Benefits

Joint comfort

In a large randomized trial, combined chondroitin sulfate and glucosamine eased knee osteoarthritis pain comparably to a standard anti-inflammatory drug, supporting the formula's joint-comfort positioning.

Supported by Trial 1

Cartilage support

Glucosamine and chondroitin supply building blocks of cartilage and help protect it from breakdown.

Supported by Trial 1

Joint lubrication

The hyaluronic-acid component supports the cushioning, lubricating quality of joint fluid.

Mechanism of action

1

Cartilage building blocks

Glucosamine and chondroitin provide raw materials for proteoglycans and support the balance between cartilage building and breakdown.

2

Anti-inflammatory and lubrication support

Chondroitin calms joint inflammation while the hyaluronic acid supports the viscosity of synovial fluid.
