Glucosamine HCl vs. GLUCOSAMINE HCL
Which is best absorbed?


"It does not matter whether glucosamine is given as hydrochloride or sulfate salt; both are well absorbed."

Dr. C. Wayne McIlwraith BVSc, PhD, FRCVS, Diplomate ACVS
Compendium, May 1999

 
Yes, both are well absorbed, but which is best absorbed?
Example: A product of 1500 mg/does of:
Glucosamine HCl is composed of: 81% glucosamine = 1219 mg. glucosamine
Glucosamine Sulfate is composed of: 64% glucosamine = 979 mg. glucosamine

 
1219 mg vs. 979 mg: Glucosamine HCl contains 20% more glucosamine than GLUCOSAMINE HCL ArtiFlex's glucosamine is 100% Glucosamine HCl.

Now you know why we use Glucosamine HCl and not sulfate in Arti-Flex®.
