Joint cartilage
Joint cartilage is a smooth, viscous, and elastic tissue designed to support and distribute weight in the joints. This tissue ensures shock absorption and frictionless movement. For the proper functioning of the joint, an optimal composition of the cartilage and of the synovial fluid is necessary.
Over time, the joint cartilage undergoes a natural aging and degeneration process. The symptoms of cartilage injuries are pain and inflammation, swelling due to fluid accumulation in the joint or joint blockages.
One sachet of ProHumano+ ArtroDinamic supports cartilage metabolism through a combination of 500 mg of hydrolyzed collagen, 500 mg of vegetable D-glucosamine and 100 mg of hyaluronic acid.
