How it works
As we age, our bodies become less efficient at manufacturing the elements necessary for healthy joint structure. A natural compound made in the body, glucosamine stimulates the building and maintenance of new cartilage, which is especially important to those needing more strength in their joints or wherever cartilage is found. Glucosamine is readily absorbed by both the blood and cells. The molecule is very small, easily diffused and water-soluble.
Ingredients
Glucosamine hydryochloride and cat’s claw inner bark.
- Helps stimulate repair of damaged cartilage.
- Contains una de gato for increased overall efficacy.
- Supports the structural, nervous and immune systems.
Glucosamine works in combination with chondroitin to help rev up the rebuilding of cartilage. It helps cartilage become stronger and healthier and helps it stay that way.
This formula also contains cat’s claw, also called una de gato. Cat’s claw is found high in the Peruvian rainforests where it has been used for ages as an overall body tonic. This herb supplies vital nutrients to the structural system and works as an adaptogen for the metabolism.
An adaptogen is defined as a substance that protects against the damaging effects of stress. It works together with crab shell derived glucosamine to provide support and nutrition to the bones and cartilage.
