1 Editors Choice Top Joint Pain Supplements OsteoJuv OsteoJuv is America s number one selling joint pain supplement and deservedly so. The scientists at OsteoJuv have covered all bases with this supplement. The list of active ingredients reads like an all- star line up of the industry s best and most proven ingredients. OsteoJuv rapidly reduces inflammation and blocks damaging enzymes from further destroying cartilage and surrounding tissue, which means that pain stops fast! But what makes OsteoJuv the winner of this years Editor s Choice Award is its Shocking Ability to lubricate joints, eliminating stiffness and allowing for greater range of motion. OsteoJuv is fast acting, it has been proven effective on all types of joint pain, from moderate to severe, and best of all, OsteoJuv is affordable. For a limited time, you can Try OsteoJuv for only $19.99, an offer so unbeatable, OsteoJuv dares you to try. OsteoJuv does not limit your purchase options. While they do offer automatic delivery of your monthly supply, they also offer one time purchase options of one bottle for $64.99 or a 2 bottle purchase option for only $99. This allows you to control when your supplies are charged and sent, which many consumers prefer. Purchasing is via their website, 2. Instaflex - This brand generates a good bit of interest on line due to TV commercials and other marketing efforts. Instaflex contains some quality active ingredients, however there are many mixed reviews about the product and its billing practices. Instaflex offers free trial offers and automatic billing. While this is no indication as to the quality of the product, many times that can generate a number of negative reviews and testimonials. Negative reviews are difficult to overcome, yet Instaflex continues to thrive, which indicates that there are at least some pleased customers. Overall, Instaflex contains some ingredients that are beneficial for joint health support. It does not work as quickly or as completely as our Editor s Choice, but with continued use Instaflex would yield results. Unfortunately, their purchase options are limited and you don t have a choice to buy the product outright without agreeing to monthly billing, which is a turn off for many consumers. The cost is $4.99 for shipping and handling and they provide you with a 14 days sample, if you do not cancel within that time, Instaflex will charge you $74.98 for a 30 day supply and automatically enroll you to receive the product every 30 days.

2 Purchasing is via their website, 3. Omega XL Omega XL is an Omega 3 fish oil supplement. As such is has anti- inflammatory properties, which can help reduce joint pain and discomfort. Omega XL is priced higher than many other omega 3 supplements which raises some concern for some consumers. Omega XL focuses ONLY on the inflammation aspect of joint pain. It does not contain active ingredinets designed to increase lubrication in the joint, it simply addresses inflammation. Without cushioning and lubrication your joints continue to become inflamed and ache. There are many joint pain supplements on the market which can be combined with Omega XL to achieve a more complete remedy, however combining supplements can get costly. Omega XL offers an initial price of $49.95 for your first bottle and automatically enrolls you to receive a monthly supply for $60.90 PLUS shipping and handling. This charge will continue monthly as will delivery of your Omega XL. Purchasing is via their website, 4. Anatabloc Anatabloc uses the active ingredient Anatabine. This ingredient is found in the tobacco plant and is said to reduce inflammation in joints. Inflammation leads to sore tissue which amounts to pain and limited range of motion. Anatabloc is designed to eliminate that inflammation and as such remove the source of the pain. Anatabloc manufacturers have come under a great deal of fire lately due to their outrageous claims and their lack of proven evidence to support it. Anatabine has had very limited testing on humans and the studies that have been conducted are considered pre- clinical meaning they have not generated enough evidence to warrant human testing as of yet. Pretty scary stuff when you stop and think about it. That being said, Anatabloc s sales volume continues to increase and consumers seem to like the product, although some report it is too costly. While the long term side effects of taking Anatabloc are not known due to lack of testing, we recommend you use caution. There are reasons why ingredients need to be studied BEFORE they are ingested, so think twice before you rush in. Anatabloc sells for $99 a bottle or you can purchase it for $79.99 if you agree to receive the product monthly. Monthly Charge is also $ Purchasing is via their website,

