They reported that the newly-released medication &#8211; made of five different herbs from traditional Chinese medicine &#8211; suppressed inflammatory cytokines, toned down the harsh immune response, prevented the loss of articular cartilage, and protected the articular surface.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>  The trial was supported by Dongshin University. Its results were published in the journal BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>  Rats were injected with collagenase. Over the next few days, they developed symptoms of osteoarthritis.<br \/>\n  Seven days later, the rats received either placebo, the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) indomethacin, the new anti-arthritis herbal medicine Joins, or a dose (50, 100, and 200 milligrams per kilogram) of ChondroT, respectively. All groups were treated for five straight days.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>  Blood and cartilage tissue samples were taken from the animals. The samples were analyzed using various tests for symptoms of arthritis.<br \/>\n  The 50, 100, and 200 mg\/kg dose were able to reduce the amount of IL-6 and aspartate aminotransferase in the blood. However, only the 100 and 200 mg\/kg doses of ChondroT decreased the levels of albumin, TNF-&#945; and IL-1&#946; pro-inflammatories, lymphocytes, and white blood cells.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>  Furthermore, the 100 and 200 mg\/kg dosages of ChondroT were able to preserve the synovial tissue and cartilage in the knee joint from getting damaged by inflammation.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>  The researchers concluded that ChondroT could serve as a new means of stopping the onset of osteoarthritis and protecting joints, especially since it matched the effectiveness of indomethacin without exhibiting the side effects of the NSAID.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>    <strong>yogaesoteric<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>    <strong>October 15, 2018&#160;<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new Korean trial tested the efficacy of ChondroT on rats suffering from collagenase-induced osteoarthritis.
