What is glucosamine? Glucosamine is an amino sugar that is produced within the body and helps build cartilage. We use glucosamine sulphate (glucosamine sulfate) as this form of glucosamine has been tested in many clinical trials. For more information please visit arthritisresearchuk.org/glucosamine. What is chondroitin? Chondroitin is produced naturally in the body, is found in cartilage and acts as a shock absorber. We use a superior high quality marine chondroitin sulphate and do not use the cheap bovine sourced chondroitin that many supplement manufacturers use. For more information please visit arthritisresearchuk.org/chondroitin. Why does the body need glucosamine and chondroitin? As the body advances in age it gradually becomes more difficult to produce the needed glycosaminoglycans, which are a necessary component of connective tissues, in order to maintain and repair cartilage and joints. Even when the body is able to produce the glycosaminoglycans, added stress due to injury or disease can cause enzymes to attack healthy cartilage or fight against the production of new cartilage in the joint. Health Leads Supplement Purity Promise We take our promise seriously. Many other supplement manufacturers routinely use a lubricant called Magnesium Stearate purely to make their machines run faster and save them money. Magnesium stearate is believed to inhibit the absorption of nutrients. Health Leads glucosamine and chondroitin supplement is 100% additive free and without magnesium stearate. High quality glucosamine sulphate 2KCl and 90% pure, high quality marine source chondroitin sulphate powder go into our plant source vegetarian capsules - nothing else!
