It is estimated that there are between 37 to 50 million people in the U.S. who suffer with some degree of arthritis. One of every three Americans over the age of 60 suffers from osteoarthritis which is a chronic, aggressive joint disease. This disease causes cartilage and other joint tissue to deteriorate. At the same time, bone spurs begin to appear at the same joints. Cartilage begins to wear down, and slowly deteriorates until the point at which the surrounding bones begin to rub against each other. Pain and swelling often result, as well as decreased ease of mobility.

The most osteoarthritis generally developed on the joints of hands, fingers, hips, knees, and big toes. The prescribed drugs (NSAIDS) do not purport to stabilize joint function but merely treat symptoms. Indeed, the NSAIDS actually promote the destruction of the joints which leads to surgery and joint replacement. Further, the NSAIDS including the COX-2 versions have significant side effects with many patients developing GI bleeding and other complications including death.

Glucosamine Plus, on the other hand, has an excellent safety and efficacy profile based on the sufficient clinical studies. Glucosamine Plus is the most advanced high-tech formula designed and manufactured upon USP and GMP standard. This formula is combined of Glucosamine and Chondroitin Sulfate, additional with MSM and joint fluid acted as cartridge lubrication in a unique Extended Release form to give anti-arthritic effects over the period of 6 to 8 hours. The low molecular weight of ingredients and extended release technology make the active components available for easier digestion, absorption, assimilation and utilization by the body system.

Glucosamine Sulfate is an essential component of joint and can be utilized to produce and strengthen the connective tissue and synovial fluid. Chondroitin works together with Glucosamine very well to stimulate the synthesis of joint fluid and promotes the healthy flow of water and other nutrients into cartilage. Methyl-Sulfonyl-Methane (MSM), an organic source of sulfur, is an antioxidant mineral and critical component of structural body tissues such as cartilage. Additional Bioactive Collagen Type II with Hyaluronic Acid directly nourishes connective tissue and synovial fluid to prompt joint function and joint flexibility.

Glucosamine Plus Advantages

1. Combination with multiple ingredients including Glucosamine Sulphate, Chondroitin Sulphate, MSM, and Hyaluronic Acid gives best support for the joint health.
2. Low molecular weight Chondroitin Sulphate (LMW CS) (less than 16,000 Daltons) extracted from a marine source has a good absorption. The permeability of LMW CS is nine times higher than others.
3. The extend release technology utilizes plant fibers to form a protective layers around the tablet upon entering the digestive tract. These natural layers provide cushioning effects and regulate the release of glucosamine, thus shielding against potential stomach irritation.
4. Hyaluronic Acid is the main component of the synovial fluid. One of its most important roles is to increase the viscosity of the synovial fluid. This is basic to reduce friction between articular surfaces, thus ensuring a correct and soft movement of the joint.
