In the world of
supplements, chondroitin sulfate is recognized for its
benefit for cartilage and disc in Minster back pain.
Its reputation keeps growing for 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. Minster Chiropractic Center
shares these new studies to assist our
Minster 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 written that it can
reduce blood glucose and reduce symptoms
related to diabetes. In new studies, it
soothed diabetic osteoporosis and mended
the microstructure of bone due to its anti-oxidative,
anti-inflammatory, and bone metabolism-regulating properties in
diabetic rats. The research studies keep coming! One
of the latest reports that these outcomes were
obtained after 10 weeks of consuming chondroitin
sulfate, and serum inflammatory cytokines (TNF-A, IL-1, IL-6, MCP-1)
reduced. (1) Part of the chiropractic treatment plan at
Minster Chiropractic Center is nutrition. The use of chondroitin
sulfate is providing benefit that Minster chiropractic
patients may appreciate.
CHONDROITIN SULFATE: Diabetic Osteoporosis
In another trial of oral chondroitin sulfate and
whether it has anti-diabetic properties, chondroitin sulfate was
taken for 8 weeks. Preventive properties were
revealed. It helped improve the symptoms of
diabetes by increasing body weight, decreasing
water or food intake, decreasing blood glucose,
raising bone mineral density (BMD), repairing bone morphology
and reducing femoral osteoclasts. These benefits
prompted the researchers to write that chondroitin sulfate
could prevent diabetic osteoporosis through the
reduction of blood glucose along with
antioxidative stress, anti-inflammation, and regulation of serum levels of
OPG/RANKL. In conclusion, they wrote that
chondroitin sulfate can effectively avert bone loss
brought on by diabetes. (2) Minster Chiropractic Center
shares this research as a hope for our
Minster chiropractic patients with osteoporosis.
