Chef’s Review: Elations Healthier Joints Drink Supplements
Thanks to Twittad and Elations, I was able to try some of Elations new Healthier Joints Drink Supplements containing “glucosamine, chondroitin, & more!” With only 30 calories and 8 carbs per 8 oz. bottle, this yummy drink that comes in cranberry apple and raspberry white grape won’t break your diet.
Elations drink supplements have a nice taste to them. I preferred the cranberry apple over the raspberry white grape but they both were delicious. The cranberry apple had less of a glucosamine, chondroitin taste to it (as I call it) that a lot of the healthy joint drinks tend to have–it’s kind of a bitter zing to it.
My husband sprained his ankle the very night that he had tried his first bottle of Elations. I tease him that if he hadn’t had it he might have broken his ankle! LOL (not scientifically proved just a fun incident) 
“About Joint Health
Joints are made up of bone, cartilage, and synovial fluid. Cartilage acts as a cushion where one bone meets another, and is surrounded by synovial fluid. This fluid is a thick substance whose purpose is to nourish cartilage and to absorb friction, making movement smooth and easy. Without cartilage and synovial fluid, even the smallest movement would be excruciating.Now & for the Future
Joint discomfort is frustrating. It starts off as an annoyance, but as range of motion decreases even running errands can be exhausting. The soreness progresses. As it becomes harder to get around, it becomes easier to opt-out of opportunities because of the discomfort.If your joint discomfort develops into osteoarthritis, you aren’t alone. Nearly 20 million Americans are afflicted with this degenerative joint disease. Even if you’re never given the official arthritis diagnosis, everyday joint health is important.
Even though your joints have put on years of wear and tear, and your body is producing less of cartilage-restoring nutrients, it‚Äôs not too late to start drinking Elations to maintain a healthy, active lifestyle!”
