Known for its blood sugar effect, diabetes can
also bring about some serious bone and
joint conditions seen at Satterwhite Chiropractic, like diabetic osteoporosis. This is a
Oxford health condition that leads to weakened bone
and joint pain, often accompanied by inflammation and
oxidation. Fortunately, chondroitin sulfate has been proven
to offer natural relief from these symptoms. Keep
reading to learn more about chondroitin sulfate and how it can help alleviate
Oxford diabetic osteoporosis symptoms that our chiropractic
patients may experience.
WHAT IS CHONDROITIN SULFATE?
Chondroitin sulfate is a naturally occurring substance found
in the cartilage of animals also utilized as a dietary supplement
for humans. Research has reported on its ability to
reduce inflammation and elevate bone health which
makes it a beneficial choice for those with diabetes-related
bone issues. Adding chondroitin sulfate to your
overall health treatment plan may be of benefit to you.
Satterwhite Chiropractic can have a more personalized discussion about your specific
case.
HOW DOES CHONDROITIN SULFATE HELP WITH DIABETIC
OSTEOPOROSIS?
To explore how chondroitin sulfate
may help, let’s look at the diabetes-osteoporosis connection. Diabetes-related
osteoporosis is brought on by poor blood sugar control
mixed with oxidative stress and inflammation. Chondroitin
sulfate helps combat all three of these issues by
decreasing oxidative stress, stalling
inflammatory mediators, and regulating bone
metabolism. Additionally, chondroitin sulfate has been
shown to enhanced collagen production
and calcium absorption in the body—both of which are
essential for strong bones. Additionally,
research has found that taking chondroitin sulfate
on a regular basis can help safeguard
against future bone loss in people
with diabetes-related osteoporosis. This means that even if you’re already
feeling the consequences of diabetic
osteoporosis, taking chondroitin sulfate can still have beneficial effects on your overall bone
health over time. (1) Satterwhite Chiropractic encourages our
Oxford spine pain patients who also have
diabetes to consider options like this with research support of benefit.
