boswellin, and also to help ensure that you properly absorb and get the maximum results out of all of the other awesome ingredients in the comprehensive Joint Edge formulation.
