Osteoarthritis is a painful degenerative disease of the cartilage and adjacent bone of joints. Most elderly people are afflicted to some extent, while younger people are also at risk, especially if they have suffered joint trauma, have had repetitive use of certain joints due to occupation or lifestyle, or if they are obese. It is estimated that 21 million American adults suffer from the disease, and many of those use medication to relieve the associated pain.
In recent years two naturally occurring supplements—glucosamine and chondroitin—have become increasingly popular as the product of choice for many people. Both of these substances are found naturally in the human body. Glucosamine is an amino sugar that stimulates the formation and repair of cartilage; chondroitin is a carbohydrate that promotes elasticity and prevents other enzymes from degrading joint cartilage.
