History and Usage:

Glucosamine + Chondroitin + MSM Combination contains a unique combination of Glucosamine Sulfate, Chondroitin Sulfate, and MSM with Vitamin C and Manganese for the optimization of joint health. Glucosamine Sulfate is a required compound in joint tissue and is used to produce the joint lubricant synovial fluid. The body utilizes sulfur to produce cartilage tissue.

Chondroitin Sulfate is a vital compound for connective tissue in bones, skin, and joint cartilage. The organic source of sulfur, Methyl-Sulfonyl-Methane (MSM), is a mineral with antioxidant power and is a necessary component of structural tissues in the body. The sulfur from MSM is merged into joint tissues as glycosaminoglycans (or mucopolysaccharides) such as chondroitin sulfate and hyaluronic acid. Vitamin C and Manganese are necessary nutrients to aid the synthesis of collagen and cartilage. For best results, use in conjunction with Jarrow Formulas BioSil™. This concentrated biologically active silicon will provide additional support to joint and connective tissue and will help build stronger, healthier bone, joint and skin tissue.
