What do we feel is the wrong path? A lot of people take supplements such as Glucosamine, Chondroitin, Cissus, SAM-e, MSM, Hyaluronic Acid, and on and on for joint problems. While a lot of these supplements seem to alleviate pain (somewhat) in people, they are not fixing the problem! Virtually the only supplements that studies show can actually FIX THE PROBLEM (and have some science behind them showing a regeneration of cartilage) are the particulars of Hydrolyzed Beef Collagen (powder) and Type II Undenatured Collagen (pills). So for decades, people keep taking supplements that are maybe giving them less pain and band-aiding the problem (glucosamine, chondroitin, etc.), which is great— but they are overlooking the actual solution to the problem. Which is: the taking of the two most important compounds that are the key fixes to long-term ability to keep on squatting, pressing, knees, shoulders, elbows, exercising, training, and what have you...

You can study Glucosamine, Chondroitin, Cissus, SAM-e, MSM, and Hyaluronic Acid all day long.  You will see "pain relief" and keywords such as "building blocks of,"— but then look through the studies, and there is never any recoup of cartilage in any studies in people. Only pain relief. If you truly want to actually solve the problem that comes with repetitive training/trauma as you get older.... if you truly want to potentially rebuild cartilage that has been lost, it's important that you use the ingredients that have been shown in studies to work toward that goal. 

There is nothing more devastating to a bodybuilder/trainer/athlete than tearing a pec tendon on a pressing exercise, tearing a patella tendon on a squat, tearing a bicep tendon, a tricep tendon— or, worse of all: having shoulders that don't allow you to even train anymore. Some of these injuries can put you out for a year or even end your lifting career.

We believe in a 2-pronged approach to joint health utilizing two supplements that are so important in this process. Hydrolyzed Beef Collagen (a powder that will mix like a dream into any protein drink or smoothie/beverage you make) and J-Flex9,  a supplement that has the Undenatured Type II collagen in it along with Curcumin, Boswellia Serratta, and 5 other ingredients that have shown pain relief.

You can band-aid the problem, or you can fix the problem.
