This is a commonly used supplement, especially by folks with osteoarthritis looking to protect their bones and joints, and I thought it would be worth reviewing the evidence surrounding this particular supplement. Glucosamine is another supplement commonly taken with Chondroitin, often from the same pill, but I will discuss that in another lecture. • Chondroitin is a molecular structure that falls into the category of glycosaminoglycans. Glycosaminoglycans are polysaccharides essentially composed of chains of different types of repeating sugars with proteins and uronic acids attached. (It is more complicated than that, but that simplified version is easy to remember). The purpose of glycosaminoglycans is to act as the bodies natural lubricant and shock absorber for joints. It is an essential component of the structural integrity of the cells in your body, especially in cartilage. Although there are many types, chondroitin sulfate is the most well known and the most common in the body which is why it is the most often supplemented. • Chondroitin is most frequently taken to alleviate the effects of osteoarthritis and, perhaps, other joint diseases. It has anti-inflammatory properties that may possibly help with heart disease and high cholesterol as well. The evidence is mixed on whether this drug is helpful for treating osteoarthritis and I'll try to briefly summarize that evidence for you. • Chondroitin may help with arthritis, knee pain, osteoarthritis, hip pain, shoulder pain, joint disease, osteoporosis, osteopenia and joint disease.
