The Glucosamine Sulfate Difference
While many products today use different versions of Glucosamine, such as Glucosamine Hydrochloride, InvigoFlex GS specifically uses Glucosamine Sulfate as it has been proven in many different studies. Glucosamine Sulfate is one of the most popular and proven ingredients used to help with joint discomfort. As a natural ingredient, Glucosamine Sulfate is essential in maintaining cartilage in the joints while defending, strengthening, and promoting overall joint flexibility. Glucosamine Sulfate has also been investigated for its ability to modify underlying cartilaginous degeneration in joints, and therefore to potentially provide relief to patients. The majority of studies have demonstrated the ability of Glucosamine Sulfate to alleviate symptoms of joint discomfort due to overexertion and exercise as well as support joint function and cartilage.
The benefit in taking InvigoFlex GS comes in two forms. First, it provides much needed short-term relief (1-3 months) by helping to reduce pain from overexertion and exercise. Second, it provides long-term benefits in maintaining the joint cartilage and promoting overall joint health on a consistent basis. Additionally, less negative side effects have been reported compared to other joint products.
Beware of Imitations – Not all Glucosamines are the same
Glucosamine Sulfate has 150 pre-clinical and clinical studies with 12,125 subjects and 91 leading institutions. Leading medical journals like The Lancet and JAMA's Archives of Internal Medicine caution that without head-to-head trials, other glucosamine products, like Glucosamine hydrochloride (HCI), may not provide the same benefits as Glucosamine Sulfate. So beware of imitations.*
Customers and healthcare providers may be confused as to which product they should purchase or recommend. Many believe that all glucosamines are the same and that it doesn’t matter which product you choose or which glucosamine (Sulfate or Hydrochloride) you should take. However, the GAIT study – one of the largest U.S. studies done on Glucosamine and Chondroitin– found that patients who took glucosamine (hydrochloride) and chondroitin sulfate alone or in combination, had outcomes similar to those experienced by patients who took celecoxib or placebo (sugar) pills. This new information was incorrectly used by some people as evidence that glucosamine and chondroitin as ingredients do not work for joint health. What is accurate, in fact, is that in studies that occurred before the GAIT trials it was only glucosamine hydrochloride that had questionable efficacy. In its editorial after the GAIT findings were announced, The New England Journal of Medicine stated the following – for full editorial:
"If patients, choose to take dietary supplements to control their symptoms, they should be advised to take glucosamine sulfate rather than glucosamine hydrochloride and, for those with severe pain, that taking chondroitin sulfate with glucosamine sulfate may have an additive effect. 5"
