Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 2

Proprietary blends of herbs and botanicals have a long history of traditional use to support the structural system, which includes bones, joints, muscles, and connective tissues. Many traditional medical systems, such as Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Ayurveda, have used combinations of herbs believed to strengthen bones, ease joint discomfort, and improve mobility. Common ingredients found in such blends might include Boswellia, turmeric, willow bark, devil’s claw, and others, each with a history of use for musculoskeletal complaints like aches, inflammation, and stiffness. However, the term “proprietary blend” does not specify which herbs or in what quantities they are used, making it difficult to evaluate their effectiveness or safety precisely. While individual herbs in these blends may have some limited supportive scientific evidence for effects on joint health or inflammation, the use of unspecified blends is mostly justified by tradition rather than robust scientific validation. Overall, while traditional use supports their application for the structural system, scientific evidence for efficacy of proprietary blends as a whole is limited, and quality or consistency between products varies widely.
