Mode of Action

Glucosamine Sulphate: A special ingredient to help keep joints in good shape. Glucosamine is naturally required by the body for the production of collagen to cushion the joints (cartilage) and synovial fluid which bathes and lubricates them. It is present in the formulation in the preferred potassium form, with minerals for improved absorption. Glucosamine stimulates the production of proteoglycans and increases sulfate uptake by articular cartilage. Chondroitin Sulphate: Helps form the proteins that maintain cartilage elasticity and works synergistically with glucosamine to help maintain joint health. Chondroitin is cartilage derivative; component of hyaline cartilage matrix that may repair cartilage & reduce synovial inflammation.
