Chondroitin & Glucosamine Supplements

Popular amongst sufferers of arthritis and joint pain, the powerful chondroprotective agents known as glucosamine (an amino sugar) and chondroitin (a derivative of the protein/carbohydrate complex ‘chondrin’) are taken as a supplement for their role in the production of cartilage, helping to support better joint health and mobility. A lack of chondroitin sulphate is believed to be a contributory factor in the development of osteoarthritis in particular, meaning supplementation of these key nutrients may well be a good idea.
