Symptoms: Arthritis, Pain

Do you suffer from arthritis?

Glucosamine is the ideal suplement for treating arthritis, osteoarthritis, joint pain, stiffness and swelling. As we age, glucosamine production within the body decreases and supplementation is essential.

When taken alone or in conjunction with chondroitin, glucosamine helps heal, cleanse and relieve pain the structural system promoting overall health. Glucosamine plays a vital role in the make-up and repair of new tissues, joints, tendons, and cartilage.

Lack of glucosamine can leave cartilage unable to function as a shock absorber causing joint pain and swelling. The body's inability to produce glucosamine is considered a major factor for the development of osteoporosis and osteoarthritis.

Nature's Sunshine's glucosamine sulfate is combined with the herb uña de gato (cat's claw) for its anti-inflammatory properties. Each Glucosamine tablet provides 400 mg of glucosamine sulfate with 50 mg of uña de gato.

(Individuals with diabetes should avoid glucosamine because it is considered a "sugar" and can raise blood sugar levels.)

Nature's Sunshine Glucosamine provides 400mg glucosamine per capsule. Herbal Mountain's Glucosamine provides 500mg glucosamine per capsule.
