Glucosamine
Glucosamine Supplements
We often take our joints for granted, especially when we are young and fit. We jump out of bed, pull on clothing without sparing a thought for the hips, knees, back, and other joints that works so hard to keep us mobile. As we grow older and our joints begin to complain, we begin to realize how important these mechanisms are within the body.
Joints, like most of the organs in our bodies, require a certain amount of support in the form of vitamins, minerals, and nutrients that support joint health. The most important nutrients to create strong, healthy, flexible joints include glucosamine and chondroitin.
Glucosamine is a natural amino sugar produced by the body. Glucosamine is essential for keeping cartilage and joints healthy. It is also found abundantly in the outer shells of shellfish but there are no other dietary sources known. It is therefore quite difficult to obtain glucosamine from natural dietary sources.
Luckily for us, chemists and scientists have figured out how to extract glucosamine from the shells of shellfish and we can benefit from their efforts by taking a simple glucosamine supplement that will support joint function.
Glucosamine has been used to treat arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, asthma, sports injuries, and chronic lower back pain and injuries. It has even been used to reduce the pain caused by osteoarthritis.
