In the nutritional supplement world, chondroitin sulfate is well-known for its
care of cartilage and disc in Fernandina Beach back pain.
Its reputation grows in influence
on specific conditions from cancer to knee osteoarthritis
to cells and nerves. Recent research positively
affects diabetes and its
related osteoporosis and inflammation. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic
shares these new studies to help our
Fernandina Beach chiropractic back pain as well as diabetic patients.
CHONDROITIN SULFATE: Diabetes and Inflammation
Chondroitin sulfate is powerful
for diabetes in addition to disc nutrition. It is reported that it can
decrease blood glucose and reduce symptoms
related to diabetes. In new studies, it
soothed diabetic osteoporosis and mended
the microstructure of bone due to its anti-oxidative,
anti-inflammatory, and bone metabolism-regulating features in
diabetic rats. The research studies keep coming! A recent report states that these outcomes were
attained after 10 weeks of consuming chondroitin
sulfate, and serum inflammatory cytokines (TNF-A, IL-1, IL-6, MCP-1)
decreased. (1) Part of the chiropractic treatment plan at
Amelia Chiropractic Clinic is nutrition. Incorporating chondroitin
sulfate is showing benefit that Fernandina Beach chiropractic
patients may appreciate.
CHONDROITIN SULFATE: Diabetic Osteoporosis
In another study of oral chondroitin sulfate and
whether it has anti-diabetic properties, chondroitin sulfate was
taken for 8 weeks. Preventive properties were
revealed. It helped improve the symptoms of
diabetes by raising body weight, decreasing
water or food intake, decreasing blood glucose,
increasing bone mineral density (BMD), repairing bone morphology
and decreasing femoral osteoclasts. These benefits
prompted the researchers to write that chondroitin sulfate
could prevent diabetic osteoporosis through the decrease of blood glucose along with
antioxidative stress, anti-inflammation, and regulation of serum levels of
OPG/RANKL. In conclusion, they stated that
chondroitin sulfate can effectively prevent bone loss
triggered by diabetes. (2) Amelia Chiropractic Clinic
presents this research as a hopeful option for our
Fernandina Beach chiropractic patients with osteoporosis.
