Stop Joint Pain With Glucosamine Sulfate

​If you have joint pain you may want to consider trying a glucosamine sulfate product like Healthzone Naturals.

Studies have shown glucosamine sulfate will help with issues like osteoarthritis as well. Osteoarthritis primarily affects your knees, hips and finger joints. It can cause pain, swelling and stiffness in your joints. It can also cause you to lose some of your mobility in your joint as well.

​The most common area for osteoarthritis to affect is your knees. It is very painful due to the degeneration of the cartilage tissue. The cartilage tissue acts like a spongy cushion in your knee to prevent your bones from touching each other. The cartilage absorbs the shock in your knee when you are physically active. If the cartilage is degenerating, your bones may touch each other in your knee and this can be extremely painful. If it becomes too bad many people end up needing a complete knee replacement.
But if you take glucosamine sulfate early on, it will
​

• Help reduce the inflammation in your knee thus reducing the pain in your knees
• Stimulate the regrowth of the cartilage tissue
• Help stop the degeneration process.

The reason glucosamine sulfate helps regrow the cartilage is because it is part of what makes up the cartilage in your knee or the cushion in your knee. It is recommended you take 1500 mg of glucosamine sulfate per day. There are many different versions of glucosamine sulfate on the market and they are not all created equally.

You may be one of the thousands of people who have tried glucosamine sulfate in the past and didn’t experience any positive results with it. One major reason for this is glucosamine sulfate is a natural solution. Therefore, you need to take it for several months to realize its full benefit. Many people take it for a couple weeks, don’t see any results and stop taking it. They don’t give it enough time to really start helping them.

Another major reason is that many people opt for the cheaper version of glucosamine. This would be a version that uses glucosamine hydrochloride rather than glucosamine sulfate. The glucosamine hydrochloride version is much cheaper to produce but is not the version of glucosamine that is linked to the successful studies.

Lastly, combined with the cheaper version of glucosamine, some people take brands of glucosamine that do not contain at least 1500 mg. Many companies will offer a lower priced product to make people think they are getting a deal, but when you look more closely, you’ll find each dose only contain 500-1000 mg of glucosamine sulfate. Thus reducing its effectiveness to you.
​
Be sure to select a high quality glucosamine sulfate brand that contains at least 1500 mg of glucosamine sulfate. Make sure it is glucosamine sulfate and not glucosamine hydrochloride. Along with taking glucosamine sulfate, there are other ways you can help reduce your joint pain as well. They include losing some weight, increasing your physical activity, doing range of motion exercises and doing strengthening exercises. Look for more posts about these in the future.
