Chondroitin
Is the chondroitin effective?
Chondroitin is a chondrin derivative naturally found in animals’ connective tissues. In humans, it plays an important role for the elasticity of cartilaginous tissue, as it helps it to retain the water. Nowadays chondroitin is a common health supplement in many countries all over the world. However, the debates about its effectiveness are still going on. The point is that chondroitin itself isn’t capable to treat the cartilage diseases or the osteochondrosis. However, multiple studies proved that taking chondroitin as a supplement significantly improves the condition in patients with various diseases. Here are some examples:
- Chondroitin helps to manage pain in knee and hip, slow down the progression and also promotes the recovery in patients with osteoarthritis (Zhu Xiaoyue, Sang Lingli et al. "Effectiveness and safety of glucosamine and chondroitin for the treatment of osteoarthritis: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials". Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2018, 13 (1): 170).
- Regular intake of chondroitin reduces serum C-reactive protein level and cytokine activity, meaning that it helps to decrease systemic inflammation and alter other pathways (S. L. Navarro, E. White et al. “Randomized Trial of Glucosamine and Chondroitin Supplementation on Inflammation and Oxidative Stress Biomarkers and Plasma Proteomics Profiles in Healthy Humans”. PLOS One, 2015; 10(2)).
- A study involving more than 70000 elderly patients being watched for years proved that chondroitin is related to the reduced mortality as its anti-inflammatory effects reduce the risk of the various diseases (G. A. Bell, E. D. Kantor. “Use of Glucosamine and Chondroitin in Relation to Mortality”. European Journal of Epidemiology, 2012 Aug; 27(8): 593–603).
In this category you can purchase the most popular chondroitin supplements with the direct shipping from Japan.
