    Introduction About GERIJOINT CAPSULE

    Gerijoint capsule is a nutritional supplement that aids in managing joint pain associated with many types of arthritis and helps to carry our daily activities. It contains native collagen type II which suppresses the inflammatory process in joints responsible for pain.

    Native collagen type II is taken up by certain cells in the gut (Peyer’s patches) where it activates immune cells. After coming in contact with some specific cells in the circulation, it secretes anti-inflammatory mediators which reduce joint pain and inflammation and also promote cartilage repair.

    Always take Gerijoint capsule exactly as recommended by your doctor. Swallow it with a glass of water, do not crush or chew the capsule. Take one capsule daily. Do not exceed the stated recommended daily usage. It is not recommended for people having hypersensitivity to chicken or egg.
