5% Nutrition Joint Defender

5% Nutrition's maximum joint support formula for heavy lifters, with glucosamine, MSM, type II collagen and hyaluronic acid

Joint Defender is the joint support formula 5% Nutrition built for people who load their knees, elbows and shoulders hard every week. A daily serving of 8 capsules has 1,500 mg of shellfish-free glucosamine sulfate, 1,000 mg of MSM, 1,000 mg of KollaGen II-xs type II collagen from chicken sternum cartilage, 500 mg of chondroitin sulfate and 125 mg of hyaluronic acid, plus L-proline, L-lysine, cat's claw, turmeric extract and BioPerine black pepper extract.

Every amount is listed on the label, with no proprietary blend. Take all 8 capsules once a day or split them 4 in the morning and 4 in the evening; each 200-capsule bottle has 25 servings. 5% recently moved it from a white label to a red one and says it's the same product.

Made in a facility that may also process milk, egg, soy, shellfish, fish, tree nuts, wheat, peanuts and sesame. Bottles carry a California Prop 65 warning for lead.

Common questions

Is the glucosamine from shellfish?

No. The label lists it as shellfish free. The type II collagen and hyaluronic acid come from chicken sternum cartilage.

How do I take it?

8 capsules once a day, or 4 in the morning and 4 in the evening. A 200-capsule bottle gives you 25 days.

Is the red bottle different from the white one?

5% Nutrition calls the red label a new look for the same product, and the amounts on both match.

Can I take it with blood thinners or birth control?

Talk to your healthcare provider first. The label specifically names anticoagulant, birth control and diuretic medications, along with diabetes and pregnancy.
