Prevent osteoarthritis with fish

Taking glucosamine(glucose based supplement )with oil from fish(Omega 3)can tremendously reduce joint pain- osteoarthritis a type of inflammation in bone joints caused by breakdown and eventually loss of cartilage of one or more joints.


researchers have discovered that people taking Glucomega reported a greater pain reduction than when they took glucosamine sulphate alone which is able to reduce the pain by only 20 %.but when omega 3 is combined glucosamine its reduced the pain by 80% or more..this shows that a combination of polyunsaturated omega 3 and glucosamine sulphate is more effective in leading to a greater reduction if joint pain associated with osteoarthritis than supplementing with glucosamine sulphate alone.
glucosamine occurs naturally in the body but as people age it becomes harder for them to produce more reserves.glucosamine has been seen to play a major role in joint health as it's an integral constituent of the bone cartilage and ligament and it play a role in smooth working and rebuilding of connective tissues.



The Glucomega have been reported to slow down the or even prevent the need for total jint replacement. osteoarthritis is primarily related to aging,the water content of cartilage increases and the protein makeup degenerate and eaventually he cartilage begin to degenerate by flaking or forming tiny crevasses in advanced cases there is total loss of cartilage cushion between the bones of the joints.repeated use of worn out joints can irritate and inflammation of the cartilage causing joint pain and swelling.
loss of cartilage cushion causes friction between the bones leading to pain and limitation of joint mobility.inflammation also stimulate new bone out growth(osteophytes) to form around the joints. Osteoarthritis occasionally develop in multiple members of the same family implying a hereditary basis for this condition. There is no cure but the symptoms can be managed reasonably. Mild symptoms are manage through exercise and wearing suitable footwear
