Effective for joint function and health. Your body uses glucosamine, a natural compound, to create one of the main building blocks of joint cartilage -- proteoglycans. As you age, the amount of glucosamine created by the body decreases. This causes cartilage and bones to scrape against each other. Joints become damaged, and the lubricating synovial fluid in joint spaces becomes thin and watery. Supplementing your diet with glucosamine may help to replenish these fluids. To ensure effective absorption and tissue utilization, this formula uses glucosamine in the sulfate form to provide the sulfur necessary for supporting the repair of cartilage. . Did You Know? All NSI supplements are packaged in HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) bottles. These bottles keep moisture vapor out, protecting the freshness and integrity of their contents, and are 400% more effective compared other brands currently using PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottles. HDPE bottles do not break as glass can and are also recyclable so we urge you to please recycle them.

"The following were my motivations for purchasing this product: I felt like my joints were somewhat weak after not working out or exercising for two years. I was experiencing a weak feeling as I first started getting back into weight training and cardio. Also, I had injured my knee a few months before purchasing this, so I was also experiencing some tenderness and small amounts of pain in my knee. And, finally, I also turned 28 years old and felt like I sure wasn't as young and durable as I used to be and thought I could use the extra help to get back in shape.
After using this product for about a year now, I am in shape and my joints are pretty resilient, but I can't know for sure if it was the product or just the fact that I have been working out very regularly. Naturally, by having a regular workout, one's body should be able to build up joint strength and increase durability within them. Therefore, I'm still undecided as to whether this product really was the cause for me feeling like my joints are strong again.
I know for sure that I will continue to take it, in the case that it did help and will continue to help. I'd be very frustrated if I stopped taking it and then I end up hurting a joint, because it really was helping the whole time. Plus, the price is cheap enough that I am willing to continue paying for it, even if just for the peace of mind that it may be helping me.
Sorry for no concrete proof one way or another on this product. Maybe I'm too young of a candidate for a true test... (29 at the time of writing this).
Good luck with whatever you decide."

"I have been taking these as part of a three supplement regiment for my lower back pain and I am very satisfied with the results. I have been taking these supplements for about 2 yrs. now and I have not needed to take a single pain pill in that time. I know that these work together with the omega3 and chelated magnesium for relieving lower back pain because I used to take 5 ibuprofen and 2 naproxen sodium just to be able to get to sleep every night and now thanks to God and these supplements I don't need pain pills anymore. I could not be happier. Thanks Vitacost and NSI"

"I began having left knee pain several years ago. I finally tried NSI Glucosamine Sulfate and within several weeks, the pain was almost completely gone. I used the product for quite a long time with good results. Then after a while I began thinking maybe it was a fluke and did not reorder after running out. Within 6 weeks of stopping use my knee pain was back again. I reordered and resumed using the product and in a short time my knee pain was gone again. That proved to me once and for all that this product works."

"I have used glucosamne 500 mg. as recommended by a chiropractor, twice a day. It is difficult to find glucosamine alone and not in combination. Vitacost is a dependable source for many items. I have confidence in the brand and I believe the quality is of the highest but I haven't been using it long enough to give an adequate review. I would prefer to go back to the lower strength"
