Why should you be taking glucosamine?
It appears that with increasing age, your body will find it more difficult to maintain the cartilaginous tissue. Several, new investigations indicate that supplementation of glucosamine may stimulate the formation of the elements that are part of the cartilaginous tissue. Therefore, a supplement of glucosamine may be an advantage for many people.

What is glucosamine?
The drug glucosamine is a natural sugar component (carbohydrate ??) extracted from crab and lobster shells. Glucosamine, and the many drugs deriving from glucosamine in the body, are central building blocks in, among other parts, the articular cartilage.

Glucosamine may also be found in less concentrations in the ordinary food elements we eat, and it appears that the drug is very easily absorbed in the body.

Part of it is transformed into energy, water, and carbon dioxide – but approx. 10% has been found again in the cartilaginous tissue in the joints. It therefore appears that glucosamine has a certain “preference” for the cartilaginous tissue, so it is not totally wrong to indicate glucosamine as “food for the articular cartilage”.

You can actually compare the importance of glucosamine for the articular cartilage with that of calcium for the bones.

What happens when you get older?
With increasing age, many people experience that it becomes increasingly difficult to maintain the articular cartilage. The disintegration is often present in the large joints carrying the body weight – especially that of the hip, knee, or spinal column – but is also often observed in the joints of the fingers.

What can you do to protect your joints?
The strain on the joints of the body are most heavy in people suffering from overweight. For every kilo you loose, the strain is reduced. It is also a good idea to train your muscles and to learn to use your body in the right way, as this will also take care of your joints.
