Thousands Of Runners Use Glucosamine And Chondroitin To Combat Knee Pain
(firmenpresse) - Orlando, FL– March 14, 2016 – Sports or fitness activities such as running can make enthusiasts or athletes more susceptible to pain and injuries. There are precautions and measures athletes take to save themselves from injuries as well as improve their performance.
Thousands of runners use glucosamine and chondroitin to combat knee pain. These two over-the-counter supplements are not just popular among athletes, but also individuals who are suffering from arthritic conditions such as arthritis.
The estimated worldwide sales of pills that contain both of the therapeutic ingredients could potentially reach $2 billion. Many people believe these natural alternatives are a safe alternative to pain relief drugs, which are associated with side effects.
According to a recent internet poll conducted by the runnersworld.com, 94.5 percent of respondents admitted that they had tried using at least one of the supplements. What makes the poll even more interesting is that 79.8 percent reported improvements in their symptoms after taking either or both glucosamine and chondroitin.
“Fortunately, many of the best supplements available nowadays contain both glucosamine and chondroitin,” said VitaBreeze Supplements spokesperson, Michelle O’Sullivan.
Experts reveal that when the articular joint cartilage gets damaged or wears away, it causes osteoarthritis pain and inflammation. Glucosamine and chondroitin are thought to be helpful in the repair, healing and regeneration of the cartilage.
Stephen Messier, Ph.D., Wake Forest osteoarthritis experts, six-day-a-week runner, and a nine-time marathoner, states that trauma from an injury can potentially lead to the development of osteoarthritis. However, it is not only trauma that makes people susceptible to the condition, but also overuse of the joint.
A new meta-analysis of studies was conducted that involved both of the ingredients in the treatment of osteoarthritis. The study was published in The Archives of Internal Medicine. It was found that glucosamine has demonstrated highly significant efficacy on every outcome, including joint space narrowing. It was also found that both compounds are safe to use.
Runners are almost always susceptible to wear and tear in the joint cartilage. Their intense physical activities also make them prone to injuries and the risk of developing osteoarthritis. Both glucosamine and chondroitin could be used as a preventive measure against wear and tear, osteoarthritis, and injuries.
There are many athletes who prefer to use glucosamine supplements instead of pain relief medications. These natural alternatives do not cause the side effects associated with the use of the pharmaceutical drugs. What makes them more beneficial is that they have the potential ability to naturally repair cartilage damage.
There are many glucosamine supplements available nowadays, and the best ones do not just contain chondroitin, but also other therapeutic ingredients such as turmeric and MSM (www.amazon.com/Glucosamine-Sulfate-Chondroitin-Supplement-Turmeric/dp/B00DUMO9X4)
