Detailed Description
Osteoarthritis has emerged as one of the most common chronic illnesses that we encounter as we age. This age-related condition has no known cause, with the degeneration of cartilage often becoming so severe that bone-to-bone exposure in joints such as the knees or hips resembles the brakes of a car operating without pads.
Chondroitin and glucosamine represent the two major components for joint-cartilage synthesis. Chondroitin is readily available as a raw material, and glucosamine stimulates the production of glycoamineglycan, which is a main structural component of cartilage.
The 5:4 ratio of glucosamine to chondroitin work synergistically to stimulate the production of cartilage, maintain lubrication of joints, and inhibit the production of enzymes that destroy cartilage.
