As the days get shorter and the weather gets colder, many are preparing for the joy and camaraderie of the holiday season. For most of us, the season brings beloved memories of the smell of rain and the warmth of a well-built fire. But for many, the temperature brings stiffness, aches, and pains, especially the falling temperatures of winter.
I have three supplements that I really like to recommend for joint health.
- The first supplement is Glucosamine Synergy by Standard Process. It has glucosamine and other co-factors that really help improve joint health
- The second supplement is vitamin D. Vitamin D helps to make sure that the calcium that you’re eating goes into the bones instead of into your tissues.
- The third supplement is collagen. Collagen is fantastic for all of your connective tissues, including your joints. And as an added benefit, you will notice that your nails and hair, and skin all look better, too.
Glucosamine Synergy®
Glucosamine Synergy combines glucosamine, Boswellia serrata, and manganese to help maintain healthy joint function.*
- Maintains healthy connective tissue
- Supports the body’s normal connective tissue repair process
- Supports joint health
- Contains many of the same ingredients as Ligaplex II, with the added benefit of glucosamine and Boswellia for relieving discomfort in the affected areas after strenuous exercise*
- Excellent source of manganese
Vitamin D + K2
Supports healthy bones and muscles, as well as the cardiovascular and immune systems*
Vitamin D + K2 Liquid is a convenient way to supplement with both vitamins D and K2, which offer greater support for bones and the immune and cardiovascular systems together than either does individually.*
Collagen
- Maintains healthy hair
- Promotes healthy skin and nails
- Supports joint health

Just because colder temperatures are here doesn’t mean they should stop you from living a healthy and productive lifestyle.❄️
