Matol Glucosamine is different from common glucosamine products on the market. It was designed by natural health product specialists and our state-of-the-art laboratory. It is a unique liquid formula from botanical and marine sources with the following ingredients for joints and cartilage. Each tablespoon contains:
- 500 mg of Glucosamine (Sulfate)
- 500 mg of Methyl Sulfonyl Methane (MSM)
- 150 mg of Devil’s Claw
- 100 mg of Collagen Hydrolysate Glucosamine
Glucosamine is a natural compound that is found in healthy cartilage. It is a form of an amino sugar that plays a major role in cartilage formation and repair. It is beneficial in the treatment of osteoarthritis and has been proven effective in easing osteoarthritis pain, rehabilitating cartilage, and repairing joints that have been damaged from osteoarthritis. Many studies have shown that glucosamine is beneficial in the treatment of osteoarthritis.*
Each person produces a certain amount of glucosamine within their bodies. People lose the capacity to make enough glucosamine as they grow older. The cartilage in their weight-bearing joints, such as the hips, knees, and hands is destroyed, then hardens and forms bone spurs, causing pain, deformed joints, and limited joint movement. Supplementing with glucosamine can help replace this deficiency and restore the proper glucosamine balance as it is not found in the food we eat.
Glucosamine - is a safe and effective natural supplement that is been shown to be safer to use than NSAIDS (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs). Glucosamine has not been linked with long-term detrimental effects so common with NSAIDS making it safe for long-term use.
Methyl Sulfonyl Methane (MSM) - MSM, derived from a plant source, is a form of sulfur that is found naturally in the human body. It supports healthy connective tissues like tendons, ligaments, and muscle so it is important in conditions such as arthritis, muscle pains, bursitis, etc.* Experiments have shown that the sulfur contained in MSM helps form the essential amino acids methionine and cysteine. These amino acids are mainly involved in the reconstruction of cartilage. The sulfur concentration in arthritic cartilage has been shown to be about one-third the level compared with normal cartilage.
Collagen - Collagen, which also comes from a plant source, is the fibrous protein constituent of skin, cartilage, bone, and other connective tissue. More than a third of the body's protein is collagen and it makes up 75% of our skin. Collagen is a major structural protein that strengthens the tendons and supports the skin and internal organs. Collagen provides structure to our bodies, protecting and supporting the softer tissues and connecting them with the skeleton. Clinical results and testimonials have shown that the skin becomes smoother, visibly reducing fine lines and wrinkles. Hair and nails become stronger by up to 36%. If taken regularly, collagen can preserve, build and replenish lean muscle mass and encourage the body to shed fat.*
Devil’s Claw Extract - Native to southern Africa, Devil's Claw root or Harpagophytum has been used for thousands of years in remedies to treat pain and complications of pregnancy and in topical ointments to heal sores, boils, and other skin problems. Since its introduction into Europe in the 1900s, it has been used for many conditions including relief from low back and neck pain and in reducing inflammation. In fact, mounting evidence suggests that Devil's Claw root may help relieve pain and inflammation in people with arthritis and other painful disorders. Several studies have found that taking Devil's Claw for several months substantially reduces pain and improves physical functioning in people with osteoarthritis.*
The Advantages of a Liquid Formula - Matol Glucosamine was designed in liquid form to give your body the highest absorption per intake. It also guarantees superior bioavailability for quicker results.
- A liquid formulation is immediately absorbed into the blood stream for immediate effect. Pills require digestion and take several hours to yield little effect.
- Liquid is much easier to swallow especially for children and seniors.
- Liquid is prepared from fresh ingredients.
Studies show that joint discomfort can improve with regular use of glucosamine sulfate. Additional studies have shown that regular use of collagen hydrolysate provides additional joint protection. In a recent study, collagen hydrolysate was shown to improve leg joint strength and flexiblity with regular daily use. Personally, as a dietitian, I recommend glucosamine and collagen hydrolysate to physically active people as well as baby boomers regularly. These products are safe and effective for all people.
