How Eggshell Membrane Can Help Maintain Healthy Articular Cartilage and Surrounding Synovial TissueEggshell membrane is a unique biological matrix that is composed of major joint constituents, including chondroitin, glucosamine, hyaluronic acid, collagen, and other proteins. NEM® is a patented eggshell membrane preparation that can help to maintain healthy articular cartilage and surrounding synovial tissue by nourishing joints, as well as by supporting a balanced immune response to typical daily wear and tear.* Clinical studies demonstrate that NEM® can help to promote normal joint comfort and flexibility, usually within 10-20 days.* What is Eggshell Membrane? Eggshell membrane is the thin layer of tissue that lines the inner shell of a chicken egg. It’s made up of proteins, including collagen and elastin, which give it strength and flexibility. The membrane also contains vital nutrients, such as chondroitin sulfate and glucosamine, which are important for healthy joints. What are the benefits of taking an Eggshell Membrane supplement? Eggshell membrane supplements have been shown to be effective in reducing joint pain and stiffness associated with osteoarthritis. A 2010 study published in the International Journal of Biological Sciences found that eggshell membrane supplements improved joint comfort and function in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee within seven to 10 days.1 Another study published in 2012 found that eggshell membrane supplements were able to significantly reduce knee pain in patients with osteoarthritis after eight weeks of treatment.2 How does Eggshell Membrane work? The proteins in eggshell membrane—such as collagen and elastin—help to support healthy connective tissues, including tendons, ligaments, and cartilage. The chondroitin sulfate and glucosamine in eggshell membrane are important nutrients for maintaining healthy joints. Chondroitin sulfate helps to keep joints lubricated and protects cartilage from break down. Glucosamine plays a role in the production of proteoglycans—large molecules that help to give cartilage its spongy consistency—and helps to repair damaged cartilage. If you’re looking for a natural way to ease joint pain and stiffness, an eggshell membrane supplement like NEM® may be worth trying. Made up of vital proteins and nutrients needed for healthy joints—including collagen, elastin, chondroitin sulfate, and glucosamine—eggshell membranes have been shown to provide relief from osteoarthritis symptoms in as little as seven to 10 days.1,2 So why not give them a try?
