A standard joint support supplement offering research-backed doses of glucosamine and chondroitin.
Quantity: 60Quantity: 150
This product provides the commonly studied doses of glucosamine and chondroitin, which are widely recognized for their role in supporting joint cartilage health and function. It is a targeted supplement for individuals seeking to maintain or improve joint comfort and mobility, particularly those experiencing age-related joint wear or physical stress. Its formulation focuses solely on these key joint ingredients and does not aim for broader nutritional support.
- Provides clinically relevant doses of Glucosamine and Chondroitin
- Very low in calories, fats, and carbohydrates
- Does not offer benefits beyond joint support
- May not be suitable for individuals with shellfish allergies
- Individuals with shellfish allergies should verify the source of glucosamine; consult a healthcare professional if taking blood thinners, as chondroitin may affect clotting.

Goals
Fitness 65.0
By supporting joint lubrication and flexibility, it can indirectly aid fitness by enabling more comfortable and consistent training, especially for activities that stress joints. It is not a performance enhancer itself.
General Health 50.0
While promoting joint health is a component of overall wellness, this is a specialized supplement and does not provide comprehensive nutritional support for general health, such as vitamins or minerals beyond basic electrolytes.
Muscle Gain 15.0
Glucosamine and Chondroitin have no direct impact on muscle protein synthesis or growth; any benefit to muscle gain would be highly indirect by allowing more consistent training due to better joint comfort.
