Glucos/Chond Sulfate

Glucosamine and Chondroitin Sulfate: Natural Joint Support

Do you suffer from joint pain or stiffness? Vitabase is pleased to bring you an affordable yet effective solution that can help you.

In recent years two naturally occurring supplements — glucosamine and chondroitin — have become increasingly popular as the product of choice for many people. Both substances are found naturally in the human body. Glucosamine is an amino sugar that stimulates the formation and repair of cartilage; chondroitin is a carbohydrate that promotes elasticity and prevents other enzymes from degrading joint cartilage.

Studies Show Benefits of Glucosamine and Chondroitin

Many published studies reported some pain relief obtained from glucosamine and chondroitin. Some research also indicates that the supplements might be able to slow down the rate of further cartilage damage. But the really great news is that no study has so far found any serious side effects from either of these natural products.

Some research findings have been criticized for possibly being biased or not being conducted over a long enough period. Conservative bodies such as the Arthritis Foundation have cautiously advised sufferers of osteoarthritis to try the supplements for themselves since there is very little risk and because the supplements may well provide the pain relief they desire.
