SierraSil Joint Formula - Supports Joint Health and Mobility

90 Capsules (30 Day Supply)

Joint Formula is comprised of SierraSil®, a unique, fast-acting, and powerful mineral complex that promotes joint mobility, flexibility and active lifestyles.

SierraSil is a naturally-occurring mineral complex comprised of many trace minerals some of which include: calcium, magnesium, iron, manganese, copper, zinc, selenium, chromium, molybdenum and phosphorous. Some of the minerals in SierraSil are set in a clay foundation and are unabsorbable by the body. As they pass through the system they attract toxins, heavy metals, viruses and bacteria which are soaked up in the porous surface and eliminated from the body. SierraSil has been shown to have a chelating effect.

SierraSil® Dosage Guidelines
For best results take the SierraSil® capsules or powder with only water, together (at one time) and away from food. Food or other beverages such as coffee, tea, juice or milk should be taken at least 30 minutes before, or 2 hours after SierraSil®. Medications and other supplements should be taken at a different time of the day, 3 - 4 hours before or after SierraSil®. SierraSil® has detoxifying properties due to its rich clay mineral composition therefore it is strongly recommended to increase your intake of water to a minimum of 8 glasses per day. Increased water intake assists the body in flushing out toxins and heavy metals that are eliminated out of the body when using SierraSil®. The serving size is based on a body weight of 70 kg (154 lbs). Please refer to the chart below to find your weight and the corresponding number of capsules to take.

* Special conditions: A loading dose can be taken for first time users and those who have been suffering for decades. A loading dose is double the recommended daily serving size and can be taken for the first month. Athletes and active adults participating in high intensity exercise can take SierraSil® 1 to 3 hours before the activity to aid endurance and recovery while reducing post exercise stiffness.

SierraSil® Topical Spray:
The topical spray works quickly to relieve minor aches and pains. Apply topically to the affected area. Avoid use with sunscreen.

SierraSil® Topical Spray Spa:

Clinical Studies

SierraSil has been subjected to a rigorous level of testing and analysis. From these extensive assessments, experts agree that SierraSil is safe and effective in rapidly promoting joint mobility and flexibility.

1. HUMAN CLINICAL STUDY

A multi-center, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study of more than 100 osteoarthritis patients was conducted at four different treatment levels (three with SierraSil, one with placebo). This study was published in the Journal of Inflammation, a peer-reviewed journal that focuses on inflammatory conditions.

RESULTS: This study provides clear evidence that SierraSil, at high and low doses, provides relief of the symptoms of osteoarthritis within two weeks of therapy.

2. MECHANISM OF ACTION STUDY

This test was undertaken to determine how SierraSil worked on human cartilage in-vitro. The test demonstrated that SierraSil prevented the breakdown of cartilage by 68 to 73%, measured by the reduced amount of degraded cartilage debris, as glycosaminoglycans (GAG) release.

RESULTS: SierraSil appears to be an effective anti-inflammatory agent in the treatment of joint pain. These benefits are likely due to suppression of gene expression.

3. HUMAN PILOT STUDY

SierraSil was tested to determine if it safely provided significant improvements to pain, stiffness and inflammation in patients with previously diagnosed osteoarthritis of the knee.

RESULTS: 100% of the patients had a positive response and a reduction or elimination of their symptoms of osteoarthritis of their knees within one week of treatment. There were no reported undesirable side effects.

4. DISSOLUTION TEST (BIOACCESSIBILITY)

A sample of SierraSil was tested to determine the bioaccessibility of minerals.

RESULTS: The bioaccessibility of aluminum, lead and iron was found to be very low.

5. SUB-ACUTE ORAL TOXICITY STUDY

A daily dose of SierraSil up to 1,000 mg/kg (35 times the recommended dosage) for a period of 90 days was tested.

RESULTS: SierraSil did not cause any adverse responses at the highest level taken.
