Glucosamine contributes to the synthesis of proteoglycans, essential for maintaining cartilage structure and function. Chondroitin, for its part, helps to attract water to the cartilage, providing cushioning and flexibility. DAVINCI Labs Perna combines these nutrients in a natural source: New Zealand green-lipped mussel (\u003cem\u003ePerna canaliculus\u003c\/em\u003e), which also provides omega-3, 6 and 9 fatty acids.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNew Zealand mussel is recognized for its unique nutritional profile, which includes glucosamine and chondroitin in bioavailable forms.
