At a glance

Nordwell builds this around vitamin D3 from lichen, vitamin K2, magnesium and a fermented vegan glucosamine, so it avoids the shellfish issue entirely. Aimed at bone maintenance as much as joint comfort.

It may suit you if

  • You have a shellfish allergy or eat plant-based
  • You are thinking about bone density as well as joints
  • You want detailed labelling

You may prefer something else if

  • You want the lowest-cost joint option
  • You already take vitamin D separately

What is in it

The label, in full

Every active ingredient amount is printed on the label.

Glucosamine sulfate
1,200mg (fermented)

A long-established joint ingredient, usually shellfish-derived unless the label states a fermented vegan source. Typical serving across the market: 750mg – 1500mg. Published human research: extensive.

Vitamin D3
25µg

Public health guidance in the UK suggests considering a daily supplement through autumn and winter. Vegan D3 from lichen is widely available. Typical serving across the market: 10µg – 25µg (400 – 1000 IU). Published human research: extensive.

Magnesium bisglycinate
150mg elemental

Magnesium bound to the amino acid glycine. Generally better tolerated by the digestive system than magnesium oxide, and usually more expensive. Typical serving across the market: 100mg – 375mg elemental. Published human research: moderate.

Other ingredients

Vitamin K2 MK-7 75µg, Vegetable capsule shell.

Cost per serving is the fairest way to compare, because pack sizes vary enormously within the same category. It still does not account for how much active ingredient is in each serving — check that too.
