LEHVOSS Nutrition always strive to expand our portfolio, selecting only the highest quality ingredients to share with our customers, which is why we are very excited to announce we have added Vegan D-Glucosamine to our portfolio, available as two grades (HCl and 2 KCl). Both these grades are suitable for vegetarians and vegans and allergen-free, whilst also being animal-friendly! Alongside this, Vegan D-Glucosamine has lower environmental impact – compared to that of chitin-derived shellfish products.

Produced by fermentation, according to research, Vegan D-Glucosamine provides the same health benefits that have made Glucosamine a popular ingredient in supplementation over the years. A study comparing the effects of shellfish-derived glucosamine and fermentation-derived glucosamine found that both had positive impacts on joint health¹.

New data shows over 5 billion people (68% of the global population) lack sufficient iodine, which may lead to thyroid-related issues. Since thyroid health is key for regulating metabolism, growth, and development, iodine deficiency may affect immune function. PureSea®, a whole-food ingredient, offers a natural source of Iodine.

Why? Thyroid hormones (T3 and T4) are essential for immune function as they regulate immune cell activity and cytokine production. An underactive thyroid, often linked to low iodine intake, may cause systemic inflammation that impairs immune responses. Stress also affects the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid (HPT) axis which may lead to altered thyroid hormone levels and compromise immunity, while potentially causing depression and anxiety, creating a cycle that negatively impacts thyroid and immune health¹.
