Glucosamine, produced by our body's blood sugar and occurring in our cells, Enhances our body's tissues naturally by producing proteoglycans. Proteoglycans fill up spaces in the collagen framework, and with collagen give connective tissues their flexibilty, resiliency and resistance. Glucosamine HCI is believed to provide a higher yield of activity than sulfated forms.

Glucosamine is an aminosaccharide synthesized from glucose and the amino acid glutamine. HCl (hydrochloric acid) stabilizes the glucosamine in this product. Glucosamine is a component of joint and intestinal tissue and is involved in the production of synovial fluid, which lubricates the joints.Glucosamine is converted to N-acetyl-glucosamine in the intestines by the goblet cells. Glucosamine HCl is SALT FREE. This product is best taken with BioSil, the only high potency source of orthosilicic acid, the biologically active form of silicon that strengthens joints.

Twinlab BETAINE HCI CAPS contain the highest potency betaine hydrochloride formula available providing powdered betaine HCI with pepsin in gelatin capsules for quick acting and enhanced effectiveness.

In the stomach, hydrochloric acid converts pepsinogen to pepsin, an enzyme that breaks down protein. Pepsin breaks down proteins into smaller, more easily absorbed substances. As people age, hydrochloric secretion may be reduced, which can result in decreased levels of pepsin. Without proper pepsin levels, the body has a difficult time digesting food. Betaine hydrochloride is used as a supplemental source of hydrochloric acid, which can be utilized by the stomach to produce pepsin. The combination of betaine hydrochloride and pepsin provide an excellent stomach tonic.

NOW's Betaine Hydrochloride with Pepsin is formulated for maximum potency . It combines Betaine Hydrochloride (naturally occurring in beets) with pepsin that is standardized to national formulary requirements.

FlexMax Glucosamine Hydrochloride contains more elemental glucosamine per mg than sulfate forms and is more readily absorbed making it highly effective in promoting healthy joints by lubricating and nourishing damaged tissue and cartilage.
Sodium-free
Nature's Way FlexMax Glucosamine Hydrochlride is preferred by people concerned about high blood pressure because it is free of salts.

Glucosamine & Chondroitin are naturally occurring structural components that have recently enjoyed growing popularity. Glucosamine is an amino sugar derived from the chitin of shellfish and is used by the body to support healthy joint structures. Chondroitin complements Glucosamine and works synergistically to provide optimal nutritional support.
