Orlando, FL— May 31, 2016 — Arthritis is one of the painful and debilitating conditions that affect millions of people around the world. There are preventive measures and medications believed to be helpful for the condition. There are also certain indications that allow people to have an idea that they may be susceptible to the condition.
Appearance of fingernails can predict arthritis risk. According to experts, the fingernails are one of the things that people should watch out for to have an idea of what is going on with their joints.
One of the possible signs of arthritis is when the fingernails start to become brittle or weak. When this happens, sufferers are advised to take action. The fingernails are made from protein, and there are certain types of proteins that play a role in the development of cartilage in the joints.
The good news is that rebuilding the cartilage and strengthening the fingernails are not difficult at all. There are certain supplements such as glucosamine that is believed to be helpful for repairing cartilage damage.
Glucosamine is a naturally-occurring substance in the body. It is a natural ingredient that is thought to not only repair damaged cartilage but also regain overall joint health. As a matter of fact, glucosamine is a popularly used natural alternative for arthritic conditions such as osteoarthritis.
Osteoarthritis is believed to be caused by the wear and tear in the joint cartilage. Years of doing common activities such as walking and running can eventually, potentially lead to the development of osteoarthritis. Cartilage damage may also be caused by injuries.
Individuals and the elderly population are commonly affected by osteoarthritis. While there are pain medications available, these pharmaceutical drugs are associated with side effects. This has encouraged many arthritis sufferers to resort to safer alternatives such as glucosamine.
“Glucosamine is an amino sugar, which is used by the body to produce lipids and proteins,” said Divine Bounty spokesperson, Melissa Scott
Studies reveal that glucosamine deficiency could potentially trigger the onset of osteoarthritis. Deficiency often develops when the body becomes genetically unable to produce sufficient amounts of glucosamine. If this is indeed true, then compensating the loss could possibly help in the treatment of arthritis.
In one study, it was found that 1,000 to 1,500 milligrams of glucosamine every day could help individuals with osteoarthritis. It is thought to reduce pain and swelling in a span of four to six weeks.
Lack of glucosamine affects the ability of the human body to produce proteins, and this is why the appearance of fingernail could indicate arthritis risk.
Glucosamine is also a natural ingredient, and thus, its use is not associated with side effects. Some of the most reliable glucosamine supplements contain methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), which is thought to help fight arthritis pain and inflammation (www.amazon.com/vegetarian-glucosamine-msm/dp/B0126ZF0B0).
