In the nutritional supplement world, chondroitin sulfate is recognized for its
care of cartilage and disc in Groton back pain.
Its reputation grows in influence
on specific spinal issues from cancer to knee osteoarthritis
to cells and nerves. New research positively
affects diabetes and its
related osteoporosis and inflammation. Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office
shares these new studies to help our
Groton chiropractic back pain as well as diabetic patients.
CHONDROITIN SULFATE: Diabetes and Inflammation
Chondroitin sulfate is a powerhouse potential
for diabetes in addition to disc nutrition. It is reported that it can
decrease blood glucose and relieve symptoms
related to diabetes. In new studies, it
soothed diabetic osteoporosis and mended
the microstructure of bone via its anti-oxidative,
anti-inflammatory, and bone metabolism-regulating properties in
diabetic rats. The research studies keep coming! A recent report states that these outcomes were
attained after 10 weeks of taking chondroitin
sulfate, and serum inflammatory cytokines (TNF-A, IL-1, IL-6, MCP-1)
decreased. (1) Part of the chiropractic treatment plan at
Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office is nutrition. The use of chondroitin
sulfate is providing benefit that Groton chiropractic
patients may appreciate.
CHONDROITIN SULFATE: Diabetic Osteoporosis
In another trial of oral chondroitin sulfate and
whether it has anti-diabetic features, chondroitin sulfate was
taken for 2 months. Preventive properties were
revealed. It helped improve the symptoms of
diabetes by increasing body weight, decreasing
water or food intake, lowering blood glucose,
raising 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 decreasing blood glucose along with
antioxidative stress, anti-inflammation, and regulation of serum levels of
OPG/RANKL. In summary, they stated that
chondroitin sulfate can effectively avert bone loss
brought on by diabetes. (2) Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office
presents this research as a hopeful option for our
Groton chiropractic patients with osteoporosis.
