Overview of Chondroitin Sulfate and Cartilage Protection Chondroitin sulfate does not regrow lost cartilage. No oral supplement or current non-surgical therapy has demonstrated cartilage regeneration in humans. However, clinical evidence supports a protective role: pharmaceutical-grade CS at 800–1,200 mg/day has been associated with reduced cartilage loss and slowed joint space narrowing in mild-to-moderate knee osteoarthritis over 2-year studies. CS acts through anti-catabolic, pro-anabolic, and anti-apoptotic mechanisms, though these are primarily established in vitro. Imaging studies show slowing of degradation, not increased thickness. Response varies; onset takes 8–12 weeks. Product quality is a critical variable; pharmaceutical-grade material with verified purity and molecular weight is distinct from many supplement-grade products. CS is adjunctive to exercise and weight management, not a replacement.
