Are you suffering from a lack of flexibility and mobility in your joints? Common reasons for joint pain include osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, and rheumatoid arthritis; although they’re often associated with older individuals, people of all ages are susceptible to them.Bursitis, an acute or chronic type of inflammation between a tendon and either skin or bone, can also be to blame.

Sore knees, hips, elbows, or other body parts can interfere with your daily life: the discomfort prevents many sufferers from participating in enjoyable activities. Fortunately, supplements are available to provide the nutrients your body needs to heal itself.

Glucosamine is the most famous joint support compound; it’s contained in the fluid around your joints, and too little of it causes their cartilage to become thin. Cartilage that’s been broken down may result in greater friction and stiffness.

Most supplements on the market stop there. Not AR-Encap: Thorne Research has added other botanicals and nutrients that work to support your joints. Methyl sulfonyl methane (also known as MSM) contains sulfur, which the body needs to produce cartilage. Along with curcumin phytosome, it combines with glucosamine to increase its effectiveness. Curcumin comes from turmeric, a spice used in most Indian dishes. If you’re not a fan of spicy foods, you may not be getting enough of this anti-inflammatory compound.

Also supporting the body’s normal inflammatory response is the botanical boswellia, which blocks the activity of harmful lipoxygenase enzymes. According to animal studies, devil’s claw extract has found to support the joints; therefore, it has also been included in this capsule.

Although AR-Encap capsules are promoted as vegetarian, vegans should be aware that the glucosamine in them has been derived from shellfish. They are also free of gluten, dairy, eggs, yeast, and wheat. Finally, this fully natural supplement has no artificial sweeteners, flavors, or colors.

You should take eight of these capsules per day, unless your doctor prescribes otherwise. This bottle will last about one month for the average person.

INTERACTIONS/CONTRAINDICATIONS Curcumin has been shown to reduce the therapeutic efficacy of cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan) in animal studies. In vitro research revealed that curcumin decreased camptothecin-induced death of cultured breast cancer cells. Curcumin might also interfere with the absorption and efficacy of the chemotherapy drug irinotecan, used to treat colon cancer. The concurrent use of curcumin with these agents should be avoided.

Really Works
By Brad from New Jersey on December 31, 2011
My brother gave me 2 bottles of AR-Encap for my knees. My knees and back felt good as new in a couple of weeks. When I ran out I didn't get any more and started using another brand. Big mistake, my knees were cracking all the time and my back was killing me. Been on it for about 10 daysnow and I have notice a great improvement.
Pros:
Eveything
Cons:
NONE

I would recommend this item to a friend.

ArEncap By Thorne Research
By Cindy from Mpls. MN on August 14, 2011
I noticed a improvement over my pain and a improvement of overall mobility. The most important thing I felt was when I quit taking tAR-Encap because I ran out. The pain and loss of movement was apparent. It improved when I resumed the product
Cons:
I aways question why something that helps has to cost so much.

I would recommend this item to a friend.

AR-Encap Capsules
By janice wagner from washington on May 15, 2011
I've been taking this product for 10 years and so far it's worked brilliantly on my osteoarthritis. I recommend it to everyone with osteoarthritis realizing that it won't work for all, but they should at least give it a two month try...and make sure they don't miss a day. Important to have consistancy with arthritis.

I would recommend this item to a friend.

A great price for Thorne!
By Tamera from Portland, Oregon on April 12, 2011
My chiropractor recommended glucosanine and MSM for a neck injury. I was delighted to find that AR-Encap had these things for joint health AND curcumin, devil's claw, and indian frankincense for pain and inflammation. The don't upset my stomach or have any other side effects. I am very pleased with this product!

I would recommend this item to a friend.

AR-Encaps by Thorne - Great Product
By Priscilla from Seattle on March 31, 2011
I've been taking AR-Encaps by Thorne for about 5 weeks and noticed a good improvement in my arthritis pain. I was thinking about looking into surgery before this. I had immediate results. All other anti-inflammatories upset my stomach. These actually help your stomach and are natural with no side effects. I would totally recommend them. They are expensive but worth every penny. Pure Formula has the best price I could find on the internet.

I would recommend this item to a friend.
