Glucosamine for Healthy Bones

I have been taking Glucosamine and fish oil for a number of years now.
As I was getting close to 50 the old bones through wear and tear, where
starting to ache and I found the benefits of these two in a supplement
form.

Read what Steven Godlewski has to say about adding Glucosamine to your
diet and most importantly in what form it should be taken.

Glucosamine for Healthy Bones

Man cannot live on bread alone, and bones can't be healthy
with calcium alone. They also need Glucosamine. The human
body naturally produces Glucosamine, but as we grow older,
our bodies stop producing enough Glucosamine, causing our
bones and joints to wear out at a much faster rate. This
affects your hips, knees, and hands, causing bone spurs,
pain, deformity, and reduced movement and flexibility.

Glucosamine relieves osteo-related pain, rehabilitates
cartilage, repairs joints, and produces synovial fluids. A
great deal of research has gone into the benefits of
Glucosamine, and when coupled with calcium, it goes a very
long way towards keeping bones and teeth healthy, as well
as helping to repair bones that have become unhealthy.
Glucosamine is also vital in the formation and health of
ligaments, tendons, nails, skin, eyes, bones, and heart
valves.

Not just any Glucosamine will do, however. You need a high
quality Glucosamine, and you need it in liquid form, as
opposed to pill or capsule form. Scientists have found that
only 10% to 20% of vitamins and minerals in the form of
pills and capsules are absorbed by the body, while those
same vitamins and liquids in liquid form are absorbed by up
to 98%.

This is a huge difference, and your overall health depends
a great deal on this difference. It is a shame that so many
people think that they are actually getting the vitamins
and minerals that they need when they swallow their multi
vitamin pill each morning. Furthermore, when seeking
relief, it can take up to ten weeks to see any results when
taking pills, as opposed to one or two weeks to receive
relief when using a liquid formula.

Along with calcium and Glucosamine, the body also requires
chondroitin sulfate. This is a glucosaminoglycan that is
made up of repeating units of Glucosamine. It is used by
cartilage and other joint structures, where it stimulates
the production of even more chondroitin sulfate. The body
also needs vitamin D3, which helps the body absorb and use
calcium.

Look for a supplement which supplies the body with all that
it needs for strong bones and teeth. It should contain
magnesium, chondroitin, Glucosamine, vitamin D, calcium.
and colloidal minerals for better absorption. Zinc,
magnesium, copper, and manganese are also included, as
these four minerals are vital for proper metabolism in the
bone.

All of these ingredients combined serve to aid the entire
structural system of the human body. Look for other trace
minerals to improve your overall health, and make sure all
of the ingredients are of the highest possible quality.

So, while taking a good multi vitamin is important, and
taking a calcium supplement is also important, it is also
vital that you make sure your calcium supplement includes
Glucosamine if you really want to protect your bone
structure. Don't rely on calcium alone to still have you
walking when you are in your eighties and nineties!
