What is Glucosamine? Glucosamine is found naturally in the human body, and acts as a building block for the proteins that make joint cartilage. Unfortunately, as we age we produce less glucosamine, and glucosamine is not something that can be obtained solely through our diet. Why Choose Healthspan? The majority of glucosamine tablets on the market are made from the shells of prawns, crabs and other shellfish, meaning they cannot be taken by vegetarians, vegans and people with shellfish allergies. Healthspan's glucosamine products use a patented material called GlucosaGreen, a plant based source that is free from shellfish and suitable for vegetarians and vegans. Finally, they’ve added vitamin C to their formulations to provide support for your joints.
