Chondroitin is a dietary supplement commonly used to support joint health. It is a natural component of cartilage that helps maintain its elasticity and strength, primarily used in the treatment of osteoarthritis.
Chondroitin works by reducing cartilage breakdown and stimulating its regeneration. It may also have a mild anti-inflammatory effect, helping to reduce pain and improve joint mobility. It is often combined with glucosamine in joint health supplements.
Side effects are rare but may include nausea, stomach discomfort, or allergic reactions. It is contraindicated in individuals with allergies to animal-derived products (as it is sourced from fish or bovine cartilage) and should be used cautiously in patients with bleeding disorders.
