NLS’s Glucosamine & Chondroitin is a dietary supplement containing a combination of these two substances, specifically designed for joint health. These  active substances have proven benefit in the function of the joints and function synergistically.

Between the bones there is the articular cartilage that helps the bones move smoothly between them. With aging and in certain conditions such as osteoarthritis or chondropathy, there is a decrease in the quality and quantity of cartilage necessary to maintain good cartilage and to enhance cartilage formation.

Chondroitin  is an important structural component of the extracellular matrix of the cartilage. In addition to its structural role, chondroitin attracts water molecules to the cartilage and also helps to inhibit proteolytic enzymes that break down the protein structural components of the cartilage.

Glucosamine is an amino sugar found in cartilage and synovial fluid. It is produced by the body and assists in the function of the articular cartilage and the mobility of the joints.
