Natural Treatment for Osteoarthritis

Instead of just dulling your pain and brain with drugs or getting costly dangerous surgery, many people in Europe, Asia, and a few in the USA are now treating the symptoms of osteoarthritis. These people are getting excellent results using a combination of natural supplements that slow and eventually eliminate the disease in many patients.

The approach includes a combination of two nutritional supplements called glucosamine and chondroitin sulfates. Both glucosamine and chondroitin are available without a doctor's prescription.

These are substances we already consume and our bodies produce in very small quantities. Glucosamine and chondroitin sulfates have no known negative side effects unlike painkillers such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatories and cortisone injections which can do significant damage to your body.

Glucosamine and chondroitin sulfates can actually help your body repair its damaged or weakened cartilage by assisting your body's own natural repair mechanisms.

Chondroitin Very Effective:

In a sixth-month-long, double-blind study, chondroitin sulfate had long - lasting benefits on normal range of motion. In this randomized test, 146 patients with knee stress were given either a placebo or chondroitin sulfate for six months. Research showed that those on chondroitin sulfate responded slower but for a longer period of time, up to three months.

Chondroitin sulfate acts like a collection of magnets attracting fluid into proteoglycan molecules. This is important to your body for two main reasons:

  1.  this fluid sweeps nutrients into your cartilage and

  2.  the fluid acts as a spongy shock absorber.

Chondroitin can protect your existing cartilage from age-related stress. It does this by blocking certain cartilage destroying enzymes and enzymes that prevent transporting of nutrients.

Chondroitin sulfates have been found effective for the common aches associated with aging. Glucosamine or chondroitin can work synergistically when taken together to stimulate cartilage production. Your body can heal itself by using both of these supplements. The glucosamine and chondroitin combination is a powerful "natural" support for aging joints. 

Chondroitin Sulfate is also known as:  Chondroitin, Chondroitin Sulfate-A, chondroitin-6-sulfate
