It helps to restore damaged joints, slow down degeneration of cartilage tissue and helps to maintain normal joints.[1-14]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eArticular Cartilage – Bumper for the Joints\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCartilage provides a low-friction surface that covers the ends of the bones.[1] It has viscoelastic properties that provide lubrication during motion, shock absorbency, and load support.[1,3-4] Hence, normal and healthy articular cartilage will enable smooth joint movement, prevent damage of bone by friction and weight, and stabilize position of bones and joints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy do we need Glucosamine?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCartilage is mainly composed of water, which its level decreases with age. About 85% of cartilage is water in young people, while it drops to about 70% water in older people.[5] With decrease of water content, the cartilage become harder.[1,3,5] This explains why joint movements usually become less smooth as we age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInjury or degenerative joint diseases, e.g. osteoarthritis, will accelerate the damage or erosion of cartilage tissues and the loss of water from cartilage. Eventually, cartilage will be destroyed and lose its functions.[1-14] Without the protection from cartilage, the ends of the joint bones will have bony overgrowth and often inflame due to the body autoimmune response to the damage.[2,4] Consequently, the joints swell, and the patients would have stiff and painful joints.[1,10-11]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMore Sufficient Amount of Glucosamine Available\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost of the glucosamine supplements in the market stated on their composition labels that contains 750mg Glucosamine Sulphate 2KCl. In fact, there is only 60-70% of active glucosamine as the label claimed, whereas the amount of glucosamine is 100% available as the label claimed without 2KCl. Hence, it can more effectively maintain the health of joints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDeficiency of Glucosamine may cause:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOsteoporosis[12]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdhesive capsulitis[13]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHip osteoarthritis[2,3,6,11]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSport injuries and ligament inflammation[4-6]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLumbar spine dislocation[5]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDegeneration of spinal column, vertebral bone and knee canopy[5]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStiff and pain of joint[1-2,4-14,16,17]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInflammation of fingers and wrists[13]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJoint pain due to over-working[3,4]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVaricose veins[15]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSignificant effects observed for continued intake of 3 to 6 months or above:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRelieve pain, inflammation and swelling[1-2,4-17]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnhance recovery of articular cartilage and slow down cartilage degeneration[1-14]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplement for synovial fluid[2,4]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrengthen the flexibility of joints[1-14]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnhance walking ability[1-14,16]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePromote wound healing[12,14]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePromote blood circulation[5]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eReferences\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMcDevitt CA.
