Product Information

Chondroitin sulphate occurs naturally in the body’s connective tissues and is an important structural component of cartilage - the tough protein that lines the surface of bones. It continues to be a popular choice amongst the over 50s and is often taken alongside glucosamine products.

Our high-performance formula contains safe but relevant levels of Phytodroitin, equivalent to 540mg chondroitin, in each tablet.

Keen to find a more sustainable provenience of traditional animal-based chondroitin, we have sourced a 100% plant derived alternative, Phytodroitin™. Registered with the Vegan Society and Vegetarian Society, Phytodroitin™ is an ethical choice that mimics the structure and composition of animal-based chondroitin.

Derived from a blend of seaweed extracts, Phytodroitin™ is formulated using only purpose-grown botanical ingredients, to not only ensure complete sustainability but also ensure adequate quality and purity.

We’ve chosen to encapsulate our high-strength Phytodroitin™ 600mg in easy-to-swallow tablets instead of capsules, as this material can deliver highly concentrated amounts of raw material.

To meet our strict quality standards, we manufacture and package our tablets in UK factories working to Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP).

This product is suitable for vegetarians and vegans.

Phytodroitin™ makes the perfect partner to many supplements including glucosamine, turmeric, rosehip and ginger.

"Excellent option for Vegetarians"
By Therese Shellabarger , 11 Oct 2023
Verified Purchase
I wanted to have a better option, because I have a***ma, and most of the compounds have sulfur compounds that might be triggering. In addition, the regular source of this compound is from sharks, and as a vegetarian and a conservationist, I didn''t like that. Therefore, I went looking for an alternative and this is the best one.

"Poor Customer Service"
By Thackers , 20 Aug 2023
This is definitely less effective than the previous product.
Poor marketing for sure.
A company that did its homework wouldn’t remove a product line without knowing it’s replacement would increase sales .

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I am sorry to hear you have not found it useful so far. We usually recommend trying this for 3 months to assess the effectiveness. We have done extensive research and the Phytodroitin has a very similar structure to the Chondroitin. Therefore, we would expect it to work in the same way in the body. We will contact you separately about this matter.

"Not entirely happy "
By Sussi Maguire , 11 Aug 2023

This is my 1st encounter with the plant based version. Now taken it for about a month and its about 70% effective compared to the old version. Fingers are starting to be painful again, which in combination with the liquid glucosamine, has worked very well! Why can''t you keep the old version and us customers have a choice?

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We decided to provide a plant-based version as it is more sustainable to produce and is now suitable for vegans. We recommend trying this new version for at least 3 months to assess the effectiveness. I have contacted you separately about this matter.

"I ordered Chondroitin NOT Phytoroitin!"
By Jim Coley , 23 Mar 2023
Verified Purchase
I''ve been using Chondroitin with excellent effect for several years to reduce pain in my arthritic finger joints. I actually ordered Chondroitin BUT was sent PHYTODROITIN instead. I read the bumph that said it was equivalent but now 3 weeks into taking this as a replacement I''m back in pain! Plus it has an unpleasant taste/aftertaste unlike the previous Natures Best Chondroitin which I''ve used previously and successfully.

We have moved to a vegan glucosamine and to Phytodroitin as an alternative to animal sourced chondroitin. This makes the range suitable for vegetarians and vegans but also means that the products are a lot more environmentally sound as the production of these ingredients uses far less water and other resources.

The manufacturers have done is a great deal of research showing how chemically close Phytodroitin is to animal-based chondroitin. They believe that this demonstrates that it exerts the same effects. Phytodroitin has been in mass market for several years, with many other countries using it for some time. First and long-term users are not finding any detriment to moving over.

I have contacted you directly to discuss this further.
