GreenGrown(R) Glucosamine HCl
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.

| Precautions |
- At one point it was feared that glucosamine might adversely affect insulin sensitivity, but clinical trials have disproven this for oral supplements.
- The use of methylsulfonylmethane can lead to the occurrence of an abnormal resonance in the in vivo brain proton MR spectrum as well as in in vitro cerebrospinal fluid.
- CAUTIONS/INTERACTIONS: Glucosamine and methylsulfonylmethane at elevated levels of intake can rarely lead to gastrointestinal complaints, yet both of these compounds also are often suggested as supporting GItract health and function.
- Do Not Eat Freshness Packet. Keep in Bottle.

- Supports Healthy Joint Function
- The Glucosamine used in this product is derived from a Non-GMO corn source.
- Please Recycle.
- HOW IT WORKS: Glucosamine is an essential substrate for the formation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and proteoglycans, the main components of cartilage tissue. Proteoglycans and (GAGs) trap and hold water, forming a dense fluid cushion within the joint for lubrication and shock absorption. Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) is a natural source of organic sulfur, a mineral necessary for the production of proteoglycans. Protocol For Life Balance(TM) synergistic formula supports healthy joint structure and function. Unlike most Glucosamine products, Vegetarian Glucosamine & MSM is suitable for vegetarians because it contains only vegetarian sourced Glucosamine.
