Background: Arthmender is a herbal
supplement derived from India's Ayurvedic Medicine
(also called
Ayurveda). Ayurvedic Medicine is recognized as a Complementary
and Alternative Medicine by the National Institutes of Health in the
United States. It is one of the oldest medical systems (estimated
to have originated 5,000 years ago). Nearly 80% of the population
in India (900 million people)
relies on Ayurveda exclusively or in
conjunction with Western medicine. That's more than the
populations of North America and South America combined!

Arthmender's proprietary formulation contains 269
natural phytonutrients that exert 514
synergistic activities
on your body. Many
of these phytonutrients
are widely recognized for their contribution to Joint and Overall
