CALCIUM+CALCIUM CITRATE+COLLAGEN+GLUCOSAMINE+METHYLSULFONYLMETHANE
About
CALCIUM+CALCIUM CITRATE+COLLAGEN+GLUCOSAMINE+METHYLSULFONYLMETHANE belongs to the class of nutritional supplements, primarily used to treat inflammation and injuries in knee and joints, particularly in auto-immune conditions like osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease in which the two ends of the joints come together due to the breakdown of a protective covering of cartilage. Due to the absence of this protective covering, the joints rub against each other, leading to pain and stiffness.
CALCIUM+CALCIUM CITRATE+COLLAGEN+GLUCOSAMINE+METHYLSULFONYLMETHANE is a combination of Calcium, Calcium citrate, Collagen, Glucosamine, and Methylsulfonylmethane. Calcium and Calcium citrate are minerals that prevent or treat a calcium deficiency. It provides essential nutrients to maintain bone formation and maintenance. Collagen helps in the regeneration of cartilage, thereby providing strength to the bones and improving the joint's flexibility. Glucosamine lubricates the joints and improves flexibility and movement. Methylsulfonylmethane is a supplement that decreases inflammation in the joints and restores flexibility by collagen production.

Disease/Condition Glossary
Osteoarthritis: It is a degenerative joint disease in which the two ends of the joints come together due to the breakdown of a protective covering of cartilage. Due to the absence of this protective covering, the joints rub against each other, leading to pain and stiffness. Symptoms of osteoarthritis include pain, stiffness, inflammation, and tenderness. The main reason for osteoarthritis is age; the older you are, the more likely you could get osteoarthritis, thus known as degenerative disease, meaning that the joints wear out as a person ages. Other reasons include a past injury such as torn cartilage, dislocated joints, and ligament injuries.
