In the world of
supplements, chondroitin sulfate is well-known for its
benefit for cartilage and disc in Pensacola back pain.
Its reputation keeps growing for influence
on specific conditions from cancer to knee osteoarthritis
to cells and nerves. Recent research positively
affects diabetes and its
associated osteoporosis and inflammation. Pensacola Spinal Rehab Center
shares these new studies to help our
Pensacola 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’s reported that it can
decrease blood glucose and relieve symptoms
associated with diabetes. In new studies, it
alleviated diabetic osteoporosis and mended
the microstructure of bone due to its anti-oxidative,
anti-inflammatory, and bone metabolism-regulating features in
diabetic rats. The research studies keep coming! One
of the most recent reports that these outcomes were
attained after 10 weeks of consuming chondroitin
sulfate, and serum inflammatory cytokines (TNF-A, IL-1, IL-6, MCP-1)
lowered. (1) Part of the chiropractic treatment plan at
Pensacola Spinal Rehab Center is nutrition. Incorporating chondroitin
sulfate is showing benefit that Pensacola chiropractic
patients may enjoy.
CHONDROITIN SULFATE: Diabetic Osteoporosis
In another study of oral chondroitin sulfate and
whether it has anti-diabetic properties, chondroitin sulfate was
taken for 2 months. Preventive properties were
revealed. It improved the symptoms of
diabetes by increasing body weight, reducing
water or food intake, decreasing blood glucose,
increasing bone mineral density (BMD), repairing bone morphology
and reducing femoral osteoclasts. These benefits
initiated the researchers to write that chondroitin sulfate
could prevent diabetic osteoporosis through reducing blood glucose along with
antioxidative stress, anti-inflammation, and regulation of serum levels of
OPG/RANKL. In summary, they wrote that
chondroitin sulfate can capably prevent bone loss
triggered by diabetes. (2) Pensacola Spinal Rehab Center
presents this research as a hopeful option for our
Pensacola chiropractic patients with osteoporosis.
