1 A Day GlucOsamax Original 1020041 A Day GlucOsamax Original maximum strength Helping to maintain mobility of the joints
Health Perception, the company who first brought you GlucOsamine and who continue to develop its potential with innovative formulations dedicated to helping you care for your body, now brings you new GlucOsamax Original. (Previously known as Glucosamax Maximum Strength).
GlucOsamine is a naturally - occuring, non toxic biochemical constituent. Connective tissue in and around the joints is constantly renewed. Structures such as cartilage tendons and ligaments rely on an amino sugar, GlucOsamine, for this continuous rebuilding.
Each GlucOsamax Original tablet is formuleatd to contain 2000mg of Glucosamine 2KCL which, when absorbed by the body, provides a full 1500mg of pure glucosamine sulphate.
England Rugby skipper Lawrence Dallaglio firmly believes in the benefits of glucosamine and believes that GlucOsamax helped him back to recovery after his knee operation.

Glucosamine and Chondroitin 103006Glucosamine and Chondroitin There are 143 different joints in the human body, all of which fall into one of three categories: fixed, slightly moveable, or highly mobile. The structure of the different highly mobile joints (also called synovial joints) is much the same, and all include the following key elements:
Joint capsule - a tough membrane or `sack` that encloses the joint and connects one bone to another, holding them firmly in place;
Synovium - the inner
lining of the joint capsule, which secretes synovial fluid to help lubricate and nourish the cartilage;
Cartilage - caps the ends of the bones leading into the joint, allowing free movement and preventing the bones from grinding against each other;
Ligaments - attach the bones together, providing stable movement;
Muscles - provide
movement for the bones by contracting and
relaxing , and also offer shock absorbing properties around the joint;
Bursae - small, fluid-filled sacs positioned at strategic points to cushion ligaments and tendons, protecting them against friction and wear-and-tear.
Age, injury and disease all deplete the body`s level of Glueasamine, an amino sugar, which is vital to the body`s connective tissue. Ligaments, tendons, joints and bones of the body literally depend upon Glucosamine for repair and regeneration. Over 50 clinical studies support the efficacy of Glucosamine.
Chondroitin Sulphate exists in the body in the form of chains of repeating sugars, and is known as the `liquid magnet` this is because Chondroitin Sulphate helps to attract fluid into the joint.
The fluid in the joint, known as `synovial fluid` the helps to cushion the joint, acting as a spongy shock absorber. The fluid also helps to attract the nutrients into the joint, that are needed by cartilage. This is a particularly important function, because cartilage lacks a blood supply, and relies on the synovial fluid for all its nourishment and lubrication.
What is Glucosamine & Chondroitin?
Glucosamine is a naturally-occurring , non-toxic biochemical constituent, formed in the body from glucose and L-glutamine.
Chondroitin is found naturally in the body in the form of molecules known as mucopolysaccharides. These molecules attract and hold water, thereby giving cartilage its elasticity and fluidity.
How does Glucosamine & Chondroitin work?
The role of Glucosamine within the body is to act as a precursor or basic building block that lays down the foundation for the regeneration and growth of the connective tissues around the joints.
Chondroitin works with Glucosamine in the body, by behaving like a `liquid magnet` within the joint. Chondroitin actually helps to repel the molecules produced by Glucosamine, and this action creates tiny spaces that form the matrix of the cartilage.
Why should I take Glucosamine & Chondroitin?
Health Perception Glucosamine & Chondroitin products provide the duel effect of both Glucosamine Sulphate KCI and Chondroitin Sulphate, and are therefore relevant for people who have a particular interest in maintaining the health of their joints.

Highly mobile joints have a complex structure and are often exposed to a high level of stress. The health of these joints is therefore critical, in order to allow full and free movement.
Age, injury and disease all deplete the body`s level of Glucosamine, an amino sugar, which is vital to the body`s connective tissue. Ligaments, tendons, joints and bones of the body literally depend upon Glucosamine for repair and regeneration. Over 50 clinical studies support the efficacy of Glucosamine.
Glucosamine is a naturally occurring amino acid formed in the body from glutamic acid and glucose. It is the nutrient specific to connective tissue, so it is important for the maintenance of joints and muscles. The major function of Glucosamine is to stimulate the manufacture of cartilage components called glycoaminoglycans (GAGS) and proteoglycans PG`s).

