What is ASU?

Avocado-Soybean Unsaponifiable (or ASU) is an entirely new product that has helped millions improve their joint health without the side effects of prescription and over-the-counter pain relievers.

ASU is mixture of healthy substances derived from small portions of avocado and soybean oils that can dramatically improve joint health.

In the US, ASU is sold as a dietary supplement for improving joint health. No prescription is required.

ASU is a totally vegetarian product, suitable for vegans and anyone else wishing to avoid animal products.

How is ASU made?

Avocado-Soybean Unsaponifiable or ASU is derived entirely from vegetable sources. It is isolated from a certain fraction of the oil from avocados and soybeans.

In fact, less than one percent of the avocado and soy oils make up the unsaponifiable fraction (or portion) of these oils. The unsaponifiable fraction is then stripped from the fibers that bind it so it can be better absorbed when taken by mouth.

What is unsaponifiable?

Saponifiable is a chemical term used to describe a substance that can be mixed with lye to form soap. Saponifiable oils, mixed with lye are the basis of almost all soap products we use.

Unsaponifiable oil fractions cannot form soap and, like other "good" fats, have special health benefits when ingested. The avocado portion of ASU has special properties of its own.

How Does ASU Work?

ASU has been shown to improve joint health by stimulating the production of new cartilage while reducing the breakdown of existing cartilage.

This applies to both major cartilage components: the collagen component that provides the framework and the large proteoglycan molecules that give cartilage its shock absorbing and friction-free properties.

Unlike other substances that can stimulate collagen production, ASU causes cartilage cells to produce the four types of collagen for the joint cartilage in the exact same proportion as is found in normal, healthy joint cartilage.

In addition, ASU decreases pain, inflammation and the need for pain relievers and anti-inflammatory drugs, in the majority of users. This alone is a major reason to use ASU.

Unlike other supplements or drug treatments for osteoarthritis, ASU apparently works even better in those who have more severe cartilage loss.

ASU appears to benefit cartilage even in those who do not have any noticeable change in their symptoms. This is similar to calcium supplements helping with bone mineral density without affecting a person’s symptoms (you can’t feel calcium helping your bones, for instance). As a result, people should consider staying on ASU supplements even if they require additional pain relievers.
