GLUCOSAMINE SULFATE

Glucosamine Sulfate is a naturally occurring substance found in joint structures which stimulates cartilage regeneration, and protects against joint destruction.  It alleviates the symptoms of osteoarthritis.  This supplement should be take with MSM (methylsulfonylmethane ) and CMO ( cetyl-myristoleate ) for degenerative joint conditions.  Be patient. It may take several weeks, even months, before a symptomatic relief can be realized. What has taken years to deteriorate will not be regenerated in a few weeks or even months in acute conditions. Glucosamine sulfate is an amino sugar (aminomonosaccharide) formed from glucose and the amino acid, glutamine. The body uses amino sugars to form the synovial membranes, ligaments and cartilage which make up all the joint structures of the body. Millions of people around the world are affected by osteoarthritis, the most common form of arthritis. Arthritis is characterized by joint degeneration, loss of cartilage and alterations of subchondral bone.  The knee joint is the largest and most extensive in the body, and statistically there is a 35% incidence of degeneration in the knees by age 30 and 80% incidence after age 50. Eliminate nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as Motrin, Advil and Naprosyn, Besides their gastrointestinal side effects (ulcers, bleeding), they inhibit collagen synthesis and accelerate cartilage destruction. A very effective protocol against arthritis may be the combination of curcumin and glucosamine sulfate which will combat the pain and inflammation while repairing the cartilage.  Glucosamine also rebuilds the lining of the intestinal tract.
