Joint Support

Our broadest wellbeing collection at 499 products - glucosamine, collagen, omega-3, magnesium, turmeric and vitamin and mineral formulas, in capsules, tablets, liquids, powders, sprays and topical gels. Brands include Viridian, Biocare, Solgar, Natures Aid, Lamberts, HealthAid and Balanced.

Which nutrients have approved claims?

Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of cartilage and bones. Manganese contributes to the normal formation of connective tissue and to the maintenance of normal bones. Copper contributes to the maintenance of normal connective tissues. Vitamin D and calcium contribute to the maintenance of normal bones, and vitamin D also contributes to the maintenance of normal muscle function.

What about glucosamine and turmeric?

Both are widely bought and neither carries an authorised health claim in Great Britain, so you will not see us make one. Glucosamine is usually sold as the sulphate or hydrochloride salt, often alongside chondroitin and MSM. Most glucosamine is shellfish-derived; vegetarian and vegan versions are made by fermentation, and we stock those too if shellfish is an issue.

Capsules, powders or topical?

We stock 130 capsules, 72 tablets, 16 liquids, 9 powders, 4 sprays and 3 creams or gels. Serving sizes for glucosamine and collagen are large, which is why powders are common - a full glucosamine dose can be three or four tablets. Topical products are applied to the skin rather than taken by mouth.

Worth saying plainly

Joint pain has many causes and some of them need diagnosing rather than supplementing. If pain is new, worsening, or accompanied by swelling, heat or stiffness that does not settle, see your GP. If you take blood-thinning medication, check before starting turmeric or omega-3.

Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.

Glucosamine is the long-standing one and turns up in most of the complexes. Turmeric and curcumin appear in Lifeplan's Joint Action. GOPO is a rosehip preparation and has its own following. Optima's gel is topical rather than swallowed.

There is no permitted health claim for glucosamine, so we are not going to make one. Vitamin C's contribution to normal collagen formation is real and is why it appears in several of these formulations.

They are different propositions. Capsules are taken daily and over months. A gel is applied where you want it and is a more immediate, local thing – which is why people often end up with both rather than choosing.

Gels are also the practical option for anyone already taking a long list of tablets, or who would rather not add another.

These are taken over months, not days. If you try something for a fortnight and stop, you have not really tested it, and anyone selling you a quick result is not being honest.

If you have a diagnosed joint condition, that belongs with your GP – and if you take anticoagulant medication, ask before starting turmeric or curcumin at supplement strength. Glucosamine is often shellfish-derived, so check if you have an allergy.

FAQ

How long before a joint supplement does anything?

Months rather than weeks. A fortnight is not a fair test of any of these.

Is glucosamine suitable if I have a shellfish allergy?

Often not – much glucosamine is shellfish derived. Check the individual product, as vegetarian versions exist.

Capsules or gel?

They do different things. Capsules are a daily, long-term approach; a gel is applied locally. Many people use both.

Can I take turmeric with blood thinning medication?

Ask your GP or pharmacist first. Supplement-strength turmeric is a different matter from cooking with the spice.
