Your body uses glucosamine, a natural compound, to stimulate your cells to create one of the main building blocks of joint cartilage -- proteoglycans. As you age, the amount of glucosamine created by your body decreases. The result? Your cartilage and bones begin to scrape against each other, your joints become damaged, and the lubricating synovial fluid in your joint spaces becomes thin and watery. All glucosamine supplements are not the same. To ensure effective absorption and tissue utilization, it's highly recommended that one takes glucosamine in the sulfate form. This is the way glucosamine is found in the body, and it lacks any known toxicity. Chondroitin sulfate attracts and holds large amounts of water to the cartilage-building proteoglycan molecules. Since cartilage has no blood supply, this fluid is necessary to nourish and lubricate joints.

"I've had knee problems for the last 5 year. I wobbled everywhere and always fell to the the ground. My doctor told me I need a knee replacement surgery. I was devasted. Then someone told me about this product and I purchased it in my local drugstore at an outrageous price. It has really helped and I no longer wobble. I found out through a friend about your website & was amazed that you had this same product at a better price and of higher quality. I'll remain faithful to you always. Thank You."

"I lift weights as a hobby, and I'm 36 years old, so I have the somewhat common ailment of a 'slight' tear of my rotator cuff. Not serious enough for surgery, but enough to be a pain at times; it seems to flair up 3-4 times per year, and each flair up can last for several weeks. When I take NSI Glucosamine consistently, the flair ups either dont occur at all, or if they do, the pain is minimal."

"I have been experiencing knee aches and pains, thumb and finger joint pains for about 3 years now. I have noticed complete absence of any discomfort within a few days of using this product. It is great! It is also much less expensive on your site and the fact that it is in capsules is an added benefit. Very good product and value."

"For any of you non-believers, this is a WINNER. I've suffered with joint pain for a long, long time. Began taking the Glucosamine Condroitin and nearly immediately, my pain disappeared. I've tried so many other things but nothing, and I mean nothing, worked, until now.
G-C is a miracle drug. If you have pain in your joints, take this and you will suffer no more!!"
