MSM/GLUCOSAMINE/CHONDROITIN JOINT SUPPORT COMBO?
KALA Health's MSM
/ Glucosamine / Chondroitin Joint Support Combo is
a combination of MSM, glucosamine, chondroitin and
several other ingredients, each of which have been
proven to support healthy joints. The amounts and
quality of each of the ingredients of MSM /
Glucosamine / Chondroitin Joint Support Combo were
carefully selected to maximize their supportive
effect on the joints.
Each of these ingredients works at different levels
for optimal joint support. Combined in a
coated tablet and aided by several support
ingredients, MSM, glucosamine and chondroitin have a
synergetic effect and enhance each other’s
activities.
TOP QUALITY
PHARMACEUTICAL GRADE INGREDIENTS
Kala
Health's MSM
/ Glucosamine / Chondroitin Joint Support Combo
contains top quality ingredients of pharmaceutical grade:
OptiMSM®,
the purest
MSM available produced by Bergstrom Nutrition in the
USA, guaranteed >99,9% pure. MSM is a donor of
methyl groups and biological active sulfur, and
supports healthy joints;
Regenasure® Glucoamine
HCl, the only vegetarian glucosamine in the world,
guaranteed >98% pure and produced in the USA by
fermenting corn through a patented process. The HCl-form
also is the most concentrated form of glucosamine,
providing 80% elementary glucosamine (against 60%
when glucosamine sulphate.2KCl is used).
ChondroPure® Chondroitin
Sulphate of Pharmaceutical 'Low Molecular' Grade,
produced in the USA from bovine trachea and
guaranteed >90% pure when tested according to the
sophisticated Enzymatic HPLC Method (Please click
here for more information on Enzymatic HPLC).

KALA
Health's MSM, glucosamine and chondroitin Joint
Support Combo offers the
following advantages:
• Taken in
the recommended dosage, the tablets contain the
optimal amount of top quality MSM, glucosamine and
chondroitin according to the most recent scientific
knowledge;
• In addition
to MSM, glucosamine and chondroitin, each tablet
also contains Vitamin C
(as Ester C®)
Vitamin
C is essential for the production of collagen,
elastin and other molecules that make up
connective tissue and cartilage;
Vitamin C slows
down the breakdown of GAGs, which
form the matrix of cartilage (see column on
right);
Vitamin C
is the most important water soluble anti-oxidant
in the body. It protects the body against the
ravages caused by free radicals. For more
information about Ester C, please CLICK HERE
• Other
important ingredients included are Manganese
and Molybdenum. Both are sparse elements in
the human body, nevertheless these minerals play an
essential role in many metabolic processes.
Manganese is known to help with the production of
collagen and proteoglycans from the glucosamine and
the chondroitin sulfate, while molybdenum plays an
important role in the assimilation of sulfur. |
MSM/GLUCOSAMINE/CHONDROITIN
JOINT SUPPORT COMBO
is available in bottles containing
120 coated tablets.

MSM |
|
MSM donates methyl
groups and sulfur to the body. Methyl groups form the
building blocks of all organic molecules in the body.
The body continuously breaks down and builds up body
tissue and body cells. Millions of times per second
methyl groups are used in the body for the
construction of molecules. This process is called 'methylation'.
Methylation is
needed for the formation of new DNA and new cells.
Methylation is also a key step in the detoxification
processes in the liver.
MSM also
donates sulfur, necessary for healthy cartilage and
liver detoxification processes. With increasing age
the supply of sulfur in the body may decreases: One
equine study has shown, arthritic cartilage
may contain only one-third of the sulfur concentration
of healthy cartilage.
MSM is often
considered the safest donor of methyl groups and
sulfur, as it leaves no toxic rest molecule
behind.

|
GLUCOSAMINE |
|
Glucosamine,
an amino sugar, promotes the formation and repair of
cartilage.
Glucosamine
is an important building block of many GAGs (glycosaminoglycans), which are molecules that form the
matrix of cartilage.
It is derived from chitin, a substance which gives strength to the
exoskeleton of crabs, lobsters, insects and spiders.
KALA
Health's formula uses the
glucosamine sulfate
form
as most research has been done with this type of
glucosamine. It is a very safe
and easily assimilated glucosamine molecule. Three tablets twice daily supplies
1,500-mg glucosamine sulfate, the daily dosage that
has been proven in studies to be effective.
|
|
CHONDROITIN |
|
The cartilage
in the joints act as a spongy ‘shock absorber’.
For this it needs special substances to attract fluid.
Chondroitin, another natural substance made in the
body, attracts fluid into the cartilage like a liquid
magnet. Without this fluid, cartilage would become
malnourished, thinner and more fragile. In this way
Chondroitin supports healthy cartilage and also
stimulates the synthesis of new cartilage, important
for healthy joints.
Chondroitin works best when the molecules are small
and easily taken up by the body. Cheaper forms of
chondroitin are a waste of money as they are passed
through the body without benefit. KALA Health's
chondroitin is guaranteed to contain in excess of 90%
active ingredient, and has a small molecular size
(<25,000 Daltons) that allows it to be easily
assimilated.
Three tablets twice
daily provide 1,200 mg of
chondroitin that is the recommended amount for optimal
results. This dosage is also considered safe.

MANGANESE |
|
Manganese is an
essential mineral found in large quantities in both
plant and animal matter. Only trace amounts of this
element can be found in human tissue, however.
Manganese supports many enzyme controlled reactions,
and plays an essential role in the formation of GAGs
(see above). It aids in the formation of connective
tissue and bones.
A few studies of people suggest that the combination
of manganese supplementation taken along with
glucosamine and chondroitin can contribute to healthy
joints. |
