At
Preventive Health Today, we strive to provide information and resources with the hope of assisting people in making lifestyle choices that may enhance the quality of their lives. Actions taken today may decrease your chances of having to deal with the potentially debilitating effects of chronic conditions like arthritis or osteoporosis, or reduce the degree of disability if you're already dealing with such challenges.
More and more people are turning toward alternatives than to conventional drug treatments for the management of arthritis symptoms. Research findings continue to establish that the use of glucosamine supplements can be a safe and reasonable treatment for arthritis, especially osteoarthritis. Unicity International's glucosamine supplement,
Osteo-Essentials™, is a scientifically advanced product that provides a multinutritional approach to increased flexibility and mobility. It supplies the body with a proprietary blend of glucosamine, the herb
Boswellia (known for its anti-inflammatory properties), and other nutrients formulated to repair and rebuild cartilage and bone.
A relatively unknown natural substance,
cetyl myristoleate, is also at the center of ongoing research and, based on a recently published study
1, is showing some promising results in terms of promoting joint health, particularly for people with osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis. Unicity's product,
C.M. Plex™, is a mixture of fatty acids and fatty acid esters including cetyl myristoleate. This product, which is available as both capsules and a cream, acts as an anti-inflammatory to help reduce swelling and relieve joint pain, help regulate the immune system, and help generate joint fluid, providing lubrication to increase comfort and mobility.
Osteoporosis, a disease characterized by loss of bone density, affects millions of Americans every year, 80 percent of whom are women. For most people, osteoporosis is largely preventable by engaging in regular exercise and maintaining a healthy diet, especially one rich in calcium. Unicity’s
BoneMate™ is a supplement formulated to help build and maintain bone density and health. Its three main ingredients include Ostivone
®, which supports bone mineral density, assists the body in slowing the bone loss process, and supports the benefits of taking calcium; calcium citrate malate, a patented form of highly bioavailable calcium (over 90 percent absorbed) clinically shown to decrease bone loss; and magnesium, a key mineral for maintaining bone tissue.
