Glucosamine

Glucosamine is an amino sugar produced from the shells of chitin (shellfish) and is a key component of the extra cellular matrix of cartilage. Glucosamine works to stimulate joint function and repair. Glucosamine has been clinically proven to slow the progression of osteoarthritis in humans with arthritis and hip dysplasia in pets. It has been proven effective in easing osteoarthritis pain, aid in rehabilitating cartilage, renewing synovial fluid, and repairing joints that have been damaged from osteoarthritis.

Our bodies produce glucosamine naturally. However, as we grow older we lose the ability to produce sufficient quantities. Having enough glucosamine is essential to producing the nutrients we need to produce synovial fluid. It is this fluid which lubricates our cartilage and maintains healthy joints.

When you have a glucosamine deficiency, cartilage hardens and bone spurs develop which leads to deformities in the joints. Your mobility becomes limited and in short, this is how osteoarthritis develops.

This was big news to nutraceutical companies and it was the beginning of an all-new segment of the industry. Today, nearly all of the major companies offer their version of glucosamine through a wide range of outlets, from retail stores to medical clinics.

However, in their rush to gain market share companies put products on the market with little regard to the overall quality of their offering. Most are deficient because the glucosamine ranges from low to medium quality at best. As well, most are in pill or capsule form which means that they are not absorbed well into your system.

The Science Backing Liquid Glucosamine formula Syn-flex®

The first tests on liquid glucosamine were completed in 1998. The testing made clear that the absorption rate and bio-availability of glucosamine in pill form was significantly less than in liquid form.

The misconception that pills are the only and best way to obtain glucosamine is simply not true. Pills and capsules contain glucosamine that is in powder form. It is a well known fact that liquid is absorbed much better than powder, at a rate of 80-85% absorption. In short, glucosamine in liquid form is absorbed faster and it provides greater impact.

The reports on the use of capsule or pill forms of glucosamine vary greatly. Most users report that if they received any relief at all, it came after six to ten weeks of use. On the other hand, those using liquid glucosamine reported feeling pain relief in as little as one to two weeks.

This is not the end of the story, however. Glucosamine is most effective when combined with other synergistic ingredients. Syn-flex® is a 98% pure glucosamine formula that also combines 10 other synergistic arthritis-fighting ingredients for maximum pain relief, inflammation reduction, and cartilage rehabilitation. We highly recommend trying a bottle of Syn-flex® for anyone suffering from osteoarthritis.
