What is Glucosamine?

Glucosamine is a naturally occurring molecule in the body and an amino sugar that plays a vital role in synthesizing glycosylated proteins and lipids. Glycosylation is a process wherein glycans are attached through an enzymatic process. Primarily found in most body tissues, the largest concentration of Glucosamine is in the joints and cartilage of the body, where its purpose is to develop and maintain cartilage health. Glucosamine is one of the amplest monosaccharides. It is commercially manufactured through the hydrolysis of crustacean exoskeletons and fermentation of such grains as corn or wheat. Suggestions show that Glucosamine assists in the reduction of the collagen degradation rate.
