Abstract
The analysis of data from domestic and foreign literature devoted to the nutritional aspects of osteoarthritis prevention has been carried out. The world experience in the use of pharmacornutrients – collagen, chondroitin sulfate as monotherapy and in combination with other methods is summarized on this topic. The search was conducted using the electronic databases Pubmed, MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, eLibrary for the period from 1999 to 2024. For the search, we used keywords and their combinations: “collagen”, “chondroitin sulfate”, “treatment of osteoarthritis”, “prevention of osteoarthritis”. According to the results of the study, pharmaconutrients containing collagen or chondroitin sulfate have a positive effect on the prognosis of patients suffering from osteoarthritis, as well as improve their quality of life.
Keywords: collagen, chondroitin sulfate, osteoarthritis treatment, osteoarthritis preventions
