Chondroitin 400

CHONDROITIN 400 is a substance that occurs naturally in the body. It is part of a large protein molecule known as proteoglycan, and its role is to provide elasticity to bone cartilage. The cartilage matrix, or cushion between joints, is made of proteoglycans, which consist, in large part, of chondroitin sulfate. Chondroitin works by holding water and nutrients in the cartilage and giving it structure. This is an important property since cartilage has no blood supply. Additionally, chondroitin inhibits the destructive action of certain enzymes that naturally degenerate the cartilage; interferes with other natural enzymes which tend to impede the transport of nutrients to cartilage; stimulates the production of cartilage matrix molecules and enhances synergistically the action of the glucosamines.
