It is unfortunate that many people, believing in advertising, throw out money to buy another gel in a pharmacy to eliminate pain in the joints and ligaments. Trying to buy the best pain medication, few resort to full-fledged treatment. But in the XXI century there is no problem with this. There are special drugs that can restore the full functioning of the ligaments and joints, as evidenced by the many thousands of reviews. Glucosamine & Chondroitin & MSM is the full name of the drug, which will be discussed in this article.
Medical point of view
Several factors lead to joint pain, which include physical damage or wear. After all, as you know, any composition consists of cartilage, joint fluid and tissues. For these purposes, the body provides processes that synthesize special substances that ensure the health of joints and ligaments.
- Glucosamine. Corrector metabolism of cartilage and bone tissue. It is part of the joint fluid.
- Chondroitin. A component of cartilage from joint fluid. It is able to accumulate calcium and strengthens the connective tissues of the joint.
- Methylsulfoniomethane (MSM). The organosulfur compound is involved in the metabolism of cartilage. Participates in the renewal of cells and the preservation of muscles and tissues from damage.
Not only physical activity, but also age lead to the fact that the components that regulate the functionality of joints and cartilage begin to be produced by the body in smaller proportions. This is what becomes the first step to purchasing drugs for treatment. So that not people would not look for the components separately, many pharmaceutical companies have created a comprehensive medicine that has only positive reviews - Glucosamine & Chondroitin & MSM.
"Tasting" in sports
In our country, the first to know about a complex preparation was professional athletes - athletes and fighters from all contact sports. The recommendations of the last century on the treatment of injuries with all kinds of ointments have become obsolete, people are actively engaged in the search for life-saving medicines. Ultimate Nutrition Glucosamine & Chondroitin & MSM was the first drug to give a positive result in treatment. The product is presented in the form of tablets or capsules, which, in addition to the main components, contain ingredients involved in the metabolism of cartilage joints, components to enhance the action of the drug, and flavoring sweeteners. The initial purpose of the medication, which is sold in our country as a dietary supplement (BAA), is the elimination of pain in the joints and back. It is also recommended to use to ease the inflammatory processes occurring in the knee joints.
Supplements or medicine?
Across the world it is considered that dietary supplement is a placebo. And there is no benefit to the body in this. It is not clear for what reasons in the post-Soviet space, all sports nutrition including protein, vitamins and amino acids is under the heading "Supplement". This also applies to Ultimate Glucosamine & Chondroitin & MSM, reviews of which for the most part speak of him as a highly effective medicine rather than a placebo. In any case, trust begins with the brand. A world-famous manufacturer of sports nutrition will not produce a non-working product, because it will lose consumers. Advertising in the media is always in doubt, you can not argue with that. But the reviews of people who have tested the drug on themselves have tremendous power and influence. You can verify the veracity of a recall in various ways. One of them is the search for the author in social networks with subsequent communication through correspondence. The second way is to buy, because the price of 1000 rubles is not the amount for which it is worth saving on your own health.
Unprofitable competitor
Around the dietary supplement Ultimate Nutrition Glucosamine & Chondroitin & MSM, which first appeared on our market, the debate about the effectiveness of the treatment does not cease. First of all, the dosage is five times higher than the recommended for use in pharmacy preparations. So, one serving contains 1.5 grams of glucosamine and 1.2 g of chondroitin with MSM. In other cases, the complex consumption of three components at once is called into question. After all, pharmaceutical preparations offer all components individually for sale. In such situations, only one conclusion suggests itself: someone is not happy with the presence on the market of a competitor who offers the same product, but at a much lower price. Take, for example, the pharmacy drug Solgar (Extra Strength Glucosamine & Chondroitin & MSM 60 tab), reviews of which can be found on any medical resource. Grateful patients got rid of joint pain and crunch in the knees. But if you compare the composition of the servings of both products, it turns out that their composition and dosage are identical. The difference is only in price - “Solgar” costs about 3,000 rubles, and Ultimate is three times cheaper!
Questions to the market leader
Even from the happiest customers of Glucosamine & Chondroitin & MSM Ultimate Nutrition, reviews of the positive qualities of the drug end with several questions to the manufacturer regarding the discomfort of taking the miracle cure. Firstly, tablets are huge, and not everyone can swallow them the first time. Naturally, during the reception, a person experiences discomfort. And when you consider that the daily dosage consists of three giant tablets, there is a huge desire to stop treatment. The second question concerns recommendations for use. In addition to the instructions for daily intake of three capsules, nothing is said about the duration of treatment. It’s quite difficult to guess, because on the market the manufacturer presented packages of 30, 60 and 90 capsules. On the official website of the manufacturer, in addition to advertising posts, it will not be possible to find detailed information about the course of administration, therefore, patients have to solve this problem themselves. As a result, people who leave numerous reviews, Glucosamine & Chondroitin & MSM recommend taking for one month, no less.
