INGREDIENT INFORMATION
Glucosamine supports joint health and mobility
Glucosamine occurs naturally in the body. It is found in the fluid around the joints and is one of the building blocks of cartilage. Cartilage is the substance that covers and protects the ends of the bones, and that allows the bones to move smoothly against each other.
Glucosamine helps maintain healthy cartilage development inside the joints in several ways. Firstly, glucosamine stimulates the production of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), which are building blocks of cartilage. The more GAGs the body produces, the more building blocks are available to create healthy cartilage. Secondly, GAGs are involved in the production of other structures around the joint tissue, such as tendons and synovial fluid; and are thought to stimulate production of hyaluronic acid.
Thirdly, Glucosamine help in maintaining healthy cartilage development. Finally, Glucosamine help in relieving symptoms associated with mild osteorthritis, and reduces mild joint pains and aches.
However, those wanting to use glucosamine to help in relieving their mild painful joints, should be aware that it may take up to 12 weeks before results are noticeable. Glucosamine is not a supplement that shows instant results.
Chondroitin supports healthy joint cartilage production
Chondroitin gives cartilage its elasticity by helping it to retain water. Chondroitin has various properties that can help reduce mild joint pain and maintain joint mobility.
A combination of chondroitin and glucosamine chondroitin and glucosamine is effetctive in maintaining healthy cartilage development, and reduce mild pain and other symptoms of mild osteoarthritis.
