Chondroitin Sulfate Helps Largo Osteoporosis
The “osteo” conditions get a lot of attention at Hollstrom & Associates Inc and in the research labs. “Chondroitin sulfate” gets much attention for the benefit it has on osteoarthritis, so researchers are focusing attention to its use with the other “osteo”: osteoporosis. Chondroitin sulfate is a non-prescription intervention that is showing benefit for managing and making better osteoporosis which we are sure our Largo chiropractic patients with osteoporosis will welcome. Gentle chiropractic care of osteoporosis can be relieving.
OSTEOPOROSIS
Osteoporosis is an age-related condition that affects millions of people and a skeleton-deteriorating condition triggered by calcium deficiency many times resulting in painful bone fractures and reduced mobility. Postmenopausal osteoporosis is the most usual kind of osteoporosis. One way to fight osteoporosis is by balancing calcium levels in the body; however, it can be difficult to do alone. Luckily, chondroitin sulfate has appeared as a natural companion in this attempts to help osteoporosis caused by calcium deficiency.
CHONDROITIN SULFATE FOR OSTEOPOROSIS – A suitable addition.
Chondroitin sulfate’s ability to adjust lipid metabolism by breaking lipids down into smaller particles can allow its absorption by cells more easily. This process allows cells to use the lipids better, resulting in stronger bones and muscles. Chondroitin sulfate also helps lessen inflammation and pain related to osteoporosis which may help control the effects of calcium deficiency-related osteoporosis. In a recent rat study, researchers examined chondroitin sulfate for osteoporosis and compared it to a calcium supplement, too. Chondroitin sulfate and chondroitin sulfate oligosaccharide more effectively repaired femur calcium, bone fracture deflection, and serum indices and enhanced cortical bone density, mechanical strength, and mineral content of bone. Their conclusions showed excitement for the potential of delaying the development of postmenopausal osteoporosis with daily use. (1) This is beneficial news for Largo osteoporosis patients to insert into their calcium supplementation routine.
CALCIUM FOR OSTEOPOROSIS – What about a combo?
Calcium is advised for osteoporosis all the time. Many of us lack sufficient calcium levels. Both being non-drug interventions, calcium and chondroitin sulfate may complement each other’s efforts. Chondroitin sulfate, a natural compound existing in the human body, has been shown to be an effective solution for managing osteoporosis caused by calcium deficiency. Another study reported that the combined action of chondroitin sulfate and calcium eased osteoporosis via gut microbiota and metabolomics in low calcium rats. Chondroitin sulfate slowed down the inflammatory response, decreased short chain fatty acid synthesis in intestinal flora, stopped osteoclast differentiation, elevated the absorption of calcium and antioxidant mechanism, and improved osteoporosis.
