Millville Chiropractic Tip: Chondroitin Sulfate for Diabetes Management

In the nutritional supplement world, chondroitin sulfate is recognized for its care of cartilage and disc in Millville back pain. Its reputation continues to evolve in influence on specific spinal issues from cancer to knee osteoarthritis to cells and nerves. Recent research positively affects diabetes and its related osteoporosis and inflammation. Wilson Family Chiropractic shares these new studies to assist our Millville 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’s written that it can reduce blood glucose and reduce symptoms related to diabetes. In new studies, it alleviated diabetic osteoporosis and repaired 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 taking chondroitin sulfate, and serum inflammatory cytokines (TNF-A, IL-1, IL-6, MCP-1) reduced.

CHONDROITIN SULFATE: Diabetic Osteoporosis

In another study of oral chondroitin sulfate and whether it has anti-diabetic properties, chondroitin sulfate was taken for 8 weeks. Preventive properties were revealed. It helped improve the symptoms of diabetes by raising body weight, reducing water or food intake, decreasing blood glucose, increasing bone mineral density (BMD), repairing bone morphology and reducing femoral osteoclasts. These benefits prompted the researchers to write that chondroitin sulfate could avert 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 stated that chondroitin sulfate can effectively prevent bone loss triggered by diabetes.
