Phytodroitin®

100% Plant-Based Alternative to Chondroitin

What is Chondroitin?

  • Chondroitin is one of the building blocks of cartilage – the tough tissue that acts as a shock absorber around the joints in humans. It’s chondroitin’s job to help your cartilage hang on to water – increasing its elasticity.
  • Chondroitin is a mucopolysaccharide composed of a chain of alternating sugars. It is a structural component of cartilage and provides much of its resistance to compression.
  • It’s traditionally sourced from shark, bovine, porcine or avian cartilage. 
  • Many studies suggest that chondroitin has clinical benefits in reducing pain from arthritis and joint stiffness.
  • Phytodroitin® is a plant-based alternative to Chondroitin suitable for Vegan and Vegetarian products, but also broader demographic products due to widespread concern about Chondroitin’s animal origin/sustainability.
  • Phytodroitin® is a complex blend of algal extracts that are shown to mimic the mucopolysaccharide structure of chondroitin.
  • Phytodroitin® is supplied as a free-flowing compressible powder. It is also cold water dispersible.
  • Recommended daily dose of 400mg.
