Glucosamine
Our Naturopaths Say
Glucosamine is an important nutrient for the human body because it is a building block for cartilage, the tissue that cushions the joints. Consuming glucosamine can help maintain healthy joints and may also help reduce joint pain and stiffness. It is commonly found in supplements, and is also naturally produced by the body. Some people may not produce enough glucosamine on their own, so taking a supplement can help ensure that the body has an adequate supply of this important nutrient. Glucosamine may also be beneficial for people with conditions such as osteoarthritis, as it can help repair damaged cartilage and reduce inflammation. Our team of accredited naturopaths can help you decide if glucosamine is right for you.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Glucosamine?
Glucosamine is a natural compound found in cartilage — the tough tissue that cushions joints.
What does glucosamine do for the body?
Glucosamine is found naturally in your body. It plays an important role in making glycosaminoglycans and glycoproteins, which are essential building blocks of many parts of your joints, including ligaments, tendons, cartilage and synovial fluid.
What is glucosamine made from?
Most glucosamine is manufactured by processing chitin from the shells of shellfish including shrimp, lobsters, and crabs. To meet the demands of vegetarians and others with objections to shellfish, manufacturers have brought glucosamine products to market made using fungus and from fermenting corn.
