The Honest Truth

Joint Ease Lab provides educational information about joint health, arthritis, pain management, supplements, exercises, and related topics. This information is based on research, clinical studies, and personal experience—but it is NOT medical advice.

What This Site Is

• Educational resource: Information to help you understand joint health
• Research-based: We reference studies and evidence when available
• Experience-informed: Real-world observations and personal testing
• Starting point: Foundation for conversations with your healthcare provider

What This Site Is NOT

• Medical advice: We don’t diagnose, treat, or prescribe
• Substitute for professional care: Always consult qualified healthcare providers
• One-size-fits-all: Your situation is unique and may require different approaches
• Guaranteed results: Individual responses to treatments, supplements, and exercises vary

Your Responsibility

Before starting any new:

• Exercise program
• Supplement regimen
• Diet changes
• Treatment approach

…consult with your doctor, physical therapist, or other qualified healthcare professional. This is especially important if you:

• Have existing medical conditions
• Take medications
• Are pregnant or breastfeeding
• Have had recent injuries or surgeries
• Are under 18 or over 65

About Supplements

Information about supplements on this site is educational only. Supplements:

• Are not regulated by the FDA like medications
• Can interact with medications
• May not be appropriate for everyone
• Require professional guidance for safe use

We may mention specific brands or products based on research or experience. These are not endorsements or guarantees.

About Exercises

Exercise recommendations are general guidelines. Before starting:

• Get clearance from your healthcare provider
• Consider working with a physical therapist initially
• Stop immediately if you experience pain
• Modify based on your individual capabilities

Improper exercise can cause injury. What works for one person may not work for another.

External Links

We may link to external sites, research papers, products, or resources. These links:

• Are provided for convenience and information
• Don’t imply endorsement
• Are not under our control
• Should be evaluated independently

Affiliate Relationships

Some links on this site may be affiliate links, meaning we earn a small commission if you purchase through them at no extra cost to you. This:

We only recommend products we genuinely believe have merit based on research or experience.

No Doctor-Patient Relationship

Using this site does not create a doctor-patient or professional relationship. We:

• Cannot provide personalized medical advice
• Don’t have access to your medical history
• Can’t evaluate your specific situation
• Cannot diagnose or treat conditions

Emergency Situations

If you have:

• Severe pain
• Sudden joint swelling
• Signs of infection (fever, redness, warmth)
• Loss of joint function
• Any medical emergency

Seek immediate medical attention. Don’t rely on online information in urgent situations.

The Real Talk

We genuinely want to help people understand and improve their joint health. But we’re not your doctor, we don’t know your situation, and medical decisions should always involve qualified professionals who can evaluate you personally.

Stay safe. Be smart. Get proper care.
