Description

Joint Solutions with HA™ provides an outstanding nutritional formula for obtaining and maintaining healthy joints and other connective tissue, such as the skin. Each capsule contains BioCell Collagen II®, a highly effective ingredient in maintaining joint health. BioCell Collagen Type II is an aminoglycoprotein— the connective tissue or superstructure of the body and the glue that holds all cells, organs and structures in place.

Hyaluronic Acid, a protein found in the body, binds water and lubricates the connective tissue and movable body parts such as joints and muscles. HA assists in binding collagen to cells to protect moving tissues and maintain joint function. Collagen is another natural protein and is essential for youthful tissues, muscles, tendons, and joints. BioCell Collagen II, with its full range of aminoglycoproteins, HA and Chondroitin, gives cartilage and other connective tissue their remarkable shock absorbing properties.

As we age, our supply of collagen and HA diminishes and we increase our chances of joint damage and pain. Research shows that we produce dramatically reduced amounts of collagen and HA after age 30, which leads to rapid aging and deterioration, along with joint pain, inflammation, and loss of elasticity and moisture.

Ingredients

Ingredient Benefit
Biocell Collagen II® A unique Collagen II product, rich in aminoglycoproteins, Hyaluronic Acid and Chondroitin Sulfate.
Pomegranate
Extract This powerful natural antioxidant is anti-arthritic and promotes cartilage repair.
5-LOXIN® This special concentrated form of Boswellia Extract is an anti-inflammatory 5 times more potent than many Boswellia extracts on the market today.
Curcumin The major antioxidant found in Turmeric, and a potent anti-inflammatory and pain inhibitor.
Glucosamine Sulfate and MSM Glucosamine provides the building blocks of joint and skin tissue and MSM provides bioavailable sulfur, both essential for joint health and well being.
BioPerine® Activates a metabolic process that selectively provides a more efficient mode of nutrient transportation in the blood and assists in the absorption of all ingredients.

Usage

For an average dose, take one to two capsules at two separate times per day, for a total of three capsules a day with a meal or snack. Do not take this supplement on an empty stomach. Three capsules per day is an average, typical dose, but with your health care provider's permission, you may take up to 6 capsules per day.


Most people obtain maximum benefit by taking one capsule in the morning and two capsules in the evening. Taking the supplements at two different times during the day allows for optimal absorption. During the night the fluids in the body go back into the cartilage and the body can feel very stiff in the morning, so taking Joint Solutions with HA with your evening meal (or fairly soon thereafter) helps to reduce the pain experienced with fluid redistribution.

Common Questions

Q: I’ve heard that some people take Joint Solutions with HA even though they don’t have joint pain or stiffness.
What is the benefit for people without these symptoms?
A: Many people take a pro‐active approach to health and beauty, believing that good nutrition and supplementation can protect against unnecessary degeneration. If you are active, play sports, or exercise regularly, placing stress and strain on your joints, consult your doctor regarding the possible benefits of taking the Joint Solutions with HA supplement. Additionally, many people experience improvement in the appearance, moisture and elasticity of their skin when taking this supplement regularly. So another reason for taking Joint Solutions with HA is for the added benefit of looking more healthy and youthful.

Q: My children are very active in sports. Should they take Joint Solutions with HA?
A: This supplement is generally safe for anyone 12 years or older. With their doctor’s approval, children ages 12 and older may take this supplement to provide great nutrition for the growth and protection of their joints.

Q: Should I try your product even if I tried other products but had no noticeable results?
A: Joint Solutions with HA is a unique and powerful formula that is often extremely effective for people who have not had good results with other similar products. Please try it for a few months to allow it opportunity to benefit your body. Hopefully, you will feel results much sooner, possibly within a few weeks. True Essentials’ joint solutions product is a unique formula that contains the common ingredients found in other products, but it also contains several additional ingredients that the others lack. Our unique combination of nutrients works in synergy to provide a superior benefit. While we cannot guarantee your particular results, we can confidently tell you that many people have experienced great relief through consistent use of this product.

