What is Glucosamine Fusion? It’s a world first combination of Optiflex® glucosamine hydrochloride (HCI) and glucosamine sulphate (2KCI). Glucosamine is found naturally in the body and acts as an important building block for the proteins that make joint cartilage. Unfortunately, we produce less glucosamine as we age, and because it can’t be obtained solely through diet, glucosamine has become a popular supplement. There are two forms of glucosamine available on the market. Glucosamine sulphate is the more traditional and more researched form of glucosamine. However, Healthspan pioneered Optiflex® glucosamine hydrochloride, which contains more base glucosamine per gram than glucosamine sulphate. With Glucosamine Fusion, we’ve created an innovative dual blend of 1,500mg glucosamine HCl and 2KCl - so now you can have the best of both. Why is ours better? Healthspan use a sustainable, plant-based source of glucosamine called GlucosaGreen®, meaning Glucosamine Fusion is suitable for vegans and those with a shellfish allergy. Many glucosamine products on the market are derived from shellfish, and are therefore not vegan friendly and unsuitable for those allergic to shellfish. What’s more, the manufacturing process is energy intensive, inefficient, and generates a huge amount of wastewater. GlucosaGreen® however has a far reduced impact on our environment and is a much more sustainable way to produce glucosamine. Each tablet contains 1,500mg dual-source glucosamine, providing the maximum allowable levels of glucosamine, and we’ve also added vitamin C to our formulation to support your joint health.* *Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of cartilage.
