This supplement is a complex-polysaccharide made from blood glucose that helps the body to produce the glycoprotein called mucin. Mucin acts as a cushion that is integral to the formation and maintenance of eye membranes, ligaments and tendons, bursa and vertebrae and heart valves and blood vessels. Natural glucosamine sulfate decrease with age and injury. Numerous studies have shown that sulfate-bound glucosamine is useful in the treatment of painful and swollen joints associated with oseoarthris. It is also useful for the treatment of Crohn's, colitis, sinusitis, rhinitis, bronchitis, pneumonia, HIV infection, impotency, heart disease and sciatica. Glucosamine Sulfate is the most highly researched form of Glucosamine; although there is plenty of anecdotal evidence supporting similar therapeutic results from Glucosamine-HCl. Glucosamine HCL contains 99% elemental glucosamine.

Ohio State University recommended 5 things to help our dog who was down to walking on three legs. One was to buy Glucosamine without additives. Yours was the purest formula we could find. Several friends w/ the same problem bought bulk w/additives at an outlet. None of their dogs showed the same improvement. I gave your product to two friends and they both were thrilled with the improvement. I will NEVER buy anything else. We ran short once and were worried our order wouldn't come in time. We actually were ready to drive to Canada but it was in the mail in time. All five of our dogs now take your product 2x a day. We are customers for life. I only wish I could post a picture of Big Boy running at the farm!
