Glucosamine & Health

Glucosamine is a naturally occurring substance in our bodies which contributes to the health of your cartilage. Good cartilage is essential to the body in order to maintain healthy joints and overall flexibility. As we age, cartilage will naturally break down over time, and the glucosamine in our bodies is sometimes not substantive enough to repair it. For continued good health and a full life, it is at this time when supplementation of glucosamine may be beneficial.For those in current need of this essential life step, know that this is a completely natural process, and when properly supplemented, you have the opportunity to live a free, full and healthy life of adventure and action.

A lack of glucosamine in the body can lead to osteoarthritis, bad knees, back pain, and many other conditions and types of joint pain that need not trouble you. Be sure to tell your doctor if you have had any joint injuries in the past, which may contribute to chronically worsening joint pain and osteoarthritis.

How to Supplement Your Glucosamine

There are currently many glucosamine supplements for osteoarthritis treatment on the market today, but this does not mean that all are created equal. Especially in Australia, with the lack of regulation over this particular area, manufacturers are allowed to mislead consumers as to the true strength of their products. For instance, a manufacturer may name their product "Glucosamine Sulphate 500 mg" when the product may only actually contain 375 mg of actual glucosamine sulphate. Also, even though many products may contain a certain amount of glucosamine, this does not mean that your body can or does absorb it all. Manufacturers of these products are not required to tell you how much of their product can actually be intaken by the body to help with conditions such as osteoarthritis and chronic joint pain, which of course hurts the patient in the long run. Keep a special eye out for products which contain glucosamine in its complex form, which is "Glucosamine Sulphate Potassium Chloride Complex." The Glucosamine Sulphate Potassium Chloride Complex contains only 75% of the ingredient which actively helps rebuild your cartilage, which leads to incredibly misleading dosages. Joint pain and osteoarthritis symptoms will persist over the long run with such a misleading dosage, especially in more advanced cases. Research suggests that Glucosamine supplementation is effective in two forms and dosages: Glucosamine Hydrochloride at 1500 mg per day, and/or Glucosamine Sulphate at 1500 mg per day. Also, Glucosamine Chondroitin is known to be an especially effective compound which may help with inflammatory joint pain and osteoarthritis. To make sure you are clear on the truth about your product, if you are basing your daily dosage of 1500 mg on Glucosamine Sulphate Potassium Chloride Complex, then you are not taking the clinically proven dose, and you are not getting the best treatment for your osteoarthritis and chronic joint pain! Make sure to check the ingredient list of any glucosamine product that you choose to take, especially if the symptoms of osteoarthritis and joint pain have been persisting after prolonged usage.

True Strength Glucosamine

In order to get the best treatment for your arthritis, you must stick to true strength glucosamine products, or products that contain full dosages of the clinically proven forms of glucosamine named above.
