Jocko Joint Warfare Reviews

Jock Fuel Joint Warfare Ingredients

Glucosamine HCL 750mg - In terms of Glucosamine HCL, the stronger version of glucosamine sulphate, this is within the effective range and is a good inclusion for Jocko joint warfare. It's the backbone of a lot of good joint supplements and has been shown to improve joint mobility in multiple clinical trials. In some countries it's even prescribed as a first port of call for joint inflammation related conditions like osteoarthritis.

MSM 500mg - We like MSM as a supplement for joint pain, the problem is that the amount that you need for it to work makes it generally unsuitable for a combined supplement designed to alleviate joint pain. It's been proven to be very effective, but the effective range is 3-6 grams. [3,6] That's 6-12 times more than we've got here, meaning that it's not going to do much to support joint health.

A lot of other supplements tend to include a token amount as the supplement has been heavily marketed, but this amount isn't going to do much to relieve pain, and considering how much capsule space it's taken up. The larger issue with this is that curcumin and boswellic acid are also underdosed, although only slightly, so removing this ingredient which is in a completely ineffective dose, could have made space to make both of those work better.

Turmeric (95% curcumin) 300mg - Curcumin needs to be dosed at almost double what's in here to effectively reduce joint pain. If it was dosed at 500mg or above, [2,7] then it's a great ingredient that's been shown to work as effectively as NSAIDs in multiple studies which are not natural and require a prescription. As far as the jocko joint warfare ingredients go this is another near miss, which we wouldn't expect from a supplement at this price point. And considering our number 1 rated joint supplements (FlexAgain) get this right, and cost slightly less than jocko joint warfare this is where things start to go wrong for Jocko.

Sea Cucumber 150mg - Sea cucumber contains a lot of chondroitin, around 80% in fact [8] so what we're actually looking at is about 100mg of chondroitin here. Chondroitin has been shown to increase the efficacy of Glucosamine as such it's common in a lot of supplements designed to improve joint discomfort. [9] It won't do anything in isolation, and it's relatively common in a lot cheaper joint supplements.

Boswellic Acid 65% 140mg - What this means is that Jocko Fuel Joint Warfare contains 91mg of Boswellic Acid, the clinically proven dose is actually 100mg, but the odds are that 91mg should work reasonably effectively. Although it's not ideal. Boswellia is a relatively common ingredient in joint pain supplements, and along with the other two effectively dosed ingredients we've covered so far, available in a lot of much cheaper alternatives than Jocko's joint health supplements. The ingredient itself has been shown to reduce joint pain and inflammation in multiple clinical trials. [1]

Quercetin dihydrate 100mg - Quercetin has been shown to improve inflammation in arthritis by suppressing part of your bodies natural inflammation system, cytokines. But, once again we come to the same dosing issue. Generally speaking the effective range for joint pain is 250-1000mg. [10] Whether or not a lower dosage will have any impact on supporting joint health however is unknown, but it's another let down for Jocko Joint Warfare.

Sodium Hyaluronate 20mg - A derivative of hyaluronic acid all the evidence supporting it is when it is injected into the site, not consumed orally. This is quite common with hyaluronic acid supplements, and unfortunately the evidence that it works orally is mixed, as a it is broken down into oligosaccharides in the stomach. Even if some of it survives the stomach however, not nearly as much as 20mg would make it to the cartilage. And seeing as 20mg is the amount that has to be injected into the site by a doctor, this dose of 20mg isn't going to do anything at all to improve joint mobility. Even the most positive meta analysis on the subject shows that you would need 2.5 times the amount of the dose that's in Jock Joint Warfare. [11]
