NOW Glucosamine, Chondroitin & MSM combines three of the most popular and effective nutrients for supporting joint health in one dietary supplement. Our Glucosamine and Chondroitin are both 100% sulfate, the most studied form of these nutrients. In addition, we also include MSM (Methylsulphonylmethane), an organic form of sulfur found in all living organisms. Studies have shown that these nutrients provide dietary components that support healthy joint structure and function.
Glucosamine is a naturally occurring substance in the human body. It is an amino sugar that helps rebuild and repair the cartilage between bones and joints. It reduce arthritis symptoms by helping to rebuild cartilage, and helps relieve the symptoms associated with osteoarthritis, a degenerative joint disease.
Chondroitin is the most abundant glycosaminoglycan in cartilage and is responsible for the resiliency of cartilage. This naturally occurring substance is formed out of sugar chains, helps your body to both maintain joint flexibility, and helps maintain fluid in your body as well. The combination of these 2 nutrients results in a reduction in pain or discomfort from joint related disorders such as oseoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Other benefits include joint mobility, flexion and reduction in inflammation.MSM is one of the most critical nutrients for our bodies to remain youthful and energetic. As we age, along with a diet deficient in essential nutrients, our bodies become stiff, our cells become rigid, and our overall energy begins to rapidly decelerate. MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) is an organic sulfur compound that’s naturally derived during the earth’s rain cycle. Sulfur is present in many natural unprocessed foods, but it’s quickly lost during the cooking process. MSM is gaining a lot of attention due to the recent focus on longevity and anti-aging technologies.
