Supplement Information:

Vitamin C:  protects against free radical damage, necessary for iron absorption, essential for healthy bones & teeth, promotes healing of wounds, necessary for formation of collagen, helps maintain elasticity of skin, aids in reducing aging.

Manganese:  trace mineral that helps prevent bone loss and protect against free radical damage, assists the body in processing glucosamine - (important ingredient usually missing in the current glucosamine products available).

Glucosamine HCL:  reduces joint pain & swelling, can increase range of motion, aids in the maintenance & repair of cartilage and connective tissues, aids in lubrication of joints by stimulating production of synovial fluid.  Glucosamine, a natural substance in the human body, is largely found in cartilage and plays a vital role in its health & resiliency.  As we age, glucosamine and other substances in the cartilage may decrease, leading to thinning of cartilage and the onset and progression of arthritis.  Studies have shown glucosamine to help prevent progression of osteoarthritis, as well as improve mobility and decrease the associated pain.  Comparison studies have indicated that glucosamine can have better long term results with fewer side effects than nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs that are generally prescribed for osteoarthritis.

Chondroitin Sulfate:  naturally found in human body, aids in lubrication & elasticity of cartilage, has anti-inflammatory & analgesic effects, can aid in faster healing of wounds and parasitic infections, may aid in reducing allergic reactions, improved lung functions (including asthma), synergistic with Vitamin C to promote health of skin, may reduce severity of sunburns, linked to health of hair and nails.

MSM:  acts as an analgesic and an anti-inflammatory, reduces muscle spasm and increases blood supply, aids in softening of scar tissue, needed for proper function of immune system and hormone balance, may help allergies, asthma, headaches, skin problems, and stomach & digestive problems, critical to the formation of connective tissues, aids in the formation of keratin which is essential for hair & nail growth.

Hyaluronic Acid:  important for the health & lubrication of joints, aids in smoother skin, improved vision, and less fatigue, has been shown to reduce scarring, can help boost the immune system and reduce bacterial infections, even in those with chronic bronchitis.  As we age, our natural levels of HA decrease.  When HA levels decrease, our tissues become less elastic, resulting in wrinkles and aches & pains.

CMO:  increases effectiveness of glucosamine by 2-3 times, acts as lubricating agent to joint and osseous tissue, which is found in the knees, shoulders, arms, and fingers, studies have shown that CMO can improve joint mobility, relieve arthritis pain, reduce inflammation, and re-program your immune system so that it will not mistakenly attack your own damaged cells.
