Natural Eggshell Membrane (NEM) is a dietary supplement derived from the membrane of eggshells.

In recent studies, NEM has been shown to both reduce pain and stiffness and increase range of motion in those individuals suffering from arthritis What is Osteoarthritis? Osteoarthritis can affect any joint in the body, although it most commonly affects hands, knees, spine and hips.

It is usually a slow process, resulting in deterioration and inflammation of the joint, leading to pain.

How NEM Works to Relieve Joint Pain Natural eggshell membrane naturally contains glucosamine, chondroitin, hyaluronic acid and Type 1 collagen, all of which have been studied and used individually and in some combinations for some time, as a means of supporting joint health. Because NEM is a naturally occurring, it is said to contain the necessary ratios of these substances in combination. It is believed that the combination of these substances in this form can serve to both treat the pain symptoms with its anti-inflammatory properties, as well as actually serve to re-build and repair connective tissue in the joint. Studies have shown NEM to reduce pain and stiffness by 50% in most study participants. These improvements were seen at all time intervals, including just 10 days following NEM supplementation, although longer periods of use, 30 – 60 days, showed a more significant improvement. These quick and effective results are rarely seen with glucosamine alone.

Unlike some other commonly used joints supplements aimed at decreasing arthritis symptoms, NEM is recommended at a dosage of only 500 mg/day – equivalent to only one capsule a day in most cases.
