Avocado-soybean unsaponifiables reduce osteoarthritis pain

Better Than NSAIDs for Arthritis Pain?

Creak… pop… grind… ouch.

Friend, if you suffer from the painful wear-and-tear joint condition known as osteoarthritis (OA), you know exactly what I’m talking about.

Because when the cartilage between your joints wears away, it’s difficult – or downright impossible – to sit, stand, move, or even get out of bed.

That’s why many seniors with OA slowly lose their independence – and their quality of life.

Of course, the mainstream’s go-to solution is painkillers… but long-term use can be deadly.

Luckily, a “hidden” compound with a hard-to-pronounce name can help provide relief.

And as multiple studies show, it can naturally plunge pain, restore mobility, and slow the progression of this life-wrecking disease.

GROWING Pains

More than 32.5 million Americans suffer daily – and nightly – from the stiffness, pain, and mobility loss of OA.

It targets the cartilage that cushions weight-bearing joints, especially your knees, hips, and lower spine…

And continues to get WORSE over time.

Age is a key risk factor, so OA hits us oldsters HARD — in fact, nearly three-quarters of all sufferers are over 55.

If you’re one of them, you may be taking non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for relief.

Problem is, while over-the-counter (OTC) drugs like ibuprofen and acetaminophen can temporarily take the edge off… they kill THOUSANDS of patients each year.

But research revealed that a plant-based compound that flies under the radar could lube up your creaky joints… helping you to MOVE easier and ultimately FEEL better.

What is it? Avocado-soybean unsaponifiables (ASU).

As its name suggests, ASU is a vegetable extract made from the fruits and seeds of avocados and soybean oil.

Combining them creates a potent anti-inflammatory that’s been shown to reduce OA pain and stiffness – and even SLOW the progression of this mobility-stealing condition.

Studies have found that ASU works in multiple ways to help provide relief to OA sufferers, including:

Blocking inflammatory cells and proteins that destroy joint cartilage
Preventing deterioration of synovial cells, which line the joints
Helping regenerate normal connective tissue

One study showed that women with OA reported less pain and a better quality of life after using ASU… and even reduced or stopped using painkillers, including NSAIDs.

And a large three-year study found that ASU significantly SLOWED the progression of hip OA, compared to placebo.

Pain, Pain, Go Away

Friend, even though the mainstream makes TONS of money off OA…

It’s encouraging that some health experts are starting to promote safe and natural options.

That includes the Arthritis Foundation, which promotes SU as an effective option for OA sufferers, without causing side effects.

ASU is available as OTC tablets or capsules, under the brand name Piascledine.

The recommended daily dose is 300 mg, taken with food and water.

For even more support, consider taking ASU with glucosamine chondroitin (GC) – commonly used in Europe to treat OA.

GC is comprised of two natural compounds found in healthy cartilage, and combining it with ASU can further reduce pain and help restore mobility.

As always, speak to your doctor before taking any new supplements.
