How does Jointlax work?<\/strong>
\n<\/strong><\/h5>\n

This product contains a proprietary mix of different ingredients that are supposed to work naturally with the body to address the main issues that cause joint pain. Many of the ingredients are supposed to be powerful anti-inflammatories, reducing the inflammation that can put pressure on nerves and tissues can cause pain and discomfort. Other ingredients focus on providing lubrication that can increase the ease of movement of joints, and to provide support and cushioning to reduce added stress.<\/p>\n

Going right to the symptoms themselves, some of the elements of this formula are intended primarily as pain relievers, presumably so that people can see immediate results while the formula goes to work on the root causes of a person’s joint issues. Several of these ingredients are also supposed to be potent anti-bacterial agents and provide boosted immune function, adding a secondary, whole-body benefit to taking the product.

What’s inside of it and are there side effects?<\/strong><\/h5>\n

The ingredients in this supplement seem to come primarily from natural sources, with several of them being common in many other joint pain relief products. They claim that the product is made in a GMP-certified facility in the United States, promising a relevant level of quality and safety.<\/p>\n

While the company has included some products in this formula that are known to have positive qualities, there are other ingredients that are of questionable value and whose effects have not been sufficiently proven in laboratory testing. The following is a list of some of the main ingredients in this supplement:<\/p>\n

Glucosamine Sulfate<\/strong>: This supplement is often derived from shellfish, and is found in the fluid that surrounds joints. Supplements often include this product for its positive effects on joint health, in that it’s supposed to help increase the amount of cartilage and fluid that surround joints for reduced friction and pain.<\/p>\n

Chondroitin<\/strong>: Another chemical commonly found in and around the joints, it’s generally made from animal sources like the cartilage of sharks and cows. As a supplement, it’s supposed to help support cartilage strength and prevent it from breaking down as quickly.<\/p>\n

Hyaluronic Acid<\/strong>: This substance is found naturally in the human body, and is a component of eye fluids. It has been prescribed as a supplement for joint health, due to its lubricant properties, but according to WebMD, the only way this substance has had an observable effect on helping with joint pain is when it’s been directly injected into the joint \u2013 not when consumed orally as a part of a dietary supplement.<\/p>\n

Black Catechu<\/strong>: An herb that’s made into a medicinal remedy for a number of applications, like diarrhea, mouth sores, and gum disease. It’s supposed to have antibacterial properties, but there’s \u201cinsufficient evidence\u201d that it has any effect on joint health per se. There’s not enough evidence that this ingredient is safe when taken long-term, or when in contact with the skin.<\/p>\n

CMO (Cetyl Myristoleate): This ingredient is a chemical that was first tested in laboratories for potential effects on reducing inflammation and preventing some forms of arthritis. Unfortunately, the only tests done on people are considered \u201clow-quality\u201d and the FDA has filed several complaints against supplement manufacturers for overstating the effects this ingredient is supposed to have.<\/strong><\/p>\n

What’s good about Jointlax?<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Some ingredients in this product are used in many other joint pain relief supplements, including glucosamine and chondroitin, which can help provide extra support to the cartilage and fluids surrounding the joints, allowing them to function effectively. The ingredients are also mostly of natural extraction, meaning that there are no real \u201cfake\u201d or \u201cartificial\u201d chemicals and compounds that could potentially have negative effects on certain people who have sensitivity to synthetic products.<\/p>\n

The product is also made in a facility that meets Good Manufacturing Practices standards for quality, and is made in the USA, meaning it at least is subject to regulations and standards that ingredients and products made in some overseas facilities are not subject to.<\/p>\n

The company offers a 60-day money back guarantee for customers who don’t see it working for them, although they do say that opened bottles are subject to a partial refund, as opposed to a full one.<\/p>\n

These are the Top 10 treatments that can reduce pain and inflammation in joints.<\/a><\/p>\n

What’s bad about Jointlax?<\/strong><\/h5>\n

The two main problems with this supplement have to do with ingredients and the company itself. Some of the ingredients, such as catechu and cetyl myristoleate, have little to no evidence that they actually work for the purposes they’re claimed to, and as a result, these unproven ingredients could be padding out and watering down the formula, limiting the overall effectiveness of the product.<\/p>\n

The company itself doesn’t seem to have a proper business address, making them seem less professional and authentic than other supplement companies. They also do not have a profile with the Better Business Bureau, meaning there’s no way to see their customer service history and if they’ve had complaints lodged against them. It’s always good to get more information about a company up front before buying from them, and Jointlax doesn’t seem to provide this.<\/p>\n

What do customers think about Jointlax?<\/strong><\/h5>\n

We found reviews on Amazon, and while some people saw some benefits to using this product, others were not satisfied. One thing that we noticed in particular is that several of the people who claimed it worked referenced muscle aches, with others specifically only talking about the pain relief they experienced. Since the product contains pain relieving agents, this is to be expected, but we couldn’t tell if these same people who rated it positively saw any improvement in joint health.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have a degenerative joint problem, and this product definitely seems to help.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI haven’t seen any results yet, so I am hoping by the end of the bottle that I’ll actually see the product’s benefits. None so far, though.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI’m still feeling joint pain in my knees, despite taking this product for weeks. I’ll have to try it for a few more weeks, I guess.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI can buy two bottles of another joint pain product for the price of only one Jointlax.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n
