What is Avoca ASU ®?
Avoca ASU is a vegetarian joint health supplement
that contains non-shellfish glucosamine, NMX1000®♦
avocado/soybean unsaponifiables (ASU), and
OptiMSM®▼ (methylsulfonylmethane). Avoca ASU also
contains decaffeinated green tea extract for antioxidant
health benefits. All ingredients are from non-animal
origin.
What role does glucosamine and ASU play in
Avoca ASU?
The glucosamine in Avoca ASU enhances the
production of cartilage matrix components that keep
cartilage cells healthy and functioning properly. ASU
stands for avocado/soybean unsaponifiables, obtained
from avocados and soybeans and used for joint health.
Studies using cartilage cells have shown that ASU
lowers the expression of several compounds involved
in the process of cartilage breakdown in the joints. ASU
complements the positive effects of the glucosamine in
Avoca ASU. A greater than additive effect on cartilage
cells, known as a “synergistic” effect, was seen using
ASU and glucosamine together.
What is OptiMSM ®▼, and why is it in
Avoca ASU ®?
OptiMSM is a pure form of MSM (methylsulfonylmethane).
MSM provides sulfur which is used for the structural
integrity of joint cartilage.
What should I look for when taking
Avoca ASU?
Avoca ASU provides key components to maintain your
joint health. You should observe gradual changes in your
comfort level. Give yourself time to respond.
Are there any safety concerns with Avoca ASU?
There are no known contraindications or known
interactions between Avoca ASU and any drug or
nutritional supplement. If you have any condition or
allergy that requires medical attention, you should
always consult your physician before taking any drug or
dietary supplement.
