Glucosamine is an amino sugar that is produced in the body by the combination of glucose and the amino acid glutamine.Found in many body tissues and secretions, glucosamine plays a vital role in the formation of synovial fluids, tendons, ligaments, skin, bones, heart valves, blood vessels, articular surfaces and in the mucus secretions of the digestive, urinary and respiratory tracts.
We normally manufacture enough of this substance within the body, but this supply may be less efficiently produced as we age, by excessive free radical production and physical wear and tear on the body caused by heavy manual work, sport and poor posture. Glucosamine in supplement form has helped many people to maintain a healthy level of glucosamine in their bodies which may have a part to play in maintaining joint health.
