Celadrin Complex with Glucosamine
Celadrin® is a unique formulation of esterified (stable) fatty acids that has been shown to reduce certain effects related to pronounced inflammatory processes that can occur in the body. Being a complex molecule consisting of various fatty acids, it is able to penetrate cell membranes, which enhances membrane permeability and cell-to-cell signaling. In doing so, Celadrin® may reduce the level of inflammatory components of the immune system from binding to cells and thus causing occasional inflammation in different parts of the body.
Research has shown that Celadrin® can have an impact on improving the range of motion in the joints. A placebocontrolled trial conducted in 2002 showed that those individuals taking a complex containing Celadrin® for 2months had a significant improvement in knee flexion (ability to bend the knee) over those taking a placebo.
Another study conducted on Celadrin® published in 2004 concluded that treatment “significantly increased physical performance (as measured by a variety of orthopedic tests)” in patients with compromised knee mobility. The study found that the subjects given Celadrin® showed improvement in their ability to climb stairs, rise from a chair and walk, along with an improved sense of balance, strength and endurance.
