Glucosamine HCl is a naturally derived amino sugar and a key building block of cartilage, commonly used as a dietary supplement to support joint health and treat osteoarthritis. It plays a vital role in the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans, which maintain the structure and function of cartilage. Typically sourced from shellfish or produced synthetically, glucosamine hydrochloride is valued for its ability to reduce joint pain and improve mobility by promoting cartilage repair and reducing inflammation.
Glucosamine hydrochloride works by providing the body with the essential building blocks needed to produce glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans, which are vital components of cartilage, helping to repair damaged tissue, reduce inflammation, and improve joint function.
