Alleviate occasional joint pain and improve mobility with a newly developed form of curcumin called Meriva® Put an end to achy joints and muscles with this new and improved supplement that contains Meriva—a highly effective pain reducer that Dr. Whitaker uses to alleviate his own back pain. Forward Nutrition has developed new and improved Joint & Muscle Comfort Plus with a powerful combination of ingredients to alleviate joint pain and improve mobility. This new formula includes Univestin®, bromelain, and now Meriva—natural compounds that help control the enzymes that cause pain in the first place and promote a normal inflammatory response to soothe joint and muscle pain quickly and safely. As with all of Dr. Whitaker’s recommendations, the ingredients in Joint & Muscle Comfort Plus are backed by clinical studies showing successful results, so you can depend on it for real results. Take Joint & Muscle Comfort Plus for pain relief from occasional “flare ups” or joint and muscle aches and pain after physical exertion. Joint & Muscle Comfort Plus now gives you:
- Meriva—a highly bioavailable, pain-reducing curcumin. Backed by significant research, Meriva has some soon-to-be-published studies that demonstrate that just 225 mg of Meriva is equivalent to 2,000 mg of regular curcumin. That‘s eight times the potency of regular curcumin, which means exceptional relief.
- Univestin—this patented, natural blend of two standardized herbal extracts inhibits the COX-1, COX-2, and 5-LO enzymes to promote joint health and ease muscle aches. In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, Univestin was found to be more effective than the placebo and mainstream alternative for relieving joint pain and reducing joint stiffness.
- Bromelain and Papain—increase blood flow to your joints and muscle tissues for a normal inflammatory response; also sweep away metabolic debris from your bloodstream which in turn keeps your joints better lubricated for full range of motion and decreased aches and pains.
- Rutin—a highly active antioxidant that’s believed to strengthen capillary walls. This protects your joint tissues from oxidative stress and the effects of aging.

Reviewed by njwarriorprincess (Posted on 5/11/11)Rating My mother got Joint & Muscle Comfort + for a friend who stopped using it, so she gave the 2 bottles left to me. I started taking it for chronic pain from fibromyalgia and experienced noticeable relief that I hadn't thought possible. But after an auto accident in Dec. '09 that left me with nerve damage, cervical disk damage & pressure on my spinal cord, the level of pain went through the roof...and "my" formula still saves the day! I still need prescription meds, but they do not work effectively unless I'm taking this. Although ordering refills is a "stretch" since I can no longer work, THIS PRODUCT IS WORTH EVERY CENT. Suffering from fibromyalgia or joint pain? - Get this for yourself, you will be so glad you did.
