Combining 500mg Glucosamine HCL with 400mg Phytodroitin, two important nutrients for joint health in one handy tablet. Glucosamine is an amino sugar that is produced in the body from glucose and glutamine. It plays a vital role in the health of synovial fluids, tendons, ligaments, skin, bones, heart valves and blood vessels, as well as in the digestive, urinary and respiratory tracts. Glucosamine Hydrochloride (HCL) has more Glucosamine per gram (78%) than other forms of this vital nutrient, making it much better value for money. Phytodroitin is a long-awaited plant-based alternative to Chondroitin, produced using only algal and fermentation-origin components, helping to maximise the effectiveness of Glucosamine HCL on the health, mobility and flexibility of joints. This product is a fantastic vegan alternative to Glucosamine & Condroitin.
