Glucosamine & Joint Relief

Osteoarthritis (breakdown of joint cushioning cartilage) is the most common form of arthritis that affects millions of people both young and old around the world every day.

The good news that other than trying to remain active, there is growing and promising evidence that taking the natural supplement glucosamine may reduce pain symptoms such as knee osteoarthritis and possibly slow its progression.

Other than being aware that most forms of glucosamine derive from shellfish, there are no known long term side effects of taking glucosamine but most health care providers often suggest a three month trial of glucosamine is advised first.
