Glucosamine with Chondroitin and MSM

Work together to promote healthy joint function

What is Glucosamine with Chondroitin and MSM?

Glucosamine and Chondroitin are recognized as the leading supplements for maintenance of healthy joints. MSM is added to further support healthy joint function. Our Glucosamine, Chondroitin & MSM is a custom formulation that provides a balanced combination of these nutritional supplements.

Glucosamine Sulfate

Glucosamine Sulfate is an aminopolysaccharide, which is a combination of an amino acid (glutamine) and a sugar (glucose). Glucosamine is produced by the body and provides the raw material for substances that provide the foundation for many of the body's tissues including cartilage, ligaments, tendons, and collagen, to mention a few. Glucosamine also supports the health of tissues that make up many of the body's organs.

Chondroitin Sulfate

Chondroitin Sulfate is a glycosaminoglycan, which is a long chain of specialized polysaccharides (or sugars). It is used in the body as a building block to form connective tissues such as cartilage; it is also present in the walls of blood vessels. It keeps cartilage fluid and elastic.

Chondroitin Sulfate is necessary in the production of cartilage. Proteoglycans, a vital component of cartilage tissue, is produced by Chondroitin. Chondroitin attracts water to the proteoglycans and holds it there, which is important to maintaining health joints.

When used in conjunction with glucosamine it is much more effective. It is best to consult with your physician before taking this supplement to discuss potential allergies or reactions.

Chondroitin Sulfate Safety & Interaction Information:
There are no toxic effects with Chondroitin; however, if you are taking anticoagulants (blood thinners) or aspirin daily, use caution. Safety in young in children, pregnant or nursing women, or those with severe liver or kidney disease is not known. Those allergic to shellfish should not take this product.

MSM

MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) is a natural sulfur-containing compound that is produced in the human body. MSM may support healthy inflammatory response and is thought to be a natural pain reliever. Although MSM occurs naturally in foods, even moderate food processing destroys most of it. Plants, animals and humans need sulfur for a wide variety of biological processes. MSM is a source of biological sulfur, which is a major component in many of the body's proteins, tissues, hormones and enzymes. Sulfur also plays a role in the detoxification of the liver.

Our MSM is a non-animal based nutritional supplement derived from pine trees.
