Kirkland Glucosamine with MSM, 375 tablets

As we age, we are unable to make enough glucosamine, which means that our cartilage is unable to retain water and act as a cushion. Glucosamine reduces pain by restoring worn-out cartilage. It works best when taken in combination with two other dietary supplements, chondroitin and pregnenolone. Glucosamine
is a natural cartilage compound that stimulates the body’s production of connective tissue. It is used to treat joint pain, repair connective tissue, strengthen tendons, and treat osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis (although the two conditions are very different, they both involve the destruction of cartilage tissue. When cartilage wears down, the bones rub against each other, causing pain, stiffness, and swelling). Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) is a sulfur-releasing substance that helps build tissue, collagen, hair, and nails. It is particularly effective in nourishing tendons and joints.
