Glucosamine Sulfate
Glucosamine is a natural compound found in the body, particularly in the fluid that surrounds joints. It is often used as a dietary supplement to help with joint health, particularly for conditions such as osteoarthritis. Glucosamine is believed to work by helping to reduce inflammation, promoting the repair of damaged cartilage, and slowing down the loss of cartilage. There are several different forms of glucosamine supplements, including glucosamine sulfate, glucosamine hydrochloride, and N-acetyl-glucosamine. Glucosamine sulfate is the most commonly used form in supplements. It is important to note that glucosamine sulfate is derived from shellfish (specifically the exoskeletons of shrimp, lobster, and crabs) and can be problematic for people with shellfish allergies.

- Glucosamine & Chondroitin are naturally occurring structural components that have recently enjoyed growing in popularity. Glucosamine is an amino sugar derived from the chitin of shellfish and is used by the body to support healthy joint structures. Chondroitin complements Glucosamine, working synergistically to provide optimal nutritional joint support.

- NHG developed the glucosamine and chondroitin test methods chosen as the official AOACI industry assay standard methods.
- Glucosamine & Chondroitin are naturally occurring structural components that have recently enjoyed growing popularity. They are widely recognized for their action in supporting healthy joint and connective tissue.
Glucosamine is an amino monosaccharide produced by chondrocyte cells (the cells found in cartilage that are responsible for the synthesis, maintenance, and regeneration of cartilage) and used to make glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and proteoglycans. GAGs and proteoglycans are the structural molecules that make up the connective tissues of the skin, tendons, ligaments, and joints. By providing the "building blocks" necessary for joint and structural tissue formation, glucosamine supplementation helps to support the maintenance of healthy joint tissues.
Chondroitin sulfate is another very important naturally occurring constituent of cartilage tissue. Chondroitin sulfate has been shown to work along with glucosamine to encourage healthy cartilage production.
This unique, extra strength, high dosage formula of Glucosamine & Chondroitin helps to provide optimal nutritional joint and connective tissue support. For best results, take this product for an extended period of time.

- Cautions and Interactions
The only side effects reported with chondroitin sulfate usage appear to be mild gastrointestinal incidents. Similar adverse reactions have been reported with glucosamine, yet this compound also is often suggested as supporting GI-tract health and function. It was feared that glucosamine might adversely affect insulin sensitivity, but clinical trials have disproven this.