3 5. Arthri- D Arthri- D joint pain treatment has been seen by many consumers on television infomercials. The formula and the active ingredients, however, are not as transparent. The manufacturer says Arthri- D contains antioxidants, vitamins and minerals. This does not give consumers much to base their purchase decision upon other than the sales content on the website or opinions that are televised. Arthri- D has a mixed reviews online, and there have been some complains of improper billing practices, however it is always very tough to validate these types of claims. At the price of Arthri- D, you should be sure that you understand exactly what type of automatic delivery you are signing up for BEFORE you buy, otherwise it may get costly. Arthri- D is sold in a number of ways. If you just want to purchase one bottle of Arthri- D it will cost you $99. If you wish to receive monthly deliveries, you may do so for the cost of $ Arthri- D also offers two and three bottle purchase options for $199 and $299 respectively. Purchasing is via their website, 6. Flexoplex Flexoplex is another joint pain supplement that is generating enough momentum to reach our editors pick list. The product is offered online primarily and there is a good bit of information to research and understand. The active ingredients list is substantial and has a number of proven building blocks for joint health. Flexoplex contains 120 pills in every bottle, which amounts to roughly a 30 day supply, so you are going to be taking a lot of these pills. While that is troublesome for some, most don t mind as long as it works. Flexoplex is not the fastest acting joint pain pill, but there does seem to be positive testimonials out there. Flexoplex does a lot of marketing online, so it is important that you don t get overly persuaded by their company owned health blogs which appear to be recommending the product. It is Flexoplex themselves that operate the websites, so the advice is somewhat a conflict of interest. Flexoplex is sold for $34.99 for one bottle or you can purchase 3 bottles for $ There are also larger supply order options for bottles of 5, priced at $ Purchasing is via their website,

4 7. Supple Supple is a joint health supplement that is a drink. This citrus flavored drink is designed to reduce inflammation and promote cartilage and tendon growth. Supple features glucosamine and chondroitin as their active ingredients, however they do not use the sulfate variety of these ingredients, instead opting for the less expensive HCl variety. Supple has also had many complaints about improper billing practices, but as we have stated, it is difficult to measure the validity of these claims. That being said, if you decide you want to drink you joint supplement rather than swallow it, be sure you understand the buying options that Supple offers, as most come with automatic delivery. Supple offers its buying options broken down by cost per day. This can be confusing for many. A 30 day supply costs $69.99, a 60 day supply $89.95 and a 90 day supply for $ Each of these options come with automatic delivery and charges. Purchasing is via their website, or in stores nationwide. 8. Osteo Bi- Flex Osteo Bi Flex is recognized more by many consumers, presumably due to its availability in local drug stores. While most times store bought items are not as strong or as effective as many of the more powerful options found online, Osteo Bi Flex comes in a number of strength options. The concentration of active ingredients in Osteo Bi Flex is not very high. This means you would need to take the supplement for a longer period of time to see the results, which costs you more money in the long run. With supplements, sometimes you get what you pay for. Osteo Bi Flex is a trusted manufacturer, but don t expect that fastest or most complete results. Prices vary quite a bit on Osteo Bi Flex because it is sold in number of retail stores. Most options are roughly $35 per bottle and the bottle should last you roughly 30 days. Be prepared to take the product longer to see some of the benefits, as it is not as fast acting as our top editors pick. 9. Move Free Move Free is another joint pain supplement that is readily available in retail stores. The active ingredients in Move Free are of high quality, however there is some concern as to the concentration of these active ingredients. With continued use, Move Free should accumulate within your system and eventually deliver the benefits you are hoping for. Move Free is a larger company and its retail sales volume keeps it on the Editors pick list, however this is not a fast acting joint pain solution. Consumers should expect to take Move Free for an

5 extended period of time, prior to realizing benefits. At this concentration, it will take a while for the active ingredients to accumulate within your system. Move Free price ranges from $29.99 to $39.99 depending on where you purchase the product and which formula you choose. The price may seem lower than some of the higher rated options on the list, however when you factor in how long you need to take it to see benefits, the product is priced competitively. 10. TFX Flex TFX Flex is yet another joint pain supplement offered by GNC. The product contains very similar ingredients to Instaflex, however the product is not nearly as popular yet. Perhaps this is due to a lack of television advertising or celebrity endorsement, but perhaps the formula is just not as effective. UC Collagen is a featured active ingredient which is said to increase the cushioning and lubrication in the joints, which is an important aspect to joint pain treatment. Increasing cushioning limits the damage and irritation caused to the tissues within the joints. Damaged and inflamed tissue leads to painful joints. TFX Flex claims to offer both a Free Trial as well as one time purchase options, however you can seldom find the website to buy the one time purchase options. Instead consumers are funneled towards the 14 day free trial options. When we tried to read the terms and conditions of the trial offer, the website page was faulty or down, which raises some concerns. In addition, we were unable to buy the product via the GNC store website either which leads us to believe that they are no longer carrying the product either.
