Proven Relief From Worn & Damaged Joints
Our Glucosamine & Chondroitin tablets not only provide relief from worn and damaged joints, but also help the body to repair the damage, often caused by arthritis.
Glucosamine and Chondroitin are substances which are found naturally in the body. Glucosamine is a form of amino sugar which plays a role in cartilage formation and repair. Chondroitin sulphate is part of a large protein molecule called proteoglycan, which gives cartilage its elasticity. Glucosamine is also needed for the synthesis of synovial fluid, a vital cushioning substance that protects the joints from the damaging effects of friction. The Glucosamine and Chondroitin in our tablets is derived from marine sources such as the shells of shellfish.
There has been a wealth of studies examining the treatment effects of Glucosamine and Chondroitin over short periods of time. Most of these studies last only one to two months but they have indicated that patients experienced more pain reduction when taking Glucosamine and Chondroitin than patients receiving a placebo. The improvement experienced by these patients was similar to improvements experienced by patients taking nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs) that have been a mainstay of non-operative arthritis treatment. The difference is that NSAIDs carry an increased risk of side effects including gastrointestinal complaints and bleeding, and may also contribute to the progression of arthritis.
Our tablets provide a high ratio of Chondroitin (400mg) to Glucosamine HCl (500mg). This ratio is identical to that analysed in a scientifically renowned Glucosamine Arthritis Intervention Trial (GAIT). The GAIT trial showed that Glucosamine in combination with Chondroitin was significantly more effective at helping to relieve joint pain than either supplement taken alone.
Dosage
Our Glucosamine & Chondroitin tablets are stronger than many other brands, so you only need two tablets per day and not three!
Cautions
Women who are pregnant, and women who could become pregnant should not take these supplements.
Not recommended for children as these supplements have not been studied long enough to determine their effects on a child.
Because Glucosamine is an amino sugar, people with diabetes should check their blood sugar levels more frequently when taking this supplement.
If you are taking Chondroitin sulfate in addition to a blood-thinning medication or daily aspirin therapy, have your blood clotting time checked more often.
If you are allergic to shellfish, consult your doctor before deciding to take Glucosamine. In most cases, however, allergies are caused by proteins in shellfish, not chitin, a carbohydrate from which Glucosamine is extracted.