Q: How long will it be until I notice a difference from using this product?
A: When used regularly at the recommended dosage, people often experience reduced pain or stiffness and an improved appearance of the skin within 2 to 4 months. Some people notice benefits as early as a few days or 2 to 3 weeks.

Q: Is Joint Solutions with HA helpful for someone with arthritis?
A: Much of what we experience in joint pain is the result of arthritis. In fact, arthritis is defined as inflammation of a joint or joints. Nutrition that supports healthy joints and reduces inflammation in our joints can help relieve arthritis stiffness and pain, depending on the type of arthritis. We suggest that you discuss your arthritis with your health care provider to make sure that none of the supplements interfere with any medications you are taking and to have them recommend a program of diet, exercise and supplements appropriate for your particular arthritis. True Essentials has 3 products that may help with the symptoms of arthritis. The first choice is the Joint Solutions with Hyaluronic Acid (HA). We also recommend Power Antiox and EFA Essentials which are included in the Men’s and Women’s Essential Packs. These supplements will work together to supply your body with complementary nutrition to help reduce inflammation and stiffness.

Q: Why does Joint Solutions with HA have a warning about shellfish?
A: The Joint Solutions with HA label contains a warning regarding shellfish because some people are allergic to shellfish. Glucosamine is derived from the shells of shellfish, so almost every product available that contains glucosamine is a product of shellfish. Glucosamine is an important nutrient that works in combination with the other ingredients included in our Joint Solutions with HA product to provide very effective results for people who use it regularly.

"I've suffered from migraine headaches most of my adult life. After trying many different prescription medications, I was able to minimize the occurances with Celebrex (prescribed by my Neurologist). Celebrex is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug and I used it for several years. After threats of recalling the drug due to slightly increased risks of heart problems, stroke and blood clots, I decided to look for alternatives and stumbled on Joint Solutions with HA. I slowly weaned myself off the Celebrex, replacing it with the Joint Solutions with HA and found the results very encouraging. My final test was to stop the HA (since it is only a supplement) and found my migraines started again. I resumed using the HA and found it to be the resolution. I now still have an occasional migraine, however the same would be true had I continued the Celebrex. The best news is I no longer need to be concerned about the debilitating side effects of a prescribed drug. Thank you True Essentials!" [Note: Consult with your healthcare provider to develop a plan for supplement use and possible substitution if you are taking prescription medications.]

"I was introduced to your True Essentials Joint Solutions with HA last year and began taking them in an effort to address issues I have with my lower back. While it is not a cure, there has been a marked improvement. I have been able to begin walking without my back stiffening up and have been able to resume playing golf occasionally. With my diet and restored ability to exercise I feel I am on the “road” to regaining a more active lifestyle. Thanks a million!"

Alan, Kentucky


"My story is the dramatic results I have had using Joint Solution with HA and CoQ10. My history was knee injury in grade 12 basketball. Surgery 10 years later that the doctor did not do a good job and his comment was a shrug and “I guess you’ll have to have a knee replacement later on in life”!!! Very callous and devastating for me who had always been athletically active. Knee problems for the next 20 years. I was then introduced to another network marketing company called [name withheld] which had health products. The joint vitamins from that company was like a lubricant and my knee was livable—didn’t squeak when I walked anymore. I also used the [name withheld] knee wrap which helped to keep knee replacement at bay. However, a year ago when I had my annual checkup, I mentioned that my knee was in constant pain now so I was put “on a waiting list” for the knee specialist who would do the replacement. Thank goodness for the long waiting list in Canada, a year later I still have not heard from the specialist!!! Meanwhile, I joined Fortune in February and when I finished my [former supplement], I started taking Joint Solutions and CoQ10 in March 2009. In April, I suddenly realized that my knee was not in the same kind of pain it had been. I stopped wearing my knee wrap, and was able to start exercising again—biking being my favorite. On June 7, 2009 I did a bike-a-thon of 50 kilometers for a charity. My family and all that know me are truly amazed by what has happened with my knee.


