Kirkman: Glucosamine Sulfate Capsules 120 ct
Description
Glucosamine Sulfate Capsules are a convenient and efficient way of adding sulfate to the diet. The benefits of sulfate appear to be linked to an enzyme system known as phenol sulfotransferase (PST). Sulfate deficiency may explain why some individuals are sensitive to a variety of phenol-containing foods, such as apples, grapes, berries, onions, potatoes, chocolate, food colorings, and some herbs and spices.
Kirkman's Glucosamine Sulfate capsules offer a convenient way of adding sulfate to the diet. Each 500 mg. capsule supplies about 150 mg. of the actual sulfate portion of the glucosamine salt. Glucosamine Sulfate offers an accurate method of sulfation and the absorbability has been proven clinically which is not the case with epsom salt baths or compounded transdermal preparations. One study found that up to 98% of orally administered glucosamine sulfate is absorbed, while another study showed that about 90% is absorbed via oral administration.1,2
Glucosamine may play a role in supporting the structure and function of cartilage in the body. Further studies are necessary to verify this relationship which appears very promising in supporting joint function.
Kirkman's Glucosamine Sulfate capsules are offered in bottles of 120 and are hypoallergenic.
