Product name:Chondroitin sulfate
Product description:Chondroitin sulfate is a sulfated
glycosaminoglycan (GAG) composed of a chain of alternating sugars
(N-acetylgalactosamine and glucuronic acid). It is usually found
attached to proteins as part of a proteoglycan. A chondroitin chain
can have over **0 individual sugars, each of which can be sulfated
in variable positions and quantities. Chondroitin sulfate is an
important structural component of cartilage and provides much of
its resistance to compression. Along with glucosamine, chondroitin
sulfate has become a widely used dietary supplement for treatment
of osteoarthritis.
