What is Glucosamine?



Glucosamine is an amino sugar compound produced by the body. Though it is common in the liver and kidneys, it is most often found in cartilage. Glucosamine is derived from glucose molecules and is believed to aid in repairing damaged cartilage, building new cartilage, cushioning joints, relieving pain, and reducing inflammation.



Glucosamine is also the name given to the dietary supplement created through extracting amino sugars from the tissues of shellfish such as crab and lobster. There are also glucosamine sulfates, which are synthetically produced salts derived from naturally occurring glucosamine. These salts are sometimes combined with chondroitin sulfates to aid in the relief of arthritis and other painful conditions affecting the joints, ligaments, and tendons. Sulfates may not be as potent as extracted glucosamine.



What is Chondrotin?



Chondroitin, also known as chondroitin sulfate, is a naturally occurring compound found in cartilage. When chondroitin is present in the body, it is purported to promote healthy joints by warding off the effects of damaging enzymes, increasing water retention, and enhancing the elastic properties of cartilage.



What is MSM?



MSM is a naturally occurring nutrient and sulfur compound. Sulfur is a component of bones, teeth, and collagen (the protein in connective tissue) and also helps you maintain a healthy inflammatory response in joint tissue. The mineral sulfur is needed for the manufacture of many proteins, including those forming hair, muscles, and skin.



What is Ester-C®?



Ester-C® Calcium Ascorbate is a unique and patented form of vitamin C. It is made using a proprietary, water-based manufacturing process which results in a pH neutral product that contains naturally occurring vitamin C metabolites. These metabolites activate the vitamin C molecules making it easier for the body to transport them from cell to cell for numerous health benefits.



The Science Behind Ester-C®



• **-Hour Immune Support* 



A recent clinical study showed that Ester-C® increased vitamin C levels in the body for up to *4 hours.1 White blood cell levels of Vitamin C were elevated in subjects receiving Ester-C® when measured *4 hours after initial dose. The presence of key metabolites such as threonate has been shown to be responsible for this increased level and retention of Vitamin C by the cells.



• Non-Acidic and Gentle on the Stomach



In a recently published study, individuals sensitive to acidic foods were given one gram of vitamin C as ascorbic acid or as Ester-C®. Subjects reported heartburn significantly more frequent and severe after intake of ascorbic acid and subjects rated Ester-C® as tolerated very good significantly more than ascorbic acid.2 So for anyone who has difficulty tolerating vitamin C, it's comforting to know that Ester-C® is non-acidic and gentle on the stomach.



How can Ester-C® help?



The main benefit of Ester-C® is its quick absorption and **-hour retention in the immune system.*
