Keep
Joints Feeling Young with EverFlex!
EverFlex contains nutrients that help lubricate joints
and make cartilage more shock absorbent. It
can help joints maintain flexibility and strength.
As
we age, our joints become more and more important
to our good health. Joint health, or the lack thereof,
contributes to absenteeism, difficulty in walking, in
getting dressed and even in getting in and out of the
bathtub. The annual cost in lost wages and medical
expenses due to the normal aging process is
approximately $60–80 billion.
NSP EverFlex focuses on benefiting the structural
system. It offers the advantages of glucosamine,
chondroitin and MSM combined with devil’s
claw herb in one convenient tablet.
•
Glucosamine. Studies suggest that the long-term
use of glucosamine helps lubricate joints by
replenishing cartilage and synovial fluid, improving a
joint’s shock-absorbing properties.
• Chondroitin sulfate attracts fluid and draws
nutrients into the cartilage, making the cartilage more
shock absorbent. It also promotes growth and normal
tissue generation and helps keep enzymes in balance.
• Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) is present in many
fresh foods, but it is easily destroyed during cooking,
processing and in long-term storage. Supplementing with
this nutrient ensures an adequate supply. MSM contains
about 35 percent sulfur by weight. Sulfur is an
important structural component of the connective tissue
that joins muscle to bone.
• Devil’s claw has long been used to support joint
health and to maintain comfort due to its remarkable
properties. It has been tested favorably against other
compounds in its support of joints.
Numerous studies demonstrate the effectiveness of these
ingredients in protecting connective tissues and
maintaining the integrity and mobility of joints. Keep
your joints feeling young and supple—try EverFlex today! ,

Which Calcium Is Right for
You?
By Courtney Hammond
The body contains more
calcium than it does any other mineral. Calcium is
vital to the health and strength of bones, teeth and
muscles. Calcium also plays an essential role in blood
clotting, nerve conduction and many cellular functions.
Studies show that calcium supplementation can help
protect your healthy bones.
Calcium Absorption
How much calcium you ingest is not as important as how
much calcium you absorb. Calcium is notoriously
difficult to absorb. That’s why it is important to
know what things may affect the calcium you absorb and to
choose a calcium supplement that optimizes absorption.
Factors in calcium absorption:
- Age. Children
absorb up to 60 percent of dietary calcium. By young
adulthood, absorption rates drop to 20–40
percent. Adult absorption rates can be even lower.
- Calcium salts.
Supplemental calcium comes in the form of calcium salts,
such as calcium phosphate, calcium lactate, etc. Calcium
salts have different absorption rates. For example,
calcium lactate is about 32 percent absorbed while
calcium citrate is approximately 30 percent absorbed. By
combining a number of different calcium salts in
a supplement, absorption can be optimized.
- Magnesium.
Calcium depends on magnesium for proper assimilation
in the body. The ideal ratio of magnesium to calcium is
1:2. A 1:1 ratio may be helpful for those with
special magnesium needs, such as mature women.
- Vitamin D.
Vitamin D enhances calcium absorption.
- pH balance.
Optimal pH balance increases calcium absorption.
-
Pregnancy/Lactation. These periods of greater
nutritional needs are also accompanied with
significantly greater absorption of all nutrients.

Calcium Magnesium,
Synerpro
Since each
depends on the other for
proper assimilation, this is
a
perfect combination for
adults that provides both of these minerals in an
ideal ratio.
It contains calcium
phosphate and calcium amino acid chelate along with
magnesium in a 2:1 ratio, perfect for calcium absorption
and bone mineralization.

Skeletal Strength®—A Great
Choice for Women
Women have special calcium
and magnesium needs. RDIs
for pregnant or lactating
women are high, and as women
approach menopause, their
need to maintain bone
density increases. Skeletal
Strength is a perfect choice
for women with these special
needs. It contains calcium
and magnesium at a 1:1 ratio
to meet women’s increased
need for magnesium (to
offset occasional
constipation, minor
menstrual cramping, muscle
aches following exercise).
Skeletal Strength also
contains digestive aids and
other vitamins and minerals
to improve mineral
absorption. This product
also benefits those who
desire extra magnesium
intake and added support for
the entire structural
system, including ligaments
and tendons. Learn

Coral Calcium
—For Balanced pH
Coral Calcium is a great
product for those who need
to maintain balance in their
pH levels. With a natural pH
level of 10–11, Coral
Calcium has an alkalizing
effect on the body and will
offset acidity. Creating a
more balanced pH spares the
calcium already in the
bones, meaning the body
doesn’t have to pull calcium
from the bones to offset
acidity. Learn

Herbal CA
Herbal Calcium: Many cases of
muscle cramping, periodontal disease, osteoporosis and
even certain nervous disorders are partly due to a
shortage of vitamins and minerals. When you want healthy
bones (especially joints), teeth, muscles and nerves, turn
to NSP’s Herbal CA. Every herb in this unique formula
brings you natural forms of the bioavailable minerals you
need.

Fibralgia
Researchers have found that
many people respond to supplements containing malic acid and
magnesium.
Malic acid, found naturally in high concentrations
in apples and other fruits and vegetables, provides
magnesium, which plays in important role in
producing energy for the cells. Magnesium is used
daily to help with the absorption of several
vitamins and minerals, to promote bone strength and
to regulate nerve impulses.

Glucosamine
Glucosamine occurs naturally in the
body’s joints and cartilage and plays a key role in
the structural system. As we age, our bodies become
less efficient at manufacturing the elements
necessary for healthy joint structure. Glucosamine
works with nutrients like chondroitin to stimulate
rebuilding and maintenance of cartilage.
