Glucosamine Chondroitin MSM 1,300 mg — Shellfish Free, 120 caplets

Derived from North American corn, Glucosamine Chondroitin MSM 1,300 mg works to stimulate growth of worn cartilage, as well as destroy enzymes that damage it. This supplement helps repair degenerative cartilage, support healthy joint function and prevent the onset of osteoarthritis (OA).

Most glucosamine products on the market are made from chitin, a substance found in shellfish, such as lobster, shrimp and crab — a concern for anyone with a shellfish allergy.

This formulation is unique because it is made using North American corn. Each caplet contains 500 milligrams of glucosamine (sulfate) derived from Aspergillus niger using a corn fermentation process, utilizing farm fresh corn grown in Iowa.
