What is chondroitin sulfate?

Chondroitin sulfate is a natural component found in the tissues that form cartilage, providing protection to the joints. There are also other cartilage-based structures in our body, such as the nose, ears, or larynx.

Over the years, cartilage, which has always been a strong and flexible structure, deteriorates, losing its cushioning capacity and causing wear that we mainly notice through joint discomfort.

What is chondroitin sulfate used for?

Chondroitin sulfate is a compound that, at a metabolic level, provides mechanical and elastic properties to the cartilage surrounding the joints, offering resistance to compression.

Its functions in the body may be structural, regulatory, or both.

• Structural function

  Chondroitin is the main component of cartilage and, due to its structure, gives it the ability to retain water and therefore its characteristic resistance to compression. At a structural level, it is also part of tissues such as blood vessels, skin, nose, ears and, at the joint level, cartilage, ligaments and tendons.

• Regulatory function

  Thanks to its ability to interact with other molecules, chondroitin can regulate a variety of cellular activities. Among them, it has been shown to interact with enzymes that degrade cartilage, and to participate in the synthesis of collagen and hyaluronic acid, both key compounds in preserving joint health.

Why buy Anastore Chondroitin Sulfate?

Formulated without synthetic excipients

Anastore chondroitin sulfate, also known as chondroitin sulphate, is formulated without synthetic excipients. It is chondroitin sulfate encapsulated in vegetable capsules, using a small amount of rice starch to aid preservation.

Purity above 90%

The chondroitin sulfate sold by Anastore guarantees a purity above 90%, a symbol of quality assurance. This high degree of purity is obtained thanks to rigorous processing that results in a homogeneous and safe product.

Easy intake and digestion

Our capsules are very easy to swallow, unlike other products that can be found on the market. They are soft and light. In addition, stomach discomfort is very unlikely to occur when consumed, always following the instructions for use.

Responsible consumption

Anastore capsules are designed to provide a sufficient amount of chondroitin sulfate without exceeding doses considered pharmacological, defined as at least 1000 mg per dose. When a food supplement offers this amount per dose, caution is advised, as it exceeds the recommendations of major European countries.

With Anastore chondroitin sulfate capsules, 400 mg are taken daily in a single capsule. This dose is perfect for combining the product with our Vegetable Glucosamine capsules or our Pro Joints, creating a perfect blend.

Marine origin

Marine-origin chondroitin sulfate is currently the best chondroitin on the market. Its marine origin ensures that our capsules have a more homogeneous, purer and more bioactive composition.

Is synthetic chondroitin better or animal-derived chondroitin?

Both synthetic and animal-derived chondroitin are absorbed in a similar way by the body, but there are nuances.

Animal-derived chondroitin has a more natural and complete composition, meaning a broader bioactive profile. In contrast, synthetic chondroitin does not have the ability to offer the natural variability provided by animal-derived sources, even though at first glance it may appear to be a purer product.

Being animal-derived, there are differences between marine and bovine sources. Below we explain why marine origin, like the one used in our capsules, is better.

Marine origin guarantees a product with a minimum purity of 90%, free from GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms), without contaminants from other animals, non-irradiated and free of nanoparticles.

At Anastore, we have selected the leading manufacturer of marine-origin chondroitin, produced in the United States in a laboratory that complies with Good Manufacturing Practices, using species such as American monkfish, Leucoraja ocellata and dogfish, among others.

Benefits of marine-origin chondroitin sulfate

Marine chondroitin sulfate offers multiple advantages over synthetic or bovine-origin chondroitin.

The main advantage is its more homogeneous composition and easier standardization. In addition, since it comes from fish, there is a lower risk of biological contamination, whether from antibiotic use, pathogens or zoonoses (diseases transmitted from vertebrate animals to humans).

The sulfation profile should also be highlighted, that is, the proportion of chondroitin-6-sulfate, which is higher in marine-origin chondroitins. This compound has been the subject of numerous studies, as it is associated with better absorption and interaction capacity of chondroitin, in other words, its ability to perform both structural and regulatory functions.

How to take Chondroitin Sulfate

You should take one capsule of Chondroitin Sulfate daily with a glass of water, preferably away from meals to avoid stomach discomfort. We recommend maintaining daily consumption for at least 6–8 weeks.

Contraindications of chondroitin sulfate

Chondroitin sulfate is a safe food supplement, provided that the labeled dosage and usage precautions are always respected.

Which other food supplements can chondroitin sulfate be combined with?

Our Chondroitin Sulfate can be combined with multiple food supplements without presenting interactions, thus obtaining maximum benefit in specific cases.

With Glucosamine, it is the perfect combination

Glucosamine HCL 500 mg / 60 capsules 17,90 € Temporarily Out Of Stock

The combination of Chondroitin Sulfate with Glucosamine is a synergy widely used and recommended by many experts. Its purity and plant-based origin make it stand out above other options.

Bone health

It should also be noted that this supplement can be used in combination with supplements aimed at bone health, such as our vegan Vitamin D3 capsules or our calcium citrate with vitamin D3 tablets, which provide essential nutrients that contribute to the maintenance of normal bones¹.

Marine magnesium 341 mg / 60 capsules 19,00 € Add to basket

Finally, mention should be made of the combination with our Marine Magnesium, another key nutrient for bone health with many beneficial properties, notably helping to reduce tiredness and fatigue¹. With just 2 capsules per day, you can obtain 100% of the daily recommended intake of magnesium in the form of magnesium oxide.

When selecting a quality chondroitin sulfate, you should assess its purity, the origin of the raw material and the recommended dosages.

At Anastore, we started selling this product over 15 years ago and have never changed our formula, could that be for a reason?
