Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of joint pain as we age. With progressive erosion of joint cartilage and resulting inflammation, people with OA experience pain, reduced range of motion, and increased stiffness, which can seriously affect their quality of life.

There are many natural agents that can be used to improve outcomes in patients with osteoarthritis, but few have more research and years of clinical support than glucosamine, chondroitin, hyaluronic acid, and methylsulfonylmethane (MSM). These agents are components of cartilage and synovial fluid, helping to provide shock absorption to the joint and reduce friction with movement. For example, glucosamine is naturally produced by chondrocytes and is necessary for the production of glycosaminoglycans, a key component of cartilage. Hyaluronic acid is a central component of synovial fluid. Glucosamine sulfate, in particular, has been shown to stimulate the anabolic process of cartilage metabolism and improve clinical outcomes more effectively than glucosamine HCl.

Hydrolyzed collagen is clinically researched to support joint health. Studies show that collagen peptides provide the building blocks needed to manufacture joint cartilage and that they upregulate chondrocyte activity, increase hyaluronic acid production, and improve microcirculation. Clinical trials have shown that collagen peptides can improve activity-related knee pain in healthy athletes, as well as knee and hip pain during rest and activity in middle-aged people. Vitamin C may enhance these benefits because it is a necessary cofactor in the collagen production process.

Natural anti-inflammatory herbs such as curcuma longa, boswellia serrata, zingiber officinale, devil's claw, and withania somnifera also play a role in the management of osteoarthritis. Several human clinical trials have confirmed that these herbs have pain-relieving properties and may be beneficial for people with osteoarthritis. Curcuma longa contains active ingredients known as curcuminoids, which have been shown to inhibit NF-kappa B and TNF-alpha in chronic inflammatory conditions. Research trials have shown that curcuminoids may reduce the need for pain-relieving medications such as acetaminophen and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in people with osteoarthritis. They may also decrease post-exercise muscle soreness. In addition to their anti-inflammatory action on NF-kappa B and TNF-alpha, curcuminoids inhibit matrix metalloproteinase-3, an enzyme known to degrade cartilage. This means it both improves symptoms and protects joints from further damage. Joint Matrix Liquid specifically uses a proprietary curcuminoid blend that is standardized to a minimum curcuminoid content of 95% curcumin, BDMC, and DMC. This proprietary curcuminoid blend, known as uC3 Clear Complex, has over 80 research articles and over 45 clinical studies to support its efficacy and safety.

Boswellia's clinical benefits for osteoarthritis come from its boswellic acid content and its ability to inhibit matrix metalloproteinase-3 and 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX). Standardized boswellia extracts can decrease pain, reduce swelling, and increase range of motion. One trial found boswellia to be as effective as the NSAID valdecoxib in relieving osteoarthritis symptoms.
