Glucosamine
Sulfate is the only form of glucosamine proven by over 300
scientific investigations and 20 double-blind studies to stimulate
joint repair and relieve pain.
Glucosamine
is a molecule manufactured by the body. Inside the joint, it
stimulates the production of glycosaminoglycans (GAG's) which are
the main structural material of joints. Studies suggest that a
decline of the body's manufacture of glucosamine may be the primary
cause of osteoarthritis.
Elemental sulfur
is a carrier molecule for glucosamine and it stimulates the
production of joint substances (GAG's) in it's own right. When bound
to glucosamine, sulfur acts to carry the glucosamine molecule into
the joint. It is both a carrier for the glucosamine and an activator
of joint substance production.
Other forms
of glucosamine, including glucosamine hydrochloride and N-acetyl-glucosamine
(NAG) do not have the carrier/activator sulfate molecule present.
There is far less scientific validation for their use. Chondroitin
sulfate is poorly absorbed orally (less than 13%) and does not have
the proven effect and research behind it that glucosamine sulfate
does.
Pharmaceutical grade Glucosamine
Sulfate is proven to:
- Stimulate joint repair (by increasing GAG
synthesis)
- Offer significant pain relief (at 2 weeks of
treatment, pain relief is greater with NSAIDs. At 4 weeks of
treatment, pain relief is greater with glucosamine sulfate.)
Glucosamine
sulfate has
no known side effects unless a person is allergic to seafood.
