Sulfated chondroitin is an important structural component of the extracellular matrix, which contributes to the elasticity of articular cartilage. In addition to its structural role, chondroitin attracts water molecules to the cartilage, while also contributing to the inhibition of proteolytic enzymes that break down the protein structural components of cartilage.
It is often combined with glucosamine, as these two substances act through a different but synergistic mechanism. This product provides these two active ingredients at levels that have been used in most clinical studies.
Both glucosamine and chondroitin in this formulation are of plant origin, making this product suitable for use by vegetarians and vegans, as well as individuals with a history of hypersensitivity reactions to shellfish.
GlucosaGreen® is a patented form of plant-based glucosamine produced through fermentation and characterized by identical bioequivalence to glucosamine from shellfish.
Phytodroitin™ is a blend of edible sea algae (Kelp and Ulva, sea lettuce) providing highly absorbable and bioavailable chondroitin.
