Glucosamine Powder , HCl Salt

Glucosamine HCl (hydrochloride) is a white to off-white crystalline powder that is the hydrochloride salt form of glucosamine, a naturally occurring amino sugar. It is more stable and contains a higher percentage of active glucosamine by weight compared to glucosamine sulfate. Glucosamine plays a structural role in the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans, which are critical components of joint cartilage and synovial fluid.

This form is widely used in dietary supplements aimed at joint support, often in combination with chondroitin or MSM. Unlike the sulfate form, glucosamine HCl does not require added stabilizers like potassium or sodium, making it a purer and more concentrated form of glucosamine.
