Glucosamine
For Healthy Joints Do you suffer from arthritis? Glucosamine is the ideal suplement for treating arthritis, osteoarthritis, joint pain, stiffness and swelling. As we age, glucosamine production within the body decreases and supplementation is essential. When taken alone or in conjunction with chondroitin, glucosamine helps heal, cleanse and relieve pain the structural system promoting overall health. Glucosamine plays a vital role in the make-up and repair of new tissues, joints, tendons, and cartilage. Lack of glucosamine can leave cartilage unable to function as a shock absorber causing joint pain and swelling. The body's inability to produce glucosamine is considered a major factor for the development of osteoporosis and osteoarthritis.

How Does it Work?
A natural compound made in the body, glucosamine stimulates the growth of new cartilage, which is especially important to those needing more strength in their joints or wherever cartilage is found. Glucosamine is readily absorbed by both the blood and cells. The molecule is very small, easily diffused and water-soluble. The powerful alkaloids found in the bark of uña de gato are not only wonderfully tonic, but they also specifically feed the immune, digestive and structural systems. Uña de Gato has become one of the world’s supreme tonic herbs, comparable to shark cartilage, pau d’arco, eleuthero, and reishi and shiitake mushrooms.

Scientific Data
Scientists at Nature’s Sunshine wanted to offer this important nutritional aid with one more advantage—uña de gato. Known also as “cat’s claw,” the bark of this large, tropical vine was found by the Ashaninka Indians to have extraordinary benefits. Scientific studies seem to substantiate claimed results. While already popular in South America, uña de gato is being studied in universities in Germany, Italy, England and Austria for evidence of its antioxidant and tissuesupporting properties.
