NOW Foods Glucosamine & Chondroitin with Trace Minerals 240 Caps

NOW® Glucosamine & Chondroitin with Trace Minerals combines two of the best-known joint nutrients with a trace-mineral concentrate and alfalfa.* Glucosamine and chondroitin are natural cartilage components that help the joint hold water for cushioning, while the added trace minerals and alfalfa round out the nutritional support for healthy joint structures.* Together they promote normal joint mobility and comfort.* NOW Foods manufactures this product in its own NPA A-rated GMP-certified facilities, where every batch is tested for identity, potency and purity.

About the key ingredients

• Glucosamine Sulfate: An essential building block for the glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and proteoglycans that make up cartilage, helping the joint hold water for cushioning and shock absorption.*
• Chondroitin Sulfate: A glycosaminoglycan naturally present in cartilage and joint fluid that helps the joint retain water, giving it resilience and acting as a lubricant.*
• Trace Mineral Concentrate & Alfalfa: Complementary nutrients added to broaden the nutritional support for the maintenance of healthy joint structures.*
• Other ingredients: A plant-based hypromellose (cellulose) capsule with rice flour and minimal flow agents — no unnecessary fillers.
