Arthritis and Glucosamine

Glucosamine is naturally produced by the body. This super regenerative molecule preserves cartilage and lubricates joints. But with age, the body produces less, and joint pain, otherwise known as osteoarthritis, appears. Osteoarthritis primarily affects the knees, hips and fingers.

Glucosamine supplements

Supplements can relieve inflammation, slow cartilage breakdown and prevent joint injuries.

The dose recommended by health care professionals is 1500 mg per jour. Talk to your pharmacist to ensure you are taking the appropriate dose.
