Glucosamine is beneficial in the treatment for osteo arthritis in both humans and pets. It has been proven effective in easing osteo arthritis pain, rehabilitating cartilage, renewing synovial fluid, and repairing joints that have been damaged from osteo arthritis.
Each person produces a certain amount of glucosamine within their bodies. When people grow older, their bodies lose the capacity to make enough glucosamine, so the cartilage in their weight-bearing joints is destroyed. This then hardens and forms bone spurs, causing pain, deformed joints, and limited joint movement.
The finding that glucosamine could help osteo arthritis was first discovered in the early 80's in the European medical community. By the end of the 1990's, numerous double-blind, placebo controlled, glucosamine studies had been published, all reporting that glucosamine was indeed very beneficial in the treatment of osteo arthritis, and that it was safe for long term use.
With such great news spreading very quickly, the glucosamine industry became very large. Almost every major nutraceutical company launched a glucosamine product, and today glucosamine can be bought in health stores, wellness centres and chiropractic clinics.
However, in the rush to gain market share with their various glucosamine products, some companies often launched products with little regard to quality. They rushed to the market and launched medium or low grade glucosamine products to save money. It is important to note that not all glucosamine products are the same.
There are six main factors that you need to analyze when selecting a glucosamine product. These are:
�Amount of Glucosamine per daily dose
�Type of Glucosamine
�Quality of Ingredients
�Glucosamine Delivery System
�Synergistic Ingredients
�Price Per Day
One of the most important of these factors is the system of delivery. In the rush to launch glucosamine, the very large majority of companies simply put their glucosamine in pill or capsule form. However, with glucosamine and all other vitamins and supplements, it is a well known that liquids are absorbed faster and more effectively than solids. Absorption is a very important thing to look at, simply because if you are not absorbing the glucosamine, you will not have the maximum relief, no matter how much you take.
Perfect Shape recommends Liquid Joint Care as an ideal Liquid Glucosamine product. Liquid Joint Care provides customers with a pharmaceutical grade liquid joint supplement, with 2000mg of Liquid Glucosamine, 1200mg of Chondroitin and 500mg of MSM for maximum absorption and relief from osteo arthritis and other joint conditions.

By providing Joint Care in liquid form, absorption is fast and effective. In addition to this, taking 30mls of liquid is so simple, especially for those of us that don’t enjoy taking tablets and pills!
