Building blocks for articular cartilage.
Glucosamine sulphate and chondroitin sulphate are natural, highly concentrated amino sugars that can be synthesized from food by healthy and youthful bodies and which are important as basic building blocks for articular cartilage, tendons, ligaments and bone structures, but also for connective tissue and artery walls.
As you get older, it becomes more and more difficult to provide the body with sufficient quantities of these substances.
- Osteoarthritis (wear and tear, degeneration of the joint cartilage) is not curable!
- With Vita Mobility Complex® joint pain can be treated naturally.
- With the highly effective active ingredients, the mobility of the joints can be maintained in case of arthrosis.

Natural building materials for joint cartilage
chondroitin sulphate + glucosamine sulphate
The increasing ageing of the population has its price:
Far more than half of the over-sixties suffer from painful wear and degeneration of the joint cartilage (arthrosis). And the trend is rising.
Mode of action:
Various clinical studies in the USA and Europe have shown that glucosamine and chondroitin sulphate not only have decongestant and pain-relieving properties for joint problems, but can also restore already damaged cartilage and tendon tissue.
The bioactive form of glucosamine is glucosamine sulphate, which improves synovial viscosity and thus "joint lubrication". It also stimulates anabolic processes in the articular cartilage, relieves pain in the long term and can counteract joint space narrowing.
Chondroitin is also only bioavailable in sulphated form as chondroitin sulphate. Chondroitin sulphate is characterised by its high water-binding capacity in cartilage tissue. Chondroitin sulphate should be taken in a dosage of at least 500 mg per day.
Manganese is an indispensable trace element that is associated with bone growth and the building of proteins, among other things. It is also important for the body's own glucosaminoglucan production.
Sulphur serves as a cementing substance in connective and supporting tissue, it increases water-binding capacity and is important for collagen synthesis. Sulphate ions inhibit cartilage-degrading enzymes.
A joint cure with these nutrients should last at least 3 to 4 months.
The effect of these cartilage protectors can be additionally supplemented by highly concentrated fish oil omega-3 fatty acids and natural vitamin E (D-alpha-tocopherol).
Structural modification in osteoarthritis
New long-term clinical studies with glucosamine sulphate for symptom and structural modification (disease modification) in osteoarthritis
- In a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, long-term clinical study (3 years), glucosamine sulphate was shown to alleviate the symptoms of gonarthrosis and prevent structural changes in the knee joint, thereby delaying the progression of gonarthrosis.
Register JY et al, Lancet 2001; 357: 251-56.
- A second, similarly designed published study confirmed these results.
Pavelka K et al, Arch Intern Med 2002; 162: 2113-23.
WOMAC* indices:
Total, pain, function, stiffness.
Primary efficacy parameters
- Symptom modification
WOMAC index (a validated index composed of pain, stiffness, and physical function for gonarthrosis);
Register JY et al, Lancet 2001; 357: 251-56.
- After completion of 3 months of treatment with glucosamine sulphate or with glucosamine sulphate in combination with NSAIDs, improvement of symptoms lasts for a long time (at least 2 months). In contrast, the benefit of NSAIDs diminishes rapidly after treatment is discontinued.
WOMAC = Western Ontario and Mc Master Universities-Arthrosis-index, a score used to evaluate pain, stiffness, and joint function.

Tolerability:
Tolerability of glucosamine is not different from placebo, but is significantly better than conventional NSAIDs. The combination of glucosamine sulphate with NSAIDs does not protect against the side effects of NSAIDs, although better treatment compliance can be achieved.
Register JY et al, Lancet 2001 ; 357: 251-56.
Comparison of chodroprotectants to classical NSAIDs:
Glucosamine sulphate versus lbuprofen (Müller-Fassbender 1994).
- Randomized, double-blind study in 200 subjects with knee joint osteoarthritis: three times daily oral administration of 500 mg GS versus 400 mg lbuprofen for 4 weeks reduced the Lequesne-index from an initial 16 points to 10. There was no difference between the GS and lbuprofen groups. In contrast to the GS group, 35% of the lbuprofen group suffered from gastrointestinal side effects.
Glucosamine sulphate vs paracetamol (acetaminophen) (Herrero 2005).
- European study conducted in Spain and Portugal: 318 patients with knee osteoarthritis received either 1500 mg glucosamine sulphate, 3 x 1000 mg acetaminophen (Paracetamol) or placebo. After six months of study, glucosamine sulphate was found to be even more effective than the analgesic. Glucosamine sulphate also improved the patients' mobility.
Chondroitin sulphate vs diclofenac (Morreale P. et al, 1996)
- Randomized controlled trial of 146 patients with knee joint osteoarthritis. Compared to diclofenac-Na (3 x 50 mg), chondroitin sulphate (3 x 400 mg) showed an initially slower analgesic effect, but this clearly shifted in favour of chondroitin over the course of months and persisted significantly longer after cessation.
Glucosamine + chondroitin sulphate vs celecoxib (Clegg et al. 2006).
- Randomized double-blind study, patients with knee osteoarthritis, moderate to severe pain (WOMAC pain score 301-400), effect of combination glucosamine and chondroitin sulphate (1500mg resp. 1200 mg) comparable to celecoxib (200mg).
Why sulpha?
Recent publications arguing for the sulphated form of glucosamine:
Om-Journal of Orthomol. Med. 2007; 1:1, 6-10, Danesch. U.:
Sulphur is an important component for connective tissue stability.
… that proteoglycan biosynthesis depends on sulfur content.
… no efficacy of glucosamine in the hydrochloride form ...
