BSHXF shows promise for low-back pain
We conducted a double-blind, randomized trial to see how well the Bushen Huoxue Formula (BSHXF) works for discogenic low-back pain. Seventy patients received either BSHXF or a placebo alongside lumbar traction for three weeks.

Our results showed that those taking BSHXF experienced significantly less pain and better mobility compared to the control group. Notably, their improvement in function and muscle tone was maintained even one to three months after treatment, with no adverse effects reported.

This suggests that BSHXF might be an effective option for alleviating low-back pain.

Elgucare reduces back pain effectively
We delved into the effects of Elgucare, a Chinese herbal supplement, on chronic low back pain caused by lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration. Over 12 months, participants either took Elgucare or a placebo and reported significant improvements in pain levels and mobility.

Specifically, we found an average reduction of 2.25 points in pain scores and enhanced quality of life. Patients also experienced better water retention and height in their discs, although bone mineral density showed no significant change. Overall, Elgucare appears promising for alleviating back pain and improving quality of life.

Bushen Huoxue improves back pain
We conducted a study to evaluate the effects of the Bushen Huoxue formula (BSHXF) on lower back pain stemming from lumbar disc herniation. In this randomized controlled trial, patients received either BSHXF alongside celecoxib or celecoxib and a placebo for two weeks.

Our findings revealed that using BSHXF significantly improved pain intensity and lumbar function compared to the control group. This suggests that BSHXF could be a beneficial treatment option for managing lower back pain related to disc herniation, enhancing clinical outcomes for patients.

Eliminates back pain

Major change after starting this. After breastfeeding for 12 months, I was in constant pain across my back, knees, and joints. Suggestions led me to this calcium supplement. Just three days in, nearly all my pain had vanished! Now pregnant again, my midwives say I’m the only woman in their practice with adequate vitamin D levels, thanks to this supplement. In summary, it’s the best and I urge everyone with bone issues to try it.

Highly, highly recommended. I’m only 28, but as a nurse with 16 years of soccer experience and two auto accidents, I notice a stark difference in my arthritic pain after taking this supplement. I take just two capsules twice daily, yet maintain a healthy diet. Remarkably, my back and legs don't ache after my long shifts as they used to. I recommend this to everyone.

I've used Jarrow BoneUp for over 10 years; without it, I feel joint aches and pains. The quality is excellent and visibly absorbed in my joints. It helps promote bone health and improves my sleep, alleviating back pain. I recommend it.

Joint support

My review will appeal to women aged 45+ seeking a complex for joints and bones. I initially bought this complex based on a doctor's recommendation. After just weeks of taking Bone-Up, the crunching in my joints diminished, and my back pain reduced significantly. The composition is impressive, containing Calcium Hydroxyapatite and several vitamins and minerals for absorption. It provides excellent support during menopause. I take 2 capsules daily with meals.
