Frequently Asked Questions

How does glucosamine support cartilage health?

Glucosamine is an essential building block for glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and proteoglycans -- the structural components of cartilage that provide its resilience and water-retaining properties. Supplementing with glucosamine supports the body's ability to maintain and repair cartilage tissue in the joints.

What makes MSM beneficial for joints?

MSM is an organic source of sulphur, a mineral essential for the production of GAGs, proteoglycans, and collagen -- all key components of healthy joint cartilage and connective tissue. It also has antioxidant properties that may help support joint comfort following physical activity.

How long does it take for glucosamine to work?

Joint supplements like glucosamine typically require consistent daily use over 4 to 12 weeks before noticeable benefits are observed. Individual responses vary based on age, joint health status, and lifestyle factors. Long-term consistent use is generally recommended for best results.

Is NOW Glucosamine and MSM suitable for vegans?

Please check the product label for the source of glucosamine used in this formulation, as glucosamine is commonly derived from shellfish shells. If a vegan source is used, it will be noted on the label. Contact our pharmacy team for the most current formulation details.
