In modern conditions, a person needs additional intake of chondroprotective substances (chondroitin, glucosamine, MSM), because earlier, tendons, skin and cartilage of animals, birds and fish were eaten. Today, such foods are practically absent in the diet. In addition, an additional technique is indicated for metabolic disorders, excessive stress on the joints and spine, with an age-related decrease in metabolism. Glucosamine is a component of chondroitin, is part of the synovial fluid and is produced by the cartilage tissue of the joints. Its reception restores enzymatic processes in the cells of the articular cartilage and increases the permeability of the joint capsule, reduces the development of degenerative processes in the joints, restores their function, and reduces pain. Glucosamine sulfate is more effective than glucosamine hydrochloride. Chondroitin is a glycosaminoglycan, a specific component of cartilage. It is produced by the cartilage tissue of the joints and is a component of the synovial fluid. Promotes cartilage regeneration, sulfur fixation during the synthesis of chondroitinsulfuric acid, stimulates the synthesis of hyaluronic acid, storing water in the thickness of the cartilage, which improves shock absorption and increases the strength of connective tissue. It has an anti-inflammatory effect, reduces pain, increases joint mobility. Studies have shown that chondroitin sulfate is rapidly and almost completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) is an organosulfur compound with a pronounced anti-inflammatory effect. It is one of the best sources of organic sulfur - it contains 34% of this element in a bioavailable form. Reduces pain in joints and ligaments, participates in the renewal of cells, the membranes of which, under its influence, become more permeable to nutrients, is part of the proteins of muscles, ligaments and bones. The optimal dosage is 5 capsules per day. The drug is working, the crunch in the joints has decreased.
