Glucosamine & MSM 60 Caps, NOW Foods

How is glucosamine manufactured?

Glucosamine is supplied mostly by China. The shells of shrimp and crabs
have their proteins and minerals removed producing Chitin or poly N-acetylglucosamine.
Manufacturers use acid with a depolymerizing and deacetylating process to produce
glucosamine hydrochloride or glucosamine sulfate.

What is the source of your Chondroitin, and is it BSE free?

NOW Chondroitin is derived from bovine tracheal tissue. The cattle are raised
in China. As with all of our raw materials, we screen Chondroitin very carefully
for the presence of any undesirable microbes, and is BSE Free.
