PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

N-acetylglucosamine (NAG) is the basic building block of many important polysaccharides in biological cells, especially in the exoskeleton of crustaceans. It is an important prerequisite for the synthesis of bifidobacterial factors and has many important physiological functions in organisms. For example, it can be used as a monomer of chitin and connected through β-1,4-glycosidic bonds to form chitin. The chemical formula is C8H15NO6. It is a white powder. It is easily soluble in water. It has anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor and antioxidant effects. It is a drug for the treatment of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis in clinical practice. It is widely used in food, medicine and cosmetics. It can be used as a food antioxidant and an additive for infant food, and a sweetener for diabetic patients. It is mainly used in clinical practice to enhance the function of the human immune system, inhibit the excessive growth of cancer cells or fibroblasts, and inhibit and treat cancer and malignant tumors; it can effectively treat various inflammations and also has a therapeutic effect on osteoarthritis and joint pain.

PRODUCT USE

Health Products

Because glucosamine is a precursor of glycosaminoglycans (glycosaminoglycans), which are the main components of joint cartilage, glucosamine is often used as an adjuvant treatment for osteoarthritis. Supplementing with glucosamine may help rebuild cartilage and treat arthritis, but the medical community is still inconclusive about its effectiveness. Experiments have shown that glucosamine is no more effective than the placebo used in the reference group in relieving pain.
