Dealing with Joint Pain

If you have pain in your joints, Glucosamine and MSM might be what you're looking for.

According to the 2012 Canadian Census, 4.5 million people in Canada above the age of 15 report arthritis. It is expected to rise to 7 million by 2031.

Glucosamine sulfate (Proteoglycan) is a substance inside your joints that helps your cartilage stay springy. Age and other issues can cause your body to produce less Glucosamine dramatically. This results in cartilage erosion, narrowed joint space, inflammation, stiffness, and deformity. When taken orally as a supplement, glucosamine sulfate acts as a anti-arthritic agent by providing the connecting matrix between the protein filaments in cartilage. 

MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) is a organic compound that is vital for building joints, cartilage, skin, hair and nails. Sulfur strengthens the tissues that make up the joint by maintaining the bonds of tissue between joints.

Taken together, Glucosamine and MSM can help repair your joints and provide you with pain relief.

I'm I right? OK, I am. Are you ready? Say: / !CHA-GA!/ Well done! Its stern Latin name,  Inonotus Obliquus,  as well as how it sucks good life out of a poor white birch as in the picture above tell you that it is something out of ordinary. Chaga in a much more civilized guise  This monster of a mushroom grows by extracting nutrition from living trees instead of dead ones like most other mushrooms, and it grows only in the coldest regions of the northern hemisphere. Chaga takes at least five years to mature and attempts to cultivate it have resulted in significantly reduced bio-acti...
