Glucosamine and Chondroitin are of animal origin. Glucosamine is one of the amino sugars and is an endogenous protein structure.
Chondroitin belongs to the group of glucosamine glycans (GAG) and, like glucosamine, is produced in small quantities by the human body itself. Unfortunately, this natural ability can diminish with advancing age. Natural sources of glucosamine include marine animals such as shrimp, crab or mussels.
MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) contains organic sulfur. Sulfur is a component of many substances produced by the body, such as enzymes and sulfur-containing amino acids.
Sulfur is found in almost all body cells. For example, our body contains 5 times more sulfur than magnesium!
Collagen is the main component of most connective and supporting tissues and is a component of cartilage, bones and tendons.
Collagen fibers have quite amazing tensile strength: fibers with a diameter of 1 mm can withstand a load of 10-40 kilograms!
