More about the ingredients…
Glucosamine HCL: Glucosamine is an amino sugar that is produced naturally in the body. It is also found in seashells, or it can be made in the laboratory. Glucosamine hydrochloride is one of several forms of glucosamine and the glucosamine HCL contained in this food supplement is derived from shellfish.
MSM: MSM stands for Methylsulphonyl Methane, a naturally-occurring source of sulphur.
Rosehip: Rosehip is the fruit of the rose plant.
Nettle leaf: Stinging nettle is a plant in the genus Urtica that originated as a native shrub in colder regions of Europe and Asia and is now found worldwide. It gets its name from the fine hairs on its leaves and stems that release irritating chemicals when they contact your skin.
Turmeric and curcumin: Curcumin is the yellow pigment associated with turmeric, and to a lesser extent ginger.
Ginger root: Ginger, aka Zingiber officinale, is a rhizome – a thick underground stem that sprouts roots and shoots. This “hot” spice is native to warmer parts of Asia, such as China, Japan, and India, but is now also grown in parts of South American and Africa.
Montmorency cherry: Montmorency cherries are a type of red, sour cherry – Prunus cerasus.
Panax ginseng: Ginseng is any one of the 11 species of slow-growing perennial plants with fleshy roots, belonging to the genus Panax of the family Araliaceae. Panax ginseng is the botanical cousin of Siberian ginseng. The Panax ginseng used in this food supplement is of the Korean variety.
Apple cider vinegar powder: Apple cider vinegar is fermented juice from crushed apples.
Bromelain: Bromelain is an enzyme derived from pineapple juice.
Horsetail herb: Horsetail is a member of the Equisetaceae family; the sole survivor of a line of plants going back three hundred million years. The name “horsetail”, often used for the entire group, arose because the branched species somewhat resemble a horse’s tail.
Kelp: Kelp is a large edible seaweed (algae), which grows in underwater “forests” in shallow oceans.
Papain: Papain is an enzyme derived from the papaya fruit.