I am almost 60 and back exercising, have taken off 20 pounds that had accumulated due to not being able to walk or bike due to pain. I cannot say what is going on inside my knee. I still a year later have not got my call from the specialist—waiting list I was told are one to two years!! For me, I say thank goodness or I would have had the surgery and have all the problems that go with that. I can walk and bike and all with little or no pain. I am happy and grateful every morning I wake up, that fortune has come into my life."

Monica, Red Deer, Alberta



“I broke my back in three different places. I have a spinal fusion from L2-TIO. I lost two inches in height and my right leg is now shorter than my left by 1.5-2 inches. I have had constant pain in all my joints, knees, hips above and below the fusion. What I have found amazing is joint, knee, and hip pain has dissipated to a minimum and sometimes gone altogether. I have always tried eating right, but as life can go, we don’t or can’t! That’s why I have been taking supplements since 1992. It hasn’t been until now that I actually feel better mentally and physically. However, can we do about the two inches in height I lost? Seriously, I am a true believer not only with True Essentials, but Fortune Hi-Tech Marketing and Paul Orberson. My life has changed completely, spiritually, mentally, physically, and financially! My mission is to share FHTM to anyone who will listen, to help change their life. Thank you Paul Orberson and God Bless!”

Timothy, Cathedral City, CA



"I started taking Joint Solutions because of problems with my knees. I was in a car accident and my knee cap was broken in two pieces and the bottom and top of it crushed. I continued to take Joint Solutions during my recovery. I feel without a doubt that I am doing so well because of the HA. As a side benefit I had pain from fibromyalgia and suffer no more!!! Thank you for such great products."

Nita, Frazier Park, CA



"At 92, my mother had been suffering with spinal stenosis and chronic pain for about fifteen years. She was having dizziness and numerous falls as a side effect of taking powerful drugs that had been prescribed to alleviate pain, including hydrocodone and darvoset. In addition, she could not walk more than about 100 feet at a time, even with a walker. After checking with her physician, we started her on Joint Solutions with HA. Within a few moths we had been able to completely discontinue the narcotics, using only occasional Extra Strength Tylenol to manage her pain. As a result, the falls stopped and she began walking part way up and down our street. Only near the end of her 95th year did it become necessary to resume minimal dose of hydrocodone because of the progressive nature of her disease. Thanks to Joint Solutions with HA, which she takes regularly, her quality of life, which was drastically improved nearly four years ago, continues to be much better at 96 than 92."

Sherrill, Charlotte, NC



"...I went off the Joint Solutions for a short time, during which I injured my knee with a swollen meniscus. Immediately I went back on them and within five days the swelling was reduced! Awesome!


The protein shakes give me the energy and nutrition I need to teach a 75 minute Spinning Class and an hour weight class, then do 6 hours of personal training- three days a week! The other three days of the week are almost that busy. With the True Essentials, I give my body what it needs. Many of my clients have seen great results from the Protein Shakes, Joint Solutions with HA, Fruits & Vegetable Essentials and the Weight Management Programs! Thank you!"

Geri, Versailles, KY



"Approximately 1 year ago I began having daily pain in my knees, mostly in the early evening. After years of hiking and jogging I thought this was an unfortunate result of years of activity. I have been very skeptical of any stories or testimonies claiming instant results from any health and nutrition supplements until I had one of my own. Literally the next day after taking my first Joint Solutions with HA my knee pain disappeared completely and has never, not once, returned. I am thrilled with the instant results."

