Glucosamine Tablets & Supplements: For Bone Health

*Please note that Glucosamine is derived from shellfish and is not vegetarian.

Glucosamine tablets are common OTC dietary supplements used for arthritis and osteoarthritis because of the claim that they have anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties. 

Natural sources of nutrients are usually sufficient for healthy bones and joints in the early stages of our lives. As we age, we need additional care. We may also develop arthritis and osteoarthritis that are painful degeneration of our bones. These conditions require medication.

Glucosamine is also combined with Chondroitin and Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) for better results. These tablets are possibly effective and usually safe. However, please consult your doctor before you take them because they are only aids to other treatment methods.

Glucosamine is a compound that is naturally made in humans. It is involved in the creation of molecules that form cartilage. The body uses glucosamine sulfate, to stimulate cells to create one of the main building blocks of joint cartilage, proteoglycans. 

Chondroitin is an important structural component of cartilage. Chondroitin sulfate attracts and holds large amounts of water to the cartilage-building proteoglycan molecules. Since cartilage has no blood supply, this fluid is necessary to nourish and lubricate joints. 

MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) is a natural sulfur-containing molecule and efficient source of sulfur that is used by many of the body's structural molecules, including joint cartilage. 

Purayati offers high-quality Glucosamine supplements in combination with Chondroitin and MSM. It is a package of 90 tablets Glucosamine tablets and is NOT VEGETARIAN because they are extracted from shellfish and bovine sources.

What is Glucosamine, Chondroitin, and MSM?

We naturally produce three chemical substances Glucosamine, Chondroitin, and MSM in our body. They are also produced commercially. They have individual functions in the human body that are listed below: 

• Glucosamine is a form of sugar (the simplest form of carbohydrates in our body but one that doesn’t affect blood sugar levels or insulin sensitivity). Glucosamine for joints helps in the development of cartilage-forming molecules. Some studies suggest that they help in the restoration of cartilages and helps repair cartilage wear and tear. However, this is still under research.
• Chondroitin is also a form of sugar that binds to proteins and contains sulfur. It is a key structural component of cartilages; it has a supporting function in joints because it acts as a cushion that eliminates friction between bones and maintains flexibility, and it is also a hydrating agent for cartilages because it attracts water and other fluids.
• Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) is a compound containing sulfur. It possibly supports tendons and muscles. There have been fewer scientific tests conducted on MSM compared to Glucosamine and Chondroitin.

Importance of Glucosamine and Chondroitin

Glucosamine is an amino monosaccharide synthesized from glucose in almost every human tissue and is most abundant in cartilages and connective tissues. The natural building blocks for growth, repair, and maintenance of cartilage and joint tissues are provided by glucosamine.

Everyday tasks would be very difficult and painful without glucosamine. Glucosamine maintains lubrication and shock absorption by attracting water that serves the gel-like nature of joints. It is also the structural component to other important issues such as tendons, heart valves, ligaments, hair, and nails.

Chondroitin sulfate is a mucopolysaccharide, and they are present in both bones and connective tissues. It speeds up the formation of new joint cartilage, delivers nutrients, and helps inhibit the enzymes that decompose the joint cartilage. Functions such as elasticity and plasticity can be maintained through the use of Chondroitin. It is commonly sold together with glucosamine.

Being the fundamental components of joint tissue, glucosamine and chondroitin help in the production of hyaluronic acid, an important component of the synovial fluid, and thus lubricate the joints and other major components of the connective tissue in the skin.

Importance of MSM

Methyl-sulfonyl-methane (MSM) is an organosulfur compound with the molecular formula (CH₃)₂SO₂. MSM is a biologically useful form of sulfur. Sulfur is the third most abundant mineral in the human body. Sulfur from MSM helps to maintain elasticity and strengthens joint tissues.

They help to support muscles and tendons in the body. A critical building block for cartilage is sulfur. MSM supplement also improves skin health and strengthens hair and nails. They can also improve detoxification, increase energy, and accelerate healing.

Benefits to Bone Health

Our body needs these substances for the proper functioning of bones, joints, cartilages, and tissues. They have a key role to play in their development, maintenance, and repair. As we grow old, their levels drop in our body. This deficiency causes various bone health problems including arthritis and its key variant osteoarthritis.

We have discussed the benefits of their natural forms in the section above. Commercially produced Glucosamine, Chondroitin, and MSM and Glucosamine Chondroitin supplements are given to people suffering from arthritis and osteoarthritis to achieve the same functions, which are as follows: 

1. Supports the Repair of Joint Cartilage. Prevents Age-related onset of Joint problems.
2. Supports all 5 signs of Joint Health Mobility | Comfort | Strength | Flexibility | Lubrication
3. Glucosamine: Builds and strengthens the cartilage and tissue that cushions your joints. 
4. Chondroitin: Lubricates cartilage for better mobility, while also being a shock absorber for your joints
5. MSM: Repairs joint tissue and lower inflammatory that contributes to swelling and stiffness.
6. Glucosamine tablets are used in osteoarthritis care. Please do not use them for treatment for any other form of joint or bone problem. Glucosamine tablets for joints are most effective as an anti-inflammatory agent.
7. Glucosamine is sourced for commercial purposes from exoskeletons of crustaceans like shellfish or sometimes from corn or wheat grains. It is neither a vitamin nor a mineral but an exclusive category of nutritional supplement. Certain studies suggest that one should stop taking glucosamine tablets if they show no benefits in three months.
8. Chondroitin supplements help alleviate osteoarthritis that results from cartilage degeneration and damage. However, it has mixed results.
9. MSM has anti-inflammatory and detoxing properties. It can be found in plants of primitive origin, the bacteria Afipia that inhabit the air in marine areas, and also in certain common food items like milk, tomatoes, tea, corn, and beer.
