Glucosamine HCl:
Glucosamine is a key precursor for cartilage matrix
formation. Glucosamine in
OSTEOKOM
forte®, derived from crustaceae
skin/shell extraction (shrimps, crabs, lobsters,
etc) which through deproteinization and decalciumization
becomes chitin (?-(1- ->4)-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-?-D-glucose),
which is then hydrolyzed to glucosamine (2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucose).
Chondroitin Sulfate: Chondroitin
sulfate is derived from shark’s cartilage
extraction. The mode of action is mainly by
inhibiting THE enzymes that could damage the
cartilage matrix.
After oral administration, glucosamine HCl and
chondroitin sulfate are well dissolved in the
gaster (stomach) to an active glucosamine and
chondroitin, which is then rapidly absorbed
by the body (through gastrointestinal tract,
followed by distribution by the blood to required
body parts (the joints).
MSM ( Methyl sulphonyl methane ):
Methyl sulphonyl methane is a natural sulfur-containing
substance present in food and in human body.
It also can be chemically synthesis. It offers
a natural way to reduce pain & inflammation.
It provides major pain relief through the following
actions:
• The inhibition of pain impulse along
nerve fibers
• Lessening of inflammation
• Increasing of blood supply
• Reduction of muscle spasm
• And Softening of scar tissue
Combination of glucosamine HCl, chondroitin
sulfate and MSM (methyl sulphonyl methane) in
OSTEOKOM forte®
works synergistically.
Manganese, Magnesium, Zinc & Selenium:
Components required in bone formation, musculoskeletal
and joint cartilage metabolism reaction.
