What is Jarrow NAG N-Acetyl Glucosamine?
It's easy to get confounded by a lot of mumbo jumbo when it comes to discussing the body's need to use amino acids and the major role they play in helping to build crucial proteins for our body's various machinations. Fortunately, Jarrow NAG N-Acetyl Glucosamine removes the need for us to worry about that the technical jargon by offering the synthetic but natural support of one of the body's most important processes.
Glucosamine is an amino sugar, or aminosaccharide which is created naturally by combining glucose with the amino acid L-Glutamine. More often than not this is a role performed naturally but in some instances, support is required.
By complexing it with an acetyl group, Jarrow NAG N-Acetyl Glucosamine offers the most stable form of Glucosamine supplementation available today.
As the body's precursor to Hyaluronic acid - the synovial fluid which lubricates each and every joint in our body, Glucosamine is vital to keeping us limber and agile in the face of increasing age. In fact amino sugars are essential components of all body tissue as well as cell membranes and structures.
Occurring naturally in the shells of insects and shellfish this natural source of Glucosamine could be the most important supplement you use today.
What is Jarrow NAG N-Acetyl Glucosamine used for?
As we age, our body's ability to synthesise Glucosamine naturally diminishes - it's one of the reasons that the lubrication in between our joints depletes later in life and we find our agility subsides and recedes with age.
Other, external factors have been shown to see a natural decline in Glucosamine production too - stress, surgery, injuries and burns are all factors that could see us requiring a synthesised supplementation of this vital aminosaccharide.
Where Glucosamine levels are not optimal we open ourselves up to all manner of potential pitfalls - weakened joints and tissue damage are just two of the areas in which we may find ourselves threatened. They also contribute towards our protein complex into which calcium crystallises to fortify bones; the mucus lining of our organs as well as tendon and ligament structure too.
By acetylating the amino sugar, Jarrow NAG N-Acetyl Glucosamine offers a far more stable and bioavailable form, meaning that it absorbs through the intestine more effectively as well as performing with increased solubility in blood plasma and an ability to travel across blood brain barrier.
