Replenex contains the full research-recommended dosage of 1,500 mg of glucosamine to help rebuild joint cartilage. Glucosamine is a natural amino sugar critical to cartilage formation. As we age, our body's production of glucosamine naturally slows down. Replenex promotes joint health by replenishing the body's own glucosamine supply. Unlike other supplements that contain glucosamine sulfate, Replenex is made with glucosamine HCl the most concentrated, absorbable form of glucosamine that has no sodium content.

Strapping with adhesive tape is important for the prevention of joint injuries, especially the ankle, knee and hand. Taping can be used during the management of injury and rehabilitation. Recurrence of injury when the person recommences training is less likely with supportive taping. Preventative taping has also been found to reduce the severity of injury to the ligament and lower recurrence of injury by up to 75%. We have a wide range of strapping tapes in our retail section.
