Blood Support: Iron

Iron is an essential mineral and an important component involved in oxygen transport and metabolism. Iron is also an essential cofactor in the synthesis of neurotransmitters such as dopamine, epinephrine and serotonin. Iron deficiency can lead to many health complications. Carbonyl Iron, which is used in NutraBound’s Blood Support: Iron has a slower rate of release of iron than other formulas. These slower release formulations create considerably less gastro-intestinal complications and are safer for children, as well.

Joint Support: Glucosamine + Chondroitin

Glucosamine, an amino sugar, is an important building block of joint cartilage. It is present in almost all human tissues and is highly concentrated in the cartilage and other connective tissues in the body.

Chondroitin Sulfate is a mucopolysaccharide that contains a mixture of intact or partially-hydrolyzed glycosamino glycan. It is a major structural component of cartilage and provides a matrix upon which collagen, the major structural protein of ligaments and tendons, is built. It also adds to the elasticity and resiliency of skin and other connective tissues.

Joint Support (Ultra): Glucosamine + MSM

MSM (Methyl Sulfonyl Methane) is an organic sulfur compound that naturally occurs in the blood and is found in most foods. MSM is an important component in proteins, especially those found in the hair, muscles, connective tissues, joints and skin. MSM also helps alleviate pain and reduce inflammation associated with the various auto-immune disorders. Studies also show that MSM may be effective in the reduction of muscle spasms, increasing blood flow and helping to maintain and repair cartilage.
