S1 : In this video, we’ll learn about “#Best #Supplements For #Joint #health ”
S2 : As you’ve seen previously, increased friction between joints leads to the sensation of pain and discomfort. While many resort to #medication, (coming up in the next chapter) as the primary solution to the problem, #supplements are also a popular alternative.

S3 : And while there is a plethora of supplements available, here we’ll only look at some of the best in this category. These supplements have all been backed by #scientific #research and deemed most effective to addressing joint related issues.
S4 : #Glucosamine

Glucosamine is a complex #carbohydrate found in the body primarily in three different forms; #glucosaminesulfate, #glucosamine #hydrochloride and #N-#acetyl-glucosamine.  Among these, glucosamine sulfate is the most common form and is extracted from the outer covering of shellfish.

S5 : To treat joint issues, this supplement may be used alone or combined with chondroitin or shark cartilage for added benefits.

S6 : The reason why this is considered #beneficial  for #jointhealth  is because it plays a vital role in the formation of #cartilage . As you’ve already seen, cartilage thins and deteriorates with age. If anything, it needs help from #supplementation  to keep it #healthy .

S7 : #evidence  suggests that glucosamine helps in slowing down this process. It assists cartilage repair and formation by incorporating sulfur into the structure.  Likewise, swelling also reduces in the presence of glucosamine.

S8 : #people  #suffering from hip or knee arthritis can sufficiently benefit from this supplement.

S9 : The #pain-relieving effect of glucosamine lasts for about 3 months from usage so it may not exactly offer a #long-term #solution. #Results may take a good 6-8 weeks to become noticeable, but will likely be more #effective  than those achieved by using over-the-counter and prescription medication.

S10 : #chondroitin n

Chondroitin naturally occurs in the body in bone and cartilage while supplementary chondroitin is extracted from animal cartilage.

S11 : It’s present in the form of chondroitin sulfate and is often #administered alongside glucosamine. Its benefits are somewhat similar to that of glucosamine. 

This supplement helps the cartilage retain water so that excess rubbing between bones may be prevented. At the same time, it also slows down the #progression  of osteoarthritis.

S12 : When used on its own or in association with other supplements, chondroitin improves the shock-absorbing ability of collagen protein. Also, it inhibits the functioning of enzyme that causes cartilage breakdown.

S13 : When used in conjunction with another supplement, hyaluronic acid, the two develop into a spring-like molecule. This improves the elasticity and strength of the cartilage.

S14 : At the same time, chondroitin sulphate also signals the immune system to prevent cartilage breakdown by increasing collagen synthesis.

S15 : #chondroitin  is especially beneficial for people with hand arthritis. Although it doesn’t enhance grip strength or reduce the need for pain medication, it still reduces morning stiffness in such individuals.

S16 :  It can also serve as an alternative for NSAIDS for people who can’t take them as no side effects of this supplement have been reported.
