What ingredient necessitates the clause, "Do not exceed recommended dosage?" Many take more Glucos/ Chondroit, for efficacy & this then prohibits it.

These warnings are a government requirement and by law must be posted on all supplements.

I am not a medical professional and I don't use more than the dosage because I get great results. I will take a guess and say that it is basically a "CYA" (cover your a**) clause because some people might be sensitive to something in it or because different age/weight/issues call for different doses but they have to go with the "lowest" safe dose to avoid people improperly dosing and then trying to sue for damages.

glucosamine=1500mg, chondroitin=1200mg and msm=700mg. I prefer it with additional hyaluronic acid ingredient. So I just order them. I do not know how many mg in hyaluronic acid yet, a trade of msm

No, this supplement does not. It contains MSM which is good for cartilage.I took the chondroitin in their other product and felt there was little difference with it. The difference in price was also noticeable. So, I felt the Glucosamine with MSM for now, was sufficient.

The source for glucan is probably all three I researched this through webmd and Wikipedia. I think priority one makes a quality product just remember that vitamins and supplements are not regulated by the FDA they are considered healthy until they are not

I switched to NaturVet glucosamine DS w/chrondroitin. Stage 1 joint care. I give 3 tabs in am and 2 tabs in pm. I have a 45# 11 year old border collie. She also gets a heaping tsp of organic coconut oil every am.

1,500 mg Glucosamine & 25 mg Chondroitin are the "main" ingredients. Product is liquid and allows body to easily absorb.

It is a protein supplement, not a meal replacement... I assume that's the legal reason anyway. A balanced, healthy diet requires more than just protein.

The pills are probably comparable to most glucosamine-chondroitin and calcium supplement pills.Sounds as if you'd probably have some problems with it. Maybe you could open the capsulesand stir the contents into a glass of water?

It is better NOT to take it at all. Control your diet and workout to your body's level. Stay healthy by not using supplements.

The FDA does not approve dietary supplements. Manufacturers must register their facilities but do not need to seek FDA approval before distributing dietary supplements and in fact the FDA will never approve a dietary supplement. Manufacturers and distributors must make sure that all claims and information on the product label and in other labeling are truthful and not misleading.

Better thsn pastilles. One is a full dose if rescue remedy. Dissolve in your mouth.

The ingredients are: Glucosamine Hydrochloride - minimum 500 mg; Sodium Chondroitin Sulfate - minimum 400 mg, Manganese - minimum 5 mg - hope this helps.

My dog took the extra strength hip and joint tablets, which contained 750 mg glucosamine and 400 mg chondroitin per tab. Dosage amounts to give dog are indicated on bottle, determined by dog's weight.

Check the ingredients. Glucosamine is best with condroitin and should be at least 1500 mg gluc. and 1200 mg cond. But be aware that they're big. My orthopedist also recommended an addition of 500mg NEM ( natural eggshell membrane) sold separately which has seemed to help my knees. You can Google it.

I can't believe you could/would become immune to a natural sugar. You may have to increase your dosage if you are experiencing recurring symptoms. I have done that on occasion, and it has nipped it in the bud. It's not toxic or harmful, so I would feel comfortable making this suggestion to you as a disclaimer of course. I am no doctor! :)

The label says there is LESS THAN 1% of sucralose and the healthy ingredients far outweigh the "junk". My husband is diabetic and had an open heel wound that would not close for six months sending his blood sugars even higher. A nurse friend told me about Premier Protein, the doctor approved the product and after one month the wound finally closed. If you can tolerate sugar, go for Boost or Ensure!
