Maintaining the health of your bones and joints with the nutrients they need to thrive is essential to maintain your mobility and overall quality of life. As we age, the cumulative stress of walking, running, and doing other movements can degrade the integrity of our bones and joints. Getting key nutrients solely from your diet can also be challenging, so bone and joint supplements are a convenient way to fill in your dietary gaps and protect bones and joints against the forces of aging.
You might think you’re in the clear because your diet is rich in dairy and other sources of calcium. This superstar mineral, which gives bones strength and structure can’t do the job alone though. ⅓ of your bones is collagen, vitamin D is needed for calcium absorption and glucosamine helps joint tissues. Therefore, a harmonious combination of various minerals, vitamins, and proteins is essential for maintaining smooth and effortless movement.

What vitamins and supplements help with bone and joint health?
The primary needs of bone and joints are calcium, collagen, vitamin D, Vitamin K2, magnesium, phosphorus, and zinc. Our flagship bone and joint formula Bone Essense is comprised of calcium, collagen, and glucosamine, the primary constituents of bones and joints.*
Can I get these nutrients from my diet?
With extremely careful planning, it is possible. Keep in mind though, the body doesn’t absorb 100% of the nutrients that it takes in. To get the nutrients you need, you actually have to take in several times more. Because even the best diets have gaps and our bodies’ inability to absorb all nutrients, a supplement can be a helpful way to make sure your body gets what it needs.
What is the role of vitamins in bone health?
Our bones and cartilage are mainly calcium and collagen. Before they can do their job, you need Vitamin D to help them to be absorbed into your body.
What supplements strengthen joints?
There is promising initial research that taking in the primary constituents of cartilage, such as those found in type II collagen, could help with joint mobility over time.* Glucosamine is another important essential compound for joint flexibility. Joint pain can be a result of inflammation so supplements like turmeric, Omega-3, and antioxidants may also be helpful.*
