Description
Supplement First is an Authorized Retailer for Thorne Research.
- Thorne Research Joint Support Nutrients (Formerly AR-Encap) goes beyond simple glucosamine supplementation. It adds nutrients to provide relief from occasional soreness and stiffness.
- This combines the preeminent joint support ingredient, glucosamine, with other nutrients and botanicals that also support joint health. Glucosamine demonstrates significant joint support, as evidenced by numerous clinical studies. Methyl sulfonyl methane (MSM) also helps support joint integrity and mobility. Bromelain promotes healing after trauma.

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.
