Bioglan Glucosamine 1500mg One-A-Day:
- Bioglan Sustained Release Glucosamine 1500mg is the strongest formulation available on the market. It is the only single tablet available that provides the therapeutic dose of glucosamine recommended by doctors for joint relief in one tablet. Each tablet contains a safe level of 1500mg of premium quality Glucosamine Hydrochloride.
- Bioglan Sustained Release Glucosamine 1500mg utilises sustained release technology to provide your body with continued support through the day, when it is needed most. ?Research has shown that supplementation with 1500mg of Glucosamine Hydrochloride, when taken daily over time, may be helpful for joint health and mobility including healthy knees, building connective tissues, including cartilage which coats and cushions the joints, and the production of synovial fluid which bathes and lubricates the joints.
- Glucosamine has also been reported to help relieve arthritic symptoms and swelling and pain associated with joints.
Glucosamine Hydrocloride
Glucosamine (C6H13NO5) found in Bioglan Glucosamine 1500mg is an amino sugar and is needed in the making of glycosylated proteins and lipids like the cartilage found in the joints. Glucosamine is one of the most common monosaccharides, produced from crustacean exoskeletons or, less commonly by fermentation of a grain such as corn or wheat.
1500mg of Glucosamine Hydrochloride is the therapeutic dose used in research and is now also recommended by doctors for joint pain relief. Glucosamine is a naturally occurring substance used by the body as building blocks for connective tissues which are optimal for joint health and mobility.
12 Hour Sustained Release
When taken orally, many nutrients only stay available to the body for a short time. After that, they are either passed through the system or become inactive. In a sustained release formulation, the nutrient is released over a much longer time frame.
Bioglan Sustained Release Glucosamine 1500mg offers a technological breakthrough in maintenance of joint health as Glucosamine is continually absorbed from the intestine over a 12 hour period, thereby giving the body an ongoing supply.
Sustained Release VS Immediate Release
In immediate release Glucosamine 1500mg tablets, almost all of the Glucosamine is released in under an hour. It only takes 1 hour to remove half of the glucosamine from the body (through urine or the stool), so the amount of Glucosamine available for the joints is only 13% of the original 1500mg. That is approximately 195mg.
In Bioglan Sustained Release Glucosamine, Glucosamine continues to be released into the lower intestine for up to 12 hours.
