Glucosamine is a substance found naturally in the body. it is a form of an amino sugar that plays a role in cartilage formation and repair which is very helpful for arthritis conditions. Glucosamine sulfate in it's nutritional supplement form is mostly derived from shellfish such as crab, lobster and shrimp. Clinical Studies have shown that Glucosamine sulfate helps rebuild damaged joints, tendons, cartilage and soft tissue in people. The Glucosamine Chondroitin combination increases the body's ability to absorb and utilize glucosamine supplements. Devil's Claw (Harpagophytum procumbens) has been used as an herbal tea ingredient in Europe and Africa for centuries.  The British Herbal Pharmacopoeia recognizes Devil's claw as possessing analgesic, sedative and diuretic properties. It is widely used for the treatment of arthritis.

MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) is a naturally-occurring sulfur compound that has been used as a safe, dietary supplement for decades. Sulfur, an indispensable element in human nutrition, is provided by MSM in a highly bioavailable and well-tolerated form. it can be used daily as a supplemental form of dietary sulfur or whenever a need for higher levels of organic sulfur exists. MSM is volatile and is easily lost during even moderate processing. Cooking, drying, smoking, pickling, and long-term storage can deplete the MSM content of food. Unless the diet is composed primarily of raw foods, it is unlikely that sufficient MSM will be ingested to significantly contribute to the nutritional sulfur requirements.
