As the baby boomer generation reaches middle age, it is estimated that up to 80 percent of us will suffer some form of joint disease or discomfort, especially osteoarthritis and joint and ligament damage. The problem is compounded by the fact that boomers will ultimately become the longest-lived generation in history. That's why natural supplements are so important. They don't have the complications, such as gastrointestinal upset, kidney or liver toxicity, of medical drugs-and clinical studies validate that they work extremely well not only to quell joint pain but also to rebuild the joints. A rich source of sulfur, MSM helps the body to manufacture collagen to repair its cartilage, tendons, ligaments and muscles.
Most people suffer from sulfur deficiency.
It's only one of the hidden causes we look at with patients suffering from joint disease. Another great benefit from using MSM, by the way, is softer, younger looking skin. Meanwhile, many Packers team members are using glucosamine sulfate, a natural substance that helps to rebuild joint surfaces by nurturing cells that product glycosaminoglycans. More than 20 clinical studies validate that glucosamine sulfate can help in cases of osteoarthritis of the knees, hips and other areas of the body. Moreover, this nutrient seems to work for both rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis.
