MANCHESTER, N.H. — Jakemans Inc.’s joint health supplement GOPO Rosehip with Galactolipids, which the company says has been clinically shown to help reduce joint pain and stiffness, will be rolled out in select U.S. retailers throughout 2016.

The company said that the product is currently available nationwide at all  Vitamin Shoppe stores.

“We are delighted to join the Vitamin Shoppe in introducing GOPO Rosehip with Galactolipids to the U.S. market,” said Jonathan Groves, president of Jakemans. “Our aligned goal of helping people achieve optimum health and wellness makes this partnership a perfect fit. While the number of people experiencing joint problems is increasing, few newer or more effective solutions have been available to them. Now individuals experiencing joint problems — from senior citizens to elite athletes — can care for their joints and continue to enjoy an active lifestyle.”

The company says GOPO Rosehip with Galactolipids is made from 100% specially cultivated natural rosehip and contains a high level of GOPO, a key component of rosehip, which may play a valuable role in the care of joints and joint tissues.
