Glucosamine Sulfate enhances and utilizes the intrinsic compounds in cartilage in order to nutritionally provide for healthy cartilage and proper joint functioning.*

Glucosamine is a naturally occurring compound present in joint cartilage that is necessary for the synthesis of proteoglycans, the protein molecules responsible for giving cartilage its strength and resilience. Sulfate, another component of proteoglycans, works synergistically with glucosamine in cartilage metabolism. Glucosamine sulfate nutritionally supports healthy joints and the body’s ability to generate and regenerate connective tissue.*

What is the Source?
Glucosamine sulfate is derived from crab and shrimp chitin. This product is a potassium salt of glucosamine sulfate. Potassium is derived from limestone. Ascorbyl palmitate is derived from corn dextrose fermentation and palm oil.
