Health benefits at a glance:

First of all – what is glucosamine? It is an amino sugar found in joint cartilage. This nutrient has many potential health benefits, such as maintaining the connective tissue between the bones of your joints, promoting knee joint function and freedom of movement.

Not all glucosamine is the same though: you’re looking for glucosamine sulfate - the same kind used in clinical studies.


Why it works:

Glucosamine has been shown in clinical studies to support healthy cartilage and joint function. (1,2)


The science behind the product:

Glucosamine is an important component of cartilage, and an analysis of multiple randomized controlled trials found that glucosamine supplementation helps support healthy joint structure and encourages comfortable knee function. (1,2)

In laboratory models, glucosamine has been shown to possess anti-inflammatory effects. (3,4) In addition, preclinical research suggests that glucosamine may support cartilage integrity by modulating synthesis of cartilage structural components by chondrocytes. (5)

Glucosamine is often combined with chondroitin because both of these nutrients, including in combination support significant preservation of healthy joint structure and comfort. (6-9)

For the convenience of our customers, we are proud to offer glucosamine as a stand-alone supplement.
