What are the benefits of taking a liquid Glucosamine and Chondroitin supplement?
Glucosamine and chondroitin help to maintain healthy joint function and cartilage, and promote flexibility. In liquid form the key ingredients are quickly absorbed by your body.
How soon will I notice a difference after taking the Wellesse Joint Movement Glucosamine and Chondroitin liquid?
Results will vary from person to person depending on many different factors. However, you may see results in just 4-8 weeks.
Why did Wellesse choose to use glucosamine hydrochloride used instead of glucosamine sulphate?
Glucosamine hydrochloride is the pharmaceutically pure form of glucosamine and is more soluble in a liquid form.
Why does the Joint Movement Glucosamine and Chondroitin liquid darken over time?
Joint Movement Glucosamine contains natural ingredients that will change color over time. This does not affect the potency of the product in any way.
Where does the glucosamine come from?
Glucosamine is purified from the shells of crab and shrimp.
Where can I buy the 33oz size of the Joint Movement Glucosamine and Chondroitin liquid?
The 33 oz. size is currently available at club stores such as Costco, Sam's Club and BJ's. It may not be available at all locations. This size may also be purchased online at Costco.com.
What is the best time of day to take Wellesse Joint Movement Glucosamine?
Joint Movement Glucosamine should be taken at the same time every day. This is mainly so you remember to take it consistently.

Clinical Studies:
Glucosamine/Chondroitin Arthritis Intervention Trial
Reginster JY, et al. (2003). Lancet 357:251-256, 2001. Archives of Internal Medicine 163:1514-1522, 2003.
The Glucosamine/chondroitin Arthritis Intervention Trial (GAIT) was a large, randomized, placebo-controlled trial conducted at several sites across the United States. The GAIT team, funded by NCCAM and the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases, actually conducted two studies:
- a primary, or original, study that investigated whether glucosamine and/or chondroitin could treat the pain of knee osteoarthritis.
- an ancillary, or additional, study that investigated whether the dietary supplements could diminish the structural damage of knee osteoarthritis.

Efficacy of methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) in osteoarthritis pain of the knee:
a pilot clinical trial.
Kim LS, et al. (2006). Osteoarthritis Cartilage 14(3):286-94.
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was conducted. Fifty men and women, 40-76 years of age with knee OA pain were enrolled in an outpatient medical center. Intervention was MSM 3g or placebo twice a day for 12 weeks (6g/day total). Outcomes included the Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index visual analogue scale (WOMAC), patient and physician global assessments (disease status, response to therapy), and SF-36 (overall health-related quality of life). RESULTS: Compared to placebo, MSM produced significant decreases in WOMAC pain and physical function impairment (P<0.05). No notable changes were found in WOMAC stiffness and aggregated total symptoms scores. MSM also produced improvement in performing activities of daily living when compared to placebo on the SF-36 evaluation (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: MSM (3g twice a day) improved symptoms of pain and physical function during the short intervention without major adverse events.

"I've tried other major brand glucosamine supplements, and Wellesse Joint Movement Glucosamine is far superior to them all. The berry flavor tastes great, and after about seven days I felt quite a bit better. I take it on an empty stomach when I first wake up. I have gotten some friends to try it too and they said how unbelievable it is that they feel better in such a short time. They all want me to buy them bottles when I go to Costco in Detroit. Keep up the good work!"
