This result in exposed bone ends begin rubbed together bringing on the tender onset of osteo-arthritis. Vitabase is delighted to bring you a reasonably priced, yet efficient solution that can help you resume your regular activities and lifestyle.
Important facts to know about joint pain and arthritis
- Osteo-arthritis (the degeneration of joint cartilage) is one of the chief causes of physical disability in the United States, distressing nearly 20 million people.
- Joint pain/arthritis affects more than just our joints. It can hurt money-wise because of the high cost of treatment and lost wages. It can also deeply affect a person’s lifestyle, overall mood and type of behavior in which they contribute.
- Traditional medication does nothing to impede the process of arthritis; rather it focuses on giving patients medicine to deal with the pain.
- Over 36 percent of arthritis sufferers take nutritional supplements to help them deal with the pain.
Osteo-arthritis is a tender, degenerative disease of the cartilage and adjacent bone or joints. Most elderly people are afflicted to some degree, while younger people are also at risk, particularly if they have suffered joint trauma, have had rhythmic use of certain joints due to occupation or lifestyle, or if they are fat. It is anticipated that 20 million American adults suffer from the disease, and many of those use medication to alleviate the linked pain.
Regrettably, there is a major downside connected with many of the obtainable anti-inflammatory drugs—undesirable side effects. In the year 2005, several well-known and widely given medications were withdrawn for this very reason, thus leaving sufferers of osteo-arthritis with even fewer alternatives.
Though, in recent years two naturally occurring supplements i.e. glucosamine and chondroitin have become progressively more popular as the drug of choice for many people. Both of these substances occur naturally in the human body. Glucosamine is an amino sugar that stimulates the arrangement and repair of cartilage; chondroitin is carbohydrates that endorse elasticity and prevents other enzymes from degrading joint cartilage.
There are many available studies that reported a comparable level of pain relief obtained from glucosamine and chondroitin to that possible from medication such as aspirin and ibuprofen. Some studies also indicate that the supplements might be able to slow down the rate of further cartilage damage. But the best part is that no study has so far found any grave side effects from either of these natural products.
Some of the investigations have been criticized as perhaps having partiality or for not being conducted over a long enough periods. Conservative bodies such as the Arthritis Foundation have carefully advised sufferers of osteo-arthritis to try the supplements for themselves as there is very little risk and they may well provide the pain relief they desire.

Notes: From GlucosaPure™ brand glucosamine sulfate potassium chloride.
Glucosamine sulfate is stabilized with either sodium or potassium chloride. GlucosaPure™ is the only patented, fully-reacted glucosamine sulfate potassium chloride available (U.S. patent #5,843,923). Laboratory tests have shown that GlucosaPure™ is pure, fully-reacted glucosamine sulfate potassium chloride while other products tested were not fully reacted. Glucosamine Sulfate is naturally derived from shellfish.
Vitamin C, Manganese and Bromelain work synergistically to enhance the proven benefits of Glucosamine and Chondroitin Sulfates.
