In fact, a unique combination of bioavail-
able curcumin and boswellia was judged to
be superior to the prescription arthritis drug,
celecoxib (the generic of the brand name
Celebrex®) in a clinical study of osteoarthri-
tis.5
The curcumin and boswellia combination
was better than celecoxib in relieving pain,
walking distance and joint line tenderness
scores. Not surprisingly, efficacy and tolerabil-
ity of the herbal combination used in the
current study was shown to be superior to
those of celecoxib for treating active
osteoarthritis. When it came to relieving
pain, 64% of those taking the herbal ingredi-
ents versus 29% in the drug group improved
to such a high degree that they were able to
move from having “moderate to severe
arthritis” to “mild to moderate arthritis.”5
Don’t just reduce pain—feel better,
too!
Along with those botanical powerhouses, a
smart plan for effective pain relief requires an
amino acid combination called DL-phenylala-
nine, also known as DLPA.
The “D” form of phenylalanine inhibits the
breakdown of enkephalins which are related
to endorphins and are associated with posi-
tive mood. It also relieves muscle pain in its
own right. The “L” form improves mood-ele-
vating chemicals in the brain, such as
dopamine, epinephrine, and norepineph-
rine.6-8
Last, but certainly not least, include nattok-
inase in the mix. This enzyme extract from
soy helps promote blood flow so that other
compounds that are carried in the blood-
stream (such as curcumin, boswellia, and
feel-good endorphins) can reach the areas
where they are needed the most. It supports
balanced fibrinogen too, a compound associ-
ated with muscle damage and muscle fiber
stiffness.9,10
You don’t have to keep reaching for the
same old over-the-counter remedy that may
give you more than you bargained for.
Instead, you can get relief naturally, safely,
and effectively – without the risks. It’s the
smartest way to deal with pain!
