The dietary supplement NOW Foods Glucosamine '1000' contains glucosamine and comes in swallowable capsule form. Glucosamine is a compound from the amino sugar group that occurs naturally in the human body. It is a component of connective tissue, cartilage and joint fluid. In dietary supplements, it can appear on its own (as in the case of the NOW Foods product), in combination with chondroitin or with methylsulfonylmethane (MSM).

Healthy joints - how can you take care of them on a daily basis?

Joints are movable joints of bones, allowing one bone to change position relative to another. They differ in the type of movement they perform and also in the shape of their joint surfaces. How can you take care of your joints on a daily basis? First and foremost, it is worthwhile to: exercise regularly; maintain a healthy body weight; eat a healthy diet; and choose footwear that makes walking comfortable. Supplementation can be an additional support.
