Want to Beat Inflammation….
Want to Get Rid of Joint Pain and Swelling..CM Plex® Will Help!
Tens of millions of people suffer from joint problems and pain. Joint health is key to wellness. After all, it’s difficult to feel healthy when the very act of walking hurts! Keeping your joints strong, agile, and flexible is a priority for people wanting to live life to its fullest. When joints, which are made up of connective tissue, receive natural, effective support, the difference is amazing.
Now available as both a capsule and a cream, C.M. Plex™ supports joint health with a proprietary blend of cetyl myristate, cetyl myristoleate, and other cetyl esters. These compounds have been shown to help penetrate and hydrate the joints and increase mobility, encouraging a more active lifestyle.*
The cream and capsules work together synergistically.
The cream provides additional moisturizing benefits, while the capsules offer additional ingredients for internalized nutritional support. This is a highly non-greasy penetrating cream with a pleasant odor that is effective for pain relief on joints or muscles that may be sore because of arthritis or injury. It is also beneficial in reducing bruising from injury. It increases mobility of joints and muscles and reduces swelling. This product was also reported in the Journal of Rheumatology as has had double blind studies done showing it’s effectiveness.
This combination has been shown in double blind studies to reduce inflammation, pain and improve mobility in joints where rheumatoid and osteo-arthritis is present. The findings have been published in the Journal of Rheumatology with conclusive results of the benefits on these two conditions are present. Because of the anti-inflammatory action of this product other conditions that are inflammatory in natures will benefit. Inflammation occurs in the body as natural by-product of metabolic actions. When the body cannot detox the inflammation it builds up in all areas of the body and can cause degenerative diseases and pain. This product, it is important to note does not work effectively when the diet contains caffeine, sodas or high quantities of sugar. Sugar and Caffeine increase inflammation and swelling.
It has been shown to be effective in aiding people with conditions such as Fibromyalgia, gout, lupus, irritable bowel diseases and other inflammatory conditions such as injury or surgery.
Research Brief The word joint refers to any of the connections between the body’s more than 200 bones. Joints are classified into three categories according to structure and movability. Cartilaginous joints, in which cartilage joins the bones, can move slightly-for example, the joints connecting the vertebrae and pubic bones. Fibrous joints are immovable, such as the joints between skull segments. Most of the joints in the body are freely moving synovial joints, in which touching bone surfaces are covered by cartilage, connected with ligaments, and lined with synovial membrane. Synovial joints take several forms, including ball and socket, gliding, hinge, pivot, and saddle.
Millions of people lose joint mobility and flexibility at some point in their lives. These problems can prevent full participation in many of life’s daily activities. However, natural nutrients can deliver various benefits, including joint lubrication and smooth joint movement. Vitamin C is vital to the skin’s formation of healthy connective tissue in ligaments and bones. Several other natural supplements have captured significant attention recently as researchers and scientists attempt to find effective ingredients to support joint health.*
FAQs Q: Will C.M. Plex™ lose its effectiveness with continuous use? A: The bones and joints are active structures, constantly creating new tissue and breaking down old. A healthy, varied diet profoundly affects this ongoing process. As with any other component of our nutrition, C.M. Plex™ can assist the body at any and all adult stages in life.*
Q: Can C.M. Plex™ be used by pregnant women or nursing mothers?A: As with many other nutritional supplements, it is not recommended that a pregnant woman or nursing mother use C.M. Plex™.
Q: Has any human research been done on the ingredients contained in CM Plex™? A: Yes. In fact, a human clinical study, presented at a major scientific conference in April 2001, demonstrated remarkable effects.*
Q: What foods are sources of nutrients that support joint health? A: Foods high in vitamin C, such as several fruits and vegetables, are important because vitamin C is vital to the body’s development of connective tissue in ligaments, skin, bones, and blood vessels. The body cannot make its own vitamin C, so absorbing adequate amounts through diet and supplementation is crucial.*

An article published in the Oct. 2009 edition of Nature Reviews: Endocrinology highlights that supplementation with the currently recommended vitamin D levels of 400 IU falls well short of being effective.
The article was written by Dr. Bruce Hollis, a respected researcher that has published numerous articles on vitamin D and its role in cardiovascular disease, cancer, osteoporosis and more. Do any sort of search on vitamin D and chances are good that his name will come up.
Hollis discusses how the current recommendations of 400 IU don’t do anything to increase serum (blood) levels of vitamin D. Vitamin D sufficiency (adequate levels) is defined as having vitamin D levels above 75 nmol/l. In one study, they found that 74% of postmenopausal women had levels lower than 50 nmol/l. Vitamin D levels this low are implicated in a number of diseases in epidemiological studies.
The graph below, taken from the article, shows how vitamin D supplementation below 1,000 IUs/day did not significantly increase serum levels of vitamin D.
To put this in plain English:
When you take vitamin D supplements that provide a daily dose of less than 1,000 IU you are paying for nothing, literally.
B oneMate Plus provides you with 4,000 IU of quality vitamin D3, as well as calcium and other minerals that help the body to utilize and better absorb calcium.
Dosage studies show that it is best to space out your calcium supplementation – as more will be absorbed this way. We recommend that you take BoneMate Plus in the morning and then at night. Bone Mate Plus is FDA Approved

