The synergistic formula based on Glucosamine, Chondroitin and MSM that provides support nutrients for the comfort, mobility and flexibility of the joints.
Glucosamine Chondroitin and MSM are compounds found naturally in your cartilage. Cartilage is a major type of connective tissue in your body. One of the many important purposes of cartilage is to protect and cushion the ends of bones, which is why it is found in joints. In people with osteoarthritis, this cartilage wears down, which can cause the bones to rub. Over time, this can lead to pain and decreased joint mobility, usually in the knees, hips, hands and spine.
Glucosamine Chondroitin and MSM, usually combined in a single supplement, are said to relieve arthritis pain by acting as natural anti-inflammatories and slowing cartilage damage. With more than 3.6% of the global population living with this debilitating condition, many people use or have tried to use combined glucosamine and chondroitin supplements to alleviate osteoarthritis pain.
Glucosamine Benefits
Glucosamine supplements can have important health benefits:
- Reducing joint pain - studies show this action, especially among patients diagnosed with osteoarthritis. Incidentally, glucosamine is a compound used including as an active substance for certain medicines, not just as a food supplement, in combination with methylsulfonylmethane and chondroitin. Dietary supplements containing these compounds are often recommended for people with arthritis-specific manifestations.
- Reducing inflammation - glucosamine and chondroitin supplements can help reduce chronic inflammation associated with unwanted osteo-articular manifestations.
- Improving the health of the bone system - there are studies that suggest the beneficial effects of these compounds on bones as well.
It is important to know that while allopathic treatments for osteoarthritis containing, for example, acetaminophen or ibuprofen, have immediate effects, in the case of glucosamine sulfate, it takes 4-8 weeks before the pain-relieving action can be felt. The beneficial effect of glucosamine lasts 6-12 weeks after treatment is finished. Glucosamine should not be taken for long periods or in short, recurring courses.
Chondroitin Benefits
Glucosamine supplements beneficially contribute to the repair of the body's connective tissues, including those in the joints and the gastrointestinal system. Chondroitin contributes beneficially to the retention of water in the body, and this helps to lubricate the joints and improve mobility.
Chondroitin is a major component of the body's extracellular matrix which is composed of water, proteins and polysaccharides. Chondroitin binds sugar molecules to proteins, thus having a very important role in maintaining structural integrity.
The main beneficial way chondroitin works is to stimulate cartilage regeneration. Cartilage is the connective tissue that "lines" where the joint meets the bone. Chondroitin absorbs water, thus enabling smooth movement of the joints.
- it is usually found in the structure of chondrocytes (natural components of articular cartilage), supporting the connective tissue and the elasticity of the joint through the synthesis of hyaluronic acid that favors lubrication and reduces the impact of shocks during physical activities
- balances the inflammatory response at the level of the joints by supporting the decrease in the concentrations of some pro-inflammatory components (IL1, cytokines, chemokines and growth factor)
MSM Benefits
MSM is the abbreviation for Methylsulfonylmethane, an organic sulfur compound. This compound is the third most abundant nutrient in the human body (in the vertebrae, for example). At the same time, MSM is also part of the composition of certain foods, such as: meat, vegetables and dairy products.
MSM is beneficial for bone health, being particularly effective in cases of arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. Being a calcium phosphate dissolver, MSM helps break down unhealthy calcium deposits, the main cause of degenerative diseases (Alzheimer's, Parkinson's).
Also, supplementing your diet with MSM helps to:
- improving joint flexibility;
- pain reduction;
- reduction of sweating;
- improving circulation;
- improving cell vitality.
