What is osteoarthritis?
Osteoarthritis、 also known as degenerative joint disease、 is caused by the breakdown of cartilage、 which is the connective tissue that cushions the ends of bones in a joint.
What happens inside our joint?
Cartilage breaks down and wears away ® Rubbing of bones due to degradation of cartilage ® Rubbing causes pain、 swelling and loss of motion of the joint ® Over time、 the joint may lose its normal shape ® ·Bone spurs may form OSTEOPHYTES ·Bits of bone or cartilage break off & float inside the joint space causing MORE PAIN ·Cysts、 bony lumps and excess fluid may develop which eventually cause SWELLING

Glucosamine Sulphate


Chondroitin Sulphate

· Provides basic raw material needed to maintain a healthy cartilage.

· Stimulates production of cartilage components.

· Relieves joint pain associated with OA especially in the knee.

· Stabilizes the synovial fluid by increasing the fluids around the joints.

· Prevents further degeneration of cartilage especially in people with OA.

· Increase joint space.

· Improves mobility of arthritic joints.


· Exhibits anti-inflammatory effect thus reducing the need of NSAIDs (Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs).

· Decreases the destruction of cartilage by inhibiting proteolytic enzymes and other substances that contribute to the damage of cartilage matrix.

· Stimulate the production of proteoglycans and hyaluronic acid to maintain a healthy cartilage.
Improves symptoms of OA & potentially reserves or suppresses the degenerative process associated with OA.
