Glucosamine is an amino sugar derived from the chitin of shellfish. It is utilized by the body to support healthy joint structures. Glucosamine is a naturally occurring substance in the human body. It is an amino sugar that helps rebuild and repair the cartilage between bones and joints. It reduce arthritis symptoms by helping to rebuild cartilage, and helps relieve the symptoms associated with osteoarthritis, a degenerative joint disease.
Glucosamine is vital for building cartilage. Cartilage is a flexible, tough connective tissue found in several areas of the body that functions as padding, a cushion for bones and joints. Joint cartilage requires glucosamine because it is a precursor for glycosaminoglycans. Glycosaminoglycans are a major component of joint cartilage. Sulfur needs to be incorporated into cartilage in order to make and repair it, and glucosamine plays a crucial role in incorporating sulfur into cartilage.
Several scientific studies have shown that glucosamine supplements help patients with osteoarthritis. Benefits include Reduced osteoarthritis related pain, Improved function in patients with knee or hip osteoarthritis, and reduced stiffness and swelling in the joints.
