glucosamine & chondroitin ?

[Guest guest]

Glucosamine

Glucosamine [structural] occurs

naturally in the body’s joints and cartilage and plays a key role in the

structural system. As we age, our bodies become less efficient at manufacturing

the elements necessary for healthy joint structure. Glucosamine works with

nutrients like chondroitin to stimulate rebuilding and maintenance of cartilage.

Now you can get glucosamine with the added nutritional benefits of uña de

gato (cat’s claw), one of the world’s foremost tonic herbs. Uña de gato grows

in the highland rainforests of Peru, where it has been popular for centuries.

Uña de gato provides nutrients essential to the body’s structural system,

plus it’s a premier metabolic tonic herb. It also has cleansing properties. Each capsule blends 400 mg of glucosamine hydrochloride with 50 mg of uña de gato. Four capsules daily provide 1,600 mg of glucosamine.

Chondroitin

Chondroitin [structural] helps

bond connective tissue to prevent tearing, and inhibits enzymes that can

deplete cartilage nutrition. (Cartilage functions to protect bones from moving

against each other and to reduce friction.) Chondroitin helps retain moisture

in the joints, allowing for flexibility and resiliency, and cushioning against

activities like jumping and lifting. In addition, chondroitin works with

other nutrients like glucosamine to stimulate the rebuilding and maintenance

of cartilage. The body produces chondroitin, but that production decreases

as we grow older. Chondroitin is found in foods, but usually only in small

amounts. Fortunately, the body absorbs chondroitin well, making supplementation

a viable alternative. Each capsule contains 300 mg of chondroitin sulfate.
