Even arthritis has found its own heroes: glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate. Though the absence of quality scientific tests inhibits these two products from wide acceptance in the medical community, glucosamine supplements such as Syn-flex Liquid Glucosamine with a formulation of chondroitin sulfate from shark cartilage, omega fatty acids, and fundamental vitamins and minerals needed for healthy bones, have been known to not only relieve pain from osteoarthritis in humans, and hip dysplasia in cats and dogs, but have been found to restore and help build stronger cartilages needed for healthy joints.

General Information about Osteoarthritis

Strong cartilage is a key component to keeping our joints healthy. Healthy joints are essential for our musculoskeletal system to fully function especially in everyday activities that demand a lot of movement or motion such as walking, running, or climbing that flight of stairs towards the third storey of a building. Unfortunately, the cartilages in our joints naturally degenerate with aging which often results to diminish functionality of the musculoskeletal system particularly in our weight-bearing joints. This condition is generally known as osteoarthritis.

U.S. statistics show that the percentage of OA sufferers have increased significantly since the 90’s, affecting 1 out of every 5 adults. Trailing cardiovascular diseases, it is the second leading cause of immobility among adults over 15 years of age.

The Role of Glucosamine and Chondroitin Sulfate

Glucosamine, scientifically known as glucosamine-6-phosphate, is a natural product (an amino sugar, to be exact) of bodily processes that is produced during the synthesis of glutamine and fructose-6-phosphate. It is a known aid in relieving the effects of osteoarthritis particularly when it comes in the form of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine that facilitates the growth of cartilage elements such as the proteoglycans (an interwoven collection of fiber and proteins that trap in water in the cartilages) and glucoaminoglycans (carbohydrates essential for the building of connective tissues such as cartilages), both necessary in the formation of healthy joints.

Glucosamine is a dietary supplement which has not been thoroughly tested and approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration but is a fast growing popular source of alternative treatment for osteoarthritis and other forms of arthritis in both humans and animals. Manufactured glucosamine occurring in the forms of glucosamine HCL and glucosamine sulfate are extracted from the shells of crabs, and shellfish. General dosage of glucosamine supplements is given at 1500 mg per day either in pill or liquid form although the latter has been found to be more effective.

Synflex Liquid Glucosamine combines another known ingredient of healthy joints known as chondroitin sulfate. Chondroitin sulfate, like glucosamine, naturally occurs in the body. When manufactured, it is usually extracted from shark cartilages (as used in Synflex Liquid Glucosam
