NOW Cetyl Myristoleate 500 mg 180 Capsules

NW3215

NOW Cetyl Myristoleate 500 mg 180 Capsules

Cetyl Myristoleate (CM) is a naturally occurring fatty acid ester derived from both vegetable and animal sources. It's a combination of a fatty acid, myristoleaic acid, and cetyl alcohol. This combination produces an especially slippery substance (CM), which assists glycosaminoglycans, such as chondroitin, in the lubrication of articular cartilage. Slippery articular cartilage allows bones and muscles to slide smoothly over cartilage, reducing wear-and-tear and supporting healthy joint function*. Dr. Harry Diehl, a researcher at the U.S. National Institutes of Health, is credited with the discovery of cetyl myristoleate in 1962.

NOW Cetyl Myristoleate (CM) is a modified medium chain fatty acid ester that is vegetable derived. Clinical experience shows that CM has a long life in the body because it is an ester form that is naturally resistant to oxidation. CM continues to work in the body for relatively lengthy periods after supplementation ends. We recommend using NOW Cetyl Myristoleate (CM) in conjunction with Glucosamine and MSM for superior, synergistic activity.
