Chondroitin (60 caps)

About: Nature’s Sunshine Chondroitin supports structural health. Found in small amounts in foods, chondroitin is a substance produced by the body. As the body ages, it produces less chondroitin, and thus the need to supplement this vital nutrient. Chondroitin assists in strength maintenance by bonding connective tissue, protecting cartilage from enzymes, and assisting in moisture retention in the joints. Additionally, it supports flexibility and resiliency and cushions the structural system in high-impact activities. Along with glucosamine and other similar nutrients, chondroitin helps support cartilage health through natural rebuilding and maintenance processes.   How It Works: Cartilage functions to protect bones from moving against each other and to reduce friction. Chondroitin helps bond connective tissue to maintain strength and inhibits enzymes that can deplete cartilage nutrition. It helps retain moisture in the joints, allowing for flexibility and resiliency, and cushioning