Elizabeth, Mooresville, NC



"I spent twenty years, 12 days and 4 hours in the US Army as a “Combat Engineer” (Demolition Mine Warfare). I went in the Army with my left knee being surgically repaired and coupled with running, jumping in and out of vehicles, rappelling from helicopters, cliffs and walls I tore my knees up pretty bad. When I retired from the Army I had to wear knee braces with metal support rods to walk, let alone run without pain. Along came Fortune Hi-Tech Marketing and True Essentials' Joint Solutions with HA. I started taking Joint Solutions everyday and now I run 30 to 50 miles per week without the knee braces. Joint Solutions has been a God send. At 46 I am in the best shape of my life. Thanks for everything True Essentials!"

Richard, Killeen, TX



"For ten years I have been suffering from excess muscle strain in my left arm. Being left handed I drive and use my left arm with the phone as well. Since taking the Joint Solutions the inflammation has gone down. As well the pains in my ankles have disappeared. I am 49 years old in fairly good shape and I know that the Joint Solutions will help me stay that way. Also, my father is 82 years old and has bad knees. He just started taking Joint Solutions and I am anxious to see real improvement in his condition."

Gary, Scarborough, Ontario



"Since I started taking Joint Solutions with HA I have noticed that I don’t ache like I used to. I am a believer! I absolutely love the Women’s Essential Pack. My hair and nails are healthier and growing faster than they have since I was pregnant. My skin is clearer. My digestive system is working better. I just have more energy and feel better altogether!"

Rhonda, Winston-Salem, NC



"Other joint comfort products were doing very little for my arthritic knees, hips and back. Since I started taking joint comfort I have very rarely needed additional prescribed medication to get me through the day. My husband and I have also seen a decreased appetite at meal time with the Appetite Control. I would recommend your True Essentials products to anyone without hesitation."

Patricia, Hilliard, OH



"I have been a massage therapist for 7 years now and I do a lot of deep tissue work using my thumbs and quite a bit of pressure. I began having pain in my thumb and wrist joints and swelling of the tendons and ligaments in my right wrist about 4 months ago. The pain became excruciating and made it very hard for me to massage my clients. I decided to see an orthopedic hand specialist. After an x-ray was performed and no arthritis or fracture was seen, I was diagnosed with a repetitive strain injury. He prescribed anti-inflammatory, hot and cold compresses, rest and a brace to be worn for 6 weeks. I was to return in 3 weeks and if I had no relief, we would talk about surgery. I was determined not to have surgery. However, I could not stop working. I am self-employed and single. So I went through the anti-inflammatory, wore the brace when I wasn’t working, and used heat and ice every night. The pain only got worse. I was taking Aleve every day so that I could continue to massage my clients. I was about ready to give up my massage career but after hearing so many good things from other Fortune Reps about the True Essentials products especially the Joint Solutions, I decided to give it a try. I am so glad I did! After using Joint Solutions for about 6 weeks, I couldn’t believe how much better my thumb and wrist felt and the swelling was gone! There was still some soreness, but not the constant pain I had before. It has made a major difference in my life! I am back to doing 4,5 even 6 massages a day with little or no pain. I haven’t taken any Aleve since I started on Joint Solutions with HA. I would (and have) recommended Joint Solutions to any one with joint, tendon or ligament pain. It has been a life saver for me."

About True Essentials

True Essentials' founder, Paul Orberson, has tremendous interest in and passion for nutrition, health and well-being, which stems from his successful battle with life-threatening cancer and his resulting understanding of the value and vulnerability of our health. Paul brings messages of both encouragement and motivation to others, and he created True Essentials in order to provide others with the benefits of high-quality supplements that are part of a healthful lifestyle.

At True Essentials, we share Paul's vision and strive to support your efforts to obtain and maintain optimal health so that you can enjoy a lifetime of unrestricted activity and wellness. True Essentials' high-quality nutritional supplements are the perfect way to make sure that you receive adequate levels of the vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids, and other nutrients your body needs to stay healthy and avoid premature aging. It is increasingly difficult to obtain the recommended levels of these vital nutrients solely from the foods you eat. True Essentials helps provide an easy and simple solution for your nutritional and weight management needs.


