Lubrication
The natural lubricant for the joints is the synovial fluid. The synovial fluid is a viscous fluid, with the consistency of egg white, which is found in the cavities of the synovial joints.
The main role of the synovial fluid is to reduce friction between the elements of a joint during movement. Another function of the synovial fluid is the absorption and damping of shocks, its consistency becoming denser under pressure.
The synovial fluid transports nutrients and residues, providing oxygen and nutrients and removing carbon dioxide and metabolic debris from cartilage chondrocytes.
ProHumano+ ArtroDinamic supports cartilage metabolism and increases the degree of joint lubrication. One sachet combines 100 mg of hyaluronic acid and 500 mg of vegetable D-glucosamine to promote the assimilation of hyaluronic acid in the body.

Osteoarthritis is the most common chronic joint condition. It is a degenerative condition that manifests mainly in the elderly, but it can also appear as a result of a joint injury or infection.
Osteoarthritis (also called arthritis) can affect any joint. However, the most commonly affected areas of the body are the joints that support more weight, such as the joints of the knee, hip, and spine, but also the hands (finger joints).
