Glucosamine Sulfate

Glucosamine Sulfate provides significant benefits for both the structure and function of joints.

As a dietary supplement, take one capsule three times daily.

Glucosamine Sulfate is a naturally occurring amino sugar. Amino sugars are key constituents of larger compounds called glycosaminoglycans and glycoproteins, which enable cells in tissues to hold together. They are necessary for the construction and maintenance of virtually all connective tissues and lubricating fluids in the body: tendons, ligaments, cartilage, bone matrix, skin, joint fluid, intestinal lining and mucous membranes.

If you miss a dose of Glucosamine Sulfate, take it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not take 2 doses at once.

Store Glucosamine Sulfate at room temperature, between 68 and 77 degrees F (20 and 25 degrees C). Store away from heat, moisture, and light. Keep Glucosamine Sulfate out of the reach of children and away from pets.

There are some side effects with Glucosamine. First of all, Glucosamine and diabetes may not do very well together. It has been shown that Glucosamine could actually contribute to diabetes.

Also, if you have an allergy to shell fish, you should stay away from Glucosamine. This is because Glucosamine is manufactured from naturally occurring shellfish and some of the allergens could be present in the supplement.
