What is in Glucosamine Chondroitin Complex?
Each row as the label prints it, per serving of 2 tablets. The capsule beside an amount places it among every product in the NIH database that lists the same ingredient: the bar is the middle half of their amounts, the line in it the median, the whiskers the 10th and 90th percentiles; the green tick is the FDA Daily Value and the red dashed tick the adult upper limit (IOM).
| Ingredient | Amount | % DV | Among products listing it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Calories | 10 Calories | ||
| Total Carbohydrates | 2 g | 1% | 58% of 21,979 products listing carbohydrate give more (median 3 g). |
| Sodium | 20 mg | 1% | 67% of 14,514 products listing sodium give more (median 55 mg). |
| Glucosamine Hydrochloride1.5 g | 1,500 mg | 5% of 628 products listing glucosamine hydrochloride give more (median 1.5 g). | |
| Chondroitin Sulfate | 200 mg | 66% of 950 products listing chondroitin sulfate give more (median 400 mg). | |
| Boron Citrate | 63 mg | The label names the compound (Boron Citrate); its amount is likely the compound's weight, not the boron it holds, so it is not placed among other products. | |
| Calcium Carbonate | 50 mg | 4%* | The label names the compound (Calcium Carbonate); its amount is likely the compound's weight, not the calcium it holds, so it is not placed among other products. |
| Hyaluronic Acidas Sodium Hyaluronate | 3.3 mg | 85% of 900 products listing hyaluronic acid give more (median 50 mg). |
* % Daily Value computed from the printed amount and the FDA Daily Value (21 CFR 101.9); the label prints none for that row.

Is that a lot?
The rows in the top or bottom tenth of the products that list the same ingredient, and any above the adult upper limit at the most servings a day the directions give:
- 85% of the 900 products that print an amount of hyaluronic acid list more than its 3.3 mg of hyaluronic acid (median 50 mg).
The NIH database records one serving a day from the label's directions; its % Daily Values are for adults and children 4 or more years of age. The directions as printed are further down this page.
The Tolerable Upper Intake Level is the most of a nutrient per day, from food, water and supplements together, that is likely to pose no risk for almost all adults (Institute of Medicine, 2011). It does not apply under medical supervision. This page compares labels; it is not medical advice.
