Glucosamine
As we age, our cartilage slowly degenerates through tear and wear. This could possibly lead to osteo-arthritis, which is a joint disorder most known for pain and joint stiffness. This kind of condition is not to be confused with osteoporosis, which is characterised by brittle bones of low mineral density. Glucosamine in its natural form exists in all of our joints and muscles. It also plays a role in the everyday mobility and smooth working of tendons, cartilage and ligaments. It is a important building block of the complex proteins that are part of the structure of cartilage.
