Joints

Description

Joints are the point at which two or more Bonesare connected.  Ligaments strengthen Joints and limit their movement to certain directions.  Rheumatism is a nonspecific term for any ailment that causes Inflammation or degeneration of the Joints.

Musculoskeletal System

 Joints contain the Synovial Fluid that lubricates the Bones and prevents friction and wear on them during movement.

Amino Acids

 Proline (and its derivative, Hydroxyproline) is an essential component of Joints.

Carbohydrates

 Glucosamine Sulfate may improve the function of Joints, may eliminate the Pain of damaged Joints and may help to repair damaged Joints.  ^[1]

 Hyaluronic Acid is the major component of Joint Fluids.

Hormones

 Human Growth Hormone (when administered under the guidance of a physician, via injection, directly into damaged Joints) may regenerate the Cartilage of damaged Joints by up to 90% (after one application).  ^[2]

 Exogenous, natural Progesterone (applied topically) may reduce Inflammation and Pain in the Joints and improve the flexibility of damaged Joints: 

 This claim is based on anecdotal reports after topical application of Progesterone cream several times per day for five consecutive days.
