DoSe Superior Joints, 60 Capsules

Superior Joints from DoSe by VH is a joint supplement combining vitamin C, manganese and copper with Natural Eggshell Membrane (NEM®), hyaluronic acid, turmeric, ginger and tart cherry. Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of cartilage and bones. Manganese contributes to the normal formation of connective tissue, and copper contributes to the maintenance of normal connective tissues.

At the heart of the formula is 500 mg of NEM® Natural Eggshell Membrane, derived from the thin inner membrane of eggshells. It naturally contains proteins such as collagen and elastin, as well as glycosaminoglycans including glucosamine, chondroitin and hyaluronic acid. Superior Joints brings these together with botanical ingredients in one comprehensive formula, designed to sit alongside balanced nutrition and everyday movement as part of your daily wellness routine.

The new improved formula now contains manganese, together with the original specialist ingredients. Each two-capsule serving provides 155 mg vitamin C (194% NRV), 2 mg manganese (100% NRV) and 250 mcg copper (25% NRV). Manganese also contributes to the maintenance of normal bones.

Key Ingredients:

Vitamin C (as ascorbic acid) A water-soluble vitamin the body cannot make for itself, so it must come from food. Each serving provides 155 mg (194% NRV). Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of cartilage and bones.
Manganese (as manganese sulphate) A trace mineral found in wholegrains, nuts, leafy green vegetables and tea. Manganese contributes to the normal formation of connective tissue and to the maintenance of normal bones.
Copper (as copper gluconate) An essential trace mineral found in shellfish, nuts, seeds and wholegrains. Copper contributes to the maintenance of normal connective tissues.
NEM® Natural Eggshell Membrane The thin, almost transparent layer between the eggshell and the egg white. NEM® is separated from eggshells using a patented process, and naturally contains collagen, elastin and glycosaminoglycans, including glucosamine, chondroitin and hyaluronic acid. NEM® is a registered trademark of ESM Technologies.
Hyaluronic acid (as sodium hyaluronate) A substance found naturally throughout the body, including in connective tissues, synovial fluid, skin and eyes. It was first isolated in 1934 by Karl Meyer and John Palmer.
Turmeric (Curcuma longa) root powder The golden spice and a member of the ginger family. Its vivid colour comes from natural compounds called curcuminoids, the best known of which is curcumin.
Ginger (Zingiber officinale) root powder The knobbly root, or rhizome, of a tropical plant cultivated in Asia for thousands of years, and one of the world's most widely used spices.
Tart cherry (Prunus cerasus) fruit powder Also known as sour cherry, the fruit of a small tree native to Europe and south-west Asia. Tart cherries are naturally rich in polyphenols, including anthocyanins, which give them their deep red colour.

What study has been done on NEM?
ESM Technologies has announced the publication of an independent clinical trial evaluating NEM® brand eggshell membrane. The study, conducted across six centres in Germany by Weber & Weber GmbH & Co. KG, involved adults using 500 mg of NEM® daily over 60 days. Outcomes were assessed using a short-form questionnaire based on the WOMAC index. The results were published in a peer-reviewed journal (doi:10.4172/2167-7921.1000136).*

Your joint system
The adult human skeleton has 206 bones, linked by around 350 joints. The most mobile are synovial joints, such as the knees, hips, shoulders, elbows, wrists and the small joints of the hands and feet. In a synovial joint, the ends of the bones are covered with a smooth layer of articular cartilage. The joint is enclosed in a capsule lined with a membrane that produces synovial fluid, a thick, slippery liquid that fills the joint space. Around the joint, ligaments connect bone to bone and tendons connect muscle to bone. Cartilage, ligaments and tendons are all types of connective tissue, built largely from collagen.

Collagen: the body's building protein
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body, making up around a third of its total protein. It forms the framework of cartilage, bones, ligaments, tendons and skin. Your body makes its own collagen, and vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of cartilage and bones.

How joints change with age
Joints work hard over a lifetime. Knees alone may bend tens of millions of times over the years. Articular cartilage has no blood supply of its own, so it renews itself only very slowly. With age, cartilage tends to become thinner and holds less water, and the body's natural collagen production gradually declines. Muscle mass, which helps support and stabilise the joints, also starts to fall from around middle age. That's why staying active, maintaining a healthy weight and eating a varied, balanced diet are all widely recommended to help keep joints moving well throughout life. Regular low-impact activity, such as walking, swimming, cycling, yoga and Pilates, keeps the muscles around the joints strong.

What vitamin deficiency causes joint pain?
Whilst ageing and overuse of the joints are attributed to joint pain, a Vitamin D deficiency may be linked to joint pain.

What is the different in the new improved Superior Joints formula?
Superior Joints new improved formula now contains vitamin c, and copper. Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of bones and cartilage. Copper contributes to the maintenance of normal connective tissues and therefore can be beneficial to cartilage (as cartilage is made up of connective tissue).

What time of day should I take Superior Joints?
This can be taken any time of the day preferably with food.

I cannot take pills. Can I open the Superior Joints?
Yes, you can open and sprinkle over food/mix with a drink.

How large is Superior Joints capsule?
The Superior Joints capsule is approx 2cm long.

How soon will I see the results of Superior Joints?
We suggest allowing approx 14 days to start to feel results but this can differ from person to person.

What is NEM®?
Natural Eggshell Membrane is the thin membrane on the inside of an eggshell. NEM® is one of the few joint health ingredients, and the only eggshell membrane ingredient, that is supported in the USA by a full portfolio of 16 research studies, including 4 randomized placebo-controlled trials (2 of which are healthy person trials); 4 open label clinical trials (3 of which are independent trials); veterinary trials, including one canine RCT; and a wide range of supporting in vitro and in vivo mechanism of action studies. In addition to the subjective endpoints like joint pain and stiffness, recent healthy population clinical trials have included objective endpoints via CTX-II, a cartilage degradation biomarker, giving the results additional credibility and substantiation.

Does Natural Eggshell Membrane cause side effects?
Assuming one does not have an allergy to eggs, no side effects were found.

Can I take Natural Eggshell Membrane (NEM) when I am pregnant or breastfeeding?
NEM is not suitable for use during pregnancy or whilst breastfeeding.
