Eggshell membranes are a relatively new addition to the range of substances that help in joint cartelistic problems.
Rosehip is also said to relieve joint pain and it is the galactolipid GOPO, a substance found in rosehip that has an anti-inflammatory action that helps relieve the pain. GOPO consists of fatty acids and sugars Locally, the rosehip powder works because the white blood cells cannot rush as fast to the inflammation and thus reduce swelling and aches. This makes you more mobile and less achy.
