Lurosil Supplement Facts

Glucosamine is the most widely known natural arthritis remedy, but Lurosil doesn't just settle for glucosamine alone. We've developed a unique blend of ingredients that, although rare and hard to find in cheap, over-the-counterjoint remedies, are essential to making Lurosil one of the top joint relief supplements on the market.

Hyaluronic Acid-Hyaluronic acid (HA) is also produced naturally in the human body, as one of the major lubicrating components of synovial fluid. Since 1987, doctors from all over the world, particularly Japan and Italy, have used HA as a treatment for mild osteoarthritis. Although it is not yet known how HA works, it is believed to block prostoglandin E2, a lipid that causes inflammation and pain. Clinical studies show significant improvement in pain reduction and function and no negative side effects or long term complications from HA.(3)

MSM-MSM, or methylsulfonylmethane, is a sulphur compound that is widely touted as having impressive anti-inflammatory effects A recent double blind clinical trial has shown MSM acts as an anti-infammatory and analgesic. When MSM is taken in conjunction with glucosamine, the effects have been shown to be more powerful towards treating osteoarthritis pain than either placebo or each ingredient alone. (4)

Bromelain-Bromelain, most commonly found in the stem of the pineapple plant, is actually a combination of sulphuric protein-digesting enzymes mixed with perioxidase, calcium, and acid phosphatase. It has been used for years in the treatment of everything from athletic injury to hemmroids, and recent clinical trials show that as part of an oral enzyme combination, bromelain is equally effective in treating osteoarthritis pain and inflammation as dicofenac, a common NSAID.

Boswellia extract-Boswellia extract is one of the newest and most exciting potential osteoarthritis treatments available. Boswellia trees are known for their fragrant resin, and in many cultures this resin has been used as an anti-inflammatory for the treatment of arthritis pain. Medical science has only recently discovered this property, but already the initial experiments show boswellia significantly reduces localized pain with side effects comparable or less than placebo.

Turmeric-Circumin, derived from turmeric, has been used in Aryuvedic (Indian) medicine as an anti-inflammatory for literally hundreds of years. Initially western medicine dismissed the claims, but recent clinical trials have shown circumin drastically reduces the level of glycoprotein (Gp A72) in arthritic animals, which has reduced the concurrent inflammation by as much as 83%. This research has led to an explosion of interest in circumin as an anti-inflammatory, and further clinical trials are pending.

Devil's Claw Root-Devil's Claw, or Harpagophytum, is a somewhat rare plant native to South Africa. The root of the plant contains the active ingredient harpagoside, which European explorers have used for centuries in the treatment of arthritis. Clinical studies show that devil's claw root can reduce pain symptoms by over 25%, and patients showed continually improvement over time.
