Chondroitin Sulfate Helps New York City Osteoporosis

August 08, 2023

The “osteo” conditions gain a lot of attention at Rosenberg Wellness Center and in the research labs. “Chondroitin sulfate” receives much attention for the positive effect it has on osteoarthritis, so researchers are directing attention to its use with the other “osteo”: osteoporosis. Chondroitin sulfate is a non-prescription intervention that is showing positive advantage for managing and improving osteoporosis which we are sure our New York City 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-deteriorating condition produced by calcium deficiency often resulting in painful bone fractures and decreased mobility. Postmenopausal osteoporosis is the most usual form of osteoporosis. One way to fight osteoporosis is by balancing calcium levels in the body; however, it can be difficult to do alone. Fortunately, chondroitin sulfate has appeared as a natural companion in this attempts to help osteoporosis caused by calcium deficiency.

CHONDROITIN SULFATE FOR OSTEOPOROSIS – A good addition.

Chondroitin sulfate’s ability to adjust lipid metabolism by reducing lipids into smaller particles can allow its absorption by cells more easily. This process permits cells to use the lipids better, leading to stronger bones and muscles. Chondroitin sulfate also helps decrease inflammation and pain related to osteoporosis which may help manage the effects of calcium deficiency-related osteoporosis. In a newer 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 progression of postmenopausal osteoporosis with daily consumption. (1) This is beneficial news for New York City osteoporosis patients to insert into their calcium supplementation schedule.

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 effects. Chondroitin sulfate, a natural compound found in the human body, has been shown to be an effective solution for handling osteoporosis triggered by calcium deficiency. Another study stated that the combined action of chondroitin sulfate and calcium was good for osteoporosis via gut microbiota and metabolomics in low calcium rats. Chondroitin sulfate slowed down the inflammatory response, lowered short chain fatty acid synthesis in intestinal flora, halted osteoclast differentiation, promoted the absorption of calcium and antioxidant mechanism, and eased osteoporosis.
