bottle and reap the benefits of liquid glucosamine; it's a fast-absorbing

The Science of Glucosamine, Chondroitin and MSM
Each easy-to-pour packet of Joint Movement Glucosamine in powder form
contains a single daily dose of the following active ingredients:
* 2000 mg glucosamine: a natural component of healthy joints*
* 1200 mg chondroitin: supports joint health*
* 500 mg MSM: an essential part of healthy cartilage*
More than 50 studies show how glucosamine and chondroitin help maintain
healthy joint function, cartilage and flexibility. Joint Movement Glucosamine
contains a high concentration formula with these two ingredients that were
evaluated in a recent clinical study sponsored by the National Institutes of
Health.(1) For added joint protection, Joint Movement Glucosamine contains
MSM, which has been shown to support joint comfort and mobility.(2)
"Wellesse Glucosamine is the natural choice for physically active people,
especially those who don't like to swallow large pills," said Andrews.
Joint Movement Glucosamine Powder Packets are sold in packets of 10 for a
suggested retail price of $11.99. They are available at leading retailers
such as Rite-Aid, Drugstore.com and Vitacost.com.
