MSM Joint Formula
Natural Factors' superior remedy for painful joints and connective tissue contains a combination of MSM (Methyl-sulfonyl-methane), Glucosamine Sulfate and Chondroitin Sulfate. This combination works to maintain the structural integrity of joints and connective tissue while it jumpstarts the healing process. Glucosame Sulfate and Chondroitin protect the cartilage and connective tissue and optimize joint function.
Glucosamine Sulfate -Glucosamine sulfate (GLS) stimulates the manufacture of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), key components of cartilage, making it very useful for degenerative joint disease or osteoarthritis. Clinical studies show it may stimulate joint repair. Natural Factors GLS is fully reacted and is made up of a combination of glucose, glutamine and sulfur. It is generally believed that the sulfur component makes it more useful for joint problems than the glucosamine HCL forms currently on the market. Sodium Free is recommended for those avoiding salt; anyone with hypertension for example.
Chondroitin-Chondroitin sulfate is a component of cartilage, the connective tissue disk that acts as a cushion in your joints. Cartilage also forms other parts of the body like the outer ear, tip of the nose and lining of the vessels. Cartilage is a mix of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and chondroitin is the most abundant type of GAG. Chondroitin sulfate absorbs water, making the cartilage thick and spongy, to distribute forces evenly over the joint. Loss of chondroitin makes the disk dry and brittle, lessening its ability to cushion. Chondroitin also inhibits enzymes that break down cartilage and is a part of other joint tissues. Supplemental chondroitin has been shown to improve joint mobility and reduce the pain and swelling associated with arthritis. Natural health practitioners for osteoarthritis and other joint injuries recommend chondroitin sulfate
MSM -MSM is a sulphur-containing compound that is used as an analgesic and anti-inflammatory. It is a derivative of DMSO and is safer to use because it does not accumulate as rapidly in the body and does not have an offensive odour. As a source of organic sulphur, MSM helps to build protein, connective tissue, hormones and enzymes.Its pain relieving activity is believed to be fourfold. Firstly it can reduce the transmission of pain signals along nerve fibers.
Secondly it increases blood flow to an area. Thirdly it reduces muscle spasms. And lastly, MSM stops the release of inflammatory compounds. MSM can also help the body to detoxify by supporting the functioning of the liver. MSM can be helpful for those individuals who have inflammatory conditions like arthritis, lupus and interstitial cystitis, suffer from seasonal allergies, or have pain due to other health conditions
Drug Treatments Can Actually Worsen Arthritis
Conventional treatment with non-steroidal anti-inflammatories has been shown to worsen arthritis. Side effects of some drugs are gastrointestinal bleeding, stomach ulcers, heart attacks and liver problems. Some of these medications, especially the NSAID group can actually accelerate the degradation of joint tissue. Corticosteroids like cortisone and prednisone sometimes recommended for arthritis, while effective at relieving discomfort in the short term, can cause a loss of bone mass.
