Olimp Sport Nutrition - Glucosamine Plus

Olimp Glucosamine Plus is a food supplement containing glucosamine sulfate and chondroitin sulfate – two of the most essential substances needed to maintain healthy cartilage and joints.

Glucosamine is an aminosugar and an important component of cartilage in the body. It is a naturally occurring substance that represents building material for repairing joints due to osteoarthritis or physical injuries. Glucosamine thus provides the body with the ingredients for the synthesis of mucopolysaccharides (glycosaminoglycan) found in the cartilage. Studies show that a glucosamine sulfate is a form of glucosamine, which is absorbed quickly and simply in the body and is therefore available for restoration of the joints.

Chondroitin sulfate is a substance that consists of repeating chains of molecules called mucopolysaccharides. In addition to glucosamine, it is one of the main ingredients of cartilage, which offers its structure and allows for the containment of water and nutrients. In addition, chondroitin allows the molecules to pass through the cartilage, which is very important, as there is no blood supply to cartilage. Chondroitin acts as a flexible connecting element between solid mucous filaments and cartilage, which gives it strength and elasticity.

The Olimp Glucosamine Plus dietary supplement is intended for all people who overstress their joints, especially athletes and elderly people.
