Glucosamine is an essential substrate for the formation of glycoaminoglycans (GAG's) and proteoglycans‚Äö which are the main components of cartilage tissue. GAG's and proteoglycans trap and hold water‚Äö forming a dense fluid cushion within the joint and thus‚Äö provide lubrication and shock absorption. MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) is a natural source of organic sulfur‚Äö a mineral necessary for the production of proteoglycans. NOW's unique and synergistic formula is suitable for vegetarians‚Äö because it contains only Glucosamine from a vegetarian source and not from shellfish.
I am allergic to shellfish and found this wonderful alternative to help with my joints. I have been using it now for two years and found it was available on vitasave.ca. I have been ordering it since then from them.
As with everything, it takes time for products to work and some people respond quicker than others. The key is to be consistently taking the product.
You should always check the ingredients to make sure that there is nothing that you are sensitive to.
This has helped my painful joints and decreased my symptoms. I am supposed to have a knee replacement but due to a reduction in pain the orthopaedic surgeon feels that I can put off this procedure until my pain which is nonexistent gets worse and is unbearable.
I hope this helps and everyone is different and experiences a different reaction to products. Your results may vary from mine.

I have become sensitive to the regular glucosamine supplement. I have been taking this alternative for two years now. I added this to my regular subscription to vitasave.ca. I find this option very helpful. I am in need of a knee replacement and taking glucosamine for the last, seven years has helped stay the need for a knee replacement. When taking alternative supplements, consistency, and time are really important. I hope this helps.
