GreenGrown 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.

| General Statements |
- 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.*
- Cautions/Interactions: MSM is generally well tolerated with no known drug interactions. Pregnant/nursing women, as well as individuals with glaucoma should consult their healthcare practitioner before taking MSM.
