The Real Thing Joint Revolution Tablets

Five ingredients. No additives. A revolution in joint care. It doesn’t just fight pain, degeneration and damage. It also helps promote regeneration and repair. Viva!

WHAT'S IN IT?

FACT: Joint Revolution is the ideal supplement for osteoarthritis. Why? Because this joint condition causes both cartilage damage and a decrease in the quality of synovial fluid in the joint capsule. And Joint Revolution helps reverse both.

1. HYAL-JOINT™
What? A natural extract of hyaluronic acid (HA), the main component of synovial fluid – for more on this joint-lubing liquid, see our BACKGROUND section.

What else? It’s a shock-absorbing, friction-fighting force. First-phase trials have also shown that Hyal-Joint^TM reduces inflammation and stimulates the natural production of HA within joints.

Where’s it from? Bioiberica – a cutting-edge company in Spain that specialises in joint care and chondroprotection. The Real Thing scours the world to find the best thing. And this natural extract is the best and most active form of oral HA available today. Obviously.  

How does it help?

• LESS WEAR AND TEAR. More HA means superior synovial fluid, which means less erosion of cartilage and bones.
• LESS INFLAMMATION. More HA reduces inflammation, which leads to enhanced joint function.
• LESS PAIN. Reduced friction and inflammation in the joint and surrounding muscles means more relief from stiffness and pain.
• RHEUMATOID RELIEF. Research has shown that Hyal-Joint^TM effectively reduces the concentration of cartilage-destroying prostaglandins in joints affected by rheumatoid arthritis.
• OSTEO EASE. A second-phase clinical trial involving people with osteoarthritis of the knee concluded that, in just eight weeks, Hyal-Joint^TM treatment caused:

                                - 33% improvement in pain scores

                                - 14% improvement in physical condition scores

                                - 16% improvement in emotional condition scores

                                - Overall reduced pain and better functionality

                                - Improved performance of daily tasks like walking and climbing stairs.

2. HYDROLYSED TYPE II COLLAGEN
What? Collagen is the protein that keeps connective tissue intact. And Type II Collagen is the kind found in the cartilage lining joints.

Why is it hydrolysed? So it can be easily absorbed to help strengthen and nourish joint tissues like cartilage, ligaments and tendons.

How does it help?

• MORE RAW MATERIAL. A healthy supply of Type II Collagen means the body has what it needs to build healthier cartilage.
• MORE STRUCTURAL SUPPORT. Cartilage protects the joint from friction, compression, repetitive movement and impact. So a sturdy cartilage layer makes a sturdier joint. Simple.
• LESS INJURY. More collagen means better shock-absorption and less chance of joint damage. Athletes and sportspeople love it.

3. NATIVE TYPE II COLLAGEN
What? Another cousin in the collagen family, Native Type II Collagen is extremely strong.

Why? Its fibrils are arranged end-to-end in stripy striations. This makes the protein tough enough to resist the forces of muscle contraction and movement.

How does it help?

• MORE PROTECTION. This powerful protein protects cartilage and other joint tissues from damage.
• LESS PAIN. It lends a hand in fighting inflammation, stiffness and pain. A strong hand.
• RHEUMATOID FACTOR. Studies have shown that Native Type II Collagen can help treat rheumatoid arthritis in primates. How? By making up for the collagen lost through antibody attack.

4. GLUCOSAMINE
What? A natural glucose-based compound that hits the joint-care sweet spot.

What else? It’s found in all connective tissues, including tendons, ligaments, cartilage and synovial fluid. That’s why it’s one of the most well-known joint revolutionaries around (find more reasons here).

How does it help?

• LESS INFLAMMATION. Glucosamine is one of the body’s own natural anti-inflammatory compounds.
• MORE COLLAGEN. It stimulates the production of collagen, which increases the strength of all connective tissues in joints.
• LESS DAMAGE. A three-year clinical trial in Europe involving more than 100 people showed that glucosamine sulphate helps prevent the cartilage wear-and-tear seen in osteoarthritis.
• ARTHRITIS ON TRIAL. It’s used to effectively treat both rheumatoid and osteoarthritis. In 2000, a French study found that glucosamine sulphate improves the spinal pain and immobility caused by spondylarthrosis. And the benefits continued for a while, even after the subjects had stopped taking it.

GLUCOASAMINE + CHONDROITIN = LOVE. Glucosamine sulphate and chondroitin sulphate both occur naturally in joints. But when these two natural compounds are combined in a supplement they add up to unnaturally good results. 

5. CHONDROITIN SULPHATE
What? It’s found naturally in joints where it helps toughen up cartilage and tone down inflammation.

What else? When paired with glucosamine both compounds work harder. The healing dream team.

How does it help?

• MORE STRENGTH. Chondroitin sulphate promotes the production of cartilage components like proteoglycans and attracts water to maintain the osmotic pressure in cartilage. A fancy way of saying it keeps joint surfaces strong and flexible.
• LESS STRAIN. It helps shield cartilage from destructive enzymes that cause damage.
• LESS FRICTION. Its protective power and anti-inflammatory effects reduce friction, which means less joint damage.
• OSTEO IDEAL. The 2003 EULAR Recommendations state that oral chondroitin sulphate has an evidence rating of 1A and strength recommendation of A as a treatment for osteoarthritis of the knee. Basically, it works. And studies also say it’s great for osteoarthritis in the fingers and hips.

WHO NEEDS JOINT REVOLUTION?

Every body can benefit. Including your body. Arthritis sufferers are stretching for it. The injured are inching towards it. Athletes are running after it. Trade the painkillers and The NSAID Cyclefor a more permanent solution. Or, rather, a revolution.
