Product Description
Glucosamine and Chondroitin Sulfate with MSM
Joint Health
Joint Mobility and Comfort
Clinically Studied Sulfate Forms
Protocol Glucosamine & Chondroitin with MSM combines three of the best known nutrients available for the support of healthy joints in one dietary supplement.
Scientific studies have demonstrated that glucosamine and chondroitin can promote normal joint mobility and comfort. Glucosamine and chondroitin are naturally occurring structural components of joints and surrounding tissues — they are a part of healthy joints and connective tissue.
MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) is a naturally occurring sulfur compound that supports the production of healthy joint structures.
Support for Joints Like Knees
There is evidence that supplementation of glucosamine sulfate, chondroitin sulfate and MSM may provide support in people who have experienced a decrease in healthy cartilage, joint degeneration, pain and swelling, including the knees.
The Science Behind These Ingredients
- Glucosamine is an amino acid sugar produced by chondrocyte cells in the cartilage. Chondrocytes synthesize, maintain and regenerate cartilage.
- The body uses glucosamine to make glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and proteoglycans, structural molecules of connective tissues — skin, tendons, ligaments and joints.
- Providing these “building blocks” necessary for joint and structural tissue formation, may help support the maintenance of healthy joint tissues.
- Glucosamine compounds have been reported to have several beneficial effects on the skin or skin cells. Because of its stimulation of hyaluronic acid synthesis, glucosamine has been shown to accelerate wound healing, improve skin hydration, and decrease wrinkles.
- Chrondroitin sulfate is another very important naturally occurring constituent of cartilage tissue.
- Chondroitin sulfate works synergistically with glucosamine sulfate to encourage healthy cartilage production.
- MSM is a natural form of sulfur also found in cruciferous vegetables, garlic, onions, legumes, nuts, seeds, plant milk, animal milk and eggs.
- In addition to it’s support for joint health researchers have studied it for reducing mucous-membrane inflammation and modulating allergies.
It may take several months of using this product before symptom improvement is noticed.
Some people use Glucosamine and Chondroitin Sulfate with MSM in conjunction with a curcumin containing supplement such as Curaphen or CuraPro.
Curcumin has been clinically studied for its role in reducing pain and inflammation.
Glucosamine and Chondroitin Sulfate with MSM is made by Protocol for Life Balance.
