NEM蛋殼膜對關節疼痛有幫助嗎?效果如何?該怎麼選?

據統計,全台有7成民眾深受關節疼痛所苦!其中更有25%關節不適者忍痛超過3年!補充NEM蛋殼膜能增加關節活動度及減少疼痛,且效果更勝葡萄糖胺及非變性二型膠原蛋白。NEM蛋殼膜為蛋素成分且不含鈉鹽,高血壓及腎臟疾病患者都可以安心食用。經人體的研究證實,NEM蛋殼膜4-10天就能改善近4成關節疼痛、僵硬!

NEM蛋殼膜是什麼?

它是採用專利技術,萃取介於蛋殼和蛋清的那層薄膜,其中的成分有助於修復關節軟骨和結締組織。至今已有許多文獻指出,每天補充500毫克的NEM蛋殼膜萃取,不僅可以抗發炎、減輕關節疼痛,還能緩解關節僵硬、改善軟骨健康、7天內增強關節柔韌性,連續補充10天的效果更加明顯。[1]K,J,Ruff.,A,Winkler.,R,W,Jackson.,D,P,Devore.,B,W,Ritz.,2009.Eggshell membrane in the treatment of pain and stiffness from osteoarthritis of the knee: a … Continue reading[2]Rachel,B.,Dip,I.,2016. Glucosamine Sulphate v Natural Eggshell Membrane. NutriAdvanced,[online] 12 February.

NEM蛋殼膜、葡萄糖胺、非變性二型膠原蛋白三者的差別?

據統計,葡萄糖胺為台灣保健食品銷售前3名!成分大多萃取自蝦蟹。但就在2018年,健保取消了以葡萄糖胺為主要成分的關節保健品給付,而取消給付的主要原因很可能是因為其治療效果不明確,或是沒有效果。如果連原為藥品等級的保健品都被認為效果不明,那我們就必須進一步尋找可以取代葡萄糖胺的成分!

於是非變性第二型膠原蛋白就出現了,也被保健業者們大量的廣告,其成分主要萃取自雞軟骨。然而在醫學資料庫上雖然可以查到一些相關論文,證實對關節修復有些許療效,但多數都是動物實驗,在人體上的實驗相對較少。

NEM蛋殼膜,萃取自蛋殼和蛋清間的那層薄膜,為蛋素成分,且不含鈉鹽,高血壓及腎臟疾病患者都可以安心食用。經人體的研究證實,NEM蛋殼膜4-10天就能改善近4成關節疼痛、僵硬,減輕疼痛指數更是葡萄糖胺6倍效果,且能維持超過30-60天。[3]Eggshell membrane: a possible new natural therapeutic for joint and connective tissue disorders.

含有蛋殼膜成分的關節保健食品都有效嗎?

蛋殼膜(eggshell membrane)是這幾年新興的保健食品原料。蛋殼以往都被認為是食用後剩餘的餘料,但科學家這幾年發現,蛋殼膜富藏豐富的營養素,包含支鏈胺基酸、必需胺基酸、角蛋白、卵清蛋白(ovalbumin)、玻尿酸(hyaluronic acid)、硫酸軟骨素(chondroitin sulfate)與葡萄糖胺(glucosamine)等成分,在許多領域已經獲得科學上的突破性驗證,這幾年更是大幅被應用在各項保健產品上。

市面上採用蛋殼膜萃取的關節保健品有很多,其中又以美國專利NEM蛋殼膜得到最多科學佐證。它擁有4項國際關節專利及超過500篇的國際文獻證實功效,[6]Eggshell membrane: A possible new natural therapeutic for joint and connective tissue disorders. Results from two open-label human clinical studies以及德國6大醫學中心、美國亞利桑那大學醫學院等權威機構研究證實。[7]Danesch U, Seybold M, Rittinghausen R, Treibel W, Bitterlich N (2014) NEM® Brand Eggshell Membrane Effective in the Treatment of Pain Associated with Knee and Hip Osteoarthritis: Results from a Six … Continue reading其成分同時也通過歐洲聯盟機能認證及加拿大政府藥物管理局核准,能有效幫助關節潤滑、提高活動能力、維護關節健康,且無副作用。[8]Ruff KJ, Morrison D, Duncan SA, Back M, Aydogan C, Theodosakis J.