Treatment of all diseases
It's funny that the product Maxler Glucosamine & Chondroitin & MSM, reviews of which can be found in the media, is positioned not only as a tool designed to eliminate joint pain. The drug, according to the manufacturer, is able to improve the condition of the walls of the bronchi, eliminate the violation of the digestive system, enhance the regeneration of muscle fibers and improve the life of many patients suffering from diseases of the spine. This is not to mention the minor "side" effects of the drug that can improve the condition of nails, skin and hair.
The composition of this drug, unique in its actions, is interesting. Glucosamine - 1.5 g, chondroitin and MSM 1.2 grams in one serving, which consists of three tablets. Virtually no different from the cheaper competitor Ultimate. As one famous athlete said to a popular publication among athletes: “For every buyer, there is always the necessary product in the price category he needs, and no one needs the truth of pricing.”
Good suggestion
The buyer may be interested in the product Glucosamine & Chondroitin & MSM SAN, reviews of which are pretty good. A serious manufacturer in the field of professional sports nutrition can rightfully be considered a competitor, because at a price of 700 rubles there are no analogues. SAN technologists did not invent their own dosage, trusting Ultimate. It affected the price - it is the same as the competitor. What then is the buyer’s interest in? First, sports nutrition from SAN, along with high quality, has a competitive price that attracts athletes. Naturally, attachment to one brand will force the buyer to purchase goods of the same manufacturer. Secondly, unlike Ultimate Glucosamine & Chondroitin & MSM, SAN offers customers the opportunity to purchase a package with 180 capsules. Naturally, the cost of one serving is reduced, which saves a lot of money to the athlete.
Low cost solution
In Russian pharmacies you can find a drug called "Doctor Best" at a price of 2400-2800 rubles per can. Its cost is naturally higher compared to the competitor Ultimate Glucosamine & Chondroitin & MSM. Reviews are mostly negative. Indeed, in addition to the main function - the treatment of joints and cartilage, the manufacturer decided to expand the list of possibilities of the drug, making it "manna from heaven."
- Improving blood circulation and lowering cholesterol.
- The removal of toxins and lactic acid from the cells and the input of minerals and vitamins.
- Treatment of varicose veins and heart defects.
This is only the beginning of a huge list of human diseases with which a miracle cure can cope. Naturally, the price for such a drug is several times higher than that of competitors. There are a lot of questions to this manufacturer, which are unlikely to ever be answered by users who asked them.
Collagen hydrolyzate
But the collagen, which was looked askance a few years ago, has gained immense popularity among athletes. In fact, it is a protein that is part of the connective tissue of a person, or rather, in the cartilage, joints and bones. In a way, collagen hydrolyzate is a building material. And if the product Glucosamine & Chondroitin & MSM Ultimate Nutrition, reviews of which are by no means in doubt, provides an increase in synthesis to create building material that will restore the ligament, cartilage or tendon, then collagen, like building material, gets ready into the body. Assimilating to 95-98%, it almost endlessly enters those organs where the need is experienced. Judging by the chemical composition, collagen hydrolyzate is 90% protein, but in no case can you replace it with protein - these proteins are not comparable. Numerous reviews of patients who were prescribed 10 grams of collagen per day after surgery indicate complete elimination of scars on the human body after one month of use.
Touching on the topic of gelatin
Advertising is the engine of progress, but for the most part, reviews control the purchase of a person. Glucosamine & Chondroitin & MSM is no exception. After all, having entered our market at the beginning of the century, it became popular precisely thanks to the numerous reviews of people who have recovered from ailments. It is in demand not only not only among athletes, but also among many people suffering from pain in the knee and elbow joints.
Along with taking drugs, traditional medicine is widely known, which keeps up with the times. So, many traditional healers recommend the use of an empty stomach 10 grams of gelatin dissolved in water. In many sports publications, such a decision is positioned with a placebo, but there is an opinion that this is done with the supply of sports nutrition manufacturers. After all, a lot of reviews of people who solved their joint problems with gelatin, say the opposite.
Finally
In any case, it is up to the final consumer to decide what to give preference to - gelatin, collagen or preparations based on Glucosamine & Chondroitin & MSM. Reviews when choosing are only a designator, and the decision always remains with the person. In addition to numerous reviews, there is historical information, expert opinions, analyzes and scientific papers. Anyone who wants to find useful information for themselves and draw the right conclusion. In addition, we must not forget that our organisms are not the same. Everyone has their own metabolism and product tolerance.
