What it does:
Fusion Health Glucosamine Advanced Repair with Glucosamine and Eucommia traditionally used to relieve mild osteoarthritis symptoms, with Chondroitin. Featuring environmentally friendly shellfish-free GlucosaGreen Glucosamine, Chondroitin and MSM combined with Eucommia, used traditionally to relieve symptoms of mild osteoarthritis and to strengthen bones.
- Features GlucosaGreen, an environmentally friendly glucose-based alternative to shellfish-derived Glucosamine
- Contains Glucosamine to help relieve mild osteoarthritis symptoms, including mild joint pain
- Features the herb Eucommia, which is traditionally used as a kidney and liver tonic that relieves symptoms of mild osteoarthritis in Chinese medicine
- Eucommia is also traditionally used in Chinese medicine to strengthen the bones and enhance the health of connective tissues like the ligaments and tendons
- In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), Eucommia is traditionally used to relieve mild rheumatic aches and pains (including pain of the lower back, knees, bones and connective tissues like ligaments and tendons) via its tonic actions on the Liver and Kidneys
- Includes the mineral Manganese to support healthy joint cartilage production
- Contains Vitamin C to support collagen formation and silica to support bone mineral density and mineralisation
- Also contains Chondroitin and MSM (dimethyl sulfone)
Glucosamine and mild osteoarthritis - Glucosamine Sulfate reduces symptoms of mild osteoarthritis, improves joint mobility and relieves mild joint pain. It also enhances joint and cartilage health via the production of compounds called glycosaminoglycans, which form integral parts of normal healthy joints and joint cartilage.
Eucommia relieves symptoms of mild osteoarthritis - Based on use in TCM, the herb eucommia has tonic effects on the Liver and Kidneys, providing relief from mild osteoarthritis symptoms, enhancing bone strength, promoting the health of connective tissue and relieving mild aches and pains.
Eucommia also relieves mild rheumatic aches and pains; such as lower back pain, pain in the knees, bones and connective tissue including ligaments and tendons.
In TCM, stretching and bending are thought to be easiest when the Liver and Kidney energy (Qi) is healthy because the Liver is traditionally considered responsible for strong ligaments and tendons, and the Kidneys are traditionally regarded as governing strong bones.
Fusion Glucosamine Advanced Repair also contains Acanthopanax, which is often used alongside Eucommia in TCM, where the two herbs are historically believed to reinforce each other.
Nutrients for bone and cartilage health - Manganese is an important mineral for joint cartilage health as it helps to maintain the health of the connective tissue and the formation of collagen found in the joints. Manganese is also required for the healthy mineralisation of the bones.
Vitamin C plays various roles in aiding connective tissue production, including the formation of collagen.
Silica (also known as silicon) supports bone health through maintaining bone mineral density and mineralisation. It also plays a role in supporting connective tissue health including normal collagen formation.
Shellfish-free, environmentally friendly glucosamine - Fusion Glucosamine Advanced Repair contains GlucosaGree®; a form of Glucosamine derived from glucose (from non-genetically modified corn) rather than from shellfish. GlucosaGreen is a more environmentally friendly form of shellfish-derived Glucosamine because it generates less waste in its production than shellfish-derived Glucosamine.