How does Glucosamine work?
Glucosamine exists naturally in the body as an amino sugar. The role of Glucosamine within the body is to act as a precursor or basic building block that lays down the foundation for the regeneration and growth of the connective tissue matrix around the joints. This matrix includes tendons, ligaments, cartilage, synovial fluid (the cushioning fluid that surrounds the joints), spinal disks, and mucous membranes.
Why should I take Health Perception Glucosamine?

Tablet 1 Contains:
Glucosamine for Joint Care…
Glucosamine helps to regenerate soft tissues and cartilage; Glucosamine is the nutrient specific to connective tissue, and has been shown to aid the production and regeneration of the soft tissues. We use Glucosamine sulphate 2KCl from a high quality marine source; it has undergone extensive Clinical Trials and is safe & naturally occurring, therefore recommended for long term use. We only ever use Pharmaceutical grade quality ingredients to guarantee strength and purity.
Chondroitin for Joint Care…
The Chondroitin sulphate in this product is from a high quality, 90% purity, marine source, and has undergone extensive Clinical Trials. Chondroitin is known as the “liquid magnet” because it helps to attract fluid and nutrients into the joint.
Tablet 2 Contains:
MSM (Sulphur) for Joint Care…
Sulphur (MSM) is found in every cell of the human body. We obtain the majority or our MSM intake through a varied diet; therefore supplementing natural levels is important as it can be difficult to eat enough of the right foods on a daily basis. MSM is necessary for making collagen, the primary constituent of cartilage & connective tissue. Clinical research has shown MSM to alleviate stiffness, swelling, improve mobility & enhance tissue pliability. It also promotes blood-flow, which can help to aid the healing and recovery process after physical activity or injury.
Rose hip for Joint Care…
Rose Hips are rich in Vitamins A, C and E and cartenoids including beta-carotene, Lycopene and Lutein while also containing flavanoids & beneficial fatty acids. It is easily dissolving for fast absorption and enhanced bio-availability. Only the species of Rose Hip called ``Rosa canina`` used in GlucOsamax Extra, have been shown to contain high levels of the important anti-inflammatory, galacto lipid, which may help relieve the pain and discomfort associated with OA. Rose hip can also help with the regeneration of the soft tissues.
The rose hip contained in this product is a high strength concentrated extract 4:1 of Rose Hips (Rosa canina). Each tablet contains the equivalent of 2000mg dried powdered Rose Hips which provides 500mg standardised extract.
Omega 3 for Joint Care…
Clinically proven to help relieve joint pain, stiffness, & aching muscles, It provides high levels of beneficial essential fatty acids; essential for the immune system, bone growth, vision, cellular growth, and nourishes and helps to lubricate the joints. It provides EPA and DHA which are nutrients used by the body to build cell structures and strengthen cell membranes. It is thought that EPA & DHA may also reduce the risk of coronary heart disease by regulating blood pressure and decreasing the ‘stickiness’ of the blood.

Glucosamine is extremely safe to people of all ages. No significant side-effects have been reported in any
studies. However, high dosages may cause minor gastric problems, nausea, diarrhoea, indigestion and
heartburn in some susceptible people. It should therefore be taken with meals to help avoid these problems.
Glucosamine is produced from Chitin, which is derived from crustacean, and may not be suitable for those
with severe shellfish allergies. Pregnant women should not take Glucosamine, as there is insufficient study
to determine the effect on a child or a developing foetus.
A few case reports and animal studies have raised concerns that Glucosamine might be harmful for
individuals with diabetes. It may raise blood sugar levels and also increase long-term diabetes side-effects
such as cataracts. Blood sugar levels should therefore be checked regularly. A recent case report showed
that an elderly patient had an elevated INR (international normalized ratio) after concomitant use of Warfarin
and a glucosamine & chondroitin product. It is therefore important to contact a GP if you are taking this
combination.
If you are taking any medication we always advise to check with your GP before hand.
