The present disclosure provides mixtures of prenylated flavonoids, stilbenes, or both with flavans or curcuminoids or both capable of useful for promoting, managing or improving bone health, cartilage health or both, or for preventing or treating a bone disorder, cartilage disorder or both. Such a mixture of prenylated flavonoids, stilbenes, or both with flavans or curcuminoids or both can optionally be used in combination with other bone and cartilage management agents, such as calcium, magnesium, zinc, boron, vitamin D, vitamin K, glucosamine and/or chondroitin compounds, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents/analgesics, COX/LOX inhibiting agents, neuropathic pain relief agents, or the like.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1. A method for treating bone diseases, joint conditions and cartilage disorder in a mammal in need thereof consisting essentially of administering a therapeutically effective amount of a composition consisting essentially of a mixture of a Morus extract enriched for one or more prenylated flavonoids and one or more Stilbenes, and an Acacia extract enriched for flavans. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the Morus extract and the Acacia extract are blended in a 2:1 weight ratio. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the Morus extract is from Morus alba , and the Acacia extract is from Acacia catechu. 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the Acacia extract comprises about 0.01% to about 99.9% of flavans. 5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the Morus extract comprises about 0.1% to about 49.9% prenylated flavonoids. 6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the Morus extract comprises about 0.1% to about 49.9% stilbenes.
