Nutraceuticals Gain Favor for Treatment
of Osteoarthritis
Michele G. Sullivan
Mid-Atlantic Bureau
ORLANDO, FLA. — Dismissed a decade ago as “snake
oil,” glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate have gained
respect as treatments for osteoarthritis,
Dr. David Hungerford, said at a symposium on hip and
knee arthroplasty sponsored by the Current Concepts Institute.
These nutritional supplements are safe and
chondroprotective, said Dr. Hungerford, an orthopedic surgeon
at Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore.
A 1999 study that followed 199 patients
being treated for osteoarthritis of the hand found that, over
3 years, 8% of those who took chondroitin sulfate developed
new joint lesions as compared to 29% of the control group.
A 2-year study published in 2001 examined
the radiographic outcomes of 210 patients with knee osteoarthritis.
Patients taking chondroitin sulfate showed
no joint changes, while those on placebo showed significant
joint space narrowing.
Another 2-year, placebo-controlled study
published in 2001 found that patients who had knee osteoarthritis
and took glucosamine experienced increased function, less
pain, and less joint-space narrowing than patients who did
not take the supplement.
Dr. Hungerford offered one caveat to these
findings: The chondroitin and glucosamine products used in
clinical studies contain optimum amounts of the active ingredients.
Among nutritional supplements available to
consumers, it can be difficult to find a brand that contains
the optimum amount of active ingredients.
A recent study of
32 brands of glucosamine showed that 17 had less than 50%
of the level of active ingredients claimed on the label and
that some of those brands had no active ingredient at all.
“It's important to guide patients
to products whose ingredients have been thoroughly tested,”
he said.
Here are some Joint
Ease Patient Testimonials:
“I found that Joint Ease has given me much relief from
chronic pain in my fingers, knees, and toes. At 91 years of
age, I have realized that Joint Ease is the product that has
helped me to be able to do things again with no pain, especially
doing crossword puzzles.” Esther
B.
"I have been taking Joint Ease since
October 2003. After only 3 or 4 weeks the pain in my knees
went away. I could walk much better. Before I only walked
a few hundred feet. Now I can walk all over the malls."
