Carrolltown Chiropractic Tip: Chondroitin Sulfate for Diabetes Management
In the nutritional supplement world, chondroitin sulfate is recognized for its benefit for cartilage and disc in Carrolltown back pain. Its reputation grows in influence on specific spinal issues from cancer to knee osteoarthritis to cells and nerves. New research positively affects diabetes and its associated osteoporosis and inflammation. Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation shares these new studies to help our Carrolltown 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 is reported that it can reduce blood glucose and reduce symptoms associated with diabetes. In new studies, it alleviated diabetic osteoporosis and mended the microstructure of bone due to its anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, and bone metabolism-regulating features in diabetic rats. The research studies keep coming! A recent report states that these outcomes were obtained after 10 weeks of consuming chondroitin sulfate, and serum inflammatory cytokines (TNF-A, IL-1, IL-6, MCP-1) lowered.

Incorporating chondroitin sulfate is providing benefit that Carrolltown chiropractic patients may enjoy.
CHONDROITIN SULFATE: Diabetic Osteoporosis
In another study of oral chondroitin sulfate and whether it has anti-diabetic features, chondroitin sulfate was taken for 8 weeks. Preventive properties were revealed. It improved the symptoms of diabetes by raising body weight, reducing water or food intake, reducing blood glucose, increasing bone mineral density (BMD), repairing bone morphology and decreasing femoral osteoclasts. These benefits initiated the researchers to write that chondroitin sulfate could prevent diabetic osteoporosis through the decrease 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.