In addition to supporting your overall health and wellness, we take a fresh approach to beauty by providing products to nourish your body in ways that help you look and feel your best.

Whether you suffer from joint pain, experience low energy levels, or are searching for a comprehensive multi-vitamin, True Essentials has the right supplement to fit your needs and improve your quality of life using the best nature has to offer. At True Essentials we are dedicated to your health; and our mission is to help you achieve optimum wellness so that you may enjoy life to its fullest.

The development of new products and formulas is an ongoing process. Staying abreast of scientific and technological advancements, True Essentials strives to provide highly-effective products that meet stringent standards and regulations.



Quality Assurance - Our PhilosophyTrue Essentials products are manufactured in the U.S. using ingredients that have been selected to align with our commitment to high quality products produced to standards of Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP's). Our manufacturers are also certified for Over the Counter (OTC)/Pharmaceutical grade product. The FDA requires extensive record keeping and adherence to strict standards and procedures for the creation of nutritional supplements and OTC products. They visit and audit our manufacturers frequently. Manufacturers must comply with these stringent GMP's. Our products are required to be tested at the time of production for contaminants and microbials, and each of the ingredients is verified for quality prior to use as well. Our manufacturers share our commitment to natural, organic raw materials, high potency extracts and nutrient protection. Our supplements are designed based upon the use of whole foods, herbs, long-life probiotics, and potent plant and fruit extracts.

Our products must conform to FDA Food standards and all ingredients are classified as GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) or as approved by the code of DSHEA 1994. Tablets must conform to standardized USP procedure for disintegration, so they must dissolve within 15 minutes in the stomach. They are tested for this once they are made. Softgels, likewise dissolve in less than 15 minutes in the stomach, and capsules must dissolve in less than 10 minutes. When supplements are taken with food, they normally dissolve even more quickly due to the action of the potent stomach acid. All supplements are tested at the time of production to ensure that they quickly dissolve and can be expected to do so in most people's stomachs, making them as bioavailable and sometimes more bioavailable than liquid supplements due to survival rate into the intestines where they are absorbed.

Some supplements are best provided in non-liquid form because they provide potent, highly concentrated formulas that should not need to be compromised in order to make them taste and smell pleasant. Many powerful and important nutrients, such as herbs and concentrated plant extracts, taste "horrible" so they often must be left out of liquid supplements.

Absorption and bioavailability are very important to us and are vital considerations during product development. Many of our products include synergistic ingredients that enhance the bioavailability and absorption of each other. An example is that several products include BioPerine®, a patented extract of Piper Nigrum (black pepper) that has been shown to improve the bioavailability of curcumin, herbs, vitamins, minerals and pine bark extract. Healthy Aging, provided in the Men's and Women's Essential Packs, includes several nutrients that work together for maximum benefit. Calcium Plus is another great example of a supplement that combines nutrients that would have little benefit if not provided together for the body to absorb and use.

Our best selling product, Joint Solutions with HA, is a shining example of a supplement that needs to be provided in non-liquid form. This supplement has changed many lives in tremendous ways and provides superior results. Other products provide the typical glucosamine/chondroitin/MSM combination, but Joint Solutions with HA™ also includes patented Biocell type II Collagen®, Hyaluronic acid (HA), and natural antioxidants and anti-inflammatories (pomegranate and turmeric and black pepper) that would never have the same results if they were not taken in combination. The nutrients in this supplement are not appealing to drink. In fact, they would be very difficult to drink due to the unpleasant taste and smell of the mixture of sulfur compounds (MSM, Glucosamine Sulfate, Chondroitin Sulfate), turmeric extract (curcumin, used for "curry" flavoring), black pepper, 5-Loxin® (Boswellia serrata), etc. In order to provide maximum benefits, we choose to provide this potent, highly effective formula in a capsule form without compromising it in order to make its taste acceptable.
