Avocado Soybean(ASU)

Avocado Soybean are natural vegetable extract made from one-third avocado oil and two-thirds soybean oil. ASU blocks pro-inflammatory chemicals, prevents deterioration of synovial cells (which line the joints) and may help regenerate normal connective tissue.

 ASU has been studied extensively studied in Europe, where it is routinely used to treat OA. A 2003 study published in the Journal of Rheumatology reported ASU inhibited the breakdown of cartilage and promoted repair. A 2008 meta-analysis found that ASU improved symptoms of hip and knee OA and reduced or eliminated use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NDAIDs).

A large, three-year study published in 2013 in the BMJ showed that ASU significantly reduced progression of hip OA compared with placebo.
