Thorne Joint Support Nutrients, 240 Capsules

Thorne's Joint Support Nutrients is a comprehensive formula designed to support joint health and mobility, going beyond basic glucosamine supplementation. It combines glucosamine sulfate at a dose of 750 mg per serving (1,500 mg at the suggested daily use of four capsules) with methyl sulfonyl methane (MSM), Indian Frankincense extract (Boswellia serrata), Curcumin Phytosome (Meriva®), and bromelain. The manufacturer notes that the glucosamine amount aligns with doses used in clinical studies, and the inclusion of Meriva® curcumin phytosome, a curcumin-phosphatidylcholine complex from sunflower, is highlighted for its enhanced absorption compared to standard curcumin.

This product is formulated to help maintain a healthy cytokine balance for a normal inflammatory response in joints and muscles, based on manufacturer references to clinical research. For example, the manufacturer cites studies on bromelain showing improvement in knee soreness and joint mobility with daily use. The capsules are gluten-free and manufactured in the USA, with third-party testing for label accuracy and contaminant safety. It's available in a 240-capsule bottle, providing 60 servings at the suggested use of four capsules daily.
