Frequently asked questions
Q. What is the importance of Glucosamine in joint health?
A. Glucosamine is a natural compound the body uses to help rebuild and replace cartilage found in every joint,
destroyed by normal wear and tear or as a result of aging. Cartilage, a natural connective substance that
cushions joints and acts as a shock absorber between the bones that make up the joint, is worn away through
use or injury. However, as we age, or as the result of injury of the cartilage or joint tissue, our ability to provide
Glucosamine declines, so supplementation may become an important option. Clinical studies show that 1500mg
Glucosamine sulfate taken daily can help repair joint damage and improve joint mobility and lubrication.
Q. What is Dimethyl Sulfone and OptiMSM®?
A. Dimethyl Sulfone is an organic bioavailable source of sulfur, an essential element found in nerves, muscles, skin and hair and is needed every day for healthy joints. Sulfur is a key mineral to support the structure of connective tissues, including cartilage, bone, tendons and ligaments. Levels of sulfur in the body decline with age, resulting in symptoms of fatigue, tissue and organ malfunction and an increased susceptibility to disease. In the 1960s, sulfur underwent intense research, some of which resulted in a special patented form of Dimethyl Sulfone of exceptional purity and quality called OptiMSM®. More than 20 years research has confirmed the benefits of OptiMSM® in a wide range of joint and other conditions.
Q. Why is OptiMSM® important for osteoarthritis?
A. Arthritic cartilage contains only about one third of the sulfur content of healthy cartilage. OptiMSM® may be
useful in restoring sulfur levels in damaged cartilage, thereby supporting healthy joint function. Sulfur is needed for the formation of connective tissues, including cartilage, tendons and ligaments.
Q. How does OptiMSM® ease the pain and inflammation associated with joints?
A. OptiMSM® has antioxidant activity that reduces inflammation, provides substantial relief from the symptoms of painful joints associated with arthritis, aids joint mobility and improves blood circulation.
Q. How long before the benefits of Wagner Joint Pain Eze 1000+ OptiMSM® are experienced?
A. This will depend upon the extent of cartilage loss or degeneration. Cartilage repair can be a slow process, so
allow 2-12 weeks for real benefits.
Q. How long do I need to keep taking this product?
A. When improvement is noted, the dose may be reduced. However, cartilage must be constantly replaced and,
if insufficient Glucosamine is available to the joints, the symptoms may return, requiring long-term supplementation.
Q. What is the importance of antioxidants in this formula?
A. The antioxidant joint co-factors of Zinc, Selenium and Manganese help to protect joints against free radical damage, and Boron and Copper are involved in connective tissue formation and healthy bone metabolism.
Q. I am allergic to sulfur drugs, will Wagner Joint products cause any reactions?
A. Many individuals with allergies to sulfur containing medications or to sulfites, which are additives in food, do
not experience problems taking OptiMSM®, Glucosamine Sulfate or Chondroitin Sulfate.
