Description
Glucartrol Forte
Food supplement based on Glucosamine sulfate and Chondroitin sulfate, physiological principles of our body present in the articular cartilage. Glucosamine is naturally present in the human body and is used for the biosynthesis of hyaluronic acid in the synovial fluid and proteoglycans in the articular cartilage. Chondroitin sulfate is one of the main constituent elements of cartilage where, bound to proteins, it forms proteoglycans, gelatinous-viscous substances that give cartilage its characteristic mechanical-elastic properties. In the presence of degenerative situations of an arthritic type, a metabolic defect in the biosynthesis of Glucosamine and Chondroitin sulfate and therefore of the cartilage proteoglycans occurs, with consequent progressive deterioration of the joint function due to degeneration of the cartilage itself. The exogenous supply of Glucosamine sulfate and Chondroitin sulfate has a trophic action on the articular cartilage, compensating the cartilage deficit, stimulating the synthesis of proteoglycans and thus allowing a halt or slowing down of the degenerative joint process that is the basis of arthritic diseases. Both Glucosamine sulfate and Chondroitin sulfate, considered separately, do not possess all the peculiar characteristics of a chondroprotector: this occurs instead if their effects are added together by administering them simultaneously.
