Glucosamine is a nutritional supplement that can stimulate specific components of your cartilage to thrive and reproduce. Glucosamine has been used for decades in Europe for the treatment of arthritis with favorable results. Glucosamine has also been used for many years by veterinarians to treat arthritis in dogs, horses and other pets. It became popular in the United States for humans in the mid nineties after Jane Brody, a prominent New York Times Columnist, wrote about its benefits for her dog. The interest exploded after the book "The Arthritis Cure" by Jason Theodosakis hit the best seller list in 1997. When shopping for glucosamine, please keep in mind that only "glucosamine sulfate" has had the scientific studies to back its efficacy (the "HCl" forms have very few scientific studies behind them.) Also, consider a product with MSM for its anti-inflammatory capabilities. Finally, keep in mind that not all glucosamines are created equal - many are loaded with impurities that limit their power. Our JointBuilder is one of the few brands that has been independently tested to contain pure glucosamine sulfate. Glucosamine taken orally goes to all the joints in your body. We have found it to be very useful in providing significant pain relief for people with arthritis of the knee, hip, shoulder, elbow, ankle, hands, and back. We have seen many cases where people have been able to stop taking prescription drugs (such as Motrin, Naprosyn) which have significantly higher side-effects. Click below to learn more.
