Arthritis supplements
Karri Koivula
While not everybody agrees that supplements are useful, there is
quite a lot of anecdotal evidence to support them.
Couple of most hyped supplements for arthritis include
glucosamine and chondroitin.
Glucosamine is an amino sugar that may have a major role in
cartilage repair, it can also have minor anti inflammatory
effects.
Chondroitin is also component of cartilage, it works very much
similarly to glucosamine.
They can be very useful when the pain is directly cause by
cartilage breakdown.
There’s some scientific evidence to back up their usefulness,
and they might be worth trying, especially in case of
osteoarthritis.
But, remember that glucosamine & chondroitin are sold as dietary
supplements, and supplements aren’t regulated with the scrutiny
of drugs.
So, make sure to purchase from reputable sources, or better yet
buy a branded product, and you’ll minimize the risks of ending
up with an unworthy product that doesn’t even have a change to
work.
