| Glucosamine
& Chondroitin |
|
A nutritional supplement
that is receiving increasingly greater
media exposure and consumer interest with
respect to joint health is Glucosamine
Sulfate. Glucosamine is one of the major
building blocks for the body's natural
synthesis of the critical lubricants and
shock absorbers necessary to restore and
maintain healthy joint performance.
Glucosamine is a precursor to the
generation of glycosaminologycans and
makes up 50% of the composition of
hyaluronic acid, the natural lubricant
found in synovial fluid. Both of these
products are key components in the
biosynthesis of collagen and the very
large, shock absorbing molecules called
proteoglycans that are integral
constituents of the cartilage matrix. By
supplementing the Glucosamine naturally
present, the body is able to facilitate
the manufacture of collagen and
proteoglycans necessary for the
restoration of healthy articular
cartilage in injured joints and for the
resupply of lubricant in the synovial
fluid. When clinically evaluated for
efficacy in the treatment of joint
problems, Glucosamine has reportedly
delivered the following results: -
Significantly out-preformed ibuprofen
with respect to reduction in patients
suffering from knee joint problems. -
Rated "Good" or
"Sufficient" in 95% of 1,208
patients evaluated with respect to the
therapeutic efficacy in the management of
arthrosis. - Accelerated recovery and
partially restored articular function of
the knee. - Significantly relived
symptoms (joint tenderness and restricted
movement). - Almost double the speed and
magnitude of improvement in articular
function of the knee. - Chondroitin
sulfates are integral components of all
connective tissues, especially cartilage
of joints and blood vessels. -
Chondroitin sulfates give cartilage its
resilience and cushioning properties by
binding water. - Purified chondroitin
sulfates are absorbed into the
bloodstream in humans after oral
ingestion, and are retained by connective
tissues.
