GLUCOSAMINE OVERVIEW
Glucosamine is one of a number of substance classified as an amino sugar. Unlike other forms of sugar in the body, amino sugars are components of carbohydrates that are incorporated into the structure of body tissues, rather than being used as a source of energy. Glucosamine is thus involved in the formation of the nails, tendons, skin, eyes, bones, ligaments, and heart valves. It also plays a role in the mucous secretions of the digestive, respiratory, and urinary tracts.
Glucosamine is made in the body from the simple carbohydrate glucose and the amino acid glutamine. It is also available as a supplement, in the form of glucosamine sulfate.
GLUCOSAMINE & JOINTS
Glucosamine is a building block for cartilage that is formed when glucose combines with an amino acid. Glucosamine Sulfate is a form of Glucosamine and is particularly useful in healing connective tissue. It can repair the damage caused by arthritis and aid body builders and athletes with joint pain by lubricating the cartilage around the damaged joints. Glucosamine hydrochloride is beneficial for those with sulfate allergies that still want the benefits of Glucosamine. Glucosamine is often taken in combination with Chondroitin and MSM.
GLUCOSAMINE SULFATE MEDICAL USES
Anyone who suffers from arthritis, or joint pain caused by injury or strain can benefit greatly from Glucosamine Sulfate intake. Glucosamine supplementation helps the body manufacture collagen and proteoglycans, which are essential for rebuilding joints.
GLUCOSAMINE SULFATE DOSAGE INFORMATION
The recommended supplemental dosage is 500 mg 3 times a day.
GLUCOSAMINE SULFATE SAFETY & INTERACTION INFORMATION
There have been no reported cases of toxicity or side effects associated with Glucosamine Sulfate when taken in the recommended doses.
