Pain Relief is On the Way
Pain prevention. For most of us, it might sound like paradise found, but a place that feels completely out of reach. Luckily for chronic pain sufferers, it is really not as elusive as it sounds. Research has found that Cox enzymes are involved in creating the feeling of pain in your body. There are two types of Cox enzymes: Cox-1 and Cox-2. Common NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as Ibuprofen) block both Cox enzymes, which can assuage pain, but recent studies have indicated that the Cox-1 enzyme plays a crucial role in protecting the kidney, stomach and intestinal lining and therefore it should be protected so overall health is not compromised. 1

It can be discouraging to have to take endless amounts of NSAIDs (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory such as Ibuprofen) or pain relievers with narcotic properties to ease nagging pain. And some of these pain relievers have been found to cause devastating side effects like stomach or kidney damage.2 Knowing these risks, but feeling helpless to do anything about it, can cause stress and even depression as managing the constant pain feels endless. But now there is an all-natural alternative to reduce pain and inflammation.
Extract from the Phellodendron amurense (Cork tree) is one of the 50 fundamental herbs used in traditional Chinese medicine for up to thousands of years and has been lauded for its effectiveness in easing chronic and acute pain.3 This is one of the natural main ingredients in Nexrelief™. This key ingredient coupled with Citri-Z® (an extract from the peel of citrus) which has been shown to protect the heart as well as promote other health benefits, create a superior, safe and powerful pain reliever you won’t want to be without. And because Nexrelief™ selectively blocks only the Cox-2 enzyme, but does not impede the important Cox-1 enzyme, it is extremely safe to use and has no side effects. It can even be taken up to four times a day to alleviate chronic pain.
Finally you can enjoy a hike, walk, swim, jog or various other activities without the chronic pain. What a relief!
The Risks of NSAID Consumption
• Each year 200,000 Americans are hospitalized for reactions to NSAIDs
(Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs) and over 16,000 of them die.4
• Regular use of NSAIDs – such as aspirin, ibuprofen and naproxen – is
the second major cause of ulcers.5
• Up to 60% of the 30 million Americans who take NSAIDS for pain will
have gastrointestinal side effects.6
