Glucosamine supports the y structure, strength and shock absorbing functions of our joint health. Although glucosamine is produced by our bodies, our capacity to do this naturally diminishes with age.

Glucosamine can be taken as the sulphate form, as glucosamine hydrochloride or from a whole food source such as Green Lipped Mussel.

• Glucosamine sulphate is in a different category to sulfa drugs and is unlikely to cause a reaction in people with known allergies to these.
• Glucosamine is usually sourced from shellfish shells, therefore, people with shellfish allergies should naturally avoid these products. A vegetarian supplement is available (manufactured using no animal product).
• People with unstable blood sugar conditions are advised to consult a health practitioner before taking a glucosamine supplement.
