Achy or 'Tin Man' like joints?

One of the biggest complaints of people in their 40s and up in my clinic is about their joints.

And, yes, when you have joint discomfort, it certainly can make it much harder to do the things you love, such as gardening or jobbing. It can make you feel like an “old grandpa” or “old grandma,” even if you’re just in your 40s, 50s, or 60s.

I’m sure you know how they feel, and one easy way to sum it up is like having “TIN MAN JOINTS.”

Because it really is just like the Tin Man from The Wizard of Oz whose creaky joints made life much harder for him.

And it really can feel like a personal prison for you because:

>> Perhaps NOTHING else out there can make you feel “old” as much as joint discomfort can.
>> Exercising and doing other enjoyable and good-for-you things as often as you did when you were young is more difficult.
>> It can disturb sleep, which makes you feel terrible. (If you’ve ever tried to sleep with uncomfortable shoulders you know what I’m talking about!)
>> It often even hurts relationships because you can’t do many things you once did together, including “getting intimate” the same way you used to.

And what makes it EVEN HARDER is the fear it’s all just going to keep getting WORSE. Unfortunately, that’s true… IF you do nothing to address it.

However, the REALLY GOOD NEWS is there’s finally an easy way to address it that most people never realize!

You see, it’s actually 3 factors that lead to activity-related joint discomfort…

…And there are specific nutrients that can help in a very big way

I’m going to show you 3 exact such nutrients, and the best way to get them (use it myself and recommend in my clinic), so you can support healthy and mobile joints in as little as 5 days.

First, though, it’s important you know the TWO BIG PROBLEMS causing such unnecessary discomfort. Because here are the facts:

About 91 million American adults struggle with joint concerns. That’s 43% of all adults!

And the rates of joint issues are higher for women. This is largely because hormonal changes can affect your joints.

So, what exactly causes “Tin Man Joints”?

Well, all the same “negatives” that lead to other health problems can have a negative impact on your joints, such as:

1. Being overweight.
2. Poor diet.
3. Age-related hormone changes.
4. Overuse and misuse of joints.

Now, while it is recommended you work at improving all these areas, if we wait to address them, well, we all know where that waiting leads.

So, again, the great news is there’s now a 3-part-in-one nutrient solution that can quickly help you protect and lubricate your joints.

BEFORE we get to that, you need to know the other big problem causing Tin Man Joints:

Some joint supplements out there are flat-out WORTHLESS.

Worse still, a few bad apples may actually cause HARM.

I know those are bold statements (researched all of them and tried some myself), so here are the 4 specific facts to beware of:

#1. The science surrounding Glucosamine and chondroitin, the most common nutrients in joint supplements, is mixed.

In fact, one well-controlled study showed that supplementation with glucosamine and chondroitin was NO BETTER THAN PLACEBO at reducing joint discomfort.

And what’s more, one meta-analysis -- which is basically a statistical review of multiple studies on a given topic -- concluded that glucosamine, chondroitin and the two in combination did not provide joint comfort relief when compared to placebo

Why would you want to settle for such a hit or miss approach when you don’t need to?

#2. A common practice among some joint supplements is “fairy dusting.” This is when the right ingredient is added to a supplement, but in such an insignificant amount that it won’t help you.

Companies likely do this simply to trick you into buying the product. Remember, the right quantities of the right ingredients matter in a big way!

#3. Some joint supplements may actually cause HARM, because some supplement makers do ZERO independent testing of their products. Furthermore, many contain GMOs and other JUNK.

Now, this all begs the key question…

What WILL help?

Like I said, the VERY good news is that there are specific ingredients that provide powerful support to address the 3 factors that can lead to joint discomfort.

To understand why they work so well, let’s take a bit of a deeper dive into those 3 factors:

1) The Collagen DECLINE

Collagen is the main protein in your cartilage, the spongy tissue that cushions the ends of your bones where joints meet. It protects your bones from grinding against each other.

Due to various “modern lifestyle” factors like the four noted above, this collagen can reduce over time.

In fact, by the time people reach their “middle ages,” healthy bodies often produces less than HALF the collagen they did in youth!

This normal process means decreased cartilage, which in turn means less cushioning, which in turn means… joint discomfort and stiffness, aka Tin Man Joints!

2) The ATTACK of the Enzymes

As we age, enzymes known as MMPs (matrix metalloproteinases) and 5-LOX (5-Lipoxygenase) can run rampant.

While these enzymes have important purpose in the body, if they do run rampant – often due to modern lifestyle factors like those noted above -- this can lead to even more collagen and cartilage reduction!

3) The DRY OUT

Hyaluronic acid is the key component of the body’s joint fluid (a.k.a. “synovial fluid”). It helps reduce friction between bones by providing lubrication. Unfortunately, as cartilage levels decrease, so does both the quantity and quality of this joint fluid.

Okay, you now know what causes joint discomfort, and what to avoid because it may not help and might may even cause harm.

So, what actually has helped me and many of my patients and it guaranteed to help you, too?

It’s called JOINT 33X™.

It comes in a tiny, easy-to-swallow capsule you just take once daily.

And YES, you will experience results you can feel in as little as 5 days!

That’s because Joint 33X provides you the 3 key ingredients to protect and lubricate your joints.

Joint 33X is non-GMO and FREE of anything harmful, and it is independently tested for purity, potency, and safety. Which is something for me personally all supplements need to adhere to.

You truly don’t need to “feel old” and avoid doing things that put the joy in life.

You don’t need to suffer from uncomfortable joints… and your sleep, weight, and relationships don’t need to suffer, either.

Tried all popular back pain treatments but still struggle with pain?

Over 30 years of working as a Physio I have heard this story almost weekly. And there is a good reason why!

The cause of 99% of all back pain conditions I have seen have one thing in common... Muscle Imbalances.

In my previous post I discussed 'muscle imbalances' are almost always the TRUE CAUSE people develop back pain!

These muscle imbalances can create 4 main types of what is known as 'Physical Dysfunctions', one of them is known as the 'Forward Tilted Pelvis' Physical Dysfunction, the most commonly seen.

When I say muscle imbalances, opposing muscle groups are out of balance, meaning one side the muscle group has become dominant versus the opposing muscle group not doing enough work.

The common approach with back pain is getting people to strengthen their core and that should solve their pain...

So why do most people still have pain eventhough they put a lot of work in strengthening their core?

And especially those with 'Forward Tilted pelvis' dysfunction (muscle imbalances specific for this dysfunction) usually tell me it only got worse!!

As a generic approach to strengthening the core, people are told to do lots of PLANK EXERCISES, but...

With a 'Forward Tilted Pelvis' dysfunction one of the muscle groups that is overly dominant are the HIP FLEXORS!

During plank exercises the hip flexors have to work hard to hold the position, thus malking the already dominant hip flexors even more dominant.

With it the structures already under incorrect stress day to day come under even more incorrect stress, thus more pain!

Work on your core but avoid the plank exercises...

BUT you can do the 'reverse plank' as does not involve activity of the HIP FLEXORS!

And keep in mind there are other muscles that are either not working enough or are too dominant. Always start only working on the muscle groups that need to get stronger, then the dominant/tight muscles naturally become less tight.

Good luck and if any questions please ask below or even phone me.
