Bone and joint conditions are the most common cause of severe long-term pain and physical disability worldwide affecting millions of people. Among ageing Indians, major problems that affect joints and bone health are arthritis, osteoporosis and back pain. Arthritis develops gradually over several years. Its main symptoms are redness and inflammation of joints. There are many forms of arthritis. The most common type of arthritis is, Osteoarthritis – associated with wear and tear of cartilage.
Who is at risk?
* It can affect anyone regardless of their age, gender or race
* Women are affected more than men. They usually develop osteoarthritis after the age of 40. Major causes of these bone and joint related conditions are hereditary factors, infections (bacterial and viral) and lack of joint fluid. With age, the structure of bone changes and results in loss of bone tissue, that weakens bones and increases the risk of fractures from a sudden bump or fall.
Age related changes in Bones and Joints:
* An inactive lifestyle causes bone wastage
* Menopause and hormonal changes in women triggers the loss of minerals in bone tissue. In men, the gradual decline in certain hormones leads to the later development of osteoporosis
* Bones lose calcium and other minerals with age
* Bones are cushioned by cartilage that lines the joints. A lubricating fluid inside the joint (synovial fluid) allows joints to move freely
* With age, joint movement becomes stiffer and less flexible because the lubricating fluid inside the joints decreases and the cartilage becomes thinner due to excessive wear and tear
* Ligaments also shorten and lose flexibility, making joints feel stiff. Many of these age-related changes in bones and joints are caused by lack of exercise. Movement of the joint helps keep the fluid moving. Nutritional supplements also help to relieve symptoms of arthritis, osteoporosis and the pain associated with it. In addition to supplements, intake of adequate milk, fruits and vegetables also promotes healthy bone formation.
GLUCOSAMINE
What is Glucosamine?
Glucosamine is the main building block for semi-fluids that lubricate the joints. Glucosamine is Glucosaminoglycan (GAG), a component of all human tissues, especially high in concentration in the cartilages. GAG's are a long chain of amino acids that are found in high concentration in Sea Shells. It is naturally synthesised by addition of an amino group to glucose, followed by acetylation. Its main contents are glucose, glutamine & sulphur. Glucosamine is an essential component for the body's synthesis of lubricants and shock absorbing mechanisms necessary to maintain & restore healthy joint performance.
What is Chondroitin?
Chondroitin is a molecule that occurs naturally in the body. It is a major component of cartilage, the tough connective tissue that cushions the joints. Chondroitin helps keep cartilage healthy by absorbing fluid (particularly water) into the connective tissue. It may also block enzymes that break down cartilage, and it provides the building blocks for the body to produce new cartilage. Glucosamine is often combined with Chondroitin, a molecule naturally present in cartilage, together they stimulate the creation of proteoglycans that lubricates and nourish joints. Chondroitin gives cartilage elasticity and is believed to prevent the destruction of cartilage by enzymes. Glucosamine and Chondroitin, combined are proven to act and help beneficially in case of osteoarthritis, because of their ability to aid and repair the cartilage and prevent further damage.
GLUCOSAMINE HYDROCHLORIDE
As we age, the body's ability to produce glucosamine can decrease and this causes joint cartilage to lose it water holding capacity. The cartilage breaks and becomes less effective as a shock absorber, leading to joint stiffness. Supplementing the body's natural glucosamine production has been shown in clinical trials to repair and rebuild worn or damaged cartilage. As the condition of the joint cartilage improves, pain is reduced and mobility is increased.
BENEFITS OF ACTIVE INGREDIENTS
* Glucosamine may be helpful in the building of new cartilage and the protection and maintenance of existing cartilage
* It is also known to stimulate synovial fluid production and assists in lubrication of joints
* It may help in the easing of pain and inflammation
Dosage : 1 tablet twice daily after meals
