Before we start making a Leyden Jar, take all of that sticky stuff off! It can reduce the performance of the Leyden Jar, or even cause problems if you don't take the sticky tags off!
Hcl does mean Hydrochloric Acid, but the item that was in the bottle Glucosamine Hcl. The compound uses Hcl salts* to break down the raw compound into its purer form. I am not a chemist and I cannot tell you how it is done but most medicine compounds use this method. look ant any PDR or Pill Reference it will tell what there made of. See this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucosamine. Glucosamine Is the a amino sugar to help fix your joints. Since glucosamine is a precursor for glycosaminoglycans, and glycosaminoglycans are a major component of joint cartilage, supplemental glucosamine may help to prevent cartilage degeneration and treat arthritis.
* (Hcl salts) Converting insoluble amines into hydrochlorides is a common way to make them water- and acid-soluble. This is particularly desirable for substances used in medications. Many pharmaceutical substances are prepared as hydrochlorides so that they may be quickly released in the gastrointestinal tract; the body usually absorbs a hydrochloride within fifteen or thirty minutes. Very often hydrochlorides of amines have longer shelf-lives than their respective free bases. Kristyanna1019