The US Surgeon General reports that half of all women older than 50 will break a bone because of osteoporosis. Up to one in four men will too. And breaking a bone when you’re older is serious. It can lead to immobility, which in turn can lead to isolation, depression and other health problems. More than 20 percent of seniors who break a hip will die within one year. Many of those who survive will need long-term nursing home care.
 Thirty years ago, most people considered osteoporosis and broken bones to be a part of normal aging. That view has changed. Researchers today know a lot about how you can protect your bones throughout your life with nutrition and exercise. And although it’s never too late to start protecting your bones,the best time to begin is while you’re young.
Individuals who consume adequate amounts of calcium and vitamin D throughout life should enjoy better overall bone health for two reasons. First, they are more likely to achieve optimal skeletal mass early in life, and second, they are less likely to lose bone later in life. The net result should be higher bone mass and fewer fractures.
Bone Health and Osteoporosis:
A Report of the Surgeon General
“An estimated 10 million Americans over age 50 have osteoporosis (the most common bone disease), while  another 34 million
are at risk. Each year an estimated 1.5 million people suffer an osteoporotic-related fracture, an event that often leads to a downward
spiral in physical and mental health. In fact, 20 percent of senior citizens who suffer a hip fracture die within 1 year. One out of every
two women over 50 will have an osteoporosis-related fracture in their lifetime, with risk of fracture increasing with age. Due primarily
to the aging of the population and the previous lack of focus on bone health, the number of hip fractures in the United States could
double or even triple by the year 2020.”

 BoneMate® Plus: The Good News for Bone Health
BoneMate Plus is specially formulated to help maintain optimal bone health. BoneMate Plus contains three sources of powerful calcium, plus 4000 IU (International Units) of vitamin D and other essential vitamins, minerals, and key ingredients to maximize absorption and ensure the support of healthy bones, teeth, nerves, heart, muscle tissue, and immune health.
Even the FDA, an organization slow to make recommendations, has said, “Adequate calcium and vitamin D as part of a healthful diet, along with physical activity, may reduce the risk of osteoporosis in later life.”

Vitamin D is Essential
Dietary supplements are the key way to deliver consumers’ vitamin D requirements, according to the latest update from the Harvard Medical School.
The September Harvard Health Publications bulletin stated: “It’s not an issue of food quantity, but rather food quality. Even a low-calorie diet can deliver all the vitamins and minerals you need, with one exception – vitamin D. So plan to take a vitamin D supplement.” |
Two entries in the Unicity Science Blog, maintained by Dr. Tom Cutler, Chief Science Officer and Jared Twitchell, Product Manager discuss vitamin D:
More Support for Vitamin D
Millions of US Children Low in Vitamin D
Recent studies suggest that vitamin D does more than help build strong bones; it may help to prevent hypertension, and some autoimmune diseases.
American Academy of Dermatology Issues Updated Position Statement on Vitamin D
The American Academy of Dermatology recently issued an updated position statement on vitamin D after an updated review of the increasing body of scientific literature on this vitamin and its importance for optimal health.
The Academy continues to recommend that the public obtain vitamin D from nutritional sources and dietary supplements, and not from unprotected exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or indoor tanning devices, as UV radiation is a known risk factor for the development of skin cancer.
The Academy’s position statement on vitamin D now also states that individuals who regularly and properly practice sun protection, such as the daily use of sunscreen on exposed skin or the wearing of sun protective clothing, may be at risk for vitamin D insufficiency. A higher dose of vitamin D may be necessary for these individuals and others with known risk factors for vitamin D insufficiency, such as those with dark skin, the elderly, photosensitive individuals, people with limited sun exposure, obese individuals or those with fat malabsorption. Therefore, the Academy encourages those with concerns about their levels of vitamin D to discuss options for obtaining sufficient dietary or supplementary sources of vitamin D with their physician. |

Osteoporosis is absolutely devastating to the elderly. We all have our own ideas about whether or not we are having enough nutrition to keep our bones in good shape. If we are fortunate enough to live to senior years we want to be fit enough to enjoy the free time. We don’t want to be worrying abouth falling. You often see the elderly stepping gingerly face down afraid of slipping as they know that breaking a bone will end their freedom. The fact is, that this fear, and looking downward most often causes a person to fall. You will go in the direction you are looking. You should be walking straight and looking ahead for correct balance.
The result of being bedridden causes a person to become weaker and more susceptible to infections. Your immune system is also weakened inviting dangerous diseases and infections. Less exercise causes your arteries to become less elastic and more prone to infections.
I have to tell you, I know all this, but like many of us, did not worry too much about it, invincible, you know, not worried about the future, until my kids jokingly made a comment. “Mom, did you know that if you are less than 4′ 9″ that you are legally required to be in a child restraint seat ? “, and oh how they laughed at me. Little scabs! They are all taller than their mother. I am just cracking 5′!
That really got me thinking, you know- they EXPECT that I am going to get shorter! They take it as a “Fact of Life.” Well, I take no more chances. I have started a regular regiment of Bone Mate along with my other supplementation to keep up the bone density! Dr. Oz also recommends 1,200 mg of Vitamin C a day, but cautions that going over 2,500 mg may do the opposite ad increase osteoarthritis and DNA abnormalities. There are 120 mg of Vitamin C in the daily recommended dose of Bone Mate.
Bone is one thing in our body that does regenerate. However it may take months to do so. After the age of 35 your bones stop growing, and the bone density decreases, holes in the bone get larger. Osteoporosis is a result of significant decreases in bone density.
