Chondroitin Sulfate Helps San Jose Osteoporosis
The “osteo” conditions gain a lot of attention at Chiropractic Solutions and in the research labs. “Chondroitin sulfate” gains much attention for the positive effect it has on osteoarthritis, so researchers are focusing attention to its application with the other “osteo”: osteoporosis. Chondroitin sulfate is a non-pharmaceutical intervention demonstrating positive advantage in managing and improving osteoporosis which we are sure our San Jose chiropractic patients with osteoporosis will welcome. Gentle chiropractic care of osteoporosis can be relieving.
OSTEOPOROSIS
Osteoporosis is an age-related condition that concerns millions of people and a skeleton-weakening condition triggered by calcium deficiency many times resulting in painful bone fractures and decreased mobility. Postmenopausal osteoporosis is the most usual kind of osteoporosis. A way to attack osteoporosis is by balancing calcium levels in the body; however, it can be hard to do alone. Luckily, chondroitin sulfate has surfaced as a natural companion in this attempts to help osteoporosis related to calcium deficiency.
CHONDROITIN SULFATE FOR OSTEOPOROSIS – A suitable addition.
Chondroitin sulfate’s ability to adjust lipid metabolism by breaking lipids down into littler particles can allow its absorption by cells more easily. This process permits cells to utilizes the lipids more efficiently, resulting in stronger bones and muscles. Chondroitin sulfate also helps lessen inflammation and pain associated with osteoporosis which may help handle the effects of calcium deficiency-related osteoporosis. In a recent rat study, researchers tested chondroitin sulfate for osteoporosis and compared it to a calcium supplement, too. Chondroitin sulfate and chondroitin sulfate oligosaccharide more effectively restored femur calcium, bone fracture deflection, and serum indices and enhanced cortical bone density, mechanical strength, and mineral content of bone. Their conclusions expressed excitement for the potential in delaying the development of postmenopausal osteoporosis with daily use.

CALCIUM FOR OSTEOPOROSIS – What about a combo?
Osteoporosis sufferers are recommended calcium all the time. Many of us are calcium deficient. Both being non-drug interventions, calcium and chondroitin sulfate may complement each other’s efforts. Chondroitin sulfate, a natural compound found in the human body, has been shown to be an effective solution for dealing with osteoporosis triggered by calcium deficiency. Another study reported that the combined action of chondroitin sulfate and calcium alleviated 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, halted osteoclast differentiation, elevated the absorption of calcium and antioxidant mechanism, and eased osteoporosis.
